Silent Hill 4: The Room
This review contains spoilers
Being the most divisive Silent Hill game, there is quite a lot to talk about here. Starting with the bad; wow this game can be janky at times lol. Eileen is way too slow, the movement does not pair well with the constantly changing camera angles, the combat tries to be something different than the other games but is just more-less the same thing with a strong attack meter, the enemies range from dead in two hits to literally unkillable, and don't even get me started on the voice acting. Despite all these flaws however, Silent Hill 4 still manages to create an amazing atmosphere like its fellow entries in the series. The level design is so great and varied and it always keeps you on your toes, dumping fantastic pieces of lore that don't just build on this game, but the whole series as well. The first-person apartment sections are the highlight of this game, especially when the hauntings start. It's obvious that the infamous P.T. grabbed a lot of inspiration from this title and that is nothing to scoff at. I believe that if the flaws weren't there or at least lessened to an extent, this would by far be the scariest Silent Hill. Regardless, the game still has these glaring issues that can't just be looked over for the sake of good atmosphere. All in all, it's still a great game. Funny how this is often considered the worst of the original games but still is on a tier way above anything not done by Team Silent. TL;DR great game, major flaws.
