🌫️ Hey, OGCommunity! Time for some hot news:
Silent Hill 2 has returned in a new form, but its initial reveal was rocky. Trailers were heavily criticized, with early previews calling the animations and combat clunky and not true to the original. People were ready to label it a failure. However, with new trailers and gameplay showcases, the mood shifted, and now fans are saying it feels like the Silent Hill they know and love.
Today, reviews are in, and it seems the game has redeemed itself. Critics praise the remake for maintaining the original atmosphere while improving the graphics, sound, and combat. With a score of 87 on Metacritic, many agree that it strikes a solid balance between old and new.
The game isn’t perfect, and some flaws remain, but overall, the positives far outweigh the negatives. You can check it out yourself, as the official release on PC and PlayStation is today.
