Silent Hill 5 baby

i dunno what it was, maybe i just didnt have the time to play it.. the other silent hills, i loved from the beginning, and couldnt put them down...

maybe i was a lil bored of the series, just running past the monsters etc.... i dunno, for some reason it didnt appeal to me as much as the others

It was harder to run past the monsters in 4 if I remember well. I think the problem with 4 was that the game\'s flow was continuously destructed with the room portals.

Also the room and the outside world looked and controlled so differently that they didnt seem that much connected.

It was much more slow paced too.

I\'d play dat and scare my wife\'s panties off... Thank you, ps3..

Small update....

I still don\'t know what to think just yet,...the bathroom shot with the corpse...i think it looks just pasted to the floor,...and i feel the environments need to be a bit more dirty and rusty looking....but the one thing that\'s irking me that\'s not here but in the trailer was the transformation to the nightmare world. I don\'t like how they\'re getting their inspiration from the movie to go into the transformation...part of what made silent hill so scary was not really knowing when you were in the nightmare world..it was on some \'ol WTF? type s**t!.....the new screens don\'t look bad, they just don\'t have that silent hill feel imo just yet....i\'m hoping this game turns out great, but my gut feeling is telling me i\'m going to be a bit underwhelmed...

I\'m OK with it that this game is not gonna blow away other AAA games, when it comes to graphics.  At least, if i look back at SH2, it\'s relatively primitive yet captivates by means of storyline, artistic design and atmosphere.

SH3 seemed to get it right in previews, but it kind of let me down somehow and I didn\'t even bother with #4.

I\'m really interested in this one though, as it seems to go back to SH2 form.

The last screen with depth of field is awesome. :thumb: I really get a "i need to get away here" feeling.

Is Silent Hill 3 worth playing?  I have it on the PC via GAMETAP but haven\'t devoted any time to it.

don\'t try to play it without a dualshock pad for pc because seemingly, the controls with mouse / keyboard suck major.

As a SH game.. it\'s a bit more action oriented. On second playthrough you can earn a lightsaber and even a submachine gun as unlockables. The vintage dense SH  atmosphere is still in there though.

Anyway... I love this SH5 screenshot

I\'m interested in this one, I liked the first one very much.

Waiting for more info and in-game footage.

The screenshots seem to lack something in terms of atmosphere. I dont know what exactly. But they dont give me the SH vibe I used to get from the other games.

Perhaps it is the character or the environments I am not sure. It doesnt look as twisted. It looks more like a typical hollywood action movie. Comparing the old SHs with the newest is like comparing a successful Japanese horror movie with Resident Evil: Extinction.

Everything looks like it was just pasted there. In the old Silent Hills everything mixed like a painting. A Bosch painting. The art direction is simply not there. It is more trying to imitate Silent Hill than become one

The character and the world were tied. In SH5 the character gives the impression that he is something separate and alien.

Also the fact that this is probably more action oriented is something I do not like. One of the great things about the old games was that characters were tragic personalities, helpless and trapped in a world that communicates with their dark subconscious and the dark past of the town.

Of course then again I could be wrong and I hope I am

I just hope this series,..doesn\'t end up being the "devil may cry 2" of the series...i just started playin\' silent hill 4 again and while the combat is kinda clunky,...i know the one thing that i can always count on from team silent,..and that is  atmosphere....that feeling of being locked up in your apt is just on some \'ol "wtf" type s**t, and that\'s a good thing....as i stated earlier the one thing i don\'t like is how they are gettin\' their inspiration from the movie...as far as  the transformations goes,...it was ok for the movie, but for the game itself, it just seems outta place and too commercial,...but who knows... hopefully this game will turn out ok.
