I am so pleasantly surprised by this. I really had little faith in Bloober and the footage I'd seen wasn't convincing me otherwise.

Congratulations to them team on making the first awesome Silent Hill since forever and reviving the series from being completely comatose. Looking forward to playing through it and exploring every corner of the town.

Yet another console exclusive banger for PS5. Wukong, astro, and this all within a short time. We're eating so good.

 

[Madflavor]

Wow! Grats to Bloober for finally making a game that doesn’t smell like the morning dump I’m currently taking.

Looks like I’ve got a great spooky game to play this October.

 

[Killer8]

Not surprising scores for anyone paying attention for the last few months and who wasn't dead set on shitting on the game for the pettiest of reasons.

For as long as I live I never want to see another thumbnail of some Youtube cuck's face with bold impact font saying "I AM REALLY WORRIED ABOUT ____ " again.

 

[GymWolf]

FFVII Rebirth, Rise of the Ronin, Helldivers 2, PS5 having one of it's best years yet

If you count third party timed exclusives then you should add stellar blade and wukong to that list.

 

[Corporal.Hicks]

LOL at so many AMD fans who want to play this game with RT. You bought an AMD GPU because RT was supposedly not important to you and now you want to be able to play with RT. Have some decency and keep your words and play this game without RT .

 

[MDSLKTR]

Suck it haters

 

[Ulysses 31]

Preorder cancelled

Downgrade confirmed.

 

[Moridianae]

Very happy with this, even though I thought it was looking very well done in the last couple of showings.

Bloober Team seems to have executed this very well. I may end up picking it up on launch, but I may wait to see if there'll be Pro support announced shortly after launch or any general updates they do to improve it, as games almost always tend to do these days.

Feels like it's always best to wait a month or so, anyway.

I liked the original game. The remake probably won't impress me as much, but I still couldn't understand why so many people hated it. The remake will allow you to experience the story from a new perspective, and for a true fan that's always an interesting idea. Just being able to explore the Silent Hill map with UE5 graphics makes me want to play the remake regardless of the ugly female design (Angela).

 

[Luipadre]

Push Square said the dualsense haptic here is one of the best implementation they ever played. Hyped!

 

[dotnotbot]

Damn, I should've bought Bloober stock

 

[AW_CL]

This dude has really gone mask off the last few weeks.

 

[Nankatsu]

Really solid reviews.

And I didn't play the original. This is gonna be good when I play it.

 

[tommib]

This dude has really gone mask off the last few weeks.

It’s basically this all over again:

 

[SweetTooth]

Preorder cancelled

That 89 for the classic is a crime. The game is unmatched to this day!

It was in the the post I was replying to

Dude is a green rat disguised as PC master elitist after being pounded by Sony for 20 years. I can name few posters here on the same boat

“That $700 console has to do what my 5K RGB power plant does”.

What a weasel.

Still sexy though.

 

[DavidGzz]

Suck it haters

Seriously. Get Bloobered on.

 

[Badlucktroll]

It was smart for konami to have bloober do silent hill 2 and not some shitty eurojank homepour with a story that makes no sense

The improvement was massive in the last 3-4 trailers. Made the continued anger over the game seem very odd to me.

Kudos to Bloober and Konami for not letting the negativity stop them from making the best game they could.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Here to eat crow. Looks like they have made a great game. Looking forward to playing it at some stage once I’ve knocked a few off the backlog.

 

[Kikorin]

This is a nice surprise, definitely going to play it in future when I'll find it on some sale. Seems a good work and I never played the second chapter of this classic.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Put me the shocked camp. Wasn’t expecting these scores whatsoever.

And now I have to play it. FUCK!

 

[Draugoth]

Draugoth doesn't seem to be online, so I've taken the initiative to update the OP with reviews and OC/MC screenshots.

Ended up waking up too early for the embargo and had to go back to sleep

But i finished updating the thread now.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Hope this gets a Pro patch. Close enough to wait until Nov to play it

I thought games released now will have to support pro. I think from 15th September is the date.

I’m absolutely doing this, going to wait for a pro patch and hardware to land in a month. Dead space remake will keep me busy until then.

 

[genesisblock]

Might be, but I checked it isn't that bad tho. Out of 400 games they reviewed, only 14 are perfect scores. That's only 3% not that bad actually

That's... A lot. Meanwhile Gamepot gives about 30+ games a perfect 10 out of 12000. That's less than 1%.

 

[Luipadre]

Put me the shocked camp. Wasn’t expecting these scores whatsoever.

And now I have to play it. FUCK!

Downloading the Deluxe Edition now.

Perfect cold rainy day in October game to play.

 

[DavidGzz]

Hell yeah its a fantastic lineup! and somehow PS5 has no games to some lol

The problem is that when you buy a $3,000 PC, and there are no console exclusives, the consoles collect dust. It's spanking the Xbox for sure though.

 

[Heisenberg007]

--------------------------------------------------- Still sexy though.

 

[mejin]

Sunday is coming. SH is back

 

[thatJohann]

Wow didn’t expect this. Excited to play it!

 

[Northeastmonk]

preload is live

Hell yeah. Crazy cause of how well known this game is and back in the day people gave it a 7/10.

 

[SweetTooth]

You know, I kinda agree with you here. Releasing SP games on PC can only devalue your main brand for a small increase in revenue. Nintendo knows this, the retards at Sony/MS are looking for the short term gain

 

[OmegaSupreme]

I'd like to see 3 redone as well by this team.

 

[FunkMiller]

Well, I’m fucking stunned.

But very happy to be proved wrong. Onto the ‘buy’ pile it goes.

 

[Drunkensamurai]

It's another Playstation-exclusive banger.

 

[Senua]

It's another Playstation-exclusive banger.

It's on PC bruv

 

[ToadMan]

Bloober out Bluepoint-ing .... er Bluepoint!

Redemption arc. The Medium was a mis-step for sure - perhaps driven by the need to be ready for Xbox series launch window.

But as an arc from Observer and Layers of Fear to this, I feel like that is a fair recognition of the strides Bloober has made the last few years. Good on them.

... Now will there be a PSVR mode in future? Seems to be in vogue for horror/survival these days.

Also kind of surprised some of the Polish reviewers have given this the worst scores - so much for home cookin'! Respect to them for not fawning over a homegrown game but damn...

 

[OmegaSupreme]

It's on PC bruv

Not on Xbox though. Sorry.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Welp, see you fuckers on Sunday

 

[Senua]

Not on Xbox though. Sorry.

No need to apologise my friend.

 

[Erebus]

Does anyone know what time will the game activate on Steam for those with the deluxe edition?

 

[FunkMiller]

It's another Playstation-exclusive banger.

Mods! The console peasants are speaking out of turn again!

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Mods! The console peasants are speaking out of turn again!

Is it that time for me to go again?

 

[GrayChild]

Mods! The console peasants are speaking out of turn again!

Let the warriors have their 5 minutes of fame. Funny how it's the 3rd party studios delivering the bangers for the entire year (Stellar Blade, Silent Hill 2, Rise of the Ronin, FFVII: Rebirth etc.), while Sony's own studios have not delivered anything of value outside of Astrobot.

The haters were wrong! Ha!
