Ah yes, Silent Hill. I remember going out to buy the game the first day it was released for the Playstation. I immediately came home and played the hell outta that thing; eventually forcing myself to take a break after my thumbs were too numb and my brain be racked after all the puzzles. I loved the game, and it wasn't until years later that I played the second and third on the PC. I tried out the fourth game, which I didn't like and chose not to finish, but it didn't really follow the Silent Hill storyline anyway.

After the release of Resident Evil, my friends and I thought, why not Silent Hill? Finally, in 2006, our dreams were met, but were our expectations? In many ways, yes. I have to say that Silent Hill so far is the only game-to-film adaptation that truly followed the feel, look, and even sound of the game it's based on. I have to give props to the guys behind this, and the fact that they worked closely with those who developed the games.
