A pixelated cutout of Pyramid Head in the credits teases what could have been. Too bad it was never finished, as the game abruptly ends once you reach the equivalent of Wood Side Apartments.

And unlike the other entries on this list, Soundless Mountain 2 isn't a mod for an existing game.
#SILENT HILL GAME TRIAL#
The 2D perspective, the look of the world, the way combat is handled: Soundless Mountain is just as much a trial run as it is a tribute. The large heads and tiny bodies of its characters give the (limited) cast a sort of Charlie Brown-aesthetic, as if this were all just a really disturbing cartoon special.Īs someone who enjoyed Lone Survivor, it's interesting to return to this game and spot the similarities. Released as part of TIGSource's demakes competition in 2008, Soundless Mountain 2 is quite possibly the most adorable remake ever designed. Too many to count (Little Big Planet series)īefore making a name for himself with the 2D survival horror game Lone Survivor, developer Jasper Byrne created this NES-style remake of Silent Hill 2.

It's certainly a reconstruction unlike anything the series has seen before. And it shows, right down to the look of the health drinks and the cries of the monsters. "Countless hours of watching/recording in-game footage, navigating through level editors and texture viewers brought you this custom adventure map," notes author Vladimyr on the Minecraft forums. There's no mining or crafting to speak of, just a dedicated survival adventure. A Letter from Silent Heaven isn't just some Silent Hill-themed texture pack, it's a meticulous recreation of Silent Hill 2. To be fair, there is a lot of creative effort on display in this mod. I'm shocked there aren't birds singing in the distance. Instead of cautiously exploring fog-drenched alleyways and side streets, your avatar jauntily jogs down the road on a cloudless day. Some extra ranks in sneaking will also save your life when you have to hide from a certain pyramid-headed horror.Ī Letter from Silent Heaven finally answers the question: what would Silent Hill 2 be like if it took place on a sunny afternoon? The bright, colorful trappings inherent to Minecraft make this mod feel like more of a parody than a tribute. Hope you dropped some points in unarmed combat, because melee weapons are your lifeline in this ammo-scarce suburb, not unlike the real Silent Hill. And because the quest starts with you being captured by the Enclave, all your fancy items and equipment get shelved for this outing. You get one quest early on stating "Enjoy your eternal stay in Silent Hill" and no quest markers. And once you track the mysterious White Noise radio station to their dig site, you may end up meeting the same fate.įair warning: playing this mod takes patience. Naturally, the Enclave decided to do a little spelunking in this haunted town and suffered the consequences. As the story goes - and there's a fair amount of story to be found here - the "great war" that devastated Fallout's world led to Silent Hill being "sealed away" underground. There are still some big ugly bugs to look out for.As if there wasn't already enough weird stuff happening in Fallout: New Vegas, someone had to throw Silent Hill into the mix. Horror No More?: Just because the game went in a more action-based direction doesn't mean the horror is gone. Monstrous Mandibles: Every monster you encounter throughout the game is stranger than the last, from freaky starfish lips here to mutant tentacles.
More than anything, this game is a Sci-Fi horror adventure, featuring grotesque monsters of every shape and size. It’s not even the zombie mayhem fans of Resident Evil are used to.
Resident Evil 5 isn’t your typical ghosts and ghouls horror story. More than the monsters and the mystery, which are excellent on their own, you can also look forward to playing with a friend, which provides its own unique horror experience. The setting isn’t nearly as visually dark as in previous games, and the theme of the game follows bio-terroristic threats, mutations, and the dark truth of a corporate underbelly, while Agents Redfield and Alomar are led deeper into the mystery of the storyline. But Resident Evil 5 has to be doing something right, because not only was it the best-selling game of the franchise, it was also Capcom’s best-selling game ever as of September 2017. It’s also more of an RPG action game than the other Resident Evil games, which tend to stick to the survival horror genre more than anything. The plot of the game involves an investigation of a bio-terrorism threat by Bioterrorism Assessment Agents Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar in Kijuju, a fictional region of Africa. For the first time in the Resident Evil series, you can play a two-player cooperative game.
