Zero Punctuation: Silent Hill 2
And this is how Yahtzee reviews a game he actually likes :)) As for the game… i have yet to decide if it’s effects on me are maybe too dangerously strong… i mean it’s so scarring that I wonder if one should recomend it… but then again that’s the reason one would: strong impact. My question though is this: is it just for men, or are women as troubled by it? And no, for those of you that don’t know the game i don’t mean because it’s got shooting which men enjoy, it’s because, (i’m happy to say ) like abook or movie, it deals with human issues, but it’s telling some man-type guilt situations so I’m wondering about that.
PS: the thing that sticks with me from this review is the phase: “there’s only you, james and the town, and after a while you start to wonder which one of them is his biggest enemy” , which coupled with that silly graphic of 3 guins pointing into his mouth really stuck into my brain, because what is more terryfing than the thought that the hell he’s in is of entirely his own creation?
