Silent Hill 2 remake lead drops cryptic easter egg hints, says finding all the hidden goodies 'Will take you more than 20 hours for sure'

I believe we've been able to find a nice balance between the memory of the original locations and new content that will be able to surprise even the long-time fans of Silent Hill 2.»
Hearing that the memory of the original game has been kept at least somewhat intact is a little comforting. I haven't been much of a fan of previous Bloober Team games: I found the Layers of Fear remake particularly difficult to sit
