If you've played other Silent Hill games in the past it might be a bit different than your used to. The game adds a little more action and not as much as an engaging storyline as others. The graphics are very nice though and controls are pretty good. It has a nice feel to it but seems to lack something that made other Silent Hill's in the past special. Perhaps it's due to the fact that it was a different team that developed this one that made it a bit different. All in all if you're a hardcore Silent Hill or even just a horror game fan I'm sure you will definately enjoy the game no matter what, seeing as there are so few horror games that are out in the current gen market. If your new to Silent Hill you might want to pick up a previous one like part 2 or 3 to get a good feel of what Silent Hill really is.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I love silent hill games they are creepy and tend to have a plot line that drags you in. You get scared but you continue to play because you need to know why and what's going on. This game is not as good as the others but it's still has the plot that pulls you in. The lighting in the game is too dark though. In some areas you can turn the lighting all the way up and still not see anything which is kind of hinders the game play. Besides that it's still a great play.

The new Silent Hill brings many changes, some good but most bad, to the series. I first want to say that the new development company has done a horrible job at keeping up with Team Silent (previous developer). Some of the things I liked about the game are the fact that the story-line is OK, the monsters are sweet (but difficult, I'll get to that in a minute,) the graphics are excellent and the characters are very creative. I recommend it to survival horror fans, but I do NOT recommend it to major Silent Hill fans looking for another great Silent Hill game. The only way that I can see someone enjoying this game is if they didn't like the previous titles because this game feels nothing like them at all. In fact, the game is absolutely horrible when compared to previous. Right now I'm going to tell you exactly why it is so bad and why Double Helix should be shut down for turning the greatest video game franchise of all time into a low budget pile of junk: 1. DEAD MONSTERS DISAPPEAR - If your a major Silent hill fan like me, you've probably noticed that in all of the previous titles, when you kill a creature it's dead body stays in the spot you killed it in, even when you leave the room. They do not disappear. This adds a major level of realism to the game, but sadly this new title completely removes it. Now, bodies disappear within seconds of being killed. This was a major major disappointment to me, MAJOR. 2. NO EASY MODE - Another great thing about Silent Hill in the past was that all of the games (with the exception of 0rigins) had an easy mode. And not only was there an easy mode, the easy mode was actually easy, unlike in Resident Evil where the easy mode is still pretty difficult. Well, this new game has no easy mode, just Normal and Professional and the Normal mode is VERY DIFFICULT. Health items are very hard to find and through most of the game you will be using a very small selection of melee weapons and not guns because there are also very limited bullets. I had never in my life had so much difficulty in a Silent Hill game, VERY DISAPPOINTED, but I did finally beat the game. 3. VERY SMALL AMOUNT OF WEAPONS - Silent Hill 4 gave us tons of awesome melee weapons, from golf clubs to torches you could light to small axes, they were literally sweet as anyone could imagine and 0rigins gave us cool things like TV's and toasters and way more. Well, Double Helix managed to screw that up too. This new title has a VERY SMALL selection of weapons, even smaller when it comes to melee weapons, though the ol' steel pipe and knife are there. When you bump into objects they move in this game, it would have been really nice if you could pick up objects and throw them at monsters but nope, you cant. 4. YOU CAN TELL ITS LOW BUDGET - Just by playing it you can tell it's very low budget and does not even try to keep up with the level of excellence offered in previous titles. After you play this game you will seriously think that the developers have never touched a Silent Hill game in their lives. The controls are clunky, some of the areas do not match what was shown in previous games, the flashlight is horrible, it is pretty short (even shorter then previous titles) and it just overall does not feel like Silent Hill. In the future, if Double Helix develops another Silent Hill game, I will think twice before buying it. If your a Silent Hill fan, you may want to RENT this game, not buy it. Trust me, its not worth it.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Alright, Silent Hill continues his legacy with a very good survivor horror. This time, Alex Shepperd is trapped in this new nightmare, looking for his brother, Josh. The combat gets back with a new aiming system. You have to choose the right moment to turn on you flashlight (monster are atracted to it). But I think the best thing in this game is the story. You'll meet family shepperd, and find out Alex's feelings about his parents and his brother. To forgive or get revenge are the main options in this game. Of course, if you survive it. While games like Resident Evil gone to action, Silent Hill still tracking the Survival (and psychological) horror. Sometimes the best option is to run and try to avoid combat. The puzzles are still there, playing around with Alex's mind. Silent Hill Homecoming also have multiple endings (as always). I sugest you to do your ending without looking for the others. After doing that, you can look on the web and find out what you can do to switch Alex's story. There are key moments in the game you should save your progress on a different file. Of course, I won't tell you when. Just do it when you think it's best. Good luck and nice nightmares!Vollständige Rezension lesen
