The Silent Hill game that was so trash, Japan didn't even want it. It is almost indescribable how offensively far a dev team can miss the point of an established series. Some would say it was their emphasis on adding depth to the combat, but I argue that it's only worse than the original games.

And the shitstorm doesn't stop there, the entirety of its visuals range between ugly walls of rust or drabs of grey, making exploring negative fun. The story manages to be nonsensical and over-simplistic at the same time, none of the characters are unique or even remotely charming, their obsession with blood and gore is just obnoxious, and the enemy designs can be narrowed down to naked depictions of birth/brother symbolism. It's all just so abhorrent.

The only people I imagine appreciating this game are ones that played it when they were young. As someone that was just catching up to the SH train back in 2008, I was dumbfounded by how awful this game turned out.
