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.

HollowIchigo25597d 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.

coolbeans597d ago

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

MDTunkown597d ago

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

FPS_D3TH597d 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

CosmicTurtle596d ago

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

repsahj596d ago (Edited 596d 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.

Oh mah gawd say it ain’t so, say it ain’t so!

I didn’t have any issues playing SH2 on my PS5 pro.

Well, the Xbox series X is not a bad machine at all. Its everything surrounding it from the support to the marketing that is garbage. Its too bad, because sony has shown themselves to be quite anticonsumer when they dont have real competition. Unfortunately Microsoft shits on their own balls every 5 minutes. Nintendo plays their own game so is not real competition. Maybe the steam machines will keep Sony on their toes, but I doubt it. Again, thats a different target audience.

Reaper22_183d ago

The next gen xbox will be more than enough competition . All Sony did this gen was sell more consoles which was gonna happen regardless. The support, features and games are unmatched imo. Ps5 and ps5 pro still dont have features the series x has had since launch. As far as support i disagree. It has massive support and Microsoft games output has been superior this gen. But hey, I'm biased because I prefer the xbox. Just as you are biased for playstation.

pwnmaster3000183d ago

Xbox is competition?🤣🤣 🤣🤣
It’s over man.
It’s PlayStation, steam machine and Nintendo.

Bye Xbox it was fun but steam machine is here to replace you

Hypertension140182d ago (Edited 182d ago )

The dualsense? VR? Better and cheaper storage options?

You make it sound like the Xbox can do everything better, even the features that it doesn't have. To me, the dualsense is the most next gen feature about the current gen consoles. Quick resume is cool but it only saves you a few seconds while the dualsense makes entire games more immersive.

Better game output? You mean the multiplatform studios they acquired because nobody gives a shit about their original IPs anymore? Its not like it matters anyway, Xbox no longer has any exclusives.

@pwnmaster3000

Lol steam machine is not gonna sell.

Chevalier182d ago

All Sony did all generation was dominated Xbox. You can be a biased idiot, but, facts are facts. Playstation had more of everything overall, VR, more variety of games, better exclusives and controller too

“ Ps5 and ps5 pro still dont have features the series x has had since launch.“ your human brain is not very switched on 🤷🏻I can smell a jealous little bitch from a mile away

Sony Sony Sony. Crybaby. Anyone with half a brain cell knows why you swiping PlayStation. Nintendo and Microsoft have shown to be far more anti consumer than Sony. Could you be any more of a dense tool?

Reaper22_182d ago

I disagree with the "far more". All of them have the same goal and they aren't perfect. They all do things that piss off the consumer.

Reaper22_183d ago (Edited 183d ago )

Go xbox!🤘

CrimsonWing69183d ago

Wasn’t the Series X more powerful than the base PS5? It’s not a real shocker.
