| JeuxVideo.fr | 5/5 | Audacieux, joli et jouable, Silent Hill : Shattered Memories vient mettre une claque à un genre plus enclin à lorgner sur l'action teintée d'aventure qu'à se réinventer. [...] Shattered Memories fait peur, interpelle, stimule et nous retourne comme une crêpe à chacune de ses séquences, dont certaines sont déjà cultes. | ici |
| JVN | 17/20 | En remaniant les bases de la série, Climax a su conserver le meilleur de Silent Hill et dépoussière une saga culte qui avait définitivement besoin d’un coup de jeune. Culotté, mais admirable. | ici |
| Excessif | 4/5 | Au final, on pouvait craindre un wiimake sans âme mais il n’en est rien. [...] on ne lâche pas la manette avant d’avoir vu la fin de l’intrigue ! | ici |

| Gamekult | 7/10 | Malgré quelques écarts techniques et une structure pas aussi modulable qu'on peut l'espérer au final, ce nouvel épisode signe le retour de la série sur le terrain de l'audace et de l'introspection. Et après un Silent Hill : Homecoming en demi-teinte, on ne peut que s'en réjouir. | ici |
| JeuxVideo.com | 14/20 | Tout en ayant habilement remanié le fond et la forme, les développeurs de Climax se sont néanmoins fourvoyés en cherchant coûte que coûte à construire leur jeu autour de quelques éléments de gameplay. [...] Toutefois, Silent Hill reste plus que jamais une aventure dérangeante. | ici |

| Altern8 | 10/10 | Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is my favorite new release of 2009. [...] Dear Konami: Thank you for breathing new life into the franchise, saving it from banality. | ici |
| Blogcritics Gaming | 5/5 | All in all the game is pretty spectacular. [...] This one comes highly recommended. Play it with the lights on, and it might help to have someone you care about close by, as you may feel the need to reconnect after playing. | ici |
| Destructoid | 9.5/10 | A lovingly crafted story draws you in and then wows you with a surprise ending that leaves a lingering fascination. And chills. I'm still thinking about it. From one die-hard Silent Hill fan to another, this is a true Silent Hill game. A better Silent Hill game. Do not miss this game. | ici |
| Winnipeg Free Press | 4.25/5 | It's a game of wandering through a maze of point & click adventure, of solving a mystery wrapped in the enigma of your own psychosis, so to speak, of bolting and flailing every so often as transmogrified nightmares demand. What a trip. | ici |
| AtomicGamer | 94% | Shattered Memories is in some ways a true return to form for the series, although with recent news of Akira Yamaoka—whose music and vision has consistently defined the series—leaving Konami, it may be the last true Silent Hill game, period. | ici |
| Logia Gamer | 9.2/10 | Sin duda uno de los mejores juegos de Wii en lo que va del año. (Sans doute un des meilleurs jeux Wii qu'on a pu voir depuis des années) | ici |
| Eurogamer | 9/10 | Packed with inventive ideas and one engaging sequence after another, it's a spirited, poignant and unsettling game that not only delivers a long-overduereturn to form, but reinvigorates horror adventures in the process. | ici |
| N-Europe | 9/10 | Without giving too much away, the story is intriguing, and it constantly challenges you to think about where things are going. Is this real? Is Harry crazy? If I can’t trust my senses, then how do I distinguish nightmare from reality? This game has really put the Survival and Horror back into the Survival Horror genre, it’s just a shame the whole experience does not last longer. Roll on a sequel. | ici |
| Nintendo Life | 9/10 | Whether you buy into the psychology bits or not, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is still a great horror game on a console starved for them, yet is more remarkable for being a distinctly Wii game through-and-through. Play it for the atmosphere, play it for the suspense, play it for the story; we don’t care, just don’t miss out on one of the best Wii games this year. | ici |
| Nintendo World Report | 9/10 | Silent Hill: Shattered Memories fills a gap in the Wii's horror lineup, and it does so with finesse and substance. It is a game that can be appreciated by anyone craving a good psychological thriller that makes good use of motion controls and in doing so, appeals directly to the Wii's core audience. | ici |
