Well right now Resident Evil is better since Silent Hill is dead.

im a big silent hill fan but resident evil is easily better right now

Silent Hill 1,2,3 and arguably 4 are great. Everything that follows is garbage and the franchise is stuck with the corporate husk that is modern, (pachinko machine manufacturer) Konami that is devoid of any talent.

Resident Evil 1/REmake, 2, 3, CV and 4 are classics. There have been missteps with 5, 6 and spin offs but 7 is a return to form.

That said, comparing Resident Evil and Silent Hill is like apples to oranges in terms of survival horror. Resident Evil is more b-movie action with an emphasis on straight up chills and body horror. Whereas Silent Hill is more psychological, abstract horror.

Resident Evil = Romero movies, Aliens or Cronenberg movies

Silent Hill = David Lynch's output or Jacob's Ladder

Both are great though...

resident evil...they manage to resurrect from the ashes

silent hill...got put down like a rabbid dog
not a hard choice

SH went out on a meh game. Shit really.
RE is getting raped with No zombies zombie games and now FPS eurobeat driftking boss.

So I guess RE is a bit more entertaining atleast in it's shittyness.

Both very different games.

Resident Evil. Only the first 3 SH games are particularly necessary, the rest is window dressing. Dem first 3 games, though. RE has its highs and lows but it has more than 3 good games.

Better question is, Raccoon City or Silent Hill? Which place is more dangerous and has the least chances of survival.

>resurrect from the ashes

SH1/3 Silent Hill > Raccoon City > SH2 Silent Hill

SH2 is more depressing than threatening.

Both are different, but I always liked RE more.

Sorry, but survival horror with a tinge of B movie writing and more action / colorful environments is just more fun than pure horror like Silent Hill is, with relatively unfun combat and non stop dreary and colorless repetitive looking locations you're moving through.

Plus, I only really liked Silent Hill 1 and 2. 3 wasn't bad but I wouldn't say I was crazy about it. Meanwhile, I enjoy RE games to this day.

Ive only played Silent Hill 1 so I'll only consider RE1 vs SH1.

I probably think RE1 is more fun to play, but SH1 is a lot more unnerving and open. Better themes, story, characters

HAHA! Simply ebin, that's a great reference guys. You've outdone yourselves.

I really don't know how anyone can defend that buggy hot garbage game though. Seriously.

amazing isnt?

papa Jack is already in RE hall of fame along with Jill Sandwich,Chris ´´Boulderbreacker`` Redfield and Albert ``Global Saturation`` Wesker and Leon ´´Smalltime``Kennedy

One is story focused and one is gameplay focused, just depends on what you care about more.

so he's not suppose to drive the car in the garage like that? Whats supposed to happen/

Capcom was suppose to make a Resident Evil game. They got lost along the way.

How so?

There's an awful lot of deflection in these threads with this footage. This small part, with no context is goofy, sure but that said far sillier things have happened in Resident Evil...

Please enlighten us as to what part of the gameplay is "hot garbage"?

oh ok

Resident Evil.

Both are better

inb4 "It's an Outlast clone"

I like them for wildly different reasons, it feels like comparing apples to oranges.

Jack the Drifter

kek thats the spirit!

There's a ton of unpolished shit in the game. The Beretta has next too no animation when fired.

Watch streams

I haven't finished it but I'm at the boat bit and honestly, it feels kind of like a more horror-oriented Revelations. The molded are a lot like the ooze, psychostimulants are kind of like scanning, resource distribution mirrors that game, and the Queen Zenobia had classic RE stage design but was sequenced out by chapters which killed the illusion, a pitfall 7 avoids. The rest is 7 calling back on classic RE in the ways Revelations already did, save for RE3 callbacks like the Nemesis-like presence of the Bakers and bullet crafting, and of course the first person viewpoint.
