Experienced Points: What Made Silent Hill 2 Great and Why the Devs Don't Get It

Shamus Young:

Silent Hill fans are a lot like Sonic fans. Years ago, we got a single magical, series-defining game, and since then we've been waiting for the developers to get their act together and recapture that momentary greatness.

Actually they made 4 masterpieces . Silent hill 4 was so underrated and Silent hill 3 was amazing but because Silent hill 2 set the bar extremely high in term of story for the series , some felt silent hill 3 wasnt up to par but it was excellent on its own and also we got shattered memories which was a different take on the original but it was very good and was really close to silent hill 2 . I can keep talking alot about them but i cant describe just how beautiful the series is . And silent hill 1 was the first silent hill for me and holds a special place in my heart . I cant believe you say silent hill 2 is the first . Its really beautiful but honestly silent hill 1 is just as good .
