This version is amazing to say the least.

Like the other guy suggested, get the latest Enhanced edition for the PC which is the real version for a modern audience.

It is compatible with modern computers and has improved graphics and features without ruining the original vision.

I agree that the enhanced PC version is the the best. It's already very obvious that this remake strongly disrespects the source material. There's a reason SH2 is considered a masterpiece of horror games. The remake won't even come close.

I remember people complaining when the HD remasters came out, couldn't possibly get worse.. but it totally got worse lol

I'm actually exited for the Remake, still the Original game is a timeless masterpiece, there are no reasons to skip it no matter what.

Maybe you can't find any.

But personally I have a moral and ethical reluctance to giving my money to companies that involve themselves with disgustingly racist, sexist DEI companies who openly hate gamer's and actively push anti gaming agendas to ruin video games.

They're just a modern extension of all that video game hating nonsense we had to deal with in the 80-90's.. same garbage type of people spouting those "video games make kids violent" narratives which despite having been debunked over and over and over again.. they are STILL pushing to this day.

The language has changed.. the tactics have changed, the agenda has not.

But yes SH2 is a timeless masterpiece, that we can agree on at least.

You can get the PS2 version for free with some Google-fu and emulation magic. It's abandonware at this point, so it's worth experiencing. If you're worried about the legality of that approach, Xbox still sells the HD version of the SH2 & 3 bundle if you insist on throwing money at a company just to play this 22 year old game in its worst version.

Personally, I bought the HD version so I could download the PS2 version of SH2 and 3 and emulate them without feeling bad :)

The only issue is hunting down a copy of the game for pc. That doesn't cost a fortune. Also most modern PC don't come with a CD rom drive so you need to buy a CD rom drive to install it.

Definitely don't buy it from some rando on the internet who is just overcharging out the ass for their copy that they bought back in the day. Aside from the official HD version on the xbox store, nobody who has legal access to the license is actually selling the original version anymore. It really is abandonware at this point.

If they're not going to sell it digitally then yes, just go find it elsewhere

Silent Hill 4 is on gog.com, shame they haven't put the rest on as I think sh1 had pc port too?

The enhanced edition made by fans would still be far better then any official remaster they'd do.. the mgs1 rerelease was very barebones

I wonder if there is a very commonly used way most use to get Enhanced Edition running....................."something abandonware" was it? (wink wink)

Definitely dont search that online

Yeah download at your own risk, Malware alerts and all that.

Yeah Silent Hill 4 The Room, which I thought was pretty good is on GoG. They have Silent Hill Homecoming here on Steam but I hear it has problems. Silent Hill Downpour can't be purchase anywhere that I see. I think it was consoles only release. Konami could make some money putting these games up on Steam if they ever got off their panchinko asses and do something about it.
