Rely on Horror: The Silent Hill series is home to many diverse characters. Men, women, and even children have walked the streets of the powerful town. Only one female has been a protagonist though. Heather Mason, AKA Cheryl, AKA Alessa was the only female that we the players could control in the Silent Hill series (canon titles) Yes, Heather’s role as the lead in Silent Hill 3 was extremely important, because of her ties to The Order, but why haven’t we seen another game starring the opposite sex? Now that the series appears to be branching away from The Order, we should be able to jump into the shoes of a female character with her own trauma and issues.

id throw haunting ground into the mix. it still looks fantastic.
but i still dont quite understand why we never got a dragon quest 8 remaster for ps4. even the damn 3ds got one.
Silent Hill 3 was straight up sorcery. It has better hair animation than most modern games, which is wild to me.

The Silent Hill 2 different editions, pre-order bonuses have been revealed, and yes, there is exclusive PlayStation content.
Can't wait for this game!! But I'll just get the standard edition with pre order bonus.
I would prefer not. But my wife is standing over my shoulder saying yes, Silent Hill is ready. (again)
It's time for a good silent hill....made by Japanese developers.
At this point, I'd just be happy with a good protagonist of EITHER gender.
I haven't found a Silent Hill protagonist interesting since Heather from SH3. :(
I don't know, it it? Maybe it it, maybe it itn't.
There are some interesting points in this article. As a long-time SH fan, I can definitely relate to the thought of playing as another female protagonist. What's kind of ironic, is that Team Silent said back in 2003, when asked why they chose a female character instead of male, that they were tired of creating stories and games revolving around middle-aged men. Guess they weren't so tired of it after all, seeing as how they went back to that particular stereo-type in SH4. Heather's chapter is absolutely one of the more interesting, and seeing a woman descend into madness was a refreshing perspective.
