I rarely rely on reviews any more. I do take a few into consideration, but I really have to like the website. What really sells me on a game is the demo and/or watching footage on Youtube
For 5 bucks I'll pick up all 3, but I'm looking forward to Fighting Vipers. I loved that game on the Saturn and arcade. Could Fighter's Megamix be next?
If you just played the demo then let me just say the game gets better and more over the top. The soundtrack, controls, graphics are all fantastic with some funny video game humor thrown in. Wayforward has outdone themselves.
Aside from the frame rate issues, I really enjoyed this game and I'm not sure why it received mixed critical reception. It's creepy and the story kept me engaged all the way through.
As much as I love this series there are so many problems with the HD collection such as glitches, massive slow down, missing sound effects, voices out of sync etc. that I cannot recommend this game.Oh and don't get me started on how bad the water looks by Toluca Lake. Hopefully the upcoming patch will fix these issues.
There were so many more problems then just how bad Toluca Lake looked. It was the constant slow down, the audio voices being out of sync and missing sound effects that dragged this port down so bad. Apparently a patch is in the works for this title and Downpour.
This makes complete sense. When you arrive at Lake Toluca in SH 2 it looks horribly unfinished. I was so excited for this release only to be very disappointed how it turned out.
The Silent Hill HD collection is such a mess right now I don't even know where to begin with the list of bugs and issues plaguing this game. I hope they get some if not all of them fixed.
I only have 1 platinum trophy for Sonic's Collection. I can't wait to see what trophies are in the Silent Hill HD collection. I might go for a platinum with that one.
One of my favorite arcade games of all time, but I wish they would keep the roster to wrestlers from the 80's and 90's and not the boring modern day wrestlers.

Re: Turn the Pages of This Silent Hill: Book of Memories E3 Trailer

Re: Rockstar Not Attending E3 2012
no loss there
Re: Silent Hill HD Collection Ported from Incomplete Code
There were so many more problems then just how bad Toluca Lake looked. It was the constant slow down, the audio voices being out of sync and missing sound effects that dragged this port down so bad. Apparently a patch is in the works for this title and Downpour.
