you know.
silent hill 2 has one of the best stories i've ever fucking seen in a game. some of the best sounds. some of the best graphics (it looks like you're playing a fucking david lynch film!). but the gameplay is just so... hmmm... i dunno. i'm near the end of it (i think; it sure seems that way) and it just hasn't really... i dunno. i think their focus on realism kinda brought it down a notch, ie "you can only look at the map in the light" and "you fight like an idiot because .. you're not skilled at weapons." Yay, it's realistic, but that makes it unfun. metal gear solid, though, i actually love those, it took me forever to get into them (my jaded teenage self went, "fuck those games, it's like playing a fucking movie fuck it!") but i realized later that everything about them was really, really clever and fun. i definitely think snake eater was the best of the series and mgs4 is going to be fucking amazing.
