TGR: Silent Hill Shattered Memories Hands-On Preview

There has always been a problem with Silent Hill. No, it's not the underground cult that has lead the citizens of this accursed town to their unholy deaths. It also had nothing to do with the troubled souls that seem to constantly wander through the place looking to find/resurrect/avenge their significant others. To be honest, the biggest problem with Silent Hill has always been its combat, which is a comparable experience to hitting an airborne piñata while standing blindfolded on a moving rollercoaster. The developers of the upcoming Silent Hill: Shattered Memories decided to remedy this situation in the best way possible: removing the combat entirely.

Really excited about how this sounds, but having Climax behind the wheel makes me afraid in an unpleasant way.

I worry that the game won't reach its full potential, but it looks promising. RE5 was more of an action game instead of a horror game (I know RE4 was very action-oriented, but at least it had spooky moments), and this looks to be the complete opposite. It's all about scares and survival, and that's a very good thing, IMO.

IGN gave it several Wii-specific awards from the last E3: best graphics tech, best adventure game and overall best game of the show.

If this game lives up to the early impressions, it's AAA-level.
