My first actual horror game playthrough, and damn does it hold up well. Silent Hill offers an ominous and devoid experience, paired with incredible ambience and a uniquely chilling atmosphere. The plot, while pretty basic, was delivered quite well with a good balance of gameplay and story elements. The controls which seemed clunky at first, were easily adaptable and served in favor of the gameplay and especially in high tension moments such as multiple enemy encounters and boss fights (While sometimes a bit frustrating, you have to cut the developers some slack, the moveable camera alone was quite impressive). Overall the presentation and execution, especially for an entirely 3D PSX title, are only praise worthy, and I can whole heartedly say that Silent Hill lived up to all of my expectations. Despite some instances of repetitive level design and enemy types/encounters, these pale in comparison to everything else the game has to offer. Very much looking forward to continuing this awesome series.
