The most emotionally charged story of any piece of media I’ve ever experienced. The atmosphere is forever perfect, and the ending is genuinely the only thing that makes me cry everytime I witness it all over again.

Silent Hill 2 is so perfect. I hold it dear to me in a way that I hold no other video game, book, show or movie. Throughout all of my emotional ups and downs, I trust it to comfort me, entertain me and make me feel all the emotions every single time I stick the disc in my PS2 for another playthrough. No matter what is going on in my life, I fall back to SH2 every single time I need it, and it never stops feeling as melancholic, fresh and fulfilling as the very first time I played it.
