I really want to play this game. When it comes out on GOG I'll buy it straight away. I won't play the remake until I've played the original. Please please please bring back the OG Silent Hill 2
It was the first game in the Silent Hill series I ever played, grabbing a cheap copy of the PS2 version from my local pawn shop when I was in high school. It remains as one of my favorite survival horror games of all time and one of my favorite comfort games to return to for an afternoon when I don't feel like doing too much. The music, characters, atmosphere, even the sometimes cheesy voice acting, all act as part of the experience. It's the first survival horror game I was able to convince my best friend to play, and we still love revisiting this gem on occasion when we play games together.
One of the best survival horror games out there and now eminently playable on PC thanks to the tireless work of fans, it's incredible and saddening that there is no legal way to access the original PC version digitally, which makes this a perfect get for GOG's catalog and a great companion for Silent Hill 4: The Room.
Truthfully, while the remake is amazing, it's not the original game. To this day, discovering how this game tastefully handled dark subject matters in 2001 shaped the way I think about art and helped me approached novels and movies that were formative to me, up to this day. It's not a joke when I say that Silent Hill 2 helped me acquaint myself and enter the right frame of mind to watch David Lynch's work (rest in peace).
Silent Hill 2 is my favorite Horror game of all time. It would be great to have the original classic available on as many systems as possible and I hope this will be the big start.
Silent Hill has been an immensely important title to me from all the way back when i would look at my the cover art of the ps2 copy my mom had long before i would ever get to play it myself. With the resurgence of the franchise it’s a shame that the original games are abandoned to old hardware with skyrocketing prices. The memories of playing through and hearing the beautifully macabre music and the world class storytelling on full display. I will never forget my first time playing SH2 and i hope to make many more new memories with it on gog. :)
Just put the game like in the SecuROM 3 CD US release and let the Enhanced Edition patch do the rest. Or better yet, INCLUDE IT!
Played this 6 times on PS2 just to get several endings and later 4 times on PC with the Enhanced Edition. Installing through CD is a damn mess. But hopefully, when it's on GOG, it's just gonna be a single-click and done.
The best survival horro for mi, the game ends destroying to your feelings. James, Pyramid, Maria, Eddie, Laura and Angela are memorables! Bring them back to gog and all platforms
I got a lot of memories including Silent Hill HD Collection. Silent Hill 2 is still among the scariest games I ever played. To me the perfect Silent Hill game. You really couldn't ask for more. Rememberable characters while exploring more of the town. Some of the most iconic monsters especially Pyramid Head. I felt it's the second best SH with soundtrack alone behind SH3. They put a surprising level of depth. You got plenty of reasons to replay the game. It's sad only Silent Hill HD Collection available. Sure there's not a great PC port. Thankfully there's a famous mod that greatly improved that port. I strongly felt GOG could sell the hell out of this game.
I am completely unable to run last year’s remake of this game on my laptop, but I would still love to see what it is about this game that has made it a timeless classic for so many fans. I also want to see why the original release is so beloved in order to compare with Bloober Team’s interpretation and know why people love this version of the game.
Mon premier jeux vidéo d'horreur psychologique, Silent Hill 2 aborde des thèmes adultes très profonds, le deuil, la folie, le remord, et nous entraîne dans un monde fantasmagorique où le personnage se retrouve confronté à des épreuves faisant écho à ses propres démons.
Découvert sur PS2, la qualité graphique du titre déjà à l'époque participe à l'ambiance de malaise qui se dégage tout au long de l’œuvre.
Un classique immortel.
Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur MachtXenosaga: Episode I - Der Wille zur Macht, the first chapter of a trilogy, is a Japanese-style sci-fi role-playing game, sharing many common themes and gameplay elements with Xenogears.
The battle system is not unlike the one used in Xenogears (combo attacks, AP and EP gauges, etc.), but random encounters are eliminated. Instead, the enemies are now visible and battles can be avoided. During combat the few upcoming ally and enemy turns are shown onscreen, allowing the player to make strategic decisions based on who will act next. A rolling slot moves with each turn as well, conferring a bonus such as added damage or bonus XP for any action on that turn. If the enemy would be in position to take an advantage then the player can expend a character's "boost" gauge to cut in and act next, although enemies can boost as well, and enemy boosts always over-ride player boosts.
Each character has a unique tree of Ether spells they can learn by spending Ether points earned in battle, with lower spells requiring spells above them to be purchased first. After a spell is purchased, so long is it does not require a unique talent of that character, the spell can also be purchased and learned by any other character that can afford double its normal cost. The Anti-Gnosis Weapon Systems can be equipped with different weapons and accessories and can be used in combat provided that a character has enough AP on that turn to board their AGWS.Fantasy Science fiction
Xenosaga Episode III: Also sprach ZarathustraThe story of Xenosaga III starts a year after "Xenosaga II" ended. Shion has resigned from Vector Industries after learning that the company is deeply connected to the appearance of the Gnosis. She instead joins Scientia, an underground organization working to unveil Vector's secrets in order to bring them down. Uncover the truth and save mankind in the finale of the Xenosaga series which boasts over 3 hours of movies, an updated battle system, and an improved customization feature with more in-depth character specialization and diversification and higher rewards for strategic party management. This RPG also includes an easily accessible database feature, the "Xeno Bible" and a mini-game with over 50 levels that challenges both you and your friends.Fantasy Science fiction

As in the previous entries, the player move back and forth between nightmare and real versions of the town, gathering items used to solve puzzles and open up new areas. Monsters of various types provide obstacles and, in series tradition, are mostly disturbingly twisted versions of humanity. The main character can fight with his bare fists or use melee weapons.

There is no HUD, but the edge of the screen turns red when the protagonist is near death.Horror Survival
