Silent Hill: Past Life #3 Review
Digital Retribution’s review of Silent Hill Past Life #3:
Silent Hill: Past Life #1 and Silent Hill: Past Life #2 were both really high calibre horror comics. Fantastic art and a solid script have made Past Life one of the most enjoyable and interesting reads of the past year, which is genuinely surprising and very refreshing, as generally straight out horror books tend to be ...

Bassett on Rumor Control
Apparently IMDB has decided who will play Heather in Silent Hill: Revelation, however Director/Writer Michael J Bassett has confirmed this to be false saying, “Heather has NOT been cast. Despite the IMDB ‘rumored’ status of Alison Lohman being attached, it simply has not one vague shred of truth to it.” Many may remember Alison Lohman from Matchstick Men and Drag Me to Hell but...

Downpour for the Wii?
“Silent Hill was never a franchise that sold a lot but Silent Hill Shattered Memories has now sold 390K copies and according to VGC is tied for the best selling single system Silent Hill in history. It is tied with Silent Hill Homecoming for the 360 but S.M is likely to reach 400K and it probably costs Konami less money to make as its non HD.
I know why most publishers...

Crafting Atmosphere: Silent Hill: Downpour And The...
Silent Hill: Downpour is being developed by Vatra Games, a new studio based in Brno, Czech Republic. The unique Central European environment has the team’s creative juices flowing. Mummified corpses beneath the streets, a huge cavern with a dark past, and a history of Soviet rule make up a portion of the inspiration they’re surrounded by. Needless to say, the country’s chaotic past has made...

Q: Can Konami bring its 'franchise' back to the...
can survival horror live again?
Silent Hill 1 thrilled through its deliberatly obtuse setting and that terrifying radio that belched out static whenever monsters stumbled near. Silent Hill 2 expanded on the scenario, adding a tale of psychosexual guilt so dark and twisted, the Eastenders scriptwriters would have thought twice (before making it darker – and more implausible). And Silent Hill...

Ashes to Ashes: 30 Day Silent Hill Challenge... →
skybluegloom:
After about an hour trying to find a Silent Hill challenge, I couldn’t find one. So I guess I’m gonna make a personal Silent Hill challenge for myself. Yes, I will take obvious questions if there is a challenge out there so just stop bitching.
Others can take this challenge too. I don’t care….

Its a video explaining the Silent Hill games' plot lines, in its entirety, as well as some of their views on the current games and the future of the series.

Why Silent Hill 2 Is So Great
What gives Silent Hill 2 the ability to be so life-changing to so many players, and why? What is it about James’ journey to redemption that touches us on such a deep, emotional level?
Personal relation.
Gaming is unique as a medium due to it’s heavy interactivity. Unlike a book or movie, which tells a story at a glance, a video game allows the player to be drawn in, immersed in the story and...

2 Questions: What Silent Hill is the scariest?...

everydayholidayfromreal-deactiv asked: I like what you said about SH4 in that last question (about it being the scariest). I'm one of those people that actually think 4 may have been higher up in the series, as far as gameplay factors go. A lot of people were so focused on the fact that it wasn't a traditional SH (albeit, it wasn't originally supposed to be a SH) that they lost sight of everything else. SH4's...
helmhammerhand asked: I think it would be awesome if there was some kind of reply feature! I find myself wanting to add my 2¢ a lot. I'm not sure if you have posted this before, but it's interesting food for thought. This article by Jim Sterling follows survival horror and the changes in game play & style over time, pointing out why survival games today seem almost incomparable to their predecessors....

youmadeitallup asked: How could you forget the mirrored room in Silent Hill 3 for scariest moments? I was by myself on a dark rain day when I went into that room in the hospital. I was so freaked out that I did continue playing for a few days, then I needed someone to help me through parts. There are times when I hear sounds that remind of Silent Hill and start freaking out. Something triggers in my mind, and I think...

taylortheimpaler asked: Recently there has been speculation that Red Pyramid Thing's real identity is Xuchilbara, the red god from the Genesis story of the cult. Personally, I find this to be false. For one, Xuchilbara wasn't mentioned until the third game, and two, this information was brought up in one of the Silent Hill comics (i don't know which one) which are written by completely separate writers....

perceptionsofviolence asked: I don't hear many people talk about Silent Hill Shattered Memories so it surprised me when you brought it up :3! That game is highly underrated because it is really amazing. I always found it kind of funny that Silent Hill 2 is praised way beyond the first game. Did you enjoy the first game at all?
