I am apalled. (Seriously.)

[AlexY]

Kurse you DH, kurse you!

I played Homecoming at my friend's house on his PC. Now, I'm no PC player and the keyboard is hell for me, but- URGHT! I got all the way to the first boss in the Hotel, and I liked the game, it had good moments so far.

But that scene with the Mayor, my f-ing gawd, that was so utterly lame. "I know everyfffing about wafffs goin' on, but I'll be a ffffu-hic-er and drunk so that I could be killed by the ever so obviously dangerous demi-god-monster-ffffing. -hic-* The boss was fine and dandy, but I couldn't play it on the keyboard, so my pal got out his airplane joystick (LOL) and I played through it like that, with him using items on the keyboard. xD

Aaanyway, we continued on like that, only to find the stereotypical nigga-dude with a fo'shizzle shotgun in a police station literally swarming with overpowered enemies just waiting to cut you in half after you almost barely reached the exit.



WTF? I don't need Resident Evil all over again! Hell no!

I am utterly disappointed.

/rant over

It's not all bad, and take heart. There was going to be a part where Mayor Bartlett was going to sing, "I wish that all the women were bells, so I could bang them all day!"

[Lolli]

I guess the new production company thought it would be politically correct to have a black person in the game, well I'll let this stereotype slip as I like Wheeler but in future don't have the black guy talking all Samuel L.

[divinityofdeath]

LIL, yea that scene was so funny. He was drunk out of his mind . I don't see a reason to complain not like our first encounter with Eddie in SH2 was any better .

[divinityofdeath]

oh yea and about that RE racism its not as bad as SHHs racism....the black guy gets killed 4 times in SHH (depending on the choice you make).

[The Crimson One]

Wow, flight sim controller must have sucked, but it's even sadder that it was the best option! And yes, I thought the "black dude" stuff in SHH was terrible. Why not throw in Chris Tucker, and have him go through Silent Hill with us? LAME.

[Lolli]

Chris Tucker in Silent Hill would be so f-ing funny XD Fifth Element Ruby Rhod style:

Chris: *Shoots monster in face* Ooops, do you think he'll be okay?

At least sterotypical Resident Evil black cop wasn't given a steotypical black guy accent, like Wheeler was. In all honesty though it didn't really bother me that much. I suppose it's the same thing as saying women in SH games are portrayed as damsels in distress just as Ashley was in RE4 or Fiona in Haunting Ground.

[The Crimson One]

That's a good point Lolli. Aside from Heather, it's been pretty slim pickins for the ladies.

I mostly dislike the mayor like many other characters in the game because... they are bland and/or doesn't have enough time to really get interesting. Silent Hill 4 did the very same thing.

You playing with an airplane joystick must have been an amazing achievement... makes me want to do it too!

My friend Kyle thought that Wheeler was the best character in the game just for being funny but I didn't like him very much. I just let him die even though I had so many health items just because I liked my health items more than the majority of the characters in the game.

I remember liking that scene with the mayor pretty well, thought it was one of the better done ones actually, but I didn't like him getting killed at the end.

I thought that the game did an okay job with characters early in the game (the first scene with Elle, the first scene with his mom, first scene with Curtis) but like many things in the game the character scenes just got mediocre later on.
