Silent Hill 2 Review - IGN

Silent Hill 2 is a great way to visit – or revisit – one of the most dread-inducing destinations in the history of survival horror.

HollowIchigo25221d ago

Seems like the reviewer docked 2 points just because the game isn't short? it reads like a 10/10 game except he wanted it to be 8-10 hours long similar to the original instead of the 16-18 hours of game content we got.

That can be a perfectly valid criticism too. To me, that suggests the remake's pacing is really protracted compared to the original.

Poor IGN employee was forced to play 8 hours longer and spend less time doing reviews of some Star Wars series episodes

FPS_D3TH221d ago

That’s actually pretty fair. Silent hill 4 the room got knocked years ago for basically retreading the same places and felt a bit bloated in the 2nd half. Most horror games don’t last all that long either. I’ll wait to judge myself but if that’s the only criticism it’s still a great looking game

CosmicTurtle221d ago

It is because the second half is really bad in The Room. The first part is great.

repsahj220d ago (Edited 220d ago )

Don't worry. The more credible IGN branch (IGN Japan) gave it a perfect 10/10.

complaining that a game is longer than the OG is such an odd flex to me.

like "too much water" in a sea themed world comes to mind.

I kind of wish they did. Like I’d love if they could take him and what was established and crank the scares up to 11 with him.

Silent Hill 1 first!
I think they should give castlevania and mgs rising to platinum games

RaidenBlack77d ago

Or a new original Silent Hill entry and then the Silent Hill 1 Remake?
you know going alternatively ... by that we get both new entries as well as remakes

Terry_B77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

A remake of the first Silent Hill would be great. Let a team take Castlevania that is known for experiences with either Metroidvania games or 3D Combat.

I think they still have a good relationship with Mercury Steam... I quite enjoyed their Lord of Shadows games in the franchise. They would be a good one to take on the next CV game as they have the experience you mentioned.

Terry_B77d ago

I think Mercury Steam is actually working on another Metroid game right now :-)

RaidenBlack77d ago

MercurySteam is working on their own ARPG project, to be revealed soon.

VersusDMC77d ago

Either remake Silent hill 1, 3 or a new silent hill game would be great. After Silent Hill 2 (third favorite game last year) i trust that studio now and am anticipating Cronos: The New Dawn.

MehmetAlperTR77d ago

Please make SH1 remake.. Not SH3...
