Silent Hill 2 Remake

Thoughts

Spoilers Ahead!

Generally speaking, I really enjoyed the remake of Silent Hill 2. I don’t think it’s as fun to play as something like RE2R or RE4R, but I enjoyed the story. The “Otherworld” sections were my least favorite part of the game by far, especially in the hospital. This is one of those games where I’m glad to have played it, but I don’t think I’ll ever feel the need to play it again.

I still need to finish the original Silent Hill 2, though!

Progress

Main Story: Completed ✔️


2026 - November 6 - Friday:
Done!


2026 - November 1 - Sunday:
I’m a decent way into the prison section of the game now, and I like this area quite a bit more than the hospital. I haven’t had to go to the otherworld here yet, so I’m sure that will be a bit of a pain again.


2026 - October 19 - Monday:
I finally started the remake version of Silent Hill 2 last week, and I’m at the part where you need to get through the large apartment building. I’m really enjoying it so far, although I’m not sure if it’s quite as good as something like Resident Evil 2 Remake or Resident Evil 4 Remake. I will say, though, that the atmosphere is excellent. Navigating through Silent Hill and all of the fog while fending off nightmarish monsters is very unnerving.
