Review:- Silent Hill Downpour [newbreview.com]

Take a spoonful of insanity, a bag full of traumatic childhoods, the nightmares of many a mental patient, and vigorously stir in an occult bowl filled with blood. And what do you get? A creation that looks a lot like Silent Hill...

I got a copy of this in the mail today but I haven't had a chance to play it yet. I spent some time playing the demo at Eurogamer last year and I thought it was decent enough. Shame to read that they haven't ironed out all of the bug though.

-i just got mine too, i'm gonna try it out this afternoon! :)

Raxous4431d ago

Agreed, an opportunity missed? Or did they feel that the bugs are part of it's "charm" / "experience"?
That's what I'd be going for if I were their marketing department! ;-) (A bit like they did with Halo CE; "A faithful rendition of the original experience with a visual upgrade and achievements added"!) ;-)

The opening is pretty good, but I've heard that it goes downhill towards the end... still I look forward to finding out for myself!

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.

bfrye26197d 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_drake197d 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.

CrimsonWing69196d ago

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

bfrye26196d ago

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

PS3 Prices Have Officially Exploded (and they’re not done)

The Ghetto Gamer has been predicting and tracking PS3 prices over the past year. The last few months have seen a massive spike in the pricing of PS3 games, and it may be too late to pick up some of the more rare and hard-to-find ones at a reasonable price. Some of these are nuts.
