Silent Hill 2 vs The Last of Us
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.

The Last of Us
The Last of Us is one of the most critically-acclaimed adventure game, mainly because of the incredibly well-written and paced as well as emotionally-charged storyline that purportedly can make most grown men weep. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where infected humans or hostile survivors roam abound, you'll play as Joel, a mercenary who was hired to smuggle a 14-year-old girl, Ellie, out from the military quarantine zone. However, as you might expect, things went wrong and you'll find yourself making the journey the gruelling way instead.The Last of Us has won multiple awards and nominations since its release and has been touted as one of the most well-made console game for 2013. This is not at all surprising considering how well the game was made and how amazing both the graphics and the sound complement each other.
