Silent Hill 4: The Room

also this is pretty good. 5/5

The game crashes every 20 minutes, so incredibly frustrating and impossible to get through.

very good and scary game , my fav silent hill game

Absolutely loved this. There was a bit of a learning curve to controls (different than normal), and 3 items i spent absolutely ages trying to locate, to the point I just googled it, but apart from that, atmosphere 10/10 and scariest silent hill for me.

At the time of initial release I found this game frustrating, with poor performance on console. I was so excited for this game so I pushed through it and never really found much enjoyment. I finally got the chance to play the game at a higher frame rate (this runs at 30 fps, but LosslessScaling gets it to 60) and its a decent game but nothing too special. The combat like most Silent Hill games isn't great. With the exception of the Apartment itself, the level design isn't as creepy or scary as 1, 2 or 3. This game has a sort of different vibe from the other Silent Hill games, and although I can see why some would like it, I personally do not. Rather than just the characters being awkward and weird in Silent Hill 2, in 4 the entire game is awkward and weird. The biggest issue that frustrates me is how there are items that are not just useless but make the game harder without telling you, and weapons that are worse than your starting weapon in every way imaginable. Its decisions like these that feel like a gamey punishment, rather than anything that fits within the theme. I think this is a game people who are huge Silent Hill fans, AND want to see a different interpretation of the formula. This should NOT be your first Silent Hill game.
