Hell Descent: It looks like Silent Hill 8 has officially become Silent Hill: Downpour. Forum member Lautaro has provided scans of the GameInformer issue. The text for the spread isn’t too easy to read, but we’re sure that won’t stop you from trying.
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.
Finally a name.
Silent Hill: Heavy Rain...I mean Downpour.
Nice a new Silent Hill game. Hope there is a whacky ending like with some of the previous SH games. And hopefully the score(soundtrack) to this SH game is good. I'm armed and ready to kill some moaning nurses and crazed mannequins. Let the horror begin.
Strange name.
Day one purchase! I love me some Silent Hill, with or without Team Silent.
