Konami
Developer: Konami  | Too long a series of Resident Evil had no worthy competitor in the genre of Survival Horror. Somewhere in the background were the followers of the true pioneer - Alone in The Dark, but just as Dune 2 is considered the founder of RTS, RE, and it was a real benchmark for games, horror movies, which have then guided numerous imitators. |
 | What we expect from continuing? Of course, not revolutionary change. Let the developers kept all the good that was in the first part, added a modern graphics, pushed the boundaries of the misty haze (which, incidentally, made it possible to save resources and consoles), generally did a decent competitor to RE4 and RE0, and while they do not - not easily "carried" to Resident Evil: Code Veronica. And what have we gained? |
 | What you have to do? Of course, any decent American should understand the mysteries of the city ... because it may inadvertently and save the world, is not it? For this purpose it is necessary not only and not use the eye muscles and, in fact most of the time it will take a decision riddles, puzzles and other mozgodrobilok. What's there shooting a zombie! You'll wander through the locations, collect key items, combine and apply them directly as a real kvestovik. You can not sidestep the newspaper, notes, and generally any readable text, they can meet the numbers that are key to the next puzzle. But sometimes there is no hint at all - works on the principle educated bet. What has frightened, did not you? In fact, it's not that bad, and bought the magazine with full passage is still necessary. Themselves on the right! Very convenient to realize map, thanks to her you can tell where you've been, what doors are closed, what mysteries are solved, etc. Finally, in each new room character automatically turns his head to the side all the interesting subjects. |
 | A monster? What monsters? Hardly anyone of them will scratch your precious skin. Weapons, ammunition and first aid kits with more than enough to completely safe walking on the second version of Silent Hill. Enemies appear somewhere ahead and kill them may well unless it is very lazy. There are no evil bosses, no real threat. More than that - none of the local horror stories can not really scare you. You feel that you have to kill, not because you're afraid of someone, but just because you have enough ammo, and the model monster beautifully twitches before dying. |
 | And back again to the chart.Despite the fact that in some places still is noticeable that SH2 - and really play the new generation, yet the possibility of attachment involved obscenities. The world is not too detailed detailed, and in any case, the fog, turned out in a clear vestige of dignity, hides many of the beautiful items available. Slightly improves the situation a variety of graphic effects, but their owners PS2 is already difficult to surprise. |
 | Need some lessons? Well, I can say one simple thing: the game is good, but it did not meet our expectations. It is not so terrible (by the way, there is evidence that the developers deliberately excised something), not as pretty as we would like. This is not simply there is nothing new, but trying to preserve, not all. Someone accused Capcom to copy their own ideas and cloning hits? Excuse me, but it's clearly better than the second time to copy other people's ideas and their own form of additional and already disturbing freaks. If the series Alone in The Dark in the face of the fourth part renounced their ancestors and crawled in the wake of RE (successful or unsuccessful - is a separate question), then Silent Hill froze in place, completely lost orientation. If development was not concerned itself Konami, the game would have failed, but in this case came just a quality product, but in any case is not a new word in the genre. Incidentally, they say, and sales (especially in Japan) that would be big enough for all is not as heavily hyped project. |
