60 of 77 · most liked firstGame 20 of 2026: Silent Hill Homecoming Felt like an action horror with SH slapped on. Dodging felt extremely clunky. Game disregarded existing SH lore. Pyramid Head is exclusively tied to James, yet he's here because Konami wanted some fanservice. Music was great tho. Onto Downpour.

unlabelledView post →I co-wrote the manual for Silent Hill: Homecoming, I'm pretty sure it was that one. I had a video game job before my comic book job and it was always nice to get to touch stuff that touched my heart as a kid. I would never call it an honor because it's work, though. anyway, ban remakes

unlabelledView post →I am once again back on my BS of trying to get the PC version of Silent Hill Homecoming to function and capture in OBS. No luck but when I installed the game on my Steamdeck it mysteriously had subtitles?! I've never seen it have subtitles on my desktop PC.

unlabelledView post →I -pre ordered- Silent Hill: Homecoming after getting into the original 4 games and loving them. That game single-handedly made me swear off pre-ordering anything for the rest of my life.

unlabelledView post →Silent Hill Homecoming is hilarious for the simple fact that you can get the UFO ending by accident on your first playthrough which would be hilariously out of context if this was your first ever Silent Hill game.
unlabelledView post →Silent Hill Homecoming on PC is a glitchy buggy mess, but that actually makes it a bit scarier by making things less predictable. I don't know whether the game is deliberately screwing with me or I'm just encountering a bug. Sometimes the panic music started with no enemies nearby.

unlabelledView post →Been a while since I played it but probably Silent Hill: Homecoming. Goddamn that game is stupid lmao. And not TOO long so it's not total torture to play
unlabelledView post →So we were VERY honored to be asked by @terrorbytesdoc.bsky.social to talk about Silent Hill Homecoming and horror video games. I mean, we are here with GIANTS of gaming - so it was incredible. You can order Parts 1 and 2! www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJr2...
unlabelledView post →After completing Silent Hill Homecoming, I can say that it honestly isn't that bad of a game in my opinion. It's definitely not one of my favorite games in the series, and it has flaws, but I thought it was alright. A decent 6/10 type game.

unlabelledView post →Silent Hill: Homecoming is the worst Silent Hill game made worse by the most unplayable and overpriced port on PC known to man. Konami needs to pull it off the steam store and fix it or bury it out back.
unlabelledView post →The survival horror of Silent Hill: Homecoming is surviving the horrors of this busted PC port. It’s unstable, you have to guess what buttons to press (it gives a prompt for a button but doesn’t tell you which one) and the controller option in the game is entirely fictive.

unlabelledView post →I’ll throw some of mine into the mix: -Assassin’s Creed 3 was one of the best AC games ever -Silent Hill Homecoming and Downpour deserve just as much recognition as the numbered games -Castlevania 64 didn’t deserve any hate -game awards shows are largely pointless
unlabelledView post →Oh no. Tonight, at 7 pm CDT, I will be playing my annual Silent Hill game with Silent Hill: Homecoming on both Twitch & YouTube for Day 6 of Hauntober. I don't have a good history with this game, but at least it's for charity. All proceeds go to Imagination Library. #Charity #Halloween

unlabelledView post →Based on everything I'd heard, I went into Silent Hill Homecoming expecting the be whelmed AT BEST. But having played up through the first boss fight, uhhh this game fucks so far??? The story has me in an iron grip and to my great surprise, the combat feels GOOD??? Hello???
unlabelledView post →Streaming career highlight: my absolute PANIC as Patrick J Doody (one of the writers of Silent Hill: Homecoming) spent time in my chat answering questions from the community WHILE I played through the game! ❤️ I'm so honored, thank you for joining us!! 🥹
unlabelledView post →I'm wondering what game to stream next. After 8 playthroughs of Silent Hill f, I think I need a break from that game. Considering Whispering Hills, Silent Hill: Homecoming, replaying Silent Hill 1. Or Dementium The Ward Or something lighter like a Spider-Man game? I dunno What do you guys think?

unlabelledView post →180. like 30 minutes of Silent Hill: Homecoming Most of this was troubleshooting the PC port and then playing like a tiny bit of the game until giant bugs popped out of the floor and I immediately closed the game because I hate giant bugs :(
unlabelledView post →Yes, my favorite game in the series was Silent Hill: Homecoming. Why do you ask? 🤪
unlabelledView post →You know, I think Silent Hill Homecoming would have been a much better game if they had just created a psychological horror based on a soldier's experience/trauma/PTSD with Alex instead of making it all centered around The Order (ofc this wouldn't alleviate the game's mechanical faults)
unlabelledView post →Yeah so in my experience there is always a chance that customs could open your package and confiscate the game. It may or may not have happened to me with Silent Hill Homecoming back in the day 😶🌫️
unlabelledView post →I started a blind playthrough of Silent Hill Homecoming on stream last night and I'm actually not hating it as much as I expected. I'm only a couple hours into it, though. Despite any flaws the game has, at least it has a banger soundtrack composed by Akira Yamaoka.
unlabelledView post →Been watching some Silent Hill: Homecoming stuff and I'd forgotten just how much "dark" and "twisted" poetry there is in that game. Next Silent Hill game should be set at a writer's retreat where the characters are tormented by the abstract representations of scansion and metre.
unlabelledView post →Playing thru Silent Hill: Townfall currently. Once you get the hang of how the stealth works, the game becomes pretty easy. I like the game, so far. I like that the devs tried their own thing. It's far from the worst Silent Hill. Homecoming and Downpour were way worse than this.
unlabelledView post →Still want to finish Silent Hill: Homecoming, so I asked Pyre if I could borrow his XBox if I got physical copies These bastards want $40 for this game 💀 I may be desperate, but I'm not that desperate
unlabelledView post →On Silent Hill: Homecoming one of the playtesters was adamant that we add grenades. He also wanted AK-47s and AR-15s, and maybe a rocket launcher/RPG "but that might be too much". "The main character is a soldier, right?" Well... There is an entire game about that. With a story, and writing!

unlabelledView post →Sickness can't keep me from playin' games!! At 3:00 cst (ABOUT 30 MINUTES FROM THIS POST), I'll be starting Silent Hill: Homecoming for the first time everrrr!! I am excited for more Silent Hill shenanigans. I will also be talking about some stuff before we get into the game. I hope to see you guys!
unlabelledView post →Y'know, listening to discourse, you'd think Silent Hill: Homecoming was the worst game ever released or something. About 4 hours in, my report back is: Not that bad. Mid, but not terrible. The PC version is built out of toothpicks, though.
unlabelledView post →2026 Video Game #3 ✅ Silent Hill Homecoming I really enjoyed this game! I read reviews with complaints on the combat but I didn’t really have any issues. Silent Hill rankings: 2 Remake > Homecoming > 3 > 1 This may be my last Xbox game unless I play more games from rare replay.

unlabelledView post →So, i caved in for one more game. Silent Hill Homecoming lol🥲 So its total of 10 games i bought😤 We stuntin on #stunt101 💀☠️🤡
unlabelledView post →I was always a bit iffy about Konami hiring external studios for their mainline franchises. Especially during the Silent Hill Homecoming timeline. But these new projects seem to pay off. Another good Silent Hill game? Konami is climbing back up.
unlabelledView post →As a fun fact on this: Silent Hill Homecoming outright refuses to run properly outside of Windows XP, and even then, is a mess with different sets of game-breaking bugs depending on whether you play fullscreen or windowed. For some cursed reason, it works perfectly fine with Proton