As an avid SH player playing SH1, 2,3,4, and Shattered Memories, I had reservations. One - it was for PS3 and Two - Shattered Memories in my opinion sucked completely. This game is from a western developement team, as did Shattered Memories (hence the reservations), so it has a different feel from SH 1-4. However, it stays close to the overall ambience and psycho thrills of previous SH games (Shattered Memories excluded). An added bonus is the heavy use of Akira Yamaoka's talent since he aided in sound effects and awesome soundtrack. The graphics were good although they show too much teeth in the characters' mouths. It kept me too focused on that sometimes instead of the story line but that is just me. :) Personally the story line its self was enjoyable and it is a good game for someone who is experiencing Silent Hill for the first time. For all the hardcore fans- there are noticible differences but don't zero in on them too much and you will have a good time.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Let me say this first: I am a die-hard Silent Hill fan. I have played every game in the series except for Downpour (I will be playing it next) and Book of Memories (because I'm not buying the Play Station Vista). Now that we've gotten that out of the way... Silent Hill Homecoming is not your traditional Silent Hill game, but honestly I didn't expect it to be. In a day and age where Call of Duty is the most popular PS3 game series on the market original Silent Hill games just wouldn't sell well and I understand that. For a Silent Hill game that's appealing to the first person shooter market I thought Homecoming was absolutely amazing. Then again, I thought Silent Hill: Shattered Memories was amazing as well and it was very different from every game in the Silent Hill series. I guess most Silent Hill fans are stuck in their ways. I can appreciate change. Another reviewer pointed out that Silent Hill: Homecoming was difficult and did not have an 'Easy' mode and that's true. Homecoming is very shooter focused, so you have to be able to aim which is hard for most people. Personally, I did not have too hard of a time with it. If I got stuck I simply looked up a walk-through. I loved that the puzzles weren't as difficult as most Silent Hill games, but that they weren't dumbed-down. Oh, and I tried playing it on PC and it was awful. I basically just bought a PS3 so I could play this game and I'm very happy. Overall, great game. Would recommend, would play again.Vollständige Rezension lesen
In my opinion, although this game got many negative reviews about bugs, I recommend ti play once in your life if you love Silent Hill franchise. I love monster designs and the ambient environment that make me disturbed and enjoyed the game. I think this game still looks in 2021, after I played about an hour, this game still provide the terrorifying for me. If you love Silent Hill, you should have this one in your collection.

Silent Hill: Homecoming (Also known as Silent Hill 5 or Silent Hill V) is the 6th instalment of the famous horror series, Silent Hill. Silent Hill: Homecoming follows the story of a soldier returning home from war, Alex Shepherd. The story follows Alex’s search for his brother through his hometown of Shepherd’s Glenn, which on Alex’s return home after being discharged from the Armed Forces, is now a hellish nightmare filled with strange disappearances and, of course, monsters. There has been a lot of scepticism about Silent Hill: Homecoming’s development, as it hasn’t been made by series developer Team Silent in house at Konami, but instead by American developer Double Helix, part of a merge with Shiny Entertainment & The Collective (Marc Eco’s Getting Up, Star Wars Episode III). Looking at their past games library, and the fact that they aren’t Japanese like the original developers, it’s easy to see why lots of fans have been sceptical and generally against the idea of a full console Silent Hill being developed by them. However, the end result of a different team isn’t a complete disaster, but isn’t 100% perfect either. What has remained story about the Team Silent touch however is Team Silent member Akira Yamoka and his music. Silent Hill: Homecoming’s sound track is excellent and is very much up to standard in comparison to the other Silent Hill games. The soundtrack ranges from industrial during a boss encounter, peaceful and calming when you’re talking to a friend (Like the cut scene with Elle) and tense and ominous like during a boss battle. There is very little or no complaint with the sound track, voice acting included, which is also pretty good. The combat system has very clearly been changed, and has definitely increased the speed and the action during the combat parts of the game. The first thing to say about this is that it does not affect the horror, and the more action oriented fighting doesn’t mean the rest of the scary bits aren’t scary. The battle system itself though, does have its issues. Dodging attacks can be pretty frustrating at times, because the time between you pressing O and Alex actually moving is sometimes a little bit delayed, which can make precise dodging nearly impossible, not because you couldn’t learn the press it just that bit earlier to compensate for the delay, but because sometime it is delayed and sometimes it isn’t. The other annoying thing about dodging is that sometimes it doesn’t move you in the right direction, or at all. Also, if you’re fighting a monster and try to dodge while you’re in a corridor, you’re definitely going to get hit and there’s very little you can do other than shoot or run. The good thing about the combat system though is that it makes fighting the monsters much more fun... when you’re winning, of course. Pulling off combos and beating the monsters into a bloody mess then finishing them off by stabbing the pipe through their head or chopping their head clean off is a very welcome addition. The battle system, by combination of the real-time damage effects and great sounds, really makes you feel the crunch of pipe into that Nurse’s skull. Lovely. For the most part though, I’d have to say the combat is as good as the previous games to control, but with harder monsters and added things like combos, finishers and dodges (If it works). 9/10 scoreVollständige Rezension lesen
I actually wanted this for my collection. I have another copy of the game and I like very much. The item that I bought here is exactly what I wanted. Brand New Sealed!!!
