Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia Page Targeted by False Review Bombing
The Wikipedia entry for the Silent Hill 2 Remake has been the target of coordinated edits by disgruntled fans, resulting in the posting of inaccurate and deflated review scores. This action prompted Wikipedia administrators to temporarily lock the page, preventing further unauthorized modifications.
Speculation Centers on "Anti-Woke" Sentiment
The motivations behind this review bombing remain unclear, although online speculation points towards dissatisfaction with the remake, possibly fueled by "anti-woke" agendas. The edits falsely lowered scores from various gaming publications. The page has since been corrected and protected.
Positive Critical Reception Despite Controversy
Despite this online controversy, the Silent Hill 2 Remake, currently in early access (full release October 8th), has generally received favorable reviews from critics. For instance, Game8 awarded the game a score of 92/100, praising its emotional impact and effective execution.
