I've been a Silent Hill fan since the first game and I never, ever thought that a brilliant franchise like this could end this badly. Shattered Memories is a pointless and utterly boring game not worth even if you are a dedicated fan. I won't waste my time or the reader's going into much detail, but suffice to say in this game nothing happens. You just have to run from a location to another and look around for keys and souvenirs, alwas not very far and lazily pointed out by the game itsel with a white arrow. The run-for-your-life sequences are so frustrating that you dread them, but for the wrong reason. Using a camera to photograph invisible things has already been done (in a better way I should say) in Fatal Frame, so nothing new here. The game is so boring that you can't be bothered to even pay some attention to the storyline, let alone the characters. The only noteworthy point is the music, but despite being better than Silent Hill Homecoming, is not remotely on par with the earlier works of Mr. Yamaoka. Probably the musician himself was not very happy to waste time on a piece of crap like this. The only merit of this game is to make look better the previous two western-made chapters (Origins and the awful-but-not-so-much-now-that-SM-is-out Homecoming). Shattered Memories is a joke. And a bad one. Konami and climax decided that Silent Hill fans don't deserve any quality. Pity, I won't buy any other future SH game and people should really stay away from this franchise.
