Best Silent Hill game?
« on: July 23, 2010, 08:43:44 am »

My own option is that first game is always best (not same in Fallout...)
I love first game and it got good story about Harry Mason, man that daughter Cheryl is missing in Silent Hill.
Good bosses and good cutscenes that make game even more horrible that it looks in pictures...

Video about best cutscene in Silent Hill 1.

Fallout is definitive better and much more consistent than Fallout 2.

I personally like Silent Hill 2 most. 3 was good as well. What I really didn't liked was 4. Didn't played any other SH games.

lol.




@ the Topic: I liked Silent Hill 2 the most. The 3 was pretty good too imo.
But it's too long ago I played them, so I don't know the plot etc.
Never found these games too "scary" or "creepy", I liked more the general way the artists built up their game etc.

I found them creepy as hell, but I'm easily disturbed. I only played two and three, only actually finished two.

Probably the most atmospheric music I've ever encountered in a game - I can't think of a game that would suffer more than Silent Hill from no music.

I always wanted to see the film that's supposedly a huge influence on the SH series - Jacob's Ladder. Just never got around to it.

I meant they are more "creepy" in a "sick" way, not with so many cheap stings like in Resident Evil e.g where you easily can analyze the tension and know "*yawn* - oh, am I supposed to be scared? Now? *Zombie Cracking through a door* - Sigh." etc.

That's what I meant - the silent hill games provide more a unknown threat, you can't tell what thing XY is, when things all of a sudden turn into rusted, dirty shit etc. Thats more appealing to me then easily explainable stuff..

Yeah, I should've said disturbing rather than creepy. But I think even though they use the same mechanics, SH is more genuinely disturbing - I think Resident Evil was more about the survival part of survival horror. RE strikes me as a B-Movie turned video game. Gory and fun, but with no real depth.

I did enjoy the first era of Resident Evil games. Even though they were clunky, having to deal with stuff like ammo conservation always appeals to me in games. I want a zombie game that focused on survival as much as killing zombies. Setting up a safehouse, scavenging for supplies, helping or exploiting other survivors. Maybe we'll get one eventually.

Reminds me of ZRPG from DoubleBear Productions.

Also, there is "Urban Dead". It's a text based Zombie-Survival game etc. If you don't bother not having awzum graphicz it may be something for you. : www.urbandead.com/


Memo to myself: I am using "etc" far too often etc.

ZRPG looks good. I'll be keeping an eye on that, but it doesn't look like release will be any time soon.

And yeah, I used to have an Urban Dead account a few years ago. Logged back in today, not much changed. Fun game while it lasted, though.

Silent Hill 2. When it comes to Resident Evil, I agree with Badger - they were good while they had the old mechanics, everything until RE4 was excellent. RE: Rebirth is still my favourite survival horror ever - and the Wii edition plays well on PC with the current Dolphin version.

I always wanted to play Resident Evil: Outbreak. Old-style RE with a group of people would have been fantastic.

I have no idea if PS2 emulators support online play.
