User Rating: 8 | Silent Hill 4: The Room PC
Another good game in SH serial.Even though the story is different this time unlike the previous installments, which were set primarily in the town of Silent Hill, this game is set in the fictional town of South Ashfield, and is focused on the character of Henry Townshend attempting to escape from his locked-down apartment. He explores a series of supernatural worlds and finds himself in conflict with an undead serial killer.

Gameplay.The gameplay changed from the past Sillent hill games,even though the game received a mixed critical reaction due to deviations from the original Silent Hill style,i think that the gameplay actually improved and that the change was needed in the gameplay.Gameplay is centered on the Henry's apartment, which is shown through a first-person perspective and contains the only save point. The other levels of the game are reached through holes formed in the apartmentFor the first half of the game the room will also heal the player. In the second half of the game, the room becomes possessed by hauntings that drain Henry's "health".U chave limited inventory which can be managed by leaving unneeded items in a chest in Henry's room.

Graphics:Are not improved since the previous game,in some points it looks even worse than SH3,the textures are blurrie,which is kinda disapointing.But the realistic shadows and good effects are still there.the textures are blurrie

Sound:
I think that name Akira Yamaoka tells everything,Awesome!(music is great aswell as sound effects)
