silent hill: shattered memories
Rating summary: This is a survival horror game in which players assume the role of Harry Mason as he searches for his missing daughter after a car crash. Players explore a mysterious town, investigate clues and objects, solve various puzzles, and interact with the world using their in-game cell phone. Some voicemail/text messages received on the phone contain references to violence, including an onlooker's vivid description of a stabbing. Players can also take pictures with their cell phone, one of which reveals the corpse of a teenager who hanged himself. Large streaks of blood are sometimes depicted on floors and walls; blood is also visible around animal and human corpses. Throughout the game, players will encounter suggestive posters/calendars/objects featuring scantily clad women. The most pertinent examples include: a poster advertising a pornographic film called Young Flesh 2 (with blacked-out nudity); portraits of women who work in a brothel; mannequins arranged in sexually suggestive positions; and rude bathroom graffiti (e.g., "Cheerleader Wh*re"). Players can also visit a psychiatrist who sometimes discusses sexual issues (e.g., "All this talking and we still haven't touched on this sex thing" and "You want to die having sex."). As players explore an abandoned high school, they may encounter a poster for drug awareness that contain images of marijuana leaves, crack, and cocaine. Profanity (e.g., "sh*t" and "a*shole") can sometimes be heard in the dialogue.
finally the ESRB has given us a new nugget of joy
" Apparently they didn't notice the deformed freaks walking around, on account of the lewd posters and such. "Apparently so. Rather odd, though, considering how they pretty much own that place and all.
Where is that text from? That is amazing if the ESRB wrote it. Do they do summaries like this for all games?
" When will the ESRB realise that some little kid seeing what a breast looks like is not harmful in any way. "Haha this.
" Where is that text from? That is amazing if the ESRB wrote it. Do they do summaries like this for all games? "you should read the one for wet it is amazing
" Yep, sex is much more scarring than violence. Because people kill others in real life, right? "They don't say what is more scarring than the other. They only give details as to what kind of content there is in the game...Up to the parents to choose (unless you're old enough to buy the game).
You guys are wrong, this is just the new direction that Silent Hill is going. Monsters are no more in the series.
