Silent Hill 3 is polished but not innovative, and this game is innovative but not polished. After Silent Hill 2, Team Silent was split up to create the two games, and with how they perfectly compliment the others' weaknesses, it's sad to think about what might have happened if they were allowed to work together one more time. As it stands though, this game's amazing horror concepts are let down by controls that are clunky even by the series' standards, long escort sections, and a narrative presentation that gets even murkier than a mysterious horror game should be. It's worth a look for its uniqueness, but I wouldn't blame anyone for not finishing it.
