Silent Hill HD - Collection (PS3)

Product Information

Silent Hill HD Collection proves a good way to experience two great horror classics that embody psychic fear and buried emotional pain like no others, with gruesome settings, monstrously imaginative enemies and a thousand creepy, dark hallways. The sound design and lighting are excellent as well, and the graphics have never looked better or grimier. However, the flaws of the control scheme, combat system and obscure puzzles are more apparent a decade later, and while the graphics get an upgrade, it comes with some slowdown and minor changes in lighting and contrast that may upset purists. At the end of the day, these are two games from a dying genre that deserve to be remembered and played again. I, like many other survival-horror enthusiasts, hope we'll get a genuine Silent Hill collection released on modern consoles eventually. The PT cancellation and removal from the PlayStation Store is still a sore spot for fans, and the infamous split between developer Hideo Kojima and Konami further muddies the ashen-strewn waters of Silent Hill.

Throwing melee weapons is somewhat unproductive. You can't aim when doing it, so you can easily miss and run out of your gun. I doubt any player will use that feature. HOWEVER, make sure you've read and reread EVERYTHING before asking me, okay? It'll save us both a lot of time. Start each comment with re:SH1 or "can you help me with Homecoming?", etc. so I know what game we're talking about. Thanks! Orry, James (October 23, 2008). "Konami confirms Euro delays".

Extra options menu.During Dahlia's monologue to Cybil in the Good+ and Bad+ endings, she calls the Seal of Metatron the "talisman of Me tra tron" (captioned "talisman of Me tra ton"). Similarly, in every ending but "UFO", Dahlia tells Harry "the time is nigh" (erroneously captioned "The time is n eigh").Silent Hill 2: Enhanced Edition also comes with a built-in CRT filter, however it seems intended for VERY high resolutions and looks awful at 1080p. The Frutbunn shader works for most cases and simulates the effect much better in my opinion. There are other CRT options within ReShade as well if you want to experiment. The VCR filter is neat for Shattered Memories especially. You don't have to stop there either, ReShade has tons of neat post-processing features! Just don't forget to actually play, okay? Masahiro Ito stated that the sequel Silent Hill 2 was originally meant to be set between the late-1970s and before the 1990s. [7] [8] Both Ito and Lost Memories: Silent Hill Chronicle confirm that Silent Hill 2 takes place after the original. Ito added "It might be after 6 months, or after a few years." [9] [10] When asked about the 'since 1987' sign, Ito clarified it was something the development team overlooked when making Silent Hill 2. [11] a b c d Turi, Tim (March 12, 2012).

Harry confronts monsters in each area with both melee weapons and firearms. A portable radio alerts Harry to the presence of nearby creatures with bursts of static. Harry's flashlight illuminates dark areas, but when it is switched off, he has a greater chance of eluding enemies. Less well-received was the voice acting, which was found average overall by reviewers and accompanied by long pauses between lines that served to spoil the atmosphere. Some reviewers also took issue with the vague story, which left many questions unanswered and due to the multiple endings failed to provide any real closure. The tank controls and camera angles were also criticized for being clunky. Open default_pc.cfg in Notepad. There will be three lines near the top (ignore numeric bullet points):The PC version's gamma is far too high and looks bright and washed out compared to console. This will make an easy in-game change to settings so it's closer to the console versions.

Chief designer of Silent Hill: Homecoming, Masashi Tsuboyama, announced the game's development in a 2004 interview with Eurogamer, [40] in which he also debunked previous internet rumors that it was to be called Shadows of the Past. [40] No information was initially imparted about the platform the game would appear on, other than it would be appearing on the next generation of consoles, which had yet to be released. [40] Around two years later, an interview with composer Akira Yamaoka revealed more information; he hinted that they had hoped to carry on "plans of the earlier Silent Hill platforms", and that the team were creating a title with the idea of "fear in daylight", with similar psychological roots to Silent Hill 2. [41] The suggestion that the story and gameplay would be more like that of the second entry in the series in the way the player is directed, and in the character's behavior, was reaffirmed in a later interview, along with the idea of creating the game for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms.

Harry's Jeep is a 1986-1995 Jeep Wrangler, clearly evidenced by its front grille and headlights. A shop in the game says "since 1987", implying the game is not set before 1987.
