This is, without a doubt, the best game I have ever played. A breathtaking and disturbing horror spectacle, Silent Hill 2 is a masterclass in storytelling, atmosphere, and design. I simply cannot overstate how incredible the sound design, world-building, and character and monster design are. Every element works together to create an unforgettable experience.

The story is utterly captivating, and I genuinely grew to care for all the characters with my whole heart. I’ve never played a game like this before, one that kept me on edge, scared and nervous almost the entire time. For the first time in any game, I found myself eagerly reading all the notes and books I stumbled upon, desperate to figure out what I had gotten myself into and to uncover every possible detail about the world and story.

Visually, the game is simply stunning. Whether it's the eerie, fog-filled streets or the oppressive interiors, the level of graphical achievement is nothing short of phenomenal. I regret not playing the original, but after this experience, I feel like I’ve made up for lost time. Now, I’m even more motivated to explore every corner of this world and fully 100% the game.

I’m dying to uncover all the endings, and even with my ADHD, I refuse to spoil them by watching videos. I want to experience everything firsthand.

In short, this is a truly magnificent game. It easily earns an 11/10 from me.
