Superb! Trial and error survival horror is the bomb! VERY underated game - this IS possibly more entertaining than Res4.

User Rating: 9.9 | Forbidden Siren PS2

A title that is very under-appreciated, it seems that
ingenuity,
scaredom,
suspense,
intriguing story,
top playability,
immaculate graphics and more is ironically not enough to persuade the "professionals" to award this well-deserving game a higher rating than a "didn't look at it twice" average joe 6.7.....

Siren dislplays a very good balance of playability limits that make survival horror games all that more challenging. This is an important aspect, and molds this game into even more so a hard game to play alone at night. You may think that is bad? No, no, you WILL still play it, except you will be genuinely on edge :D , and that is what is most important in Survival horror - being scared.

To keep this short, I will finish to say this game has balls, it just hasn't got the reviews / chance to compare to its big brother, Resident evil series.( which I am a fan of too ) .

Highly recommended
