My sincerest apologies to all the Silent Hill 2 fans out there, but the closest I've ever gotten to playing it was today via Roblox.
Creator Shapic2 has ported every inch of the [[link]] classic horror game's levels and you can explore them with other block people for as long as you'd like. There are empty streets, graveyards, forests, and fog. Lots and lots of fog.
Shapic2 says the port is mostly a proof-of-concept for getting Konami's official assets into Roblox's engine and not meant to be an actual recreation of Silent Hill 2 in its entirety. As a spooky tour through a game I've only really heard about and seen in trailers, it's still pretty impressive.
Especially the fog, which is as blinding as it should be. Even when I knew nothing was going to crawl out of the darkness, the dreary Silent Hill 2 soundtrack was enough to keep me on edge as I slowly approached the graveyard. When I got there, someone dressed up as Pyramid Head ran by me. I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be hanging out in the apartments later on, but maybe he got lost.
Thankfully, you have the option to teleport to any location whenever you want. You can visit the apartments, the prison, the hotel, and even the control room where happens. All of it is just as grimey and dark as the original except for the other players wearing angel wings and cowboy hats who occasionally show up.
Shapic2 is probably right that this isn't the way you should experience Silent Hill 2, but I'm still impressed at how well they've recreated the atmosphere in Roblox of all things. If you want the real thing, Bloober Team seems to have that covered in its from last year. I, however, won't be playing that so that I can tell everyone that the only time I've ever stepped foot in Silent Hill was in Roblox.
