Man this game Da F****** Bomb. the story lines Awsome. the Grahipics the Controls are not the best. If i Could i would rate 4.9 But its not perfect. this game has Twists and turns. and Maria is Stupid. she scared me more then the monsters. not as scary as a puzzle game. Easy Riddle is too easy set on Middle Diffuculty. if you hate puzzles then this game is full of it.
SH2 scared the poo outa me!

This is definitely a creepy one...although part 1 did a little more to raise the hairs on my neck..but SH2's graphics picked up on the atmosphere much better...the grainy look is a neat idea..but why are they taking it out of the XBox version? Oh well, this is definitely an engrossing title if your lookign for a good blood bath and like movies such as Hellraiser or Se7en...pick up SH2...it shouldn't dissapoint.
Far better than Resident Evil

Silent Hill is an extremely interesting game. The foggy atmosphere is very realistic but can get in the way. The graphics are great and sound is also good. Action is not plentiful though. If you like survival horror you must own this game!!
Silent is the last thing that you'll be after playing this game!

I was amazed. This game was mind bending. Though I've never played the first, I've heard it's pretty good. But this, this is great. In Silent Hill 2, you play as James. James came to Silent Hill because he got a letter in the mail from his wife, Mary. Mary wants James to come to Silent Hill. What's so special about Mary, well, Mary is dead. James takes the road to Silent Hill so he can see his wife. In spite of my appreciation for this game, I admit that I was dissappointed. Being called "The Scariest Game of the Year," Silent Hill 2 still has yet to scare me. It is atmospheric with about as much realism that you may puke, but I just didn't get scared. Anyways, the graphics are surely brilliant. The cinemas are magic. The in-game sequences are grainy like an old movie which is so cool. Every character displays emotions that look real. The sounds are as amazing as the graphics. Many Japanese games have rather corny voice acting (i.e. Zone of the Enders) but this game doesn't. The music is really atmospheric and kicks in alot when action comes along. The voices are seemingly professional while simple footsteps are detailed to the max. The control are basic survival horror stuff with two different settings. This is a great game. Though they could have brought more thrills, this game is a purchase. End of story.
best horror game of the year

This is one of the greatest games yet for the PS2, and certainly the best survival/horror game to date. From the way the flashlight casts eerie shadows, to the way that the music keeps you on edge, you are gonna need a reality break from time to ime during exended gameplay. Definitely not for kids.
SILENT HILL is back for vengance and no gamer can stop it.

This is bar far the best horror game ever. It took away my sanity and left me hearing the twitchy nurses and the radio noise everywhere I went. It is a must have game that will leave you breathless. The only downside is some of the camera angles. Sometimes it ends up in front of you and you can't get past it so you're walking down the hallway without being able to see in front of you. Other than that the game is incredible.

I still have nightmares from this game. SH2 is the scariest game I've ever played. It makes Resident Evil look like a kidde game! If you've ever been scared by any video game, then you'll faint while playing this one.
