Hey, friends. Does anyone have a customer services/complaint phone number for GAME UK? I submitted a support ticket on Thu and they haven't even bothered to reply.

For those with phobias, there are no rats, snakes, or spiders (although one enemy can scuttle/jump a bit like spiders - I got through it, but it was not fun). There are cockroach-like creatures, but they're stylised, not hyper-realistic. Hope that helps! <3

Reached that point in life where I've had to make the icons/text on my desktop the size of small billboards to see them.

My final review for PLAY magazine turned out to be the Silent Hill 2 remake. The 2001 game was already incredibly special to me, and you can read some of my thoughts on Bloober's remake in PLAY's farewell issue, on UK shop shelves October 15th.

This is a screenshot from Bloober team's Silent Hill 2 remake on PS5. James Sunderland looks at a bloody shadow sat in front of a television set tuned to nothing but static. Light streams from the television set, casting long shadows around the room.

It's my first ever 5/5/essential for Eurogamer, btw, in six-plus years. And I think it's only my second top marks review. Ever. And that's in *fifteen* years!

this is the silent hill 2 remake review you want to read. v was more or less providing the community at large with dev notes and more for decades. i can't really think of anyone else that has this level of familiarity with the series or understanding of it.
