Is it a perfect game? Not entirely; enemies are just a little too humanoid, there are bugs, a couple of other things. Does it deliver on the classic Silent Hill experience? Yes. Does it have great atmosphere and an original story that isn't just cribbing from Silent Hill 2? Yes and yes! So, despite everything else, it is a worthy successor to the franchise.
It's worthy!
