Welcome to Silent Hill
Even death is no longer an issue.
Silent Hill ? What is it ?
Silent Hill is a video game like survival horror developed by Konami Tokyo CE and published by Konami for the PlayStation in 1999. It is renowned for having revolutionized the horror game by his psychological approach to fear. It marks the beginning of a long series of games which continued until 2012.
In 2006, the film adaptation was performed, by Christophe Gans. Although many elements were taken a little every Silent Hill, the main frame follows the story of the first Silent Hill, with Harry Mason and Cheryl.
In 2012, the following of this film was released, in 3D. It takes the frame of Silent Hill 3, with Heather Mason.
The arrival of Silent Hill marks a new approach to the genre. Until now, the survival horror was mainly represented by Resident Evil. While the latter is geared more to action and panic, Silent Hill brought a dimension more psychological that focuses on the emotions and psychoanalysis. The oppressive atmosphere relies heavily on staging and the scenario's esoteric aspirations.
Silent Hill, and more precisely
We begin with Harry Mason, a widower and father of Cheryl, little girl with black hair deep, discreet and reserved, he found that about 7 years ago, on the edge of a road to Silent Hill.
For the summer, Harry decides to take his daughter on vacation. She decides, against all odds, to go to Silent Hill, while he has never spoken of this city. At the entrance of the village, Harry's headlights illuminate a monster. He turns the wheel sharply, the shock is violent and loses consciousness... . When he awoke, Cheryl has disappeared.
Outside, A thick fog, crossed by large snowflakes, covers the city. He called Cheryl desperately, but his cry echoes in the city without any response. The town seems deserted. Where are the people ?
What's going on? And where is Cheryl?

What's going on? And where is Cheryl?
Harry will have to cross the city, and especially understand the secrets of this city, to find Cheryl. This is in the midst of a thick fog he will have to navigate fighting against monsters too human, more horrible than others, and to face to characters most frightening and crazy than ever, under sounds and sound effects paralyzing.
What I say:
Silent Hill, it's the game that changed my life. It may seem stupid, as it says, but now that I think about it, I could never live without having this game at least once.
This is THE ultimate Survival Horror!
This is THE ultimate Survival Horror!
Paradoxically, this game makes me freak out ! But that means that Akira Yamaoka did a good job!
And paradoxically, the "chapters" of Silent Hill that I prefer are the ones that scare me the most, that is those which appear Pyramid Head.

Because Pyramid Head haunts me even in my nightmares.
But again, it means that Konami has done a good job! And probably also because I'm a little mazo.
After all, to play psychological stressful games and love it, it must be a little crazy.
- Silent Hill, it is a psychological approach. People who have psychological problems should not play this game. I shouldn't play this game.
- Silent Hill, it's sudden and stressful noises.
- Silent Hill, they are sad melodies.
- Silent Hill, what is the tone of the first Wednesday of each month.
- Silent Hill, they are disturbing and ugly monsters.
- Silent Hill, it is a fetched stor.
- Silent Hill, it is full of chapters, all different and exciting.
- Silent Hill is Alessa. But too Pyramid Head, and nurses.
- Silent Hill, I am here every time I take the subway!
- Silent Hill, is a city in which we will never set foot.
Come on, let's go !
