Silent Hill 3 is definately the most scariest of the series, nothing comes close to freaking you out like that game can do.
Scariest game i've ever played, not through out, but just at certain parts, such as the hospital near the end, the alternative changes into a bright red/pink living version of it's self, and the walls and floors are alive and the screen is just disgusting, not to mention the noises and fast beat they throw at you.
Silent Hill 3 is also one of the most enjoyable of the series, the storyline is intense and finishes off the gigantic storyline from Silent Hill 1.
Heather is Harry Mansons daughter, but not the young girl from the original game, but the new born baby he ran away with if you got the GOOD ending.
The game is very long and very satisfying, so much so, it's like living a horrible part of your life you wish never to relive, but be glad it's over, you will always remember it as one of the greatest of the series, but it isn't the type of game you can just play over and over for the hell of it.
Silent Hill 4 - The Room, is a completely different storyline to 3, and it's based on an actual mini-story, that was sneakerly included in a newspaper artical you find in Silent Hill 2.
Whilst playing Silent Hill 2, James even refers to a "hole" that was once there, but no longer exists when he enters alternative silent hill, referring to the type of holes you use to enter the Silent Hill type world in Silent Hill 4.
It appears to me, that Silent Hill 4 was in the making at the same time Silent Hill 2 was, thus the both games have very strong links, infact, the Apartment Manager in Silent Hill 4 is infact James father, Frank Sunderland.
So Silent Hill 1 and 3 are linked, and 2 & 4 are linked, interesting how they have decided to do this.
Regarding Silent Hill 4, it's one hell of a game, it's completely different to the other Silent Hill's, new battle mode, new weapons, 10 item limit inventory, first person mode/3rd person, no radio! (creatures make their own noises)
The game also focuses heaverly on melee combat (fighting with metal weapons) instead of actually guns, infact the guns are pretty crap, and you find yourself falling in love with all types of cutting weapons, my favourite was the rusty axe
The only thing about the game that reminds you, that you are still playing Silent Hill, are the creatures you fight and the surroundings you visit, other then that, Silent Hill 4 is a completely new format of game.
That doesn't make the game any less enjoyable, in fact the changes bring a new breath of life into a long line of series, Silent Hill 4 is one of the Silent Hill series i play, over and over again, just because it is so much fun to kill creatures!
The music is also very heart wrenching, and certainly the most emotional of the series.
I would recommend any Silent Hill fan to play Silent Hill 4, it's yet another success story for the Silent Hill series, personally, this reviewer can't wait to see what they are going to do with Silent Hill 5.
I'm hoping they make a Silent Hill Prequal, because a few questions need to be answered from Silent Hill 1, that wasn't answered in Silent Hill 3.
A game based on the very beginning of Silent Hill and it's cult, would be fantastic and would certainly end the game in my heart on a positive note.
Enjoy playing Silent Hill 3 Dech, i'm sure you will love it, watch out for the hospital, there is a room in there with a gigantic mirror, and if you stare at your reflection for too long, the image of yourself on the other end will start bleeding all over, and the room will lock.
And eventually the walls of the room will start bleeding all over and scare the shit out of you
They pretty much don't like Eternal Darknes SR because of that. I have to admit, I got quite scared in a certain scene, enought to drop the control
