Difference between revisions of "Silent Hill: Homecoming"
(Is this such a big problem? Does this really need a negative note? There are tons of console games ported to PC without achievements (Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, Alice Madness Returns, Syndicate 2012, Lost Planet and much more).) |

Key points
- Frame rate is capped at 30 FPS, no workaround.
- No A/B/X/Y button prompts. 1 = A, 2 = B, 3 = X, 4 = Y. Use Xbox/PlayStation button mod.
- Long loading times; no workaround.
- Video quality can be set to either "Medium" or "High". High will result in slightly better textures and shadows, however, it will also make the film grain effect more noticeable. The film grain can be modded out.
- Alt+Tab ↹ may crash the game.
