Of the many great things about the Silent Hill series down the years, possibly the last thing you'd be inclined to wax lyrical about is the game's clunky combat.
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.
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.

The Silent Hill series has been around for a long time, and there have been nine main releases since its inception. It's time to rank all of them from worst to best.
The announcement of Metal Gear Survive is just another step on Konami's long, long path in screwing up their own videogames.
This reflects my feelings of the game.
So now we have reviews between 4/10 to 9/10 ... this is why reviews don't matter anymore, it's the personal taste that matters. My advice: try the demo of Silent Hill: Book of Memories and see if you like it or not. I actually like it a lot.
I thought it was pretty garbage.
Why the f**k do I have to press X everytime I want to open a door? Why does it seem like every Zone is the same, except with different room structures? This game is repetitive as hell, and for it being my first Silent Hill, I am very disappointed with the whole experience.
