Silent Hill Homecoming reviews and comments
Gameplay is moderately exciting and intense, soundtrack as before pleases. The main drawbacks are sometimes not fair damage, especially annoying that at this moment you can't do anything, riddles, and general lack of refinement of game.

My first playthrough wasn't a disappointment, even with all the glitches and crappy controls. I thought it was a relatively spooky experience with some deeply disturbing moments. I even think it has some of the best monster design of the series (ignoring the ripoffs and movie references, obviously). It wasn't until I played Silent Hill 4: The Room (my first Team Silent game) that I realized how mediocre Homecoming was in comparison. Silent Hill 1 thru 3 further exhibited what Homecoming got wrong, which is a pretty lengthy list of things. Mainly, it's not scary, whereas, even today, I find myself getting scared playing the original four games.
