If anyone knows, could you possibly tell me which shots are from the correct version. They aren't labeled, and look fairly similar except for the brightness on a few.

ApexHell4625d ago

first one is hd second is pc

e-p-ayeaH4625d ago

i think is the other way around because no way it would look worse.

ApexHell4624d ago

@E-p-ayeah

i have the pc version it looks like the second screens

BubbleSniper4624d ago (Edited 4624d ago )

you can easily see that the PC version has more effects in place and looks sharper.
I can tell even with examiners usual shitty, tiny-ass screen shots. not to mention the PC version can be displayed at a much higher resolution than the HD collection. Sorry Konami Ive been playing your HD collection with the original character voices for many years now. LMAO!

BTW, if you want to TRULY know which shots are HD collection and don't want to take my word for it, then I present to you the cheatsheet:

hit refresh if pictures dont initially show

dirthurts4624d ago

HD is first, follow by Pc. It's right there in the article.

josephayal4625d ago

Omg the PS3 version looks 3 X Better, good job Konami

PCE4625d ago

You're mistaken with the screenshots. The PC version is the one that looks better than the PS3 version.

Kyosuke_Sanada4625d ago

I still want to hear why Konami didn't include part Silent Hill 4: The Room. I really liked Henry Townsend and returning to my apartment after a journey used to freak me the heck out.

Mr Tretton4625d ago

SH4 is just not considered a classic. I think in fact they did state that in one way or another.

They aren't going to spend money on redoing something that didn't sell that well and most fans didn't like.

Kyosuke_Sanada4625d ago

I see. Well I guess Ill have to stick with the PS2 version of SH4.

hardandsloppy4625d ago

They said if this sells they will make another collection, which means they are holding out to make another one with Silent hill 4, and most likely silent hill origins

Ramas4624d ago

and i hope shattered memories, witch i liked a lot. In other words SH4, origins and memories would make a perfect SH collection NR2

Wolfie4625d ago (Edited 4625d ago )

i hope they are fake because they look bad compared to the PC version... and why the hell PS3 version is missing flowers and window?

fooxy4625d ago

Actually there is nothing fake about them at all..

Wolfie4625d ago

actually, there is, why the PS3 version is missing so much textures?

LightofDarkness4625d ago

Some sharper textures here and there, but there's also pieces missing from the original. So it's not lazy, it looks like they went out of their way to remove things and make it look unnecessarily gritty :/

I mostly disagree with Downpour's position. Yeah, the game is not amazing by any stretch of the imagination but is much better than the HD Collection and Homecoming. The main issue is the performance, but that was mitigated by the patches, especially on the PS3. Personally, I put it a little behind Origins and The Room.

Having Restless Dreams as a different entry from Silent Hill 2 is also a choice.

bfrye26185d ago

Normally, we would not consider it a different game (Restless Dreams), but since it had a very different critical reception and had new content, it was allowed. As for Downpour, I would agree, but since that one is subjective, we let him make his case for the placement.

gold_drake185d ago

silent hill 2 is definitely the best one out of those.

for me personally, the whole ritual/cult stuff was always so weird to me in all the other games.

CrimsonWing69185d ago

No disrespect but I put SH2 over 1. 1 is fantastic, but 2 took it all up a level.

bfrye26184d ago

We agree, that is why the writer put it in top place!

100% agree! SH2 is undoubtedly a stone cold classic.

gold_drake347d ago

i played a couple of months ago for the first time.

i agree that its a great survival game, but i think the minute u realise you can "kill" them, its takes alot of the initial fear out of it.
the same thing happened to me in Siren Blood Curse.

but its definitely one of the best games, when you start looking into the lore and the symbolism

1nsomniac347d ago

Never played it. I had moved on from PlayStation since then. So looking forward to the remake. Hope it’s not too cheesy tho.

P_Bomb347d ago

Pyramid Head or Red Pyramid. Which do you guys call him?

Pickledpepper347d ago

I've just brought the silent hill collection for the ps2 and absolutely loving it

Knushwood Butt347d ago

Nice.

I have the games, just no PS2.

Pickledpepper347d ago

I have a ps2 for sale and a n64 lol

how is it after the patches? Aren't there also more to come?

Amplitude734d ago (Edited 734d ago )

Did people not like the Mafia 2 remake? I got so into it. Thought it was amazing. Never played the original.

Some of these are fitting but I can't help but feel like the author just has nostalgia for the original Mafia 2 here. Dmc Collection on PS4 is fiiiiine its just a collection of PS2 games and the PS3 performance was not amazing. The point is to just have the PS2 games for a new gen of people. Crysis Remastered is also totally fine and has been patched and updated to death since launch. The original version essentially ran on one CPU core and they couldn't fix it let alone get that running on console/switch so they had good reason to do what they did to boost interest in Crysis before the Crysis 4 announcement

Lots of way worse remasters out there lol GTA, THPS HD, that Mario 3D All Stars trash, etc

jeenyus734d ago

That's the issue, you haven't played the original.
The new one is slightly better looking but it's bugged af by comparison.

monkey602734d ago

So in essence ... 2020 the year of bad remasters

Army_of_Darkness733d ago

Sounds like a case of quick cash grabs during the pandemic.
