On that note I’m still trying to play Downpour. Combat is just rotten but then I get constant glitches with parts of geometry and character models „flickering”… not sure if I can do thisNice. I'll probably finish it this weekend.
Off topic but man, this has been such a fantastic Hallowern season for me. Weather has been fantastic, SH2 remake is a joy to play, been revisiting other SH games and titles in the Fatal Frame series, watching horror movies, seeing the fall colors with leisure drives and hikes. So damn cozy!
It’s good you’re telling me this. Sometimes I’m close to paying 60 EUR for a used PS3 copy on eBay just to see how bad/good it is.
Downpour is truly awful. I still want to master the mechanics and find something good with it but man, every time I try I am reminded why I dislike the game so much. The combat is awful, and the enemies are plenty; cop cars filled with trash mobs. Its just so dumb to me.
I bought it at launch, traded it in a few years later and i bought another copy earlier this year, japanese copy cause its cheaper. Still has english though.
I haven't played sh games after the room, and i don't remember shit from that one.
Don't do it man. Not only is the game bad, it runs like total shit on PS3. But if you have a good enough PC then try it on RPCS3, it helps a lot with the image and runs pretty well at 60fps.
Homecoming and Origins are pretty worth playing. Homecoming in particular plays a lot like this new remake, it has excellent music and solid atmospheric town design. Many people didn't like the story because it kind of copied SH2 in some parts(Pyramid Head) but I myself enjoyed it. Homecoming is in fact the reason I went back and finished Silent Hill 2 on PS2 and then played the rest of them one after the other liking the original the best and Shattered Memories the least.
I'm not really a retrogamer, i would probably hate the clunkiness and how dated they feel.
Homecoming while not as polished plays similar to SH2:R and SH2,3 and 4 recently got third person camera mods to make them feel a bit more modern. They do need a bit of tweaking and patch installings though so I would understand that being a barrier for new players.
No, the thing in the cage that try to kiss me with his vagina (?).
Such a strange ass bossfight
Btw, i'm trying to use the "shoot the knee and then go melee" on the nurses but the number of projectiles for the stun is completely random, sometimes they go down woth 2 hits, sometimes they don't go down even wih 4 bullets.
I really dislike how many elements of the combat feel random, from enemy health to stuff like this.
I thought it was yet again sexual innuendo, the position was a bit sus
i guess if you played more games you’d probably see how not complex it is.
Shattered memories is not even the same developers. Anything past 4 should be ignored as it’s just random developers, passing around the silent Hill title.
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.
Not sure if it's been mentioned but the beer belly stripper is the same in OG SH2.
I know it was being called out as being altered in the remake.
That's quite the combination, are you waiting for a newer generation of Nvidia cards or you just not interested in upgrading? If you don't mind sharing of course.GMG has this for $54. Which, apparently for me was enough of a discount to forgo my self imposed “you bought too much Steam shit and gotta wait to buy more” game fasting.

She’s running pretty good on FSR quality. Most settings on High. Not getting a perfect 60, but damn close. Probably gonna look for an FSR3 injector. If anyone knows of one, lemme know. On my setup I’ve actually had better luck with XeSS.
Either way, about to descend these stairs and mope around this town.
EDIT: Fuck it I’m hitting FB marketplace and trying to get something tonight
I was waiting to see what the 5xxx brings. The darn thing just runs games so well at 1920x1080 that I haven't been forced to. Since my post I figured out how to use FSR3.1 and Frame Generation and now it's running in the 90s. 3 series was unobtanium. I thought the 4 series had an absolutely offensive amount of vRAM, so when it came out that the 5xxx series was going to have the same amounts I gave up. Buying something used.
Oh no it actually tracks how many times you've checked the map. I genuinely fear it's gonna be in the thousands for me when I've done with it lol. I'm constantly checking the map after every corner even when I've no need to, just out of habit.Took my time with it but finally done with my first playthrough. Yes I have an awful sense of direction.
Excellent job by Bloober Team on this remake, hopefully they get to make one for Silent Hill 1 too.
I said complex compared to the other silent hills, it's not too hard to understand buddy.
I miss the lack of swearing in most things. I feel the same with random nudity
I also had the GTX1080 paired with the 7800X3D. To be honest most games from my steam library run quite well (1440p 60fps at high or console like settings, FSR2 was helpful in some games too). However, the most demanding games (like the TLOU remake, Alan Wake 2, or UE5 games) run poorly at 1440p even with FSR2. Also some games wasnt loading textures correctly due to 8GB VRAM (forspoken).GMG has this for $54.

I probably spent 2 hours adjusting graphics settings because I wasnt happy with my experience (stutters). I also spent a lot of time trying to find all the supplies because I was trying to kill every single monster.
I understand that but it's a good entry imo. Wii is the main platform. Not sure how things translated to the others.
There is no canon ending as this is a complete story so there isn't a reason for one to be a canon but some say it's the one you got as there are references in SH4 about James heading to Silent Hill and never returning. Maybe the movie will settle it.
Henry states to a picture given to him by Frank Sunderland, "I got this photo from Sunderland, the superintendent. I heard his son and daughter-in-law disappeared in Silent Hill a few years back...". Masahiro Ito has also stated that his favorite is the water ending but all 4 endings are official canon.
There’s a trigger warning as soon as you fire it up. It warns about the themes and has a QR code to scan for “help.”
Game ramps up and become even better after the hospital I think
