  "The games monsters are also brilliantly designed. Many of the games monsters are enough alone to make it a horror title." Written by Justin Blessing.

• Game Revolution   [rate] [review]
  "A terrifying, chilling, disturbing, and in every sense scary psychological horror game." Review by Duke with score.

• GamePro   [rate] [review]
  "Konami takes you on another surreal romp through the suburbs of Hell in Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams." Review by Pong Sifu with screen shots.

  "It's not particularly gory, but it'll send chills down the most seasoned of horror fans' spines, especially if you play it as it should be played - at night and with the lights out." Reviewed by Mike Smith.

• GameSpot   [rate] [review]
  "The game's visuals have the distinct look of a PS2 game. Since that's not in and of itself a bad thing, the game looks good, but it's not the best-looking game on the Xbox. Looks aside, the Xbox-exclusive episode is the main attraction here." Review by Joe Fielder with screen shots and score.

• GameZone   [rate] [review]
  "The people who will enjoy Restless Dreams the most are the ones who already own the game for PlayStation 2 (myself included). Gamers who never played SH2 before will not be able to appreciate all of the subtle differences, but they will be able to appreciate the graphics and the gameplay just as much as everyone else." Reviewed by Louis Bedigian with screen shots.

  "It's probably the scariest game of the last ten years, giving a face to the nameless horror that haunts many of our dreams." Review by Lawrence Neves with screen shots.

  "There's no additional fun hidden in the Xbox SH2, but the overall gloom of the franchise has never been so vivid." Review by Aaron Boulding with screen shots and score.

• PlanetXbox   [rate] [review]
  "There are definite improvements in the Xbox version, however, and despite its faults, this is an involving and disturbing, if incredibly short-lived journey into horror...nowhere near as impressive as Silent Hill." Reviewed by Jason D'Aprile with screen shots.

• Team Xbox   [rate] [review]
  "The town has never looked better, sounded more frightening, or just plain scared the crap out of you like it does on the Xbox." Review by Shockwave with screen shots and score.

• The Electric Playground   [rate] [review]
  "In a game already so dark and visually menacing, the Xbox gives the phrase "jumping at your own shadow" a whole new shade of meaning."
