the silent hill classic; either "it's locked" or "there's something blocking it from the other side"

The first one reminded me of this:
Well that was what reminded me of "Concerned Citizen" actually. lol. Which is why they were posted close together
why even include a door you cant go through
Silent hill is definitely one of the worst offenders, but again most games would become very short, or have to go total open world which obviously defeats the point of a game like Silent Hill. Long hallways without doors would take from the experience, but no point filling in a pointless doors that distracts from the actual purpose of the game. Besides that would seriously fuck with finding items with so much to explore.

you know what though, i noticed it less in silent hill like instances, because my mind now had a logical reason for me to be unable to progress. this is a ruined city, it makes sense that some of the buildings could have fallen into disarray forcing you through alternate paths. (like the hotel of SH2 
)
i realize it's bullshit but i appreciate them giving me a reason consistant with the game

I've been looking a bit at I Am Alive...it looks awesome, but I just blew my game budget for the next couple months on 'pre-purchasing' Diablo 3

^in sweden the government takes about 30% of your salary in taxes. and that's not counting that we're paying tax for everything else we use and buy. that's what having a socilist government for 80 years does to a country

wow that sucks, see im not sure what its like for upper tier wages, but i know if you make under like 10-15k a year, you still pay taxes, but at the end of the year we get it all back, if you make above that the government takes like 15%, plus all our stuff is taxed 13% (booze is taxed like 200% )
but yeah 30% blows, come to canada, ill show you around. "meet me by the tree in edmonton"

When a silent hill game averages 6-7 in reviews I have a good feeling I'll enjoy it. When a RE game gets 6's I get a strong feeling that I won't be able to stand it.

my friend has been playing SH: Downpour recently and he said its the best one since 2 (hes played all REs and all SHs except 3)
You're doing something wrong
Yes I am, it's called working way too much and getting reamed by the tax brackets...
When I was in school and it was simply working a summer job, I loved tax time because I'd get about $700-$800 back since I did not work enough for the government to tax me. Now I put a minimum of 50 hours a week, (69 last week.. wtf?) so according to the government I "make too much" even though it's a shit job.
