Did they ever remaster silent hill? I’d love to play it as I never have but I doubt I could handle the gameplay

namelivia,

I really liked silent hill 1 but to me silent hill 2 was even better

It’s a completely different genre but if you are fine with FPS games, you may wanna check out Incision. It’s art style might be up your alley:

(I’m NOT affiliated with the game or the reviewer in any way, it just seems to be the latest review while all the others are from when early access launched.)

o__math,

I’m more of an classic RE guy, and maybe it’s nostalgia, but there is something that feels like home with these graphics. I’ve seen some modern games emulate them very well and with the right design they can crank up the creepy/scary factor.

Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid make very, very good use of PS1 hardware and the stylistic choices just enhance that. The abstract textures of silent hill make everything look fleshy or rusty. MGS has that cool shadowy look which is perfect for sneaking.

BurningnnTree,

I agree, I’ve always thought Silent Hill is the best looking game of the PS1/N64 era.

greedytacothief,

I love that PS1 horror/aesthetic is making a comeback in the indie scene

Playing this and RE1 was scary at night. Fun, but scary.

Lunar,

I am playing through it at the moment.

DaMonsterKnees,

Someone didn’t like your contribution, friend, although for the life of me, I can’t glean why. Oh well, you have my support.

Lunar,

Thanks!

enjoy! it's such a unique experience

Lunar,

Yeah. It’s one of the only Silent Hill games I haven’t finished. I am enjoying it.

I never had a PS1 but had always heard of this game and wanted to play it, so I did it on emu a few years ago. Thought it was pretty cool... gameplay wise, kind like the evolution of the Genesis game Flashback.

This and fatal frame gave me nightmares as a little girl. I need to play them both again.

ExtraMedicated,

Both SH1, and Fatal Frame are two of the very few games that gave me an actual sense of dread while playing. Most horror games don’t even come close.

calavera,

Fatal Frame 2 was so good, gave me a lot of goosebumps playing it back then

I replayed recently and it’s still a blast!

i need to play it again. what's your fave part? i have to say midwich elementary is mine, because it terrified me so much. i also enjoyed the hospital

Hospital and Nowhere are my fav areas. I like also the city at night in the dark world, it gives a really great madness atmosphere.

AceQuorthon,

Now what this needs is a remake that removes all of the charm and atmosphere

Lunar,

With microtransactions by Konami.

Agent641,

Unlock unique dances for Harry Mason! Only $4.99 each!

Lunar,

Power to the player!

echo64,

they already made one, today is the 14th anniversary of it, so I’m pretty sure it counts as Retro too

jeffw,

I get why people love SH2, but I don’t get why people overlook the original. And they’re remaking SH2 and skipping the original, which is sad imo

RightHandOfIkaros,

I like the visuals and gameplay, but Silent Hill 2 will reign as the supreme Silent Hill game. The remake won’t hold a candle to the original. Literal lightning in a bottle that cannot be recaptured.
