It promises a higher reliance on evasion than previous installments, removing the combat that has long been slated as one of the games weakest elements.
Playing the Wii version with headphones on in a darkened Konami booth, I was initially surprised by how good it looked. A number of filters and noise effects have been applied to the game engine to create a tense atmosphere reminiscent of horror movies such as The Blair Witch Project.
Immediately notable to fans of the series is the change of art style in the town of Silent Hill itself. Gone is the dark slimy world of previous installments, replaced by ice that, while not as creepy, produces a chilling atmosphere and feeling of familiarity."
