Silent Hill 2 vs The Pit: Infinity
Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to Silent Hill, but instead of trying to continue its predecessor's storyline, the game thrusts you into a whole new adventure as you join James Sunderland whose young wife, Mary, had just passed away due to a tragic event. With his life shattered before it had even begun, he hadn't been able to move on... and three years later, he received a mysterious letter that's apparently from his deceased wife asking him to return to the dark realm of Silent Hill where he will eventually find out the true nature of her death.Silent Hill 2 provides players with a much larger environment to explore in, including many of the previous closed off areas. The game even added special effects, such as real-time weather, fog, morphing and shadows, that is guaranteed to make you jump right off your seat. If you're interested in this game, you might want to check out the Silent Hill Re-Mastered Collection which combines Silent Hill 2 and 3 together in one neat package.
The Pit: Infinity
The Pit: Infinity is a creepy, sci-fi-themed, first-person shooter/roguelike that’s set in an abandoned laboratory that’s overrun by aliens and monstrous creatures, and the goal here is to descend through the many levels of the facility, clearing out enemies in hopes of finding the source and the cure to a plague that had decimated the population on that very planet. Scavenge for crucial resources, battle increasingly difficult creatures, and find the elevator that will bring you one floor closer to the bottom!However, due to the many bugs and issues with The Pit which made it looked like it's an early access game, The Pit: Infinity is unfortunately not the sort of game I would recommend you to buy – definitely not at full price - due to the huge list of bugs and issues that sorely need fixing, but that is not to say that the game isn’t playable or at all fun. I’ve managed to startle myself a good few times while playing the game and, in a resource management way, the game is actually quite satisfyingly challenging to play.
Definitely a game that you might want to add to your wishlist for now if you love the original and/or the genre, and maybe you could check in now and then to see how much of the game has been patched up over time.
