Silent Hill 2 Remake's Review Scores Altered; Page Locked

Oct 06, 2024 3:22 PM

Silent Hill 2 Remake has recently faced tampering on its Wikipedia page, leading to incorrect and impossibly low review scores being displayed. Despite this, the game has been receiving favorable reviews, much to the surprise of some in the gaming community. The vandalism became significant enough that Wikipedia moderators had to lock the page to maintain accurate scores. This incident highlights the ongoing discord among players regarding the game's success and the reasons behind such negative alterations.

Why were the review scores for Silent Hill 2 Remake altered on Wikipedia?

The review scores were altered due to malicious editing by individuals who appeared to be trolling the game's success, attempting to assign the game unfairly low ratings that did not reflect actual reviews.

Silent Hill 2, originally released in 2001, is famed for its psychological horror and deep storytelling. Developed by Konami and later revived in a remake by Bloober Team, the game has had a lasting impact on the horror genre. As anticipation builds for the remake, discussions around its reception and any controversies surrounding it continue to foster engagement within the gaming community.
