Aexuz Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) I give this platinum a 3, nothing too complicated, collectibles and miscellaneous trophies are fairly easy to obtain. The sidequests are pretty short except for a couple that can bring some problems with the locations. It takes 3 playthroughs to get all the endings of the game, however the game can be completed in less than 7 hours.

JFryes Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I voted 4. I have completed my first two playthroughs and only have easy miscellaneous trophies left to get. Hard mode isn't particularly hard. My second playthrough was my hard mode/no kills run, and I completed it in about 3 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M-Easy Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I voted 3. My first playthrough was on hard/hard and only really died from the environment and that stupid ass vortex. My final speed run only took 3 hours. I can't think of a single difficult trophy. 3 playthroughs are a bit much (Ending E was awesome though) but I enjoyed the game. Its has that Classic Silent Hill atmosphere in a horribly optimized game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kahalachan Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 This was a pretty easily platinum. Rated it a 3. I wasn't even gonna trophy hunt but I saw how close I was to a platinum and went for it. This glitch saves loads of time not having to worry about collectibles. http://www.ps3trophies.org/forum/silent-hill-downpour/150964-awesome-silent-hill-historical-society-glitch.html Ending E was pretty funny and awesome. Enjoyable game and an easy platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkGuardian Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Give it a 4, everything is doable but some trophies can be a pain if one is trying to do too much in one go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreezyNate Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 in terms of difficulty I give this a 3 in terms of time-consuming i'll give this game a 5 based on having to do 3 playthroughs and doing all those sidequests involves alot of boring walking around to find stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kakihara301 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I gave it a 3. Fairly simple to plat. Depending how u play, can be mid range time consuming. My first playthru I did a TON of exploring. Took 15:54. 2nd playthru was Surprise Ending on easy. Took 4:45. Third was on Hard/Hard. Took 3:34. Really easy on Hard if you just run. I only killed 6 enemies on final run. I was soooo happy with this game. After the disappointment that Homecoming was, I had fairly low expectations for Downpour. Definitely my fave since SH3.

TheClassifiedID Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Doesnt look that hard a plat might give it a shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multitasking Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Very easy plat. Had to beat it four times. First was both good endings,on hard/hard... killed everything in sight.Still got the good end.. Second I mangled doing the bad choice/ no kill. You cannot get the bad endings on a no kill run it seems... Third was both bad ends,. Fourth was surprise. Best speed run was 2 hours 20 minutes give or take about 10 minutes. Good fun, but a cutscene skip would have been lovely. All in all,easy plat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acquiescence Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Just platinum'd it - gave it a 4. Took me three playthroughs. You've gotta be wary of completing all the side-quests during one playthrough; some of them are glitchy and can screw up on you. On my first playthrough, I didn't realise until too late that the shadow sigil quest bugged on me. It was literally the last thing I had to do to get the trophy, so I had to complete all the side-quests again on my second playthrough... very frustrating! Other than that though, it's all relatively simple. Monsters on hard mode are a bitch to defeat, but luckily you can run away from most enemy encounters, so it's nothing too strenuous. Excellent game all in all, despite the technical faults, which I really hope get patched eventually. It's nice to have some legit survival-horror back this gen, with an emphasis on exploration. Best protagonist in a Silent Hill game too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidar80 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I'd give it a 4 from my first play through. It sucks you have to play through the game 3 times but good news at least you can pretty much get every trophy but the endings in 1 run basically so your other 2 can be speed runs.

leigh Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 finally finished all trophies yesterday after 10 to 11 plays. Whew!!! YES! I'd give it a 7/10 difficulty. The numerous side quests made it a lot harder and WEEPING BAT bugged me in weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xernova Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm giving this a 3. Nothing really hard and nothing very time-consuming either (finding/doing all the collectibles/sidequests didn't take as long as it often does in other games). One of the easier Platinums I've gotten, without a doubt. But certainly also a game which I enjoyed playing and finishing all the way. :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwhite82 Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 I gave this a 4, not that hard but dont like 3 playthroughs especially not being able to skip cutscenes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varkovsky Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Voted 2/10. Very easy to plat since you can run from most of the enemies during the hard difficulty playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blevensp1 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Vote 3. You can avoid 95% of combat on hard mode. It would be a 7 or 8 otherwise. I tried fighting some of the prison minions on hard and they destroyed me. Trophy guides and walkthroughs make everything easy. http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/a/blevensp.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Malachite Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I went with a 4. While not very difficult in writing, it is a bit harder in practice as some of the bugs in the game work against you. Pinata Party was a nightmare for me, truly! To anyone who has not unlocked the "Silent Hill Tour Guide" trophy, I recommend doing this on the same run as your "Good Behavior" run to save time on future playthroughs. It is possible to accomplish this--simply skip the bank side quest, and complete all the others. Ideally, you should finish the Birdcage sidequest just above the boat that takes you to the final area of the game. Free this bird, then use the unlocked subway system to take you back to Pearl Creek. Complete the bank job and unlock the trophy for it and, if you have done all the others minus "Digging Up The Past," your Tour Guide trophy will pop. Now reload your save after freeing the 5th bird to preserve your zero kills, and proceed to the end of the game. If you do both Tour Guide and Good Behavior on your first playthrough using this method, your other playthroughs can save a lot of time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFryes Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 You cannot get the bad endings on a no kill run it seems... I can confirm that this is false. I got the bad endings on my no-kill playthrough (on hard mode, not that that would make a difference). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiNeTeeN69 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I gave the game a 3, nothing too hard about this one its a fairly enjoyable plat. The only trouble i had was Pinata party trophy, for some reason it kept glitching for me and would not pop, finally got it on the 3rd play through.

manigamer Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 just platinumed the game ! GAVE IT 4 coz of three playthroughs and horrible framerate in the game ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MutableNando Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I gave Silent Hill 3 HD a 4, not so much for challenge, but for technical problems. I'm doing the same thing with Downpour. I found Hard mode to be fairly easy. At one point I had 25 health packs, and that tends to lessen the suspense. However, I did get beat down several times because of the frame rate and camera. For instance, the camera would suddenly pan left to get around a tree or something in the foreground, and it would hide whatever I was fighting. Or I'd get three still frames and then a shot of the sky, while my screen flashes red from damage. Good times. I thought this was a pretty good Silent Hill game. Like many others have expressed, I think Vatra should have another go at the series in the future and see if they can overcome some of their technical issues.
