How I Survived Survival Horror

What’s Your Name, Honey?
The other night I got home and while trying to pay some bills accidentally finished Silent Hill 2. For those of you who have played the first Silent Hill, you already know what’s going on, but if you haven’t, here’s a quick synopsis: You’re a guy who has a serious problem with dirty hospital bathrooms. You announce to the hot nurse (pictured above) that they’ve got a “code brown” in the 2nd floor lavatory. She gives you some “I’ve got no eyes or mouth” bullshit and so you enlist the help of crazy ex-girlfriend. You know the one with the tatoos and the piercings? You realize it was a mistake when she brings over her friends Funk Demon and Dr. Neckbone.
Honestly, I can’t describe this game to anybody. I’ll tell you this much: it made me afraid to leave my house. At one point, I had to put down the controller, walk away and read Babar. But it looked great, played great, and as you know, wholesale zombie killing never gets old.
