The rhino is supposedly an end level character from Altered Beast. I have no recollection of him.

A friend of mine wants a new PC so I think I may sell him mine and build a new one. At the very least I'm giving him my tower itself so I'm picking up this one here. I love the cable management and the whole setup is perfect with air flow, component placement, etc. Plenty of room for ANY graphics cards or whatever else.

Coolermaster makes great PC cases, just don't buy anything that Cyberpower makes. They make horrible pre builts.

Silent Hill is done, its more of a cinematic experience than a game. I was expecting something way more fucked up for the ending, this game is so nice for a SH game, easily the most peaceful SH ever. I did start over and I love the new slutty Cybill. I have been to different rooms but its the same thing, find object that has arrow pointing at it to unlock door.

Cinematic experience? Did we play the same game?

It does? Could have fooled me.

I'm convinced that it's a Wii up-port. I am sure I saw it listed ageeeeeees ago for Wii 1.

I am dumbfounded at those scores. You do nothing in SH. You walk, solve the most basic of puzzles, and go in a linear path. The chases are a chaotic mess where there is little to no strategy at all except just get away. And that is the ENTIRE GAME. There is nothing to this game, I have no clue what these devs were trying to make. Is it the story that compells you, cause other SH games had better stories than this. Other Silent Hills had better environments, better gameplay, MUCH MUCH better puzzles, much more exploration, and of course actual strategy in getting away from enemies.

GG what about the game in terms of actual mechanics did you enjoy. What about it made you say "wow I love replaying this" cause walking and grabbing clearly marked objects in a game world does not seem compelling to me. And as you stated the chases got easy for you cause they just repeat over and over that there is nothing to do except run in the right course, maybe go out of your way to get a flare and that is about as interesting as it gets.

EDIT: saw some of the reviews, of course cause of the story blah blah blah. There is no gameplay! And seriously other SH games shit all over this games story and "psychology" bullcrap.

"The chases are a chaotic mess where there is little to no strategy at all except just get away " Jesus Christ.

I don't really have time right now to type up a reply, check the thread, all my impressions are there. Most people in our thread who played it liked it. Online there was a mixed reaction, the game is divise for reviewers and gamers. Reviews went from 9/10 to 6/10 and gamers either loved or hated it. From what I read on GAF, the Silent Hill die hards did not like it, the people who treated it as a new game loved it. In terms of your argument about comparisons to past Silent Hill's I have no point of reference so I cannot agree or disagree with them. All I know is that I greatly enjoyed Shattered Memories, I just wish it was 3 hours longer. But I replayed it's 5 hrs several times because of the differences when you play again - which are minor but welcome.

"the chases got easy for you cause they just repeat over and over" the chases got easy for me because I wasn't a headless chicken who kept getting caught like multiple reviewers/GAF users who cried like babies. On my 3rd run as I posted in my post before this, they got harder and more brutal.

So after beating Paper Mario. +so good+ I said (after researching possible other games to start), "Fuckit, I'm going to play Paper Mario Gamecube".

So far. AWESOME. Going from N64 to Gamecube is like jumping two generations into the future. It looks amazing. I still miss the human-sized N64 controller, but other than that I feel like I've got a brand new console.

So that's what I'll be playing for the next 30 hours or so.

You never played TTYD before? If not, keep at it, it's bloody brilliant.

BUGSIE!!

When Fractured Soul comes to your e-shop (3DS) --IF-- it hasn't already, you --MUST-- get this game!! It's got elements of Mighty Switch Force with a bit of Contra thrown in for good measure!

Silent Hill Wii was a cool game, but it definitely didn't match the originals. I think it was the best one since SH3 though.

On silent Hill

On the chases can you do something other than run? I know they have the hide in something which there is only like 4 of those the entire game and they are completely useless cause the second you leave the room its the same thing. Getting a flare is the closest thing to strategy. Other than that you just need to know where to go which isnt hard after a while. These play out exactly the same over and over. I am not saying they are hard, I am saying there is nothing there gameplay wise except run.

This "game" is more like Heavy Rain except HR actually had far more things for the player to, but the same simplistic thing. Its a guided cinematic experience. If you want a stress free experience where you have a story told for you while you do trivial actions on a controller then yes this "game" is for you. Anyone wanting an actual game to play will be disappointed.

And again the story is very basic and almost PG13.
