Favorite Silent hill

what is your favorite silent hill game also what you like of it
for me i like the darkness in every place and you just have a litle lantern to see also the fog that every silent hill have and of course the horrible mosters that you have to fight like my favorite pyramid head

I liked Silent Hill 2 the most, because I rather dislike the whole 'cult' idea that pops up in the other games. I like the idea that, for James, Silent Hill is a personal hell that is calling him to face the darker truths about himself and his actions that he wasn't strong enough to consciously face on his own. Many of the monsters that roam the town symbolize his guilt, wish for punishment, or sexual repression during his wife's three-year-long illness. I was actually pretty upset that the movie - which was terrible in a lot of other ways, I know - used "Pyramid Head" out of context. He represented all of the above. He was an executioner, a person who represented James' masochistic need for vengeance against himself for his actions... not only James' guilt and anger, but also the sexual deprivation that he endured - which was displayed many times when Pyramid Head was shown killing the provocatively-dressed nurses.

Well, my favorite would have to be the only one that I played, and that is the first one. I swear, I am too damn scared to play the thing, it's that good. What really make these things scary, in my opinion, is the limited movement your given. I mean, you walk a bit this way, then something come's after you, you know you ain't outrunning that mother.

I think the exposure to darkness is also scary, as well as the sound effects/music - Silent Hill has some great atmosphere altogether though, that's for sure. Especially when you're playing on a faulty TV that doesn't have it's brightness set properly!!

Shattered Memories because is the only one i ever finish
But i like SH 3 too

Weird. It said that you quoted me, but I don't see a quote.

Shattered Memories! it's one of the best and unique silent hill games i played so far. not to mention it's also a psychological test.

the best for me is the SH1 or sh2 in the ps1. the only game i can't play even in the morning. Lol

Silent Hill 2 for me. Im eagerly waiting every playthrough that i can finally beat up Pyramid head again. But i wish it had 2-3 more bossfights, like in Silent Hill 1. (wich is my second fav.)

Silent hill 2 for me. Unique. Tense. Surreal. Great gameplay.

Simple.
