Silent Hill 4: The Room

I was very happy and surprised to see this available again on PC! And even better, it plays very well without any modifications added. Looking forward to diving into it this month.

Ich besitze das Spiel sogar noch als Original für den PC, doch bei GOG eine etwas verbesserte Version wie Volle HD Unterstützung und besseren Cutszenes musste ich einfach zuschlagen! Ok desweiteren besitze ich kein DVD-Laufwek mehr, weils mein PC Gehäsue nicht zulässt. xD Trotzdem super Spiel. Zwar eins der schwarzen Schafe der Reihe, aber ich mag es auch wenn der zweite Teil im SPiel wirklich teils die Nerven herausfordern. Ich liebe die komplette Silent Hill Reihe und wenn Konami endlich Geld machen will, dann sollten sie auch die anderen Teile, vor allem 1,2 und 3 Für den PC endlich bzw. neu aufsetzen. Damit würden sie den Fans sowas von mehr als nur einem Gefallen tun. Ich würde mich aufjedenfall freuen und am bestena uch nochmal eine bessere Homecoming version. Ach was laber ich da alle Teile Für den PC und jeder wäre Happy. :3 Aufjedenfall kaufgrund als Fan der Reihe und der Preis von nem 10er ist vollkommen inordnung vielen dank GOG!!!!

Finally this happend! Im so happy i just hope in future there will be SH2, SH3 also here! :)

Silent Hill: The Room has some of the greatest highs and lowest lows of the original Team Silent quadrilogy. Any self-respecting horror gamer should experience it, but you should brace yourself for some questionable design choices. The setup is one of the best in any horror story, period. You, Henry Townshend, one day wake up in your room and find your door locked from the inside. There's no key. You can look outside through windows, but you can't open them. The only way out is through a huge hole in your bathroom. I get goosebumps just talking about it! This hole will lead you to nightmarish alternate realities and back to the relative safety of your apartment. You don't actually visit the titular town, but the game's story is still strongly tied to it, so don't listen to the purists saying it's not a "real" SH game. Creature design is great for the most part, especially the twins which make your skin crawl even the 50th time you see them pointing at you. The story is not told as elegantly as SH 2 and 3, but it's got some very creepy themes and uses the serial killer concept to its full potential. Now for the bad stuff. The combat was never the strong point of the franchise, but here it can get frustrating because of the insanely unreliable aiming. You can't really change target lock, so whenever fighting multiple enemies, you just have to hope that Henry won't aim at the furthest enemy like an absolute imbecile. Still, it's not much trouble on normal difficulty. The real problem is the last third of the game, which takes you through the exact same levels again, most of which already had backtracking. So you can go through a location 3-6 times. It's neither fun nor scary, just a very annoying way to stretch the game. You're sent on boring fetch quests at a point that should be the most climactic. I'd much rather see a game 2h shorter with better pacing. Fortunately, the ending itself is pretty solid and saves the experience. Now let's hope for SH 2+3 on GOG.

Thank you Gog for finally making this game available to play! hopefully we can get 2 &3 in the future. If you love horror and never played 4 get on it, still good and if you're worried that you haven't played 1-3 don't worry, the game is its own thing. Japan always makes good horror stuff and this one is no different really creeped me out throughout the 9 hours. Explore and make sure to save your nutrition drinks and med-kits until second half, don't stress about Eileen getting hurt, just save a Holy Candle for her before last fight. Make sure you play with a good set of headphones, audio in this series is always on point and adds so much to the experience.
