We have Silent Hill 3!

From what I can gather, it is the same city, but different areas. The stories are not connected. What connects the games is the town itself. Basically, Silent Hill 1 takes place like north of where Silent Hill 2 takes place (guess Silent Hill is a little big).

While I still felt that Silent Hill 2 did maintain the same kind of feel the first one had (the atmosphere for example), have to admit, in terms of story (which would pull me in to these kinds of games) first one is better. Also, the puzzles and so forth, without a little help, does get annoying real fast (on normal. Didn\'t want it to play it on "easy" since...well, I wanted at least some challange). And neither game doesn\'t hold have the same fun factor (all IMO of coarse) to Resident Evil even though I feel that Silent Hill (both games) does a hellalot better in terms of atmosphere (BTW, since I have no GC, can\'t comment on the latest Resident Evil and how its feel and atmosphere is like compared to Silent Hill). Still, I did find Silent Hill 2 enjoyable. And when I get the chance, hope to eventaully finish it.

I wish I had a ps2 right now. Sh2 is giving me more reason why I want one. The price is still a little out of my way though.

Played Sh2:rd(xbox) Thought the story was real bland got real annoying at times. The graphics were better than the original though:D

Not all that excited about 3

*coff*slightly improved graphics and only 5 minuets extra of material*coff**coff*

but IMO the PS2 graphics suit the game FAR better than the Cleaned up X version.

I am going to get SH2 and give it a whirl ,,,,,,the 1st one had 3 different endings maybe 2 is cool the price has dropped

maybe it is like the 1st one

The first Silent Hill was great and I was extremely excited about the second... Then it came out and it was craptastic! Seriously, Konami needs to learn that noise filters and fog does not equal a good game. Nor does annoying puzzles, I mean I enjoy some puzzles just as much as the next game. SH2 puzzles board on the obsecure level though. As for atmosphere wise, it\'ll have a lot to beat due to RE:Rebirth, as that game has oodles of atmosphere for once, espically in the later levels.

Storywise, they had nothing to do with one another. They weren\'t even the same Silent Hill, as both had different street names, etc.

well actually they are both in the same silent hill, but sh1, isin the north, there is a road that would lead to sh1,buts itsblocked, ( ill try to find the name) you can also see on the map a bit of the game on sh1, near the top, you can see the funfair/amusement arcade...thats where sh1 finished

Which puzzles? I thought they were all very well thought out and logical enough to get through with a little thought (as in the original SH). I\'ve completed all the puzzle difficulties except for very easy... oo, I think I\'m up for a real challenge there.

I do have to admit that Silent Hill had a higher freak-out than SH2, could be cause this was the second visit to the town and a little more of the same, but SH2 very well pictured how Silent Hill works on a personal level, and I personally thought  that\'s pretty damn interesting. I could just yap\'n\'yap about all the great little details in the story and town.

yay, the silent hill games are pure class:D

oh yes you r right i new that but forgot  been 4  years since i played

 yes you were right i saw them all it was cool:hat:

L-I-C, I don\'t know what you mean about Silent Hill 2..almost all the puzzles were pretty logical, and it was the only game ever that I could anazlize and that I thought about days after I completed it...it wasn\'t worse or better than SH1, just different...it was more depressing and thoughful, yet less shocking.

my fav puzzle in sh1, was the piano oe... that one really rocked

mmh, honestly, I only played the demo of Silent Hill 2 and I didn\'t really like it. First of all, it gave me the bloody creeps and secondly.. the control seemed very strange. I switched it between the Resident Evil and MGS style, but it still didn\'t quite seem right. I still might buy the game though.. if only for the story.

Ummmmmm...seven, this kind of game is supposed to give you the creeps.
