Silent Hill 2 Reviews
If we look back at the very first moments when the Silent Hill remake was shown to the public, Konami and Bloober Team's gamble seemed doomed from the start. However, like in the most traditional of redemption stories, the Polish team has delivered one of the best horror experiences of recent years, while also proving to everyone that creating a remake 'faithful to the original work' is indeed possible. Silent Hill 2 is a love letter to the 2001 title, able to captivate new generations while offering just the right amount of novelty to those who adored the original version released for PlayStation 2

It wasn't easy, and after facing a lot of uncertainty and criticism months before its release, Bloober Team has delivered a fantastic remake of a definite horror classic in Silent Hill 2 Remake. The pressure to overcome the odds must have been crippling, but the team has successfully captured the soul of the original and has modernized it with care, resulting in a must-play entry for the series that has been long dormant. From the stunning visuals to the haunting atmosphere and even the immersive audio design, the Silent Hill 2 Remake is a definite addition to gaming libraries everywhere, as its psychological spin on the genre is a testament to the legacy it left behind.
The story and character models are something I can live with. Unless someone is a purist, then the game will certainly make them lose interest very quickly. In my opinion, however, the biggest sins of Silent Hill 2 are the extensive exploration, which eventually becomes tiresome, and the untapped potential of combat.
