Fucking a burning dolphin. XD
Anyway it was a superb review and I may have to play SH2 now (I own the game but never played it on account of me being a pansy).

Finally a SH2 review!!
This game gave me a sensation of uneasiness so bad that i played it no more than an hour.
True story...

Really didn't expect Silent Hill 2 to be reviewed this week, but nonetheless it was funny. The "Fucking a burning dolphin," part was kinda...odd.
Anyway, good one, keep it up.
"Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaames," hilarious!

Ehh. To be honest I never thought it was that good. It isn't because of the combat, it's simply I have too much distance from James as a character. I wouldn't be whining about some dead lady, and certainly not afraid because, well, games don't scare me. What I'd be doing is beating the shit out of everything and having an alright time doing it.
i feel its a little strange for a critic to review a game that everyone who are the least bit interested in playing already bought, if not around release then when they saw it in a 2 dollar bin and those who haven't played it by now wont.
its a waste of time and its only interesting for those not interested in games but just wanna hear some kinda game related humor.
also; ZOMG GZ!! to that guy who got first post and im sorry for the two others getting suspended without getting the glory of being first.

Hell yeah, I was waiting for that one. Greatest game of all time, no doubt about it.
I must've played it a dozen times since it was released and it just never gets old.
So, great review of an even greater game.

True. Usually when the main character is an inanimate object, or in this case a place, there isn't much that the writers can do with it. It's nice to see different concepts, back from the times when games were normally original.Sansha said:
Yep, once more Summer has no line up of major releases like the Winter/late Autumn and Spring period. For me in 2009 it's Batman: Arkham Asylum (one I MUST see a ZP review of) and in 2007 it was Bioshock... nothing springs to mind for 2008 though.
Never played a Silent Hill game but I do like the genre (yes Yahtzee, the "real" ones and the ones you consider actions games). Surprised I haven't tried it out yet, I'm always up for playing old games. Heck I just had a Wolfenstein 3D marathon today lol!

I'd get It, but I'd only not get pissed by getting the good ending.
I should still get it. I've seen a few of the cutscenes, but to get the whole story I should actually play the damn thing.

Well, most online games were like Quake and all this stuff.....Sooooooo Sorry bub. However give yourself a cookie having the words " a simpler time". Because it was really a simpler time.ssgt splatter said:
nice to see a review of a classic. one of my favorite games as well. though was James a clerk over there? here the instruction manual has his profession listed as Protagonist.
SH2s gameplay was ass. maybe if they realized fans of that game loved playing the story they wouldnt have shoehorned so much of it into other games. tbh i found SH1s gameplay to be more fulfilling.

Great to see this review of the game. Still one of my favourites and hands down the most disturbing and thralling story I've played - especially as it dawns on you what's going on as it comes to a conclusion.
As to people wondering why it's worth covering - isn't that like asking why critics still talking about Citizen Kane or Raging Bull? When something it truly classic and important in the development of an art form or as a piece of entertainment it's worth remembering it and discussing it's values. Especially when they have been forgotten by so much that has followed.
