Silent Hill games


Recommended Posts

I've not got a console, but I know that Three and Four are out on the PC, what about the others? Which one's the best as well? I hear 3 is the dog's bollocks. I've played a bit of the first one but it was awhile ago and I don't remember a great deal, one of those games series I've never really got round to checking out...

Res Evil 4 really is the defining point of the series. I've been a fan of the games since day 1, but Res Evil 4 has done an incredible job of wowing both long time players and newcomers/dislikers of the series.

Silent Hill isn't particularly wonderful from the off, but if you persevere a little and go through some areas such as the school or hospital, it can get pretty freaky. It was, at the time a really twisted and frightening experience, far more so than the rather tame RE games. The focus on melee weapons made everything feel that bit more intense and threatening too.

Gameplay wise 4 is defining, but its story and characters (aside from leon and Ada, obviously) are rubbish compared to the untouchable RE2 and REmake.

I love all the Silent Hills, so maybe this is a bit biased, but they're all pretty damn good. 2 is easily the best; its story carries better than many movies for Pete's sake, while 4 brings a fantastic (and fucking scary) fresh perspective to the series.
