Pues fíjate tu calita, que a mi me pasa lo contrario.Me bajaron bastantes las ganas cuando empezaron a salir las primeras reviews negativas, pero si te pasas por foros de v ideojuegos yankis, y lees mensajes de gente que está jugando y que llevan bastantes horas (muchos de ellos incluso se lo han terminado), la gran mayoria están encantados y les parece un gran silent hill.Casi todos son fans de la saga, pero también hay gente que está jugando a su primer silent hill, y aunque hablan de fallos, lógicamente, sobre todo a nivel técnico, casi todos están deacuerdo en que la historia NO es tan jodidamente mala como se ha dicho y que la atmósfera y el miedo están ahí.....como en todo, son opiniones.Saludos.
Estoy 100%% de acuerdo contigo.. la gente que son autenticos fan de la saga.. no lo ponen tan mal.. alreves algunos se atreven a decir que es de los mejores desde el SH2, aqui os dejo un ejemplo de un fanatico de la saga realizando una review, la he leido y sinceramente, me parece muy acorde:
Review
Silent hill Homecoming is the best Silent hill Game since SH2
The Good : Fantastic story , Superb Music and sounds , improved control , a true silent hillY atmosphere and mood .
The Bad : occasional minor Glitches , Frame rate issue in some levels , lip-sync issue in some of the cinematics .
Well I always wanted to start playing this game with Xbox 360 but things have changed and I played this game for the first time on PS3 (But will play it on 360 as well ) . the first thing that Took me away was music . the game has an spectacular start THAT resembles the Start of SH1 and SH3 . Everything starts with a Nightmare , then Alex Wakes Up and see everything was a bad Dream (BUT WAS IT REALLY A DREAM ???!!! )
Homecoming in short is sum of all past silent hill experiences yet with a brand new Story and a redefined Controls .
self-talking , foggy town , Dark past, Nurses , Pyramid head , Dogs Howling , Wheelchairs …… they are all here in this game .
the aforementioned start is only one part of it . the game (specially at the beginning) has a mood very similar To SH2 . everything is sad and decayed , Alex comes into Shepherd’s Glen Just to Find it a completely Different place without knowing what is going on .
the game’s undisputed shinning star is absolutely its Music and sound effects (specially in other world ). I was one of those people who had been frustrated a lot in past silent hill Games due to the clunky Controls , but now I am proud to say that controls in Homecoming are Simply Awesome . the 3D camera is perfect since it gives you an ability to examine the environment Very easily ; this feature Coupled with the fact the Alex Turns his face towards the objects of interest would guarantee that You won’t get stuck in the game just for an overlooked Item .
remember that Homecoming is full of Contents that will be ignored by many gamers . this 3D camera help the gamer to See walls and objects easier .take your time and examine all the walls , photos , articles, signs…… , you’ll see such details in the game’s storyline that You would not normally see if you try to Rush in the game (something that IGN Guys missed) . many of these details are not related to game’s progression But just like past silent hills contain lots of information about the Game (Do you remember SH2 ? can you recall the meaning of walls in Doorman Boss fight ? )
this is the most intense Boss Fight in Silent hill Homecoming ,you’ll need to act like a real soldier in this battle
in so many scenes the Game forces you to press an specific Key rapidly in order to proceed . this mechanism unlike what the other reviewers believe is really intense and thrilling .
have I mentioned the Journal ? the new Journal Consists of all the clues , Images , Memos and Alex’s opinion about the recent Events. it is an invaluable feature that is necessary for both Progression and story Digestion . just like past silent hill games you will constantly refer to your map for so many reasons but unlike past games you will see less locked doors and also you can easily break some of them (Wooden Doors) By swinging your axe.
Over all in comparison with past games Homecoming is easier in terms of puzzle and riddle and a little harder in terms of Combat (though it is significantly smoother ) .
the game has Decent amount of real time cut-scenes , but I could easily say one forth of the story Could only be understood via Memos and Images scattered around and also the Dialogue-tree scenes .
the cut-scenes varies from very realistic to Not So Realistic at times . but it is safe to say that most of the cut-scenes are beautifully rendered and you can finally experience this story with power of current generation consoles .
Homecoming offers gamers with the best Boss fights in series so far . the boss fights are really challenging and thrilling .
the PS3 version has a glitch that prevent gamers from inverting the Controller’s settings and I assume we will Find a patch sooner or later on PSN .
in some occasions the frame rate falls down significantly though none of those scenes are critical and You won’t lose the game because of them , however you’ll lose the game frequently towards end of the game unless you master Dodging .
Dodging , blocking and Ammo saving in this game are keys to survive .
This time around nowhere is safe , like Resident Evil 4 the doors are nothing more than a Door and almost all the enemies in Homecoming can break the doors and hunt you down .
Havok physics engine Does a nice Job but there are sometimes in the game that You feel the environments are not that interactive and unlike games like Star wars : the force unleashed Havok does not play a major Role in the game play . Bumping into objects , firing your Gun , your Flash light… they all attract the enemies in the vicinity but in Homecoming You’ll find yourself killing the enemies instead of avoiding them most of the times . You’d better face your enemies and kill them rather than playing hide and seek ; in other word this game is meant to be more action oriented (though you should engage in battles with your Melee weapons mostly becasue the ammo is scarce ) .
Fortunately The game’s loading times are short and also they do not happen too frequently , also many of them are hidden in cut-scenes .
Visually Silent hill homecoming looks really Good , forget about the photos and So called HD videos . the game looks Good to me and everything is dark and dreadful , in fact Homecoming is the darkest SH ever . most of textures (specially in other world ) are of high quality and look great . However character models are Not The best out there . Alex himself and Bosses look Surprisingly Detailed however the other Characters could have been a little better .
Cult members are undoubtedly one of the most Dangerous enemies of the entire game , Be aware , they are smart and agile
The game is the longest Silent hill Journey so far and will take you somewhere around 10 to 14 hours . unlike what IGN said , story in Homecoming is absolutely amazing and In my opinion is the best story after SH2 So I assume that you already know there is something wrong with Alex and he is not a perfect man .
The pyramid Head’s presence got its own meaning , it is totally related to plot but his role is not as important as it was in SH2 , thus most of the story is focused around Alex , the Cult , Josh and Adam .
over all Silent hill Homecoming is what All the fans expected . I loved this game and I believe 2008 was the best Gaming year for me since I experienced Two of the best Titles ever (GTAIV and SH : Homecoming ) .
important Notes :
1-I strictly recommend you to play this game with Vibration , in some scenes this is a must .
2- play this game with loud volume . this makes you way more frightened (guaranteed)
3- the game is very dark in some parts , so I recommend you to add up the Brightness or simply play this game in a dark room (I did the latter and it worked ) .
4- With Vibration ON , sound Volume MAX and a Dark room you will also need a diaper

Graphics : 9/10 [ while not as great as titles like MGS4 , it really looks Good ]
Game play : 8.5/10 [the new redefined combat system , Dialogue- tree , interactive cinematics , Faster pace ……all get the Job Done ]
Music and sound : 10/10 [Akira Yamaoka Presented us with yet another Masterpiece ]
Replay value : 8.5/10 [has the most replay value in series since SH3 . lots of costume , tons of collectable ,special weapons , Alternate Endings and dialogues ]
Over all : 9/10 [the best silent hill game since SH2 ]
