Silent Hill: Downpour Review [Capsule Computers]

Capsule Computers writes:

Whenever a survival horror hears the name Silent Hill they immediately remember two things. First they will think of how much they loved the original two titles, Silent Hill and Silent Hill 2 and then they will think about how much they wish the rest of the series would have just followed suit. Over the years fans of Konami’s Silent Hill franchise have scrutinized nearly every single release since the original titles and picked it apart because it didn’t quite live up to the name of the originals.

However Konami has stepped into 2012 with a brand new Silent Hill game, one that may rise to the greatness fans once expected from the series… Silent Hill Downpour.

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.

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.

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.

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

bfrye26938d ago

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