Gaming Silent Hill

[Reflection]

This game scared the hell out of me, I can hardly play the game anymore. Does anyone have Silent Hill 2? And is it any good?

I have both games and I love them...I prefer the first once since the second isn't really anything really innovative except some new concepts that are in the mechanics of Silent Hill (storywise) and the graphics. I think you'll enjoy the second one because it carrys on more realism under the PS2 or X-box.

For some reason, the stores here in the UK have taken Silent Hill 2 of the shelves. I can't seem to find the game anywhere. ;/

Bah...that's a shame...

I admit the abstract images and ideas are very disturbing in a way...but there are worse games. Hopefully you can find it in the used section or online?

I bought Silent Hill 2 randomly one day. A store by my house got some copies in earlier than I expected, so I grabbed it.

I liked the first Silent Hill, but I never actually got around to beating it. With Silent Hill 2 I played the hell out of it until I finished, and didn't even think about playing anything else. I liked it that much. It's reasonably short, but the game has incredible atmosphere.

The only annoying aspect really is having to run about an entire city, with only a few location you can actually go into.

Hope you find it somewhere... Around my house every store pretty much clearanced it out lol.

The game [I]bored[/I] the hell out of me, lol.

I know that I'm in the minority here, but I found the game to be too slow and cumbersome. Navigating the various complexes were a pain, due to the control interface and bleak lighting.

I know that the dim visuals were supposed to induce fear and create tension, but it just wasn't my style.

Silent Hill 2 seemed like a fine game overall, but I just couldn't get into it. The monster designs themselves didn't impress me, but their actions were really creepy.

It's a shame that I never felt the urge to learn to like this one.

I have both too. But the second one was just boring. I didn't bother to complete it. :p

Silent Hill... ehh... Try playing that at night by yourself in a detatched room with all the windows open. I haven't played 2 yet, but I want to.

Silent Hill just makes you jump and leaves your palms sweaty.

I've stopped playing Alone In The Dark also for the Playstation. Why was is released on the Playstation 2 also?

To be honest, I absolutely hated Silent Hill 2. The original was a lot better, and scarier imo. Although I wish that they would have concentrated more on the first (as in storyline wise) instead of making two completely different games. The third one seems like it could be the best of the series, so that's a game I'm looking forward to.

I always wanted to get the game but I could never come up with the money for it. It always looked like an awsome game. I wish I wasn't broke.
