Silent Hill (PS) Reviews

Yes, I know, I'm not going to win any awards for being up to date, but Silent Hill is such a classic, I thought another review wouldn't hurt. Silent Hill is your common or garden Japanese survival horror game from makers Konami. The game play involves general exploring, puzzles and combat. So far so straightforward. What makes Silent ...  Read the complete review

Silent Hill in my opinion is the greatest Horror video game ever made. The name alone, before I even loaded up the disc, enoked feelings of desolation and uncertainty within me. Then the title music sends shivers down my spine. The shaky sinister spanish style guitar, with the amazing cut scenes playing in the background. I'm drawn in, I want to ...  Read the complete review

Much like Konami's other big game of 1999, Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill got plenty of hype in the months approaching its release. But unlike the stealth classic, views on Silent Hill have always been split. It seems that anyone who has really got into the game has found it an incredibly unnerving, psychologically challenging horror ...  Read the complete review

You must play this one! It is totally worth buying, because it has so many different endings depending on what you do in the game, it's like playing a new version each time! Silent Hill is so intriging, it'll be hard to put down, as it swallows you into it's dark world. It's like you are in Silent Hill, and left your world behind ...  Read the complete review

I apologise now for the title not long back from work and my creativity is not at ots highest! Anyways on to the game-this game when it first came out was instantly tagged as a Resident Evil clone (which by many standards isnt a bad thing!)Although similarities exist Silent Hill gives you a much bigger scare due to a mix of shock tactics and great ...  Read the complete review

In life, there are a few things we know to be true: 1. If you only watch one episode of the first showing of a new TV series, and then, six months later, tune into the repeat series, you will always see the same episode. 2. The average time between throwing something away and needing it badly is one week. 3. You ...  Read the complete review

Silent Hill is a survival horror of great impact, with one weft a lot cured and an atmosphere of shiver. It does not enjoy the same notoriety of the Resident Evil but it does not have nothing to envy to no other title of the sort. Who has had the fortune (and the liver) to carry to the end the incubus that sees as protagonist Harry Mason will ...  Read the complete review

Highs: 3D Environments Loads of Creepy Stuff Great Sound FX/Music The Flashlight & Radio! Lows: Some Control Issues Way Too Much Fog More Puzzles Than Action Grainy Graphics Poor Weapon Aiming The question on everyone's mind is "Does this blow away the Resident Evil games?" Some ...  Read the complete review

This is an outstanding addition to the "Survival Horror" game genre. Before its release, it was feared that Silent Hill was merely a Resident Evil clone. In some ways the game does resemble Capcom's well received horror games. However, Silent Hill has enough differences to set it apart from the rest, and it has enough ...  Read the complete review

Whatever you do, don't go into this town! Unfortunately for Harry Mason, that advice is too late. After a near fatal car crash on the edge of town, his daughter Cheryl has disappeared into the night. Waking from a disturbing crash-induced nightmare, Harry finds the town almost deserted and a young motorcycle cop, Cybil, watching over him. ...  Read the complete review

A psychological horror of epic proportions, in which you play the leading role. Witness the dark side of the human imagination if you dare. Enter an alternate dimension, ruled by cruelty and excruciating pain. Follow a trail of blood and mutilation to snatch a loved one from the grip of chaotic power. Hold onto your mind and remember; death is no ...  Read the complete review

An anonymous shopper from Milton Keynes, England Silent Hill definitely got some bad press when released, and was ignored since it was immediately labelled as a Resident Evil rip-off. This may be true, but the whole 3D environment that Resident Evil is flawed by was strangely missed by the critics. What also makes it superior to The Resident ...  Read the complete review

Silent Hill is definitely the scariest horror survival game I've ever played on. The style of other horror survivors like Resident Evil is to suddenly throw scary things at you out of nowhere but in Silent Hill the atmosphere slowly builds up to the fear, it's like on a log flume ride at a theme park when you are slowly going up and you ...  Read the complete review

highly addictive, enjoyable with a groovy scary plot! - Advantages: lots of atmosphere, highly addictive, not impossibly hard - Disadvantages: can feel too dark +twisted

"The fear of blood tends to create fear for the flesh." This cryptic and macabre line is the first thing you see when you load up Konami's Silent Hill (straight after, "There are violent and disturbing images in this game"), and thus begins the most frightening videogame experience I've ever had. Silent Hill ...  Read the complete review

SIlent Hill. Nice title, isn't it? Not too blunt like Resident Evil, not too obtuse like Koudelka. It's just right, sort of an understated kind of title. However understated isn't the kind of adjective you can apply to any other part of the game as this is scary stuff. You start off with an FMV which pretty much brings you to ...  Read the complete review

In answer to the title of this opinion, yes very scared. I'd never have thought a console game could make me jump out of my skin and be afraid to turn the lights out. Taking the idea of the 'Resident Evil' games, this has some of the same elements yet it's far more effective in the spooky department. To set the scene, a ...  Read the complete review

Silent Hill. Where do I start. This is truly a fantastic game. The best RPG I have ever played. It is the only game that has scared me properly. Turn off the lights and play with a vibrating control pad and you'll see what I'm talking about. This RPG has almost unlimited playability. There are 5 different endings, including a funny ...  Read the complete review

Silent Hill is one of the best ever playstation games to ever be released. It can become very difficult to understand if you are not used to playing these kind of games. The game is all about a man who you control and who is trying to find his lost daughter in the wierd town. This town is full of zombies and monsters and just anything wierd you ...  Read the complete review
