Silent Hill 3 (PlayStation 2)

 

The story, characters, and production values make Silent Hill 3 a worthy addition to the series.

Graphically Silent Hill 3 is nothing short of pretty. The characters are extremely well detailed right down to their motions and facial expressions. Nothing seems out of proportion on them, and it's clear that they were worked on hard by their artists....

Silent Hill 3 - PS2 review at Thunderbolt Games

 

The mysterious, unspeakably evil town of Silent Hill was once a bright, sunny vacation spot. But evil forces were called up and the tiny town was plunged into decay. The story of the actual game series that is Silent Hill is quite similar. What began...

I've always enjoyed Capcom's Resident Evil games. The experience of playing them is very similar to watching an over-the-top horror movie - potentially some great fun, but it won't leave a lasting impression on you. However, back in 1999, Konami...

 Akira Yamaoka, the man behind the previous titles' soundtracks, has once again displayed his talents in masterful composing. In a daring manner, he mixes bizarre industrial clanks and noises with traditional rock tunes. It's not exactly your...

Sure, the Horror genre of videogames really started with the Resident Evil series. But it was a little title called Silent Hill that really took it to a new level. Silent Hill contained themes that were more akin to the wonderfully weird film, Jacob's...

Amazing graphics ; Solid, consistant gameplay ; Music and sound will be tough to match ; Will scare the crap out of you

Semi-broken camera ; Story is slow to pick up ; Too much reliance on combat early on

This game is pure Silent Hill. I wuv you, Konami.

The sleepy little resort town sucks you into hell once again.

Amazing atmosphere; superb character design; sick story; truly bone-chilling

Seen the gameplay many times before; doesn't offer much beyond the other titles in the series

What's so scary? A lot.

What it really comes down to though is not how good the music is or how talented the actors are. What matters is how fun the game is to play. Silent Hill 3 is fun, but lacks the intensity of the first game. The intensity was lessened with the sequel,...

This is not to say that Silent Hill 3 doesn't have its share of problems, but I would still anytime rather play the least effective installment of the Silent Hill series than the best that Resident Evil has to offer. Creators Akira Yamaoka and Masahiro...

Silent Hill 4: The Room

 

Silent Hill 4: The Room tells a story as surreal as it is disturbing. Players take the first-person role of an unfortunate man named Henry Townsend, but unlike earlier games in the survival-horror series, they will not explore a strange rural area or dese

The classic Silent Hill horror series continues with Silent Hill 3. As a teenybopper named Heather, players must explore an accursed town and Heather's strange inexplicable fears. Nightmares and reality combine for a potent mixture of uncertainty with eve
