Silent Hill: Downpour brings back many of the older Silent Hill mechanics very well, but also introduces a few more that don’t entirely blend smoothly. Still, it is a very high profile game whether judged in its own right or as a new entry in the Silent Hill series.

A breakdown of the best Silent Hill Characters that inspired and frightened gamers.
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.
Silent hill iss one if my favorite games. The last good SH ga es that I played was home owing and origins. As for downpour, I don't really know what to think about it. It looks like one of those games I have to actually play to make a judgment. I've wat he'd some play thrombus and it only looks ok. I'll probably wait until it drops in price to pick it up, but then again, as a fan I mite even just go on ahead and buy it. I know fir sure I'll be picking up the hd collection and book of memories. The story in that game sounds so stupid.
