Damn that's a big boi!

Assuming playing on lower difficulty will shave off another 10~12 hours from that.

I don't get people saying there are no games... there are TOO MANY games... Wild narrative that is being pushed out there.

I just finished Astro Bot and I'm going to finish Persona 3 before the PS5 Pro comes out, but now I'll probably have to buy this and play it while more games get PS5 Pro patches. So much for tackling my backlog of games...

Sh2 is good….

No surprise why Sony has been pushing it harder than the Until Dawn remake. Not really in my wheel house but might check it out down the road.

 

[Luipadre]

SH2 16-18 hour long whaaaat? I knew devs said something similar, but that usually means game is about 10-12 max. Thats a great lenght

 

[Embearded]

SH2 35/40 -> 87.5%

Sounds too good.

 

[Draugoth]

Might get both games depending on how well they score

 

[Judge Magister]

Metaphor > Bloober Hill 2

Gonna cry?

 

[Kurotri]

Hashino bros, we won..

 

[Deerock71]

I'm likely double dipping on the Deck and the Switch 2. Provided Switch 2 gets a physical copy, that is.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

So, neither are as good as Nintendogs

 

[amigastar]

Metaphor sounds good, now i'm really interested in the game.

 

[Hrk69]

eatin

 

[tommib]

Three 9s out of 10 for SH2? The plot thickens.

 

[Danjin44]

We eating good next week, Danjin44 !

I loved the demo and it’s Hashino game, I didn’t expect nothing else.

[Moses85]

How many points did the original SH2 receive back then?

 

[analog_future]

Really excited for SH2!

 

[Arachnid]

Super excited for both of these. One of them more than the other, but still.

 

[Elios83]

These two will be my next games and I have already preordered both.

Silent Hill 2 PS5 Remake Gets First Review Score as Game Leaks - PlayStation LifeStyle

Silent Hill 2 PS5 remake has received its first professional review just as copies of the game started appearing in the wild.

www.playstationlifestyle.net

On a positive note, Bloober Team‘s take on Silent Hill 2 seems to be a hit, if previews and Famitsu’s full review are anything to go by. After majority of the outlets that previewed the game posted positive impressions, Japan’s Famitsu awarded it a score of 35/40 in its latest issue, per Gematsu.

Famitsu’s score is slightly better than what it awarded the original PS2 game back in 2001. The outlet gave the PS2 version 34/40 and the Xbox version 32/40. While reviews are subjective and games are rated by different individuals, the takeaway is that Silent Hill 2’s remake might just please players.

 

[yanhash]

The Demo is bop but Famitsu?

 

[Northeastmonk]

Best type of score: a number followed by the time to beat. No BS meta drama and prolonged personal opinions.

 

[makaveli60]

SH2 scoring this good in Japan is promising. Can’t wait
