Media The Silent Hill series discussion thread.

[Biojex]

The narrative themes in SH4 disturbed me more than any other SH game.

I'd love them to do a SH: The Room director's cut. Of course, the rumor was that it started out as a new IP, and changed into a SH title. I'd love a version that has new levels to explore, outside the APT.

This thread has inspired me to finally give downpour a shot. I love the first 3 games but haven't really followed the series in the past couple of years.

So is anyone a fan of the first movie? Personally I think its pretty good. Defiantly the best adaptation of a video games to a film. I haven't watched the second film yet though.

I am replaying Downpour now, and gotta admit that the monster designs range from 'uninspired' to 'goofy as hell' so don't expect cool creatures, sadly. first movie was ok; I enjoyed the 2nd - its by no means a great film, but it was entertaining

Same here. I'm gonna beat Homecoming first and buy Downpour soon. I know all Silent Hill games post SH3 can't never live up but I've never regretted playing them. Origins was great, and so was Shattered Memories. The only reason I never beat Homecoming was because it was riddled with bugs.

You should give Origins and Shattered Memories a try, definitely worth your time and cash.

 

[Matt S]

There is a Ps2 version of Origins, if anyone still has their old consoles or Fat Ps3

I might. I actually do still have an old Ps2 that my daughters use for a DVD player in there room. I have such a huge backlog of games I need to play though. I found downpour at Walmart for $15 so that's defiantly next on the list. Homecoming is the other SH game that came out on 360 and Ps3 correct? I don't know why I never played that one since that was when I still had plenty of free time to devote to games.

Yes, Origins/Shattered Memories were ported to the PS2 although the preferred console when playing Shattered Memories is the Wii due to the motion controls but no matter.

Both games were also on the PSP.

Homecoming is on PS3, 360 and PC although to my knowledge the PC version suffers from bugs. Heck, the PS3 version I'm playing is riddled with bugs as well, hope you fare better!

The first movie is great. The second is a rushed mess.

For the games I am unfamiliar with numbers 5, 10 and 11.
For the record I was NOT a fan of shattered memories. Numbers 2, 3 and Origins are probably my fav.

 

[Jameson Rook]

Anybody played Silent Hill 1 recently? While I do boot it up few times a year, I haven't really done a full playtrough for nearly a decade.

I was thinking of doing a series run with SH1 on Vita, SH2, 3, 4 on PC, Homecoming on PS3, Origins and Shattered Memories on PS2 and finally I'll buy Downpour. Might be fun to do play the whole series in order again.

 

[Matt S]

Wait, I am tired, Silent Hill 1 is now on the Vita?

Well, it's on PSN Classic and by purchasing it there you can play it on PS3, PSP and Vita. It looks great on the OLED screen.

 

[Matt S]

I swear I've looked before and nada; thanks, will check it out!

I think you need to play the games first, cuz that's all she talks 99% of the time.

I can wing it.
