I first discovered Silent Hill one day when I was on YouTube and somehow stumbled upon a few songs from the Soundtrack, I can't remember if it was "Tears of Pain..." or "Never Forgive Me, Never Forget Me", but I suppose it doesn't matter now. Anyways, the first game I played was "Silent Hill: Downpour", which I suppose wasn't a letdown, but also wasn't that good, it was just so-so. So when I found out that there was an HD Collection containing Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill 3, I knew I had to buy it. I don't currently own a Play Station (any of the models) although I did have one awhile back, but that is long gone, so getting the HD Collection for the Xbox 360 seemed way more budget friendly than investing in a new system, and games.
I know a lot of people complain about the game being glitchy, and buggy but I've owned this game for almost two years now, and I have not experienced any of the problems that other people in the reviews and comments have faced.I admit that reading some of the comments made me nervous to buy the game, but I still bought it, and decided that if it was buggy or glitchy, I would cut my losses and just toss the game. But I have never heard any audio problems, or seen the game glitch in any way where I am seeing unfinished landscapes or backgrounds, and neither have I experienced the voice audios being off from the games graphics. The resolution is perfect for my TV, and does not look pixilated, blurry, or distorted. I'm actually wondering if many of the bad reviews left on the game are from Die-Hard original fans, who refuse to give the HD collection a chance, however, just because I haven't had a bad experience with this game yet, doesn't mean maybe someone else didn't.
I read one review where the person stated that you cannot choose from the new voice recordings or the old ones, and that is false, well at least half-false. In Silent Hill 2 you can choose from the original voice actors or the new voice actors. I've only ever played it with the original voice actors, so that it adds to the effect. However, in Silent Hill 3, it does not give you the option to pick, and only has the new voice actors.
As for the actual game play, I love it. It takes awhile to get used to the controls for the game, but when you have them down, it's a breeze. I find that the puzzles in the games are fun to solve, and at times a bit challenging which just adds to the game for me. The monsters are quite creepy, and at times, downright grotesque. All of this weaved together with the storylines creates an ambient game unlike any other. The characters, along with their struggles and story, soon become unforgettable.
Just please be assured, this game is bloody, gory, and definitely NOT FOR KIDS!!!
