[Multiplatform] Silent Hill: Homecoming. Now with HD fog effects

Bought this for $20 Sunday. Just started playing today only a few hours into the story. Double Helix, the developer, has captured the atmosphere of the other 5 games quite well. The trademark fog is back and thicker than ever. Enemies all have that leathery texture to their skin and look like something straight out of a nightmare which is obviously the point.

So far I like exploration aspects of the game and trying to piece together the story by paying attention to and reading all of the letters and collecting all of the drawings/pictures scattered around the town.

Combat is better than it has been in any of the other games in the series. It takes a bit of time to get used to it, but you can dodge enemies attacks and counter attack with practice. You can move while aiming as well which gives you a tactical advantage in combat. Weapons are limited but they each serve a purpose in exploration and specific enemies have weaknesses to certain weapons.

I'm looking forward to playing some more because it is the closest thing to old school survival horror that has come out in along time.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
