Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia Page Locked After Vandalism

The Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia page has been locked down due to repeated vandalism. Unregistered users are no longer able to make edits to the page after a series of untrue claims were made about the game’s reception and Metacritic score.

Vandalism and Motivations

Some of these claims included stating that the game had “received the worst reviews imaginable” and that Eurogamer had awarded it 0/5 stars, when in fact, the game received top marks. The motivations behind these edits are unclear, but some believe they may be fueled by the game’s changes to character facial features and clothing, which some have labeled as “woke.”

Others speculate that the vandalism may be a result of some fans’ disappointment with the remake being developed by Bloober Team or the fact that the game was remade at all.

Positive Reception

Despite the vandalism, the Silent Hill 2 Remake has received a positive reception from critics and players alike. The game is currently sitting on an “overwhelming positive” user score on Steam.

Eurogamer’s review of the game praised its blend of old and new, stating that it “delivers the best horror I’ve played for years.”

The review also noted that the game’s modernization and iteration on the original material was well done, with the reviewer stating that there was “nothing – not a single thing” they wished Bloober had done differently.

The Wikipedia page’s lockdown will remain in place until the vandalism subsides, ensuring that the page remains a reliable source of information for fans of the game.
