Silent Hill 4

This is my first time playing Silent Hill. As much as I'd love to say its the best ever I cant... because I can't even get out of Henry's damn room. And whats even more pathetic is it's the VERY begining of the game and I dont even know what to do.... So if maybe someone could help me out... God, I'm an idiot ^_^;;;; Thanks.






Fatal Frame 2 rocks my fuzzy pink socks!

Read this

I´d advise you to start up with part one of the series, if you can stand the graphics from a nowadays point of view ;)

Otherwise try part two or three, they´re easy to get and both are platinum games for Ps2, so they don´t cost the world.Part4 got a lot of changes to the series, e.g. the missing fog and the fact that you don´t have a flashlight...

Well everyones got an opinion, this was my mine :P

@Crimson butterfly:

Just walk around his livingroom and other rooms and look at everything which displays an eye. If you don't feel like paying attention to those details then trow the game away and go play some arcadegame. An movie should start once you've looked at the proper objects and you should be on your way.

BTW, not to be a but you don't get out of the room (or perhaps you will but then I'd spoil the ending)

I liked Silent Hill 4 . I really want to try Silent Hill 3, seeing that it is said to be the best game of the series.

It is.. ;) ;) ;) :P

well, actually SH2 ist the best while SH3 went kinda action game ala ResiEve. 4 was just dumb...well on PC it was, maybe better on consol.
ALONE IN THE DARK 5 is commin...YAY!!

Silent Hill 1 had the best scare factor, gameplay, big enviroment.
Silent Hill 2 had a good story
Silent Hill 3 I dont know, it was average. A lot of gore, a lot of blood.
Silent Hill 4 without a guide it would take me too much time to beat the game. i would never realized you had to wash the coin in the sink.

I only played the demo for 4, but it seemed there was a lot of 'pixel hunting' and use of silly triggers going on? Like "examine this bit of wall, then use the phone twice to trigger a cut scene, then you can check the wardrobe where something has randomly appeared". The random stuff wasnt scary, just annoying. I liked the idea of SH4, it was just poorly executed imho.

SH1 and 2 were my favourite for different reasons, but 3 was a little mundane..I never finished that one!
