great cover btw

MaxXAttaxX4618d ago

Cause they want more money. Why else.

BrightFalls764618d ago

Unfortunately the voice acting is anything but elegant. I'll pass.

Ser4618d ago

You act as if the original games had magnificent voice acting.

BrightFalls764618d ago

Not at all, I act as if they really messed up what was already a well established series because they were too stubborn to support the cast that made the original the hit that it was.

jc485734618d ago

or maybe the actor was asking for too much money?

BubbleSniper4618d ago

compared to these voice actors the originals sound like oscar winners.

NarooN4618d ago

How did they mess up the entire series by remastering two old-ass games and changing the voice acting? It's not even that big of a fucking deal, it's not like these characters were in every game of the series or anything. SH3 at least had actual good voice acting in it. SH4 was pretty cringe-worthy as well. Origins and onward had pretty good acting.

Alos884618d ago

Nice. I was expecting it to be just the two original covers put next to each other.

Quagmire4618d ago

Who knew Konami had it in them lol

Acquiescence4618d ago

Looks even more suave than Rico Suave, and Rico Suave was pretty darn suave.

SICK! Probably will buy because of the art. I am a sucker for that crap.

Ethereal4618d ago

Yea I know. The voice overs are ehh, I am hoping they see the fans displeasure and add an option to choose which one they want.

tack1294618d ago

I'd wait for reviews, they will determine if the new VAs are REALLY that godawful or if the issue was actually overblown.

gaden_malak4617d ago

The original voices were god awful, it's not as if they are swapping the Three Tenors with Rebecca Black.

I mostly disagree with Downpour's position. Yeah, the game is not amazing by any stretch of the imagination but is much better than the HD Collection and Homecoming. The main issue is the performance, but that was mitigated by the patches, especially on the PS3. Personally, I put it a little behind Origins and The Room.

Having Restless Dreams as a different entry from Silent Hill 2 is also a choice.

bfrye26176d ago

Normally, we would not consider it a different game (Restless Dreams), but since it had a very different critical reception and had new content, it was allowed. As for Downpour, I would agree, but since that one is subjective, we let him make his case for the placement.

gold_drake175d ago

silent hill 2 is definitely the best one out of those.

for me personally, the whole ritual/cult stuff was always so weird to me in all the other games.

CrimsonWing69175d ago

No disrespect but I put SH2 over 1. 1 is fantastic, but 2 took it all up a level.

bfrye26174d ago

We agree, that is why the writer put it in top place!

100% agree! SH2 is undoubtedly a stone cold classic.

gold_drake338d ago

i played a couple of months ago for the first time.

i agree that its a great survival game, but i think the minute u realise you can "kill" them, its takes alot of the initial fear out of it.
the same thing happened to me in Siren Blood Curse.

but its definitely one of the best games, when you start looking into the lore and the symbolism

1nsomniac338d ago

Never played it. I had moved on from PlayStation since then. So looking forward to the remake. Hope it’s not too cheesy tho.

P_Bomb337d ago

Pyramid Head or Red Pyramid. Which do you guys call him?

Pickledpepper337d ago

I've just brought the silent hill collection for the ps2 and absolutely loving it

Knushwood Butt337d ago

Nice.

I have the games, just no PS2.

Pickledpepper337d ago

I have a ps2 for sale and a n64 lol

how is it after the patches? Aren't there also more to come?

Amplitude724d ago (Edited 724d ago )

Did people not like the Mafia 2 remake? I got so into it. Thought it was amazing. Never played the original.

Some of these are fitting but I can't help but feel like the author just has nostalgia for the original Mafia 2 here. Dmc Collection on PS4 is fiiiiine its just a collection of PS2 games and the PS3 performance was not amazing. The point is to just have the PS2 games for a new gen of people. Crysis Remastered is also totally fine and has been patched and updated to death since launch. The original version essentially ran on one CPU core and they couldn't fix it let alone get that running on console/switch so they had good reason to do what they did to boost interest in Crysis before the Crysis 4 announcement

Lots of way worse remasters out there lol GTA, THPS HD, that Mario 3D All Stars trash, etc

jeenyus724d ago

That's the issue, you haven't played the original.
The new one is slightly better looking but it's bugged af by comparison.

monkey602724d ago

So in essence ... 2020 the year of bad remasters

Army_of_Darkness723d ago

Sounds like a case of quick cash grabs during the pandemic.
