Silent Hill 2 Remake Wikipedia Page Targeted by False Review Edits
Following the early access release of the Silent Hill 2 Remake, the game's Wikipedia entry was subject to vandalism by disgruntled fans. These edits falsely lowered the game's review scores from various publications. The motivation behind this coordinated attack remains unclear, although speculation points to dissatisfaction among a segment of the fanbase.
Possible "Anti-Woke" Motivation?
The incident has sparked online discussion, with some suggesting a connection to an "anti-woke" agenda. However, definitive evidence supporting this claim is currently lacking.
Wikipedia Takes Action
In response to the repeated false edits, Wikipedia administrators locked the page to prevent further vandalism, implementing semi-protection measures. The page has since been corrected.
Positive Critical Reception
Despite the online controversy, the Silent Hill 2 Remake has generally received positive reviews from critics. For instance, Game8 awarded the game a score of 92/100, praising its emotional impact on players. The game's full release is scheduled for October 8th.
