Well, I really love Silent Hill so I thought I would make a thread to discuss it with others who like this game or play it.
What is Silent Hill? Silent Hill is a survival horror video game franchise, developed and published by Konami. In the series, the player takes control of an "everyman" protagonist traversing through the decrepit and nightmare infested remains of the town of Silent Hill. Typically, the storyline unravels a psychological repression regarding the cast of characters along with the tainted history regarding the eponymous town.
Currently they have
Silent Hill
Silent Hill 2/Restless Dreams
Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 4: The Room
Silent Hill Orgins
Silent Hill Homecoming (5)
Silent Hill Shattered Memories
And it has been rumored they have a 8th one in the works.
So what do you guys think of the series? I personally love how the game has that themes of "in your head". With there being several types of realms of existence within Silent Hill.

2 and 3 are awesome. I tried to go back to play the first, but the graphics have aged poorly, and doesnt do it for me anymore.
4 was originally another game they converted into a Silent Hill game so I'm kinda meh about it and have never realy played much of it.
The newer ones were made by a different team, and aren't really that scary like the first few, you always seem to have plenty of health and guns (i think youre an ex army guy in homecoming or something, it just takes away from the game being scary), rather than the early games runing around with only a lead pipe for a weapon, low on health going "OH FUCK OH FUCK I'M SO DEAD GOD HELP ME" that really added to the scariness.

Yeah, turns out he wasn't in the army at all. The time spent away was in a hospital or something.

Yeah, that's why you use only the pistol and melee stuff in that game. Makes it more scary. Also in the newer games they handle the weapons with more ease. It was more realistic when the weapons were hard to use.
