Silent Hill HD Collection

Okay so recently I had been really wanting to play Silent Hill 3(probably due to Heather/Cheryl being in Dead By Daylight) again so I ended up buying this collection on the Xbox One since it's Backwards Compatible. I wasn't really familiar with how bad these ports of the game were when they released. I just assumed most of the HD remasters on the PS3/360 were good. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case with these games. I am not really going to go into specific details about these games as you can just look up videos about it on YouTube if you are really interested. It's a shame because I think these games deserved better. Anyway, that being said, having played some of Silent Hill 3, I didn't think it was all that bad. Although to be fair, I literally haven't played this game in years(when I last owned a PS2) so it would be hard for me point out differences to the original PS2 game unless you showed them to me running side by side. Although when you are actually in the town of Silent Hill, the way the fog is rendered seems very off. This is probably one of the most noticeable differences in the game alongside the new dub. It would have been nice had they kept the original dub like they did with Silent Hill 2. In my opinion, the 360 version of SH3 seems to run better than the PS3 version which has an uncapped framerate. Although, I do think the PS3 version got a patch that the 360 port didn't receive. I don't know if that fixed that problem or not. All in all, I do think the port of Silent HIll 3 is serviceable, but if you have the original game on PS2, you probably better off experiencing the game that way.

The disappointment with Silent Hill HD Collection is something I will always understand, but it did not impact my enjoyment of Silent Hill 2 and I do plan on playing Silent Hill 3 soon. At least it somewhat helps the problem of the declining availability of these games.
