Game : Silent Hill 3

Scary, scary. The whole ten hours I spent playing SH3, I just wanted it to end. The game is stressful, and when I can't find the fucking rope which I need to climb down the elevator shaft, I want to toss myself down the shaft, sans-rope, and walk away from it forever. In other words, it does a great job of making you feel the protagonist's sanity slip away.

Graphically, the game is really slick. The sets are gorgeous. Konami did a great job of reusing the playing areas to differeing effects, just by switching the textures around. The only slightly creepy mental hospital you just explored suddenly becomes a portal to hell where everything is either dripping blood, on fire, or both. The characters look great, and the monsters are well devised. The story, however, is smoking some wacky-tobaccy, and becomes a convoluted mess by the end. But this game was like homework, and I'm just glad its over. I'll miss you, Heather!
