by awoolcott awoolcott is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Games, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Oct 04 '01
Pros: Extremely scary & disturbing, Interesting story, a lot to do
Cons: Some feeling of not knowing what to do, story is still kinda convulted
For the record: Resident Evil never really has scared me.

For the record: Silent Hill 2 creeps me out like nothing before.

In 1999 Konami unleashed the original Silent Hill to the world, not to compete with Resident Evil, but to...

Get Terrified in Silent Hill 2 AKA How Kenshin Guy Got His Groove Back

by kenshin-guy , Oct 21 '01
Pros: Disgustingly Beautiful, Some of the most complicated-ly good sound ever. Great Plot
Cons: Well...It COULD be too scary for some.
"Fear.

Fear attracts the fearful.

The Strong, the Weak." - Darth Maul

Some of you may be wondering why I am quoting Darth Maul for an otherwise meaningless review of a video game. Well, to be honest, this quote directly...

Silent Hill 2, our sanctuary of memories...I will be waiting for you there.

Pros: Is This Game Good....?
Cons: Yes
2.5 weeks until RE
If you know me well, want to know to me, don't know me, don't care to know me, or even if you would rather kill yourself than know me, you'd know that I am very excited about RE for GC.(longest sentence ever) So, after...

Good, but Leaves Much to be Desired.

by LaughingTarget Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 04 '01
Pros: Graphics, gameplay, story.
Cons: Too short, not scary.
Silent Hill was the underdog back in 1999 when it decided to release the very same day as Final Fantasy 8. Without having to check to make sure, Silent Hill didn't get the attention it so deserved, especially compared to the unimpressive FF8. Well,...

I Stole a Playstation 2 Just To Play Silent Hill 2

by Horhay Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 07 '01
Pros: Everything: graphics, sound, story, gameplay; terrifying, multiple endings
Cons: some camera angles, lack of interaction with environments, thats about it
Story: SH2 isn’t a sequel to the original. The only thing that has stayed the same is the location. In SH2 you control James Sunderland. James received a letter from his wife, who died three years ago, telling him to meet her in the ...

As the tour of Silent Hill continues, you'll see a bloody monster on your right....

by ChromeKiller Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Oct 03 '01
Pros: Scary stuff.
Cons: The same old jerky gameplay.
Try and think hard about what makes you scared. I'm guessing there's more than just one thing that would blow your mind away. The dark can be scary. Sisters can be scary. Even failing a midterm exam can make your pimples pop, I bet. Those frightening ...

Scariest Thing You’ll Ever Experience In Your Life

by Rock_On Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Dec 22 '01
Pros: interesting story, scary
Cons: may be to disturbing for some
If you thought any of the Resident Evil games were scary, then you’re gonna have a heart attack during Silent Hill 2. Never have I played a game so scary that I’ve had nightmares about it at night.

Plot/Story

Scarily short, horrifically repetitive.

by reddragonflame , Apr 15 '06
Pros: Beatifully made. An obviously huge amount of effort had been poured in
Cons: Just.... too short, and not enough fun
Silent Hill is one of the biggest names in the survival-horror genre, right up next to Resident Evil. Even in the early days of the PS1 it was a well known and respected game. People went mad for it, because it was a change from the overused yet familiar ...

SH2 (a video game) will SCARE THE CRAP OUT OF YOU!

by JiggyJay Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 19 '02
Pros: everything except...
Cons: ...the camera angles, the controls, and the shortness of SH2.
Do you think you’re a man (or a woman)? You aren’t until you have played Silent Hill 2. This video game proves again to non-gamers that movies aren’t the only masterpieces in the world. A couple of games have proven better than movies (with Silent Hill...

Psychotic nightmare

by scigamer , Oct 01 '01
Pros: psychologically disturbing, Animation great sound, visuals,enviroments, use weapon while walking
Cons: tons of running around, items hard to see, puzzle slow progress
Eerie darkness surrounds you as the fog gets thicker and starts to swirl around almost as if it’s taken on a life of it’s own. You walk around searching around a deserved town that once was full of life by the lake by now filled with emptiness where...

Scary As Hell

by darrio , Jan 02 '02
Pros: storyline, sound effects, crisp graphics, bonus disc
Cons: a little too short, not for the faint hearted
In Silent Hill 2 you take control of James Sunderland, an average guy - a bit like the hero of Silent Hill on Playstation. The game opens with you looking over a foggy lake at the town of Silent Hill. You have nothing apart from a photo of your wife...

I have the fear: A TRUE horror game.

by psychosis , Apr 16 '02
Pros: Graphics, creepy atmosphere, great storyline, music.
Cons: Movement is a little clumsy at times, puzzles, while great, lower replay value. Short.
What strikes my fancy a bit more with the Silent Hill series than the better-recognized Resident Evil series is the way the game really gets down to your bones and creeps you out. While zombies chasing you down a ruined city block can certainly give you...
