So I just completed Silent Hill: Shattered Memories for the Wii, and I've got say, this has to be the best survival horror game I've ever played. It does an excellent job of putting you in the shoes of the main character, and also requires you to pay attention to any minor details and of your surroundings, like a true 3-D survival horror game.

The crazy thing about this game, is that it profiles you as you play. During certain intervals in the game, you'll take place in several counceling sessions from a psychologist, who tests your behavior and personality through several assignments and actions.

At the end of the game, during the credits, you'll be rewarded with a full personal analysis of yourself depending on how you responded to the assignments.

Here's the scary part: The analysis I got was actually very true about me.

Assuming you answered truthfully, this game can teach you something about yourself too.

How about that for scary?

I've always been interested in this series, but scary videogames freak me out a lot. I have yet to see a movie that has truly scared me/made me paranoid after seeing it, but even games like Half Life 2 scare the crap out of me--when you're being chased by guards is terrible.

I even recall being scared when I was getting chased by various things at sea when I played Wind Waker years ago.

The big problem with this game is that there's not much reason to play it over again, except if there were a few optional puzzles you missed the first time, or if you want to get a different ending result.

No unlockable weapons with infinite ammo here!

Unless you're a Silent Hill/survival horror fan, maybe you should consider renting it first, as the game is only 5-6 hours in length.
