I believe it will be Silent Hill 2.
I\'ve been a Final Fantasy whore for years, but I picked up Silent Hill a few months back, expecting a passable Resident Evil clone, and I instead got something that completely, utterly, in every way outdid Resident Evil. It\'s not just scary, it\'s terrifying. It\'s psychological horror, you jump at sounds, you can\'t see ahead of you, even your one tool to alert you to your enemy\'s prescence isn\'t 100% effective. In Silent Hill, what was coming was never as scary as what you kept THINKING was coming. Harry Mason was a man losing his sanity and it was portrayed brilliantly. And I think with the power of PS2, plus the extra zeal Konami appears to have in making the sequel, I think Silent Hill 2 will be the best of the best this year.
