    Overall Silent Hill as suspected every one including myself instantly compared it to Capcom's Resident Evil. But shockingly enough Silent Hill snuck some originality into the game. One being Harry can't shoot for crap, second the addition of detailed maps, radio and flashlight. Plus the game is dark as dark can get even with your lights on. The Gameplay is slightly linear, point A to point B thing. But the sounds and music score will keep you freaked out. I would... Read more

    Capcom's Resident Evil was, in the day, the ultimate example of Survival Horror. The jewel in the crown of the genre, it made zombies cool again and gained a widespread cult following. Ironic indeed that, by the time the PS2 had dawned, Capcom's monster capping franchise had managed to turn the entire Survival Horror phenomenon into a bit a sad parody of itself. Dire releases like the Playstation's Nemesis and the failed Code Veronica quickly made the series i... Read more
