The scary vibe and creepy/disturbing atmosphere is a great thing about SH2. There are some iconic scenes and monsters which are sure to scare the pants off of you. However, the game lost me a quarter way through. What is with all the goddamn puzzles and riddles?! It became quite ridiculous sometimes, and instead of scared I was just frustrated. Sometimes, you spend too much time in one area (for example, hospital), and it just becomes boring and tiresome. The creepiness was wasted in puzzles which take up 85 percent of the game. The combat was okay... But the puzzles! They are too sustained, and I lost track of what I was even doing in Silent Hill in the first place! Also, the checkpoints are absurd. Definitely overrated!
Review of Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill 2
(2001 Video Game)
Silent Hill 2 is a dark, atmospheric tale... which is also quite overrated.
