Silent Hill: Shattered Memories marks Silent Hill's debut on the Nintendo Wii where the fear is more real than ever before. Players will be drawn into the mysterious town using the Wii Remote as a flashlight and a cell phone as they search for clues. Shattered Memories promises to be more terrifying than ever. The choices the players make will shape Harry Mason, as well as the people he meets and the places he visits. The enemies evolve as well, taking the form of the player's deepest fears.

Emulation Information

The snow particles don't work correctly. They sometimes appear for a second and then disappear again or flicker for a while. This can be corrected by disabling "Store EFB Copies to Texture Only". Refer issue 10054.

Enhancements

Lighting Issues at >1x IR

When using higher resolutions, severe lighting issues may happen, especially near the tip of the flashlight. This can be repaired by disabling "Scaled EFB Copies", which may result in some effects being lower resolution, or by enabling the "Vertex Rounding Hack" in 5.0-3251 or newer. Fixed in 5.0-7714.
