Silent Hill 5: Homecoming

[tiberium]

Just beat Silent Hill 5 on my 360, it got some pretty low reviews but I found it to be quite entertaining and it goes back to its oldschool gameplay roots with a much better graphics system and control scheme.

No longer is your character static and unable to make 360 degree turns, and being shit at using a weapon is a thing of the past since your character is a discharged army man.

So, my thoughts on the game are, rent it for the 360 because its a great way to get achievements.

Oh yeah, the soundtrack by Akira Yamoaka is fucking amazing like always.

Never played any of the Silent Hill games. Really can't say anything. Also note I'm a PC gamer though.

Well, download Silent Hill 3 for the PC then, you can get it from like any torrent site.

I used to have Silent Hill 1 for the PS1, and I got stuck on some puzzle where blood is on a piano and never beat it. I tried going back to it a few years later and I couldn't stand the controls, so I gave up. Haven't really paid any attention to the series since then, except I played a demo for the one where you're stuck in a room.

I totally remember that puzzle. Something about doves, crows and a few different kind of birds. That was hard as hell but I figured it out after a wile.

I played the first couple Silent Hill games but then lost interest. Homecoming does look pretty sweet tho. If I do get a horror title I think I will go with Dead Space tho. That looks sick.
