The game is definitely polished and performs very nicely on my vanilla ps5. Lots of jump scares, and lots of cool and interesting puzzles. It’s a great remake.

This game is so fun and pays homage to the original. Amazing story with better combat/gameplay. Worth the money. I hope they remake SH1 and 3.

Silent Hill was a classic back in the day and this remake brings back the nostalgia but remastered quality takes the cake. It's so much more engaging and easier to understand the story. The playthrough and puzzles are amazing and well thought out.

Best Buy is my go to for buying new physical games since they are reliable & they leave the games sealed unlike GameStop!
Hopefully Best Buy continues to sell physical games for as long as possible!

If you’re unfamiliar with this series and looking to dive into it - play the original, to learn how this was butchered. As a silent hill devotee, I knew from the beginning this was a doomed release. Despite its critical acclaim, I can’t see the appeal. Blinders maybe? Or willful ignorance of those who want -more- of the thing they love. Konami has done this exact thing before, and previously, they’d failed. (I have a two hour long video on the what, how and why - to be released after I’ve finished all the game has to offer : if you’re an editor email me, I’m moderately popular. Regardless; This time was a success because of people’s short memories, and true fans moving away from the series. I wish I could say this is an “A for effort”, but at its core this is fundamentally flawed. I can appreciate that Ito was able to bring his true designs to life, I can appreciate what the developers -thought- they were doing, but the story of James and Mary is not enhanced via learning about a depressed bartender. This detracts from the story, and shows those developing it think they’re more familiar with a story than the team that first brought it to life.
The graphics are beautiful, but at what cost?
