the slowest game ever

I don’t mean to imply, by my title, that there are framerate problems with Silent Hill 2. The graphics remain quite impressive, although I really am starting to tire of the ever-thickening fog. What I mean is that the plot develops incredibly slowly. I do huge amounts of Wandering Around. Roughly, the game works like this:

more dark, less foggy

Well, I’ve gotten inside a building, and I’ve been there for some time now. I’ve even run into some humans, although they all seem pretty wacky. Inside, I’ve gotten a better appreciation for the rest of SH2’s graphics. By that, I mean, “the stuff other than the fog.”

On Sunday, I went out and picked up Resident Evil and played it for a few hours, doing my best to prove to myself that it was good.
