That's awful.

I dunno. The HD version clearly looks worse in all those pics - and the only point of an HD version is that it looks better. Luckily I have an old PS3 and can just BC the original PS2 ones.DanteJay wrote:PS3 on the left and PS2 on the rightSpecially Cork wrote:I heard the HD collection is awful.

Hmm... I know these HD re-releases are a quick cash grab, but I can't say the change in fog density detracted from my enjoyment of the game. Maybe because I didn't play the originals?
Either way, I think it's a stretch to say this re-release is awful just because of this minor change. Most of the game is played in-doors anyway.
So I completed Silent Hill 3 on Saturday. This HD re-release of SH3 also suffered from crashes. It locked up my 360 about 5 times in total, which really pissed me off every time. That aside, SH3 is just not as good as SH2. However, there are some new surprises it brought to the table, which was really cool. Controls still suck. Good dialogue overall. Intriguing story. A bit short.DanteJay wrote:Silent Hill HD Collection - Xbox 360.
Silent Hill 2 (12hrs).
- Horrible controls.
- Great dialogue
- Sometimes monotonous and boring
- Horrible controls.
6.5/10
I just sold my copy of Mario Kart 7 this week. I think I played it once, but it really didn't seem like anything spectacular. Just like the last few weren'tnot just souLLy now wrote:Mario Kart 7. I've always liked the series, this one is virtually identical to the last few.
Been enjoying Fez too, good stuff.
Exactly. Sonic generations and sonic the hedgehog 4 at least attempted to pump new ideas into the tired 2d scrolled.Matisfaction wrote:I would admit that it did feel more like an "extra levels" expansion pack than an actual sequel. But I still quite enjoyed it.
But they were crap, at least you know what you're going to get with a 2d Mario game. Lets face it if nintendo changed things too much then fans would moan, Sunshine wasn't a bad game but it still received a battering for basically trying to be different.Smiley wrote:Exactly.
