She discovers that the cult plans to use her to birth their god, and becomes caught in a conflict within the cult. ''Silent Hill 3'' was mostly well received by critics, especially in its presentation, including the environments, graphics and audio, as well as the overall horror elements and themes that are continued from past installments. Its plot was loosely adapted into the 2012 film ''Silent Hill: Revelation 3D''. ==Gameplay== Gameplay in ''Silent Hill 3'' resembles closely that of its two predecessors, the three main gameplay elements being combat, exploration, and puzzle-solving. Combat, as exploration, takes place in third-person view, with the player able to equip weapons found throughout the game. Heather may also block and perform side-step maneuvers to avoid enemies.〔 As a series staple, the flashlight and radio return, the latter of which crackles when monsters are in proximity. Players can set the difficulty of both the combat and puzzle elements of the game separately. In the case of the puzzle difficulties, there is a large difference between the "medium" difficulty level and the "hard" difficulty level; one of the puzzles on the "medium" level requires only simple pattern recognition, while the "hard" difficulty level version of the same puzzle requires knowledge of Shakespeare plays to complete.〔 The game also features unlockable weapons and costumes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Silent Hill 3」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