| Telegraph | 9/10 | Shattered Memories’ daring differences should be celebrated; it’s one of the most innovative and enjoyable survival horrors for many a year. | ici |
| Wii Brazil | 90% | If you never played the original of PlayStation, it's obligatory to play this. For who have already played, it's interesting check out the new features that were inserted and affect the gameplay. | ici |
| Gamervision | 8.75/10 | Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is without a doubt one of the year’s finest games, and is another example of a well made third-party game for the Wii. [...] Shattered Memories strips survival horror down to the bare essentials, and comes out as one of the strongest games in the genre’s history. | ici |
| IGN | 8.6/10 | The game looks fabulous, the controls feel tailor made for Wii, the flashlight mechanic is stunningly atmospheric and useful, and the decision is to omit weapons results in chilling chase sequences. There is simply a lot to love about Shattered Memories, which is why it's so easy to recommend the title despite a couple of shortcomings. | ici |
| Official Nintendo Magazine UK | 86% | It's a shame that it's so short, otherwise this is easily one of the best games on the Wii. | - |
| Everyeye.it | 8.5/10 | Silent Hill gives its best in this disturbing and psychological adventure. | ici |
| Gamer Limit | 8.5/10 | Despite some elements that could have been improved considerably, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories takes the series in a much-needed new direction, making this a game that you simply must experience. | ici |
| Games Master UK | 85% | Wonderfully spooky. | - |
| GameTrailers | 8.5/10 | Shattered Memories deviates from what players would expect from a Silent Hill game, and doesn't really fit the definition of survival horror, but the experience is still very much worthwhile. Exceptionally strong visuals for the platform and creative, well-implemented motion controls make for a memorable experience, as long as you're OK with running away from some of your more disturbing problems. | ici |
| NGamer UK | 83% | The fat's been trimmed, but the horror has dimmed. The result is the most psychological Silent Hill yet, if not the scariest. | - |
| Adventure Gamers | 4/5 | If you’re looking for the creepiest game of the year, you’ll likely find it here. Welcome to Silent Hill. | ici |
| GameSpot | 8/10 | Despite a few issues, including its surprising brevity, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is a great game for anyone looking for a scare, whether you've been to the haunted town before or not. | ici |
| Games(TM) | 80% | A curious and original jaunt about the psyche whose quirkiness and atmosphere far overshadow its few faults and brevity. | - |
| GayGamer | 8/10 | After the disappointing Silent Hill: Homecoming, it's nice to see that Shattered Memories has the venerable horror series back on the right track. | ici |
| GiantBomb | 4/5 | Silent Hill: Shattered Memories takes some bold, unpredictable risks with this venerated franchise, and the result is a heck of a lot more interesting than yet another survival horror game with motion-assisted aiming might have been. And thanks to the careful handling of the narrative, it's an indelible experience that proves you don't need endless shooting and buckets of blood to produce a mature, resonant horror experience, on the Wii or on any other platform. | ici |
| Hooked Gamers | 8/10 | Silent Hill: Shattered memories is an incredibly absorbing game, both in its atmosphere, and everything that you may encounter. Konami certainly have not forgotten at all of why the series is so frightening to us in the first place. This game is scary in all the best ways. | ici |
| Kombo | 8/10 | A mature, unique story populated with interesting characters and locations make Silent Hill: Shattered Memories an easy recommendation for anyone looking for a title that earns its rating without decapitations and nudity. | ici |
| Meristation | 8/10 | This new entry in the Silent Hill series is, simply, one of the best entries in the franchise. It knows what players want and fear, and show them their inner fears on-screen. A great game, with an unforgettable story, but unfortunately it's too short and quite easy. | ici |
| Nintendo Power | 8/10 | So though it may not be the unqualified success we were hoping for, Shattered Memories proves an audacious and ultimately compelling experiment. We only wish it put our extra pairs of trousers to better use. | - |
