Invalid characterset or character set not supported Addendum to my Silent Hill review





Addendum to my Silent Hill review
February 12, 2010

I know I gave the game a 6/10 and I do still stand by that from a general gaming perspective, but I won't feel right until I post this small addendum. After all, sometimes it takes a while for things to fully sink in with a game.

I have to stress how the endings are designed to hit you based on your personality. The ending I received was built for me, music and all, and it hasn't stopped affecting me since I saw it. I know I mention the fact that the game should be played through to get the "best" ending, but in thinking over the game today I realized that's a bit of a misleading term. Any ending you get will be the best for you because it has been tailored to what your beliefs and motivations in life are.

While it's still true that most gamers will not want to play this a second time and thus might need to consider carefully before buying the game, I do think, in retrospect, this aspect of the experience was not made apparent enough in my review.

My Hello Kitty review, on the other hand, I have nothing to add to.
