As you (Silent Hill fans, I mean) should know, there are 2 Silent Hill games (distinct games, not ports) after Silent Hill 4 The Room that were not developed by Team Silent, one of them being Silent Hill Origins, or Silent Hill Zero in Japan, for PSP, and the other being Silent Hill 5, now called Silent Hill Homecoming for next gen. consoles (PS3/360).
Both do not look impressive nor do they make me feel like Silent Hill, I have bought the PSP Origins and think it is not quite the Silent Hill that I wanted, I am not sure if I will buy Homecoming from the screens and arts that I’ve viewed.
My coverage on Silent Hill will probably stay as is for the time being (it had stayed as is for a while already), unless there is another installment or another franchise by Team Silent.
To me, the pinnacle of the series is Silent Hill 2, I love it the most, but the entry that introduced me to the Silent Hill world is Silent Hill 3.

I agree with you Maskrider, the Silent Hill series has really affected me, 2 most of all, and I feel that now that the series is continuing on without the original makers, it’s just not the same thing.
I bought and played through Origins, the PS2 port, and though there was nothing overtly “wrong” about the game, storywise it didn’t feel necessary, and I don’t think it added much to the series as a whole. Also it just didn’t have that special, indescernible quality that’s uniqe to the other games.
Also, thanks for your incredible Silent Hill galleries, they’ve been a real joy to peruse.
Take care!
Thank you. It has been a joy to share with other Silent Hill fans.
