Whatever the reason, the Silent Hill franchise just doesn't make me nervous like it used to.Įither way, I still have a soft spot for Pyramid Head, and find myself crossing my fingers every time a new Silent Hill title hits the shelves. Or maybe I've become sociopathic and disturbing imagery doesn't affect me like it probably should. Perhaps this could be due to the fact that the Silent Hill universe has become ordinary with age, or that the psychological horror genre, which Silent Hill helped create, has a significantly larger selection of titles these days. The more recent additions to the Silent Hill series have been unmistakably tame by comparison (roughly four games, by my count). (We do have female readers, right?) Either way, my point is that Konami seems to have forgotten how to make a psychological horror title. Obviously, I'm risking my manly reputation by admitting this, but I'm confident that many female readers will be instantly attracted to my emotional sensitivity. Still, if you like the game and want to have more options or just want an excuse to return to it after having already 100% completed it, then there's really no reason to not pick this up.Before I start this review, there's something that I need to confess: There were several scenes in the first few Silent Hill titles that genuinely terrified me. This is a pretty sweet deal for just five bucks, but I have to admit that putting up with the procedurally generated woes of the main game to see everything new is a bit of a pain. As much as the new room types and extra trophies are sure to please fans, I think the real highlight of this expansion is the option to play as James and Heather from Silent Hill 2 and 3 respectively. New weapons, enemy variations, and other items will give you plenty of reason to dive back in to complete the newly expanded checklists of things to hunt down.
