4Player - "Nick and Bob reflect on their experiences with Silent Hill Downpour, the latest western-developed entry in the cult-franchise. They discuss the reasons why they feel the game is deserving of praise as well as the reasons that the game is not quite as noteworthy as it could be. Is the combat finally improved? Is it spooky? Does it feel like a Silent Hill game should? All of these questions are addressed without any story specific spoilers! Look for volume 2 in a couple weeks to hear our spoiler-filled discussion!"
TNS: “Nightmare fuel to say the least, check out the 10 most terrifying Silent Hill monsters, and what they symbolize.”
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.
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.
