Once you've played a game that has blood and rust 3 or 4 times, the scary factor goes down.
Luckly for me, (or unlucky) is I have a tendency to get easily wrapped in the world and then get unnerved and startled easily.

The Icy Otherworld, despite playing host to the chase sequences (which look terrifying), just isn't disturbing enough. Although these 2 pictures creep me out for some reason: http://uk.psp.ign.com/dor/objects/14325 ... 95qjoc9p1p

I don't know why people see the Icy Otherworld being the opposite to the Bloody One-I know fire played a part in it, but it wasn't the defining characteristic. If they had another otherworld that revolved around another bodily fluid, I think that would be a lot more suitable
...creepy much?

I'm pretty sure he's jumping from building to building but sorta hard to tell lol. Who knew Harry did parkour?
I'm looking forward to the chase scenes. SH already makes us think deeper so it might as well make us think faster, too. After the chase it lets you cool down (hah) by freezing up the doors and windows allowing you to take all the time you need to solve a puzzle. I like it but it might get a little repetitive. And for the record, I like the ice.

im curious to know if every monster encounter will be a chase sequence like this, or if there will be free roaming monsters around like classic silent hill style. i would like to see a mix of the two because i think if it is only the chases, it will get a little repetitive

I'm going to guess that they'll only be in the nightmare sequences, since normal Silent Hill in this game is actually normal; there are people living there for starters so I doubt we'll have monsters roaming the streets randomly.

I think this is kind of a cool idea. I doubt it would be implemented, though. XD But perhaps there'd be an achievement for getting away from the monsters quickly? Or perhaps completing the game with a low number of times beasties have attacked and tried to slow down Harry? Maybe there'd be an achievement for 100 roof top jumps. XD I don't know. The nightmare chase sequences seem like they'd have an achievement or an unlockable associated with them. XD But that's just me.
Also, I'd be interested to see how the monsters evolve throughout the course of the game and how boss battles are executed.
Aaand~ I'm undecided on the new 'icy' look of the other world; I can see it working very well but I can also see it just not being scary enough.

Dude, I'm having the chills and I don't even played this game yet.
I was looking for some videos on youtube an I saw monster's grabbing Harry from every possible way, there was a scene were he was going under a table and the monster grabbed his feet, in another one Harry was looking trough a door, and there wasn't anything in the room, from the middle of nowhere a monster comes.

Yeah, I second this. Something tells me that I won't be able to play this game in the dark. I also have a feeling that I won't be able to take walks in the woods on my own for sometime after playing this game-instead I'll be running. XD

So you guys don't like the chasing? Why? That's the whole point is you can't fight back so you have to do the next best thing....RUN

Plus its true to real nightmares. I mean have you ever had a nightmare where you're armed with a shotgun, rifle, and katana? In nightmares, you're usually always completely defenseless and always forced to do nothing but run or hide.

See, I'm really looking forward to the chases, but then, I seem to be one of the few people who really enjoyed the secong half of The Room, which basically played out like a huge chase scene. I enjoy that kind of adrenaline pumping horror. It's like the first time I played SH1, after leaving the Green Lion Antiques shop I just ran and didn't stop until things went back to fog world, I hope that they manage to catch that feeling of pure terror in these chases.

as much as i have seen, the chases/fleeing is really good looking and pulls you in and shout 'Run Harry RUN!!'

I'm finding looking behind you to see the monsters getting ever closer is terrifying and incredibly intense, but in a Resident Evil 4 "ohmygodohmygodohmygod!!!" way and not in a suspenseful, disturbing, Silent Hill way.
It gets so frustrating though, how you can just get lost and go around and around in circles, and how the motion controls work less and less the more tired Harry gets, and relying on the pointer to turn/steer harry while he runs doesn't really work so good and I don't feel confident in my own actions in the game, perhaps this is better with a couple of analog sticks.
EDIT: I'm now at a maze-like bit in the mall, and I want to strangle whoever designed this game.

It is more like. "Where is the BLUE!!! WHERE THE FUCK IS THE BLUE!!! GET OFF ME YOU BITCH, RUN PANSY!HARRY RUN!" Or you know, something along those lines. Although I tended to yeah more at Kaufmann than anyone else in the game.

At first I found them scary, after a while like you I just found them annoying, it sort of went from "Please don't hurt me!" to "Oh would you just bugger off already!" over the 5 hours or so of the game.
