Akria Crusnik Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Silent Hill is just twisted in all it's sense and Resident Evil is just getting too bland with its gameplay V_V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayl Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 I think both have really lost sight about what originally made both so great. Resident Evil has suffered the worst of it though, despite Capcom's promises to return the series to it's "survival horror" roots, i'm not entirely convinced they know what survival horror actually entails anymore. Now as for what i prefer, i prefer Silent Hill as a story driven experience, it's usually more interesting to see things unfold because of the way SH chooses to tell it's story while leaving the player enough room for personal interpretations. From a gameplay standpoint i think i'd rather play RE2/3/4 again rather then SH2/3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autolycus Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 The remake of RE1 for gamecube was aftzing. After resident evil 3 the seriese turned away from what made it good. I've played Silent hill 1 &2 (the rest are on my list of games to play) and they were both great, though i hear they also have deviated from what made them great. As for the movies, Silent Hill was great and Resident Evil 1 was great, after that the resident evil movies went way down in quality.

rednauj Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 I'd prefer Resident Evil games until the Gears of Wars/Call of Duty Syndrome... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bleargh Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Resident Evil is kinda action/survival, but yeah Silent Hill is more survival and damn the puzzles can be a pain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSlamm Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 I like all the Resident Evil games up to Resident Evil 4 but none after that. I have never completed a Silent Hill game so I guess i'd have to say Resident Evil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiraDeath Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 This is a tough one.. I like both, a lot. But if I had to choose one I would say Resident Evil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
†LimitLess Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Played resident evil 1-4 and silent hill. Silent is more scary but resident evil is better, especially resident evil 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrumRoll Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 played resi 4/5 and revelations and loved all of them. I think the whacky characters are what make it great. GREETINGS STRANGER! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick1109 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Just look at my Avatar and take a guess? LOL Resident Evil is one of the BEST game series ever made! 1-3 follow the traditional story, and the rest are really like totally different games with returning characters mixed in. They are all still great, and RE4 had some of the best controls of any game ever. I played the first silent hill and never played another. The games skip over scary and jump strait to strange and demented in my opinion.

reizerozero Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 I much prefer the original Resident Evils, with the gamecube Remake of RE1 being my fave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimasta Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) If we're discussing the current state of the series silent hill is winning the last 2 resident evils were just half ass shooters part 6 was the worst its strayed too far from survival horror, the last couple silent hills weren't great either but they haven't sold out yet. Still though resident evil 4 is miles beyond the best silent hill game, i liked the gamecube remake of the first game also but i know some who didnt.

Shatterheartiel Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Well, both have suffered tremendously as they've gotten older. The Resident Evil series has ceased to be a survival horror series and instead focused on pathetically predictable jump scares and sub-par action-style gameplay, and the Silent Hill series has adopted Resi's former curse of gimmicky controls and plodding, often tedious narrative. Neither have produced a proper instalment in their respective franchise since the PS2 generation, and with this focus on style over substance that is plaguing the industry, that doesn't look like it's going to change anytime soon. Which is a shame, because both were fantastic series back in the day. That said, between the two, I'd go for Silent Hill, if only because the earlier games scared me significantly more than Resi did. The original Silent Hill still gets me from time to time. Resi 4 was a good game, but it just wasn't Resi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanis Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) RE turned into a third person shooter.SH turned into an action game. Edited March 2, 2014 by Tanis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadclown Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Silent Hill is definitely better at instilling horror (I've always felt that even the early RE games were trending towards action). However, I just love RE's dumb story to bits and I have more personal history with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
