Alright so basicly I just dled a PS emulator, a 64 emulator, silent hill, and resident evil 2.

My dilema is, what game should I play. I dont play much of anything besides SC but I think I would enjoy a game like this. So you guys, wich game do you think gives you more entertainment overall!

[image loading]

Poll: Wich game is better overall.
(Vote): Resident Evil 2 - N64
(Vote): Silent Hill - PSX

Silent Hill is a far better game than any of the RE games could ever dream to be. It's much scarier, too. The puzzles are much more difficult, and involved than they are in RE. Not so much running around looking for the pieces as it is trying to figure them out in many situations. For example, at one point, there is a broken piano, and from the text clues you have to figure out the "song" to play on it. It's a great game, one of my favorite all time games. It scared me so badly when I was a kid, too. I could NOT walk down a dark, empty school hallway for a couple years. Play Silent Hill.

Well, the RE games are all good, but Silent Hill just blows them away. The story is better, gameplay is about the same, and the puzzles are much more involved. Plus, it's a lot scarier. RE gave me a lot of good times, too. Play both if you have time, but start with SH.

OH maybee someone can finaly answer a question for me.. this is completely off topic, but im not sure if this is worth making a new thread for.

Does anyone know why I cant see anything past the first page on the forums? I can see a 1 in the top left of each topic, I would imagine that the paging system would fit right there. Yet I see nothing.

I know my browser has had a lot of f ups in the past, like on some websites I cant see the site links, like the Forum | Replays | Articles thing on TL.net. I couldnt see it on TL.net for a while either, now I can for some reason, wich is why I finaly registered after visiting the site for years, and never knowing how to sign up.

I dont think this is a very common problem, because when I asked on wgtour about a year ago, no one knew the answer.

Ehhh dono if i should make a new thread for this or not. I guess if I dont get an answer here ill just make a new thread =P

The page changer thing is actually at the bottom right (I think top right, too), not top left. For the general forum, if you're looking for old topics (not really recommended, stick to front page stuff most of the time if you can), that's in the top right. Yes, top right, and bottom right.

Silent Hill took my friend and I 11 hours to beat, total gameplay time + time we had it paused and were eating, etc, etc, etc. So really, only like... 7-8 hours of gameplay? SH4: The Room took me about six hours to beat. RE2 took only about 5 or so, but I could be remembering the wrong time that I beat the game.

dream-_- that's your javascript acting up... I knew how to fix it, but forgot

Beyonder told me how to fix it back then

edit : you can get to page 2 by adding "&currentpage=2" in the adress bar though (or any other page for that matter, currentpage=last works too )

Silent Hill > RE 2 for sure, HOWEVER Resident Evil 4 is without doubt one of the best games ever made, let alone the greatest of the survival horror genre.

Bah you suck Resident Evil 4 is to the other RE what war3 is to bw ....just to make a quick parallel because I think it's much worse in the case of RE4. It has ruined what was so special about the RE games and turned it into an average shooting game with nice graphics and a bad plot.

Can't understand how ppl like this game T_T I was SO dissapointed when I saw it.

Anyway Silent hill is indeed a great game but so is RE2, hard to choose. I'd still rather go for RE2 ( which totally outclasses the later RE )

RE4 was amazing, better camera angle's, bosses were easy but still a good game. Fighting through 20+ insane villagers armed with pitchforks, axes etc with only a knife is awesome.

Silent Hill was fucking scary when I was younger, me and a friend played it in pitch black when no one was in around 1am. Some of the sounds like windows smashing sound like they are coming from your own house, freaky. But I pretty much agree with what Sweetlemon said as to which is better.

kinda strange that most of ya say Silent Hill > RE... actually dunno why, but re was and will always be #1 horror survival game for me i dont know why, coz like some of ya already mentioned SH is way scarier and puzzles are harder to solve, but i think that this game lacks good characters re story also > sh story... well it's just my personal opinion so whatever ;}

I forgot which silent hill was it (I think it was 2) with the man and his dead wife. That fucking game gave me the creeps, beyond the level of any movie I have ever watched.

That said, both have genuine crap-in-your-pants moments, but I'd say SH games focus more on story and atmosphere while RE games have a better grasp on gameplay. Hard to choose sometimes >_<.

For survivor horror game i think RE 2 > all other RE's and SH's but still SH 2 is pure horror !!!
There is just something in RE 2 that keeps me playing it all the time, + some of the sound tracks of RE 2 just deserve OSCAR like the one in the hallway right after the sky tram trip and in mission B when ADA dies and LEON cries. Story wise - about RE a library can be written to cover every nook and cranny of the game. My advice is to play both, but if someone thinks that
RE 2 isnt worth the time he just does not know why people fear of the DARK !!!

They are both pretty different games. RE2 was more action/shock horror, while Silent Hill was more about ambience/psychological horror. I'd have to say I liked Silent Hill a fair amount more, it was a very unique experience. I loved RE2 as well, and it did help pioneer the survival horror genre, but shooting zombies had been done before, and while still loads of fun, wasn't that unique.

By the way, found this link on imdb, shows "the making of silent hill" with tons of scenes and cast/crew interviews, plus 2 seperate clips.

Don't take me wrong RE4 is not a "bad" game in itself, it's just not a RE, it's a pretty good shooting/action game. But when you read Resident Evil on it and you expect it to be one you're kinda pissed at what you see even if it looks nice.
