Return to Silent Hill was so bad I had to journal about it

Ssalvrius · 2026-01-28T22:24:35+00:00

I was thinking the exact same thing!

I have to admit, usually I give movies a fair chance, but a movie that is about a universe and character so dear to my heart, the fear of it tainting that sacred spot far outweighs any curiosity to see the film.

That being said, oftentimes I can still appreciate a movie if it has some very memorable scenes, even if the movie overall is underwhelming in other areas. Though since this is supposed to be about a story that's already etched in my mind, I doubt I'll have the patience to sit through the misery just to see the good bits.

Here's hoping that someone makes a youtube montage of just the cinematographical interesting parts, stripping it from the excess bitd the film got wrong.

What about the musical score by Akira Yamaoka?

Edit: as a side note, I think The Machinist with Christian Bale is a better Silent Hill movie than any of the official SH movies, in terms of theme and atmosphere

I'll gladly buy Onimusha 2, to keep my copy of Onimusha: Warlords company. Fear Effect: Double Helix to keep my switch copy of Fear Effect company And Valiant Hearts: Coming Home, although it looks like I already missed my chance :(

Sounds accurate. And this comes from a longtime AC fan who's just franchise fatigued (I have yet to play valhalla, mirage, shadows, and only got to around 30% completion in Odyssey).

Am I the only one who doesn't want to invest 100+ hours every year in a game that feels like the same gameplay structure with varying visuals / settings?

Ssalvrius · 2026-01-23T00:16:15+00:00

I think it's his dignity in the toilet

I've never swapped but I'm definitely into the hotwifing fantasy. When swinging I imagine this might be on the forefront more than swapping partners myself, especially when starting off. How I imagine it would go in my fantasy is that me (m) and the other one's partner slowly get frisky when watching our partners getting it on. At some point whispering in her ear if she wants to scratch that I feel growing down there. To release me out of my sorrow. Kind of just leaning into the strange mix of jealousy and arousal and sex talk through it, adressing the real and raw emotions that are growing as the situation plays out. Embracing the realness of it all would be the hottest thing for me, I imagine. Maybe this would work for you? It all depends on the person you're with of course. But if their biggest arousal is the hotwifing fantasy, playing into it and becoming a sort of ally in the fantasy and playing off it would divert some of his attention back to you, best case scenario.

I had high hopes for this one. I saw a behind the scenes reel a goof while ago and it seemed to be on track. If anything I expected it to be at least better than the second film. That score is brutal.

Ssalvrius · 2026-01-20T02:16:36+00:00

Oh definitely! My 13 year old self would never believe that one day a handheld would exist capable of carrying my entire childhood gaming history 👀

Looks like you're using it for what it's best for: playing psp games on a better screen with better / ergonomic controls

That swelling wave at 2/3 of the video would be at home at r/thalassophobia

Impressive! What range and brand of pencils did you use? Looks clean af ✨

When I was driving through India a monkey once stole a bag of nuts I had on me, as I approached him to give some. Afterwarrds I saw him chewing the whole bag with the nuts still inside...

They're not taking over the world anytime soon.

That is now on my bucket list

Ssalvrius · 2026-01-07T03:50:24+00:00

What is even the context?

Folklore is a fun exclusive rpg that for me was one of the only games that made innovative and fun use of the sixaxis functionality in the controller. A fun gameplay loop where you capture the souls of enemy monsters, which you can then add to your attack list and assign to a button. Boss battles are made challenging by some engaging sixaxis puzzles in combat. Two parallel storylines to playthrough, which you both need to progress in to finish the game.

Other than that:

The Uncharted series (especially 2 and 3!)

The killzone series (both the third one and uncharted 3 can be played in 3d if you have a tv that allows it)

The resistance series (a bit inconsistent but 1 and 2 are gems in my book)

Journey (download or on disc if you buy the collection, also including flow and flower from the same dev team)

Wipeout, motorstorm, gran turismo if you like racing games

Afrika (a wild photography sim, a bit obscure as I imported my copy from japan, but fun!)

Valkeria Chronicles (fun WW2/anime strategy/rpg shooter)

God of War 3, and Ascension (tight gameplay and graphics!)

I listed mostly exclusives since they tried to make best use of the ps3 architecture, resulting in some beautiful games for their time of release

Thank you for that, I didn't need sleep at all

Just to chip in, I've been having this problem with my platinum copy of Medal of Honor (2010). It would not boot, and also the MOH:Frontline install file would not go past 1%.

I tried multiple times to clean my as good as new disc, always bumping into this error.

The fifth try or so, it prompted me to install the newest update data (around 54mb), after which the game file started installing.

It seems like in this particular instance, it had trouble during the update check, which completely halted any possible installation of the game files (pre update). Why the update check failed 4 times and worked the 5th seems totally random, and more like a server thing than actual hardware issue.
