This months issue of Play Magazine contains a Silent Hill V exclusive. Considering 1UP and EGM's exclusive was quite a long time ago now, this is likely to actually be something new.
UPDATE: Scans are now at the link, more coming soon.
The sirens are sounding again, beckoning you back to the foggy ghost town as we rank all the Silent Hill games, from the chilling classics to the misguided missteps.
I mostly disagree with Downpour's position. Yeah, the game is not amazing by any stretch of the imagination but is much better than the HD Collection and Homecoming. The main issue is the performance, but that was mitigated by the patches, especially on the PS3. Personally, I put it a little behind Origins and The Room.
Having Restless Dreams as a different entry from Silent Hill 2 is also a choice.
Normally, we would not consider it a different game (Restless Dreams), but since it had a very different critical reception and had new content, it was allowed. As for Downpour, I would agree, but since that one is subjective, we let him make his case for the placement.
silent hill 2 is definitely the best one out of those.
for me personally, the whole ritual/cult stuff was always so weird to me in all the other games.
No disrespect but I put SH2 over 1. 1 is fantastic, but 2 took it all up a level.
Twinfinite: "They said it couldn't be done, be we've tried our best to rank all the monsters in Silent Hill according to their fear factor. Let's go!"
Pyramid Head is my #1 too, despite the fact you don't actually fight him much - and the few times you do are actually super easy. It's all in the presentation & close encounters.
I never thought the monsters themselves were very scary. It was the tension and the unknown, the silent moments that got under your skin that were the most scary to me.
Silent Hill has always been about the psychological horror more than it's gore.
Daily Video Game writes: "Xbox Store has just launched three new digital sales that offers steep discounts on various combat, family, and free to play games for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One, including many Xbox 360 games right now!"
I had no idea Binary Domain was backwards compatible. I know what I'm downloading.
I would like El Shaddi, Afterburner Climax, and outrun 2 please. I am sure that there are other games as well but those came to mind for me right now.
I want some horror games.How I miss the adrenaline rush while playing such games.Condemned and this are on my list regardless of what scores they get.
Um now I have confused feelings about the zombie nurses form EVERY Silent Hill game. WHY DID THEY MAKE HER HOT!!?
IMO whilst Resident Evil games have been pretty good, it is the Silent Hill games that have been un-nerving. Not to say I have not jumped a time or two on Resident Evil, but some of the stuff on Silent Hill has been more.
This is a day one purchase and nothing will change my mind on that.
can't wait for the first next-gen SILENT HILL!!!!!!!!!!!
This game will display the visual and audio muscle that Sony's PLAYSTATION 3 platform has over it's competition. Given with the power of blu-ray, you will see uncompressed audio that will give more of an immersive experience in a horror video game.
