Too bad the series went to shit with the 4th one.

Yep... The 4th could be better, if they were not so lazy to use the same locations twice =_= but I still like the plot and the idea of the room with all that poltergeist things, though.
But really, after that... meh. It always sadden me to no end to see how this beautiful series goes to shit. And we lost Yamaoka music too. SH is definitively dead.

Fortunately I've played things since that are just as scary as, if not more than, the original three games.

...Such as? I've been gaming since I could walk, and I don't think I've played anything as scary as the original Silent Hill. It tops most survival horror game lists as well, so I can't be alone in that opinion. What beats it out in yours?

Afraid of Monsters, for one!

Also large chunks of the Thief series, but especially the chapter titled "Robbing the Cradle," the designer of which specifically cited Silent Hill, Session 9 and House of Leaves as his influences. Thief is a primarily stealth-based series, but its fantasy steampunk setting allows for big chunks of horror: everything from haunted mines to a malevolent genius loci.

There's a few others, but those two examples are right off the top of my head. Afraid of Monsters especially is my current standard for scary. Too bad most people won't play it.

Won't play it? What's their reasoning?

[identity profile] dethtoll.livejournal.com 2011-04-03 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, it's for PC, it requires Half-Life on Steam, it's in first person, their PC is too crappy (nevermind that Half-Life came out in 1998 and AoM hardly brings up the system requirements), the usual bullshit.

...Thankfully, Yamaoka went with my favorite producer, and the music he's made thus far is great. Sadly no where close to the same genre, though. :

i also liked shattered memories
just in the interest of providing a balanced set of opinions
