This game was much improved upon the original SH. Just as in the original, it was creepy in all the right spots, and and even more disturbing. I was astonished at the fact that some of the material got past the ratings system... I even found an article on the sexual overtones in this game. I couldn't believe that Pyramid Head appeared to be raping the mannequin in one scene. It was weird... but it made sense once you read that article.

I definitely say that this game is a must-play, if not to find out more about the series, then just for the over-all experience.
