- The Bottom Line:
- "Disappointing"
I got this game on day 1 and couldn't wait to play it. I really hated Silent Hill 4 and was hoping this game would come close to the greatness of SH2 and SH3, and at first it did. The atmosphere was excellent, very SH creepy. I liked the story and characters. Then the problems started. Maybe it's just me but the combat system was incredibly annoying. The problems start in the hotel with the needlers. After many playthroughs..to the point where all the fun was sucked out of the game...I finally got to the first boss. The boss was ok, but by the time I got into the sheriffs office for more annoying clumsy monster fighting..constant dying as you figure out which annoying a-x-b combo to use..I had had enough. The controls seemed sluggish and unresponsive. The monsters seem to get ample cheap hits. I miss the old SH where it was about the exploration, puzzles, story and creepiness, and not a monster slugfest with crappy
controls. So I started playing Dead Space...now thats a well designed horror game!!!

A true heir, lovingly crafted with the same psychological intensity as its predescessors

Violating some serious good game design principles

It's the black sheep of the Silent Hill family, but for what it does poorly, it does a fair amount exceptionally well.

It's old, it's clunky, so why am I in love with it?
