Oh man, where do I even start with this game, Silent Hill 2? So, when it dropped last year, everyone was psyched about the PS5 Pro enhancements. But guess what? Yup, didn’t really meet what folks were hoping for. I mean, how many of us have been there, right? Expectations are sky-high, and then… boom, let down. Anyway, the whole gaming world—okay, maybe not the whole world, just the fans, but still—are crossing their fingers that Konami and Bloober Team will finally get it right. I’m honestly just sitting here like, “Is it really gonna happen?”
Alright, so Eurogamer (the guys who get all the inside scoops) mentioned that Bloober Team actually said they’re on it. They dropped this statement about collaborating with the publisher for a fix. It’s like, “Okay, cool. But when??” I’m as patient as anyone—but come on!
Dropping into Reddit threads is wild. Seriously, the way people talk about this game, it’s like they’re airing grievances at an open mic night. One person’s like, “I’m over it, man.” It’s exactly the kind of brutal honesty you’d expect from someone who’s spent hours and hours banging their head against the console. Honestly, who wouldn’t feel that way when the PS5 Pro version is supposed to be the shiny toy but turns out, not so much.
But hey, it’s not all doom and gloom. Despite all the tech hiccups, Silent Hill 2 was a rockstar when it launched. People bought it like hotcakes—over a million copies in just one weekend! That’s not nothing, right? It makes you wonder, though. Like, what makes a game grab hold of our imaginations even when it trips over its own feet sometimes? Anyway—oh, right, the details: if you’re up for it, you can snag it on PS5 or PC. Basic version’s $69.99, and the Deluxe Edition, which throws in some extras like a digital artbook and this quirky Pyramid Head mask pizza box thing (I can’t even), goes for $79.99.
Maybe you’ll love it, maybe not. But whatever. That’s life, right? Just roll with it.
