The Silent Hill 2 remake feels like the PS2 classic in a Resident Evil 2 remake wrapper, and you know what? That's not bad




I get the impression Bloober Team knows what you think of it. Ever since the studio was announced as the driving force behind Konami's remake of the impossibly beloved Silent Hill 2, it feels like the game's fanbase has been sucking air through its teeth, keeping one wincing eye on development to see how badly Bloober messed up...

Bloober Team, it's fair to say, is not everyone's cup of tea. Some people like what they do quite a lot, and others, well, not so much. So when Konami announced the Silent Hill 2 remake in 2022, and that Bloober was making it, the reaction was not universally enthusiastic. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno acknowledged the apprehension but said the studio has come a long way over the years and expressed hope that fans will "give us a chance" to prove what it can do...
