Hell Descent: We received a pretty vague comment about the next Silent Hill title being named Silent Hill: Downpour. We normally don’t go after rumors, but with today’s announcement of the Silent Hill 8 reveal in GameInformer, we got a little antsy. After a good hour of Google-Fu, which involved checking copyrights, trademarks, and possible domain names, the only link we found was with a french site named GameKult. This french gaming site provides nothing more than a category listed as Silent Hill: Downpour which contains Silent Hill 8 media and news.
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.
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.
I don't care about the title, just give me a good game.
Agreed,after the first 3 the others
completely sucked.
I will forever remain the only person in existence to have enjoyed Silent Hill 5.
