In Origins, you can reach this world by using mirrors to transport yourself from one world to the other, as certain parts of the town or levels can only be reached in the alternate Silent Hill. The town also has a dark alternate side that twists and distorts reality, turning it into a rust-encrusted nightmare signaled by an ominous-sounding air raid siren piercing the quiet. In the "normal" world, Silent Hill resembles an average town, aside from the overabundance of fog, and it's completely abandoned aside from a few rundown scary buildings.
To those of you unfamiliar with the Silent Hill series, and you know who you are, the games are basically set in a town that suffers from a bad case of schizophrenia. You guide him through the nightmarish worlds of Silent Hill, solving cryptic riddles and slaying various demonic monsters along the way. You play as Travis Grady, assumptively named from the dictionary of generic American names Climax has stashed in its offices. Origins continues this tradition of mind-melting horror with gripping gameplay and an intelligent, genuinely terrifying story. It is renowned for Japanese-style horror concepts which seem so marvelously twisted to the Western gamer that the series has flourished since its first release in 1999. The further into the game players get, more weapons become available plus more and more items from the surroundings can be used - however overuse of items causes them to break and wear down, which could leave players unarmed at crucial moments.The Silent Hill series has always presented itself as one of the paragons of survival horror gaming. There are now, 'Interactive', element where players have to hit buttons as prompted to escape enemies that have triggered the cinematic sequences. Players also utilise an enhanced camera designed with the PSP in mind, as well as an updated control method for more detailed exploration of the environment. Players can now lock onto enemies to attack and will also find the control scheme changing intuitively for each situation. The game play is still classic Silent Hill - but with tweaks and additions created specifically for the PSP.
This dedicated PSP title copes beautifully with creating the creepy feel of Silent Hill and will keep players engrossed from start to finish with the well crafted storyline, the range of enemies and puzzles to solve as well as the haunting soundtrack composed by the legendary composer Akira Yamaoka, responsible for the musical score on all of the other titles. If you've ever wondered just how the town of Silent Hill became the eerie mess that has been seen over four previous Silent Hill games, then this new PSP title will reveal all, set as a prequel to the events that have been before.
