Especially loved the bit of the review where he mentions bad camera angle and other issues as part of what raises the 'difficulty' of the game and that makes it harder to criticize. Any long time fans of Silent Hill will recognize this as one of the popular arguments for why the shitty controls and camera in Silent Hill are actually advantages to the game's atmosphere. In fact, it's a fairly widespread belief among the players that Team Silent intentionally makes the game clunky so you feel as slow and useless as you probably would be in the real situation.
I wonder if Yahtzee was thinking of that while doing the review, as he is an admitted fan of the games (especially 2, which has some seriously fail aiming + camera).
