russtolium Just replaying SH4 myself for the first time in 8 years (dear god that sounds weird to say), now that my expectations are already set I'm enjoying it a lot more than the first go. The Last Mariachi gives me chills every time I boot it up.

Ljrivarola SH4 has a special place in my heart. Besides being my favourite one, here's a little story: In my first trip without my parents and with my friends, we ended up in a beautiful hotel. When the receptionist was about to tell us wich was our room, I was LITERALLY PRAYING because I didn't want the room 302 (I completed SH4 a few days before that). Guess what? We ended up in room 302. For my friends it was nothing, but I was shocked. I even took photos of the room, with my friends looking at me as if I was a crazy dude. Obviously, the room was completelly normal, but... it was ROOM 302! The room, the trip and the game... All of them have a special place in my heart.

just played Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, and it was reaaally good. I was surprised at how much 'Silent Hill' could remain in a game with virtually all game mechanics removed/ changed [2] this game turned out to be so much better than I expected. a brilliant tribute to the original SH. It is so good I'm actually ashamed of my past snobbish attitude towards it. The final moments of the game (accompanied by beautiful "Ice") are just breathtaking.

JBThazard Getting in on the SH4 discussion, the mechanics and structure were often more tedious than the previous ones, but story, visual/audio presentation and some of the concepts were still good as ever. [2] Agreed, though I admit the game didn't get very scary/interesting for me until the end of the first half, in the hospital level. There are some fucked up tricks that building plays on you.....

Boris85Britva Very good, very scarry, very atmospheric!

aerozol1 Getting in on the SH4 discussion, the mechanics and structure were often more tedious than the previous ones, but story, visual/audio presentation and some of the concepts were still good as ever. Different people will be able to live with this imbalance better than others. Speaking of which, just played Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, and it was reaaally good. The gameplay, particularly the 'action' sequences, fluctuated between average and bloody terrible, but the story was amazing. I was surprised at how much 'Silent Hill' could remain in a game with virtually all game mechanics removed/ changed. But again, 'Silent Hill' will mean different things to different people, and I'm sure some people will have been really disappointed/ hated the game. I don't 'agree', but they're not 'wrong' either, SH is broad enough to allow that. As long as they don't start exclusively releasing it as an on-rails shooter. Then we're fucked. Sweet, that's my thought vomit done too, enjoy (:

Pyramidek For anyone interested in dark ambient/industrial side of his music - there are new music rips from SH2, SH3 & SH4, made by Aethryix, available at Silent Hill Memories. They might be the best & most complete SH2-4 music rips put out so far

Indeed well said, Jureiko. I don't think that the missing radio or not exploring the town is much of a problem. The constriction seems to be intentional and a major element in providing this nightmarish atmosphere. Sort of claustrophobic horror instead of the agoraphobic horror when exploring the town.
-
mattdh12 personally, i thought sh4 was just painfully boring and not scary at all. i gave it like 3 tries and thought the same thing each time. i'm currently on my third run of finishing sh1-sh3, it's a damn shame i found sh4 too boring to even finish once. i'm all for taking things in a different direction, i think sh4 just failed at it. to each his own though.
-
Downfall75 @Jureiko - Most is true, however since the atmosphere is one of the most important aspects of the game, SH4 not having the radio and especially not exploring the town which the game is named after really did make it a lesser horror experience. Symbolism and storytelling was good, some characters were a bit too dull, what's even funnier that it was mostly the protagonist, but at least that way everything looked more depressive. Music though, as always was a top notch. People obviously hate SH4 because it went into a completely different direction, take anything in life, sprinkle generously with change and watch it crumble in the eyes of the ignorant ones. My guess is that those who hate The Room are either people very new to Silent Hill who haven't experienced SH4 fully, or are very ignorant try-hard fans who can't embrace any changes.

I wanna share some thoughts about The Room. As a SH fan I would really appreciate if you read this (it continues below). Well... there are numerous differences between The Room and the first three games: no more radio/flashlight/infinite inventory, no more exploring the town etc. But all of those never were major elements of SH gameplay. Symbolism, storytelling, characters, music, atmosphere - that's what SH is about, these are the major elements. That being said, what's the sitrep on SH4 ?
-
Jureiko
Symbolism: check. Storytelling: huge check here. Crazy plot twists of the original game (Gary-Cheryl line/drug traffic line/otherworld-Lisa line) were hard to grasp, but The Room offers a real mind bender. There's so many characters involved that in order to get to the bottom of things you must even read some off-game stuff (Victims list, Another crimson tome) cause there's lot of details that had been left behind the scenes. It is deeply intertwined both with the main plotline of the series ("The Order" line) and the SH2 spin-off James line. In the end it makes perfect sense and it's amazing, I enjoyed every minute of solving this puzzle.

Jureiko
Characters may seem under-developed and uninteresting at first but as the story unfolds you realize there's nothing wrong with that. Simply cause they are not main characters. They're all just bleak flat shadows that are there to contrast terrifying and dramatic story of the sole main character, Walter, both the martyr and the executioner. The game tells his story, shows his nightmares and beliefs. Next.. the soundtrack. Akira did write amazing music for The Room but for reasons unknown there's just a few tracks that are actually present in the game, leaving us to explore most parts the game in total silence (at least that's the sitrep on PC version). That's just sad. It also reduces the integrity of the game atmosphere but IMO that's not an issue due to the newly introduced gameplay elements (the room interaction, ghosts, Eileen etc) conpensating for it.

Jureiko
Well.. that's it then I guess. Kinda load-of-my-mind-post that was. If you are not familiar with the game - play it, it's great. If you are an SH4 hater or you’ve got disappointed by the game than just wait for the right mood and give it a second try. It's just not as musical as it's predecessors, dialogues and story don't emotionally engage you as fast either. But give it a chance and as time goes by you will love it as much as the previous titles of SH series. That's it, thank you for reading.

Hiring a new voice-over cast in the HD releases was a mistake in my opinion. It just doesn't feel right even for one like me who knows how to embrace changes. It isn't that terribly bad with Maria and James, pretty good actually. Heather however sounds older than she is and less emotional, her original voice was way more unique and enjoyable. I'd still recommend to play the older, original ones, unless you care too much for the graphics.