| AskMen | 79/100 | No matter if you are an old fan or a first-time visitor to Silent Hill, Shattered Memories is a welcome core gaming addition to the Wii library, and one of the best holiday season offerings for Nintendo's console. | ici |
| Worthplaying | 7.8/10 | If you're looking for a unique and interesting horror game for your Wii, though, it's hard to find one better than Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. | ici |
| Game Vortex | 77% | Conceptually, this is a far better game than 2008's Silent Hill: Homecoming, but the technical limitations and awkward controls force it back into tradition with the rest of the Silent Hill lineup. | ici |
| Play | - | Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is a captivating, engrossing, daring, and mostly enjoyable attempt at survival horror, and on that level, I absolutely think it is worth your time and commitment. As a Silent Hill title, I cannot call it bad-because I cannot, as a reviewer, or as a fan, call it "Silent Hill". | - |
| Cheat Code Central | 3.8/5 | The psychological testing bits are also quite interesting and add a ton of replayability and variety to the game. If only the good aspects weren't constantly polluted by the aggravating nightmare portions, Shattered Memories might have been one of the best Silent Hill's yet. | ici |
| A.V. Club | B | Shattered Memories superficially ticks off a checklist of traditional franchise elements: Psychological mumbo jumbo, schismatic world, disturbed protagonist, squicky enemies—but it never entirely feels like a Silent Hill. Which is why it’s a shame a unique, accessible horror experience had to ride the rep of another series, when it’s innovative enough to stand on its own. | ici |
| Game Revolution | B | Silent Hill is decidedly on the brief side, and you may well blow through your first game in six or seven hours—it falls short of what Silent Hill fans have come to expect... but then again, it makes replaying the game for the different endings that much more feasible. | ici |
| GamerNode | 7.5/10 | SH:SM is an impressive game. It uses all of the Wii's features to immersive you, providing a moody and atmospheric experience that plays off of your own psyche in interesting ways. Some technical issues and design choices hold it back from greatness. | ici |
| GameSpy | 3.5/5 | It brings some wonderful new ideas to a franchise that's been starting to feel stale, but it wraps them up in a series of repetitious levels that feel arbitrarily forced in for the sake of making a game that's at least six hours long. | ici |
| Games Radar | 7/10 | Even if you have to suffer through some Nightmare portions that act as a roadblock to thrills, it’s at least worth a rental to see somebody take the Wii in a new – or at least "re-imagined" – direction. | ici |
| GameInformer | 6.25/10 | Its engaging characters, improved story, and unique profiling mechanic only make it worth checking out for diehard Silent Hill devotees willing to wade through the muck. If you’re a Silent Hill fan interested in a fresh take on the stale formula, this Wii entry may be the Cheryl you’ve been searching for – but it comes at a cost. | ici |
| 1UP | C+ | If the developer had tried to keep anything from Silent Hill, they should have ditched the faux plot relationship to past games and gone after what makes Silent Hill truly unique: the psychological scares. | ici |
| GameShark | C+ | If you’re not buying Shattered Memories for the fantastic story, it’s better left forgotten. | ici |
| GamePro | 2.5/5 | At the end of the day, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories isn't a bad game by any means -- it's an incredibly original and ambitious project, but the weight of its problems, both old and new, keep it from being much more than a nostalgic love letter addressed to diehard series fans. | ici |
| G4TV | 2/5 | There’s the kernel of a interesting story here, and one much more psychologically-focused than most of the other games in the series. This could have been the most interesting character study in a Silent Hill game since the masterpiece that was Silent Hill 2, but it just never gets there and is constantly dragged down by gimmickry in the same way Harry is harangued by the shrieking skinless children in so many filler chase sequences. | ici |
