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 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
 
I'm likely double dipping on the Deck and the Switch 2. Provided Switch 2 gets a physical copy, that is.
 
How many points did the original SH2 receive back then?

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.
