Silent Hill became one of the standards for horror in games, and titles to this day still get compared to the series.
Released in early 1999 by Team Silent under the Konami umbrella, Silent Hill was their answer to Resident Evil but became so much more. With a focus on psychological horror and atmosphere, Silent Hill stood out from the number of Resident Evil clones at the time and forged its own legacy.

As a series, Silent Hill became one of the giants of the survival horror genre, with titles to this day still getting compared to Silent Hill. Not only did it have a major impact on the survival horror genre, but the industry as a whole.
From its technical wizardry for a PS1 title, incredible atmosphere, and sound design, quality exploration and puzzles, memorable characters, and an ambiguous plot that leaves many things up to interpretation, the first entry of the Silent Hill series is an incredible achievement for how much they got right off their first attempt. Silent HIll would only get better from here.
Silent HIll is a series I've been meaning to tackle for a while now, or at least the Team Silent entries, the first four titles. So let's take it back to the start, and take a look at the PlayStation 1 1999 release of Silent Hill.
This Silent Hill review/analysis/critique/retrospective looks at how the game was made, what makes it work, digging into the plot, and more.
