Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams

"Survival horror and Silent Hill fans will want to run out and get this one, but so should fans of adventure games and mind boggling plots. It’s not perfect, but comes damn close."

"A good rental for fans of the original and of horror games in general, but nowhere near as impressive as Silent Hill."

...the phrase "Director's Cut"...basically says, "yeah this is Silent Hill 2, but this one is only for Xbox, so there is going to be some stuff in this game that you won't see on any other system."

"...SH2:RD is definitely worth a look if you want to appreciate the audio and video capabilities of the Xbox and impress your techno-snob friends. There's no additional fun hidden in the Xbox SH2, but the overall gloom of the franchise has never been so vivid."

" The first game I played that could be tied to the genre was Splatterhouse for the Turbo Grafx 16. Other games since then have come and gone, with only a few worth mentioning. Everyone is familiar with the Resident Evil series; which now is going to become a major motion picture. Probably my favorite in the genre was Parasite Eve made by Square. The original Silent Hill was mildly successful on the Playstation, and the sequel was also a hit for the PS2."
