I haven't seriously played a horror game since Resident Evil 2 on the PSX (RE5 doesn't really count imo), and I've only ever played a demo of the first Silent Hill. The question is: is the HD collection worth it for anything other than its nostalgia value?

I played Silent Hill 2 for about half an hour two years ago. I was too scared to go on. I am bad at survival horror.

Which is why I can say with confidence that Resident Evil 5 is great.

The Metal Gear HD collection was really well done, so maybe this one will be too? I'd say give it a shot if you wanted to try them, probably the most convenient way to do it.

To clarify, RE5 was fun, I just don't really see it as being horror so much as an action game with sorta-zombies.

Exactly! I could play and enjoy Resident Evil because there was no fear, just me, punching the s**t out of a boulder! RE5 is one of my favorite games.

What drove me mad was when that one girl kept burning up ammo and generally being stupid.

I was fortunate enough to always have a bro handy to play with me. No infuriating AI here! Just smooth sailing and failed quick times because all my friends are unfamiliar with the PS3 controller.

"I hit X!"
Nope, that was square.

Apparently the game is garbage. Do not buy it.

I got a friend who like the originals, he said they changed a bunch of stuff. New voices, new sounds, apparently they messed up the fog or something. He might just be biased.
