If your into horror games, try this game called "Fatal Frame". Remember to shut the lights while playing it. That will increase the suspense.....:no:

Oh yeah I own silent hill for psx but the farthest I have been into it is like 30mins its pretty good so far and for the resident evil series well I think I might have to leave thos out of the picture after the new generation games I cant go back to my psx games nor n64 games but I will try to finish silent hill. I am thinking about getting the other 2 in the series and if resident evil online comes out soon I will get that for the action.
But everyone seems to favor resident evil series more so I might go and buy the first resident evil for psx and probally resident evil code veronica for ps2 I will just buy both series I guess and than decide which is better.
Thanks for your opinions:)

imo Resident Evil 1 is the best in the RE series.
Deadlus

imo, Code Veronica is the best of all. Story, graphics, and you get to play a chick.

ok I think I am going to get resident evil code veronica for ps2 but how does it compare to the others in the series is it the best a good one but not the best or just horrible to the series? or if I am new to the series would this be a good game to start out with?

I have only played Silent Hill 1, but I have played all of the Resident Evil games and watched the movie, so RE gets my vote :)

Compare to other Resident evils, code veronica has better graphics, you get to play 2 characters (just like RE2), great gameplay, creepy and action music makes this game one of the best, and the most important thing is in CR you can kill monsters with your knife much easier than the other games (when you run out of ammo, which it "will" happen to you). There are plenty of more positive points to this game but don't feel like typing too much. You can read more @ gamespot.com.

Its locked but I will try www.ign.com there reviews are good to.
EDIT: ign gave the game 6.5 even tho he made the game sound a little better than what he gave it. He also gave it that score like he said he is tired of the series but from what I have read I like.
The only thing that worrys me is the controls but I can get used to them like I have in everyother game with bad controls.
I have decided to go with mainly the resident evil series and I will try to play silent hill 1 till the end.
Thanks for your help guys:)

Get both if you can, it depends on what you like more, action and horror (RE)...or pure creepiness with a twist (SH). I wasn't impressed with Silent Hill's storyline, but that Pyramid Head in SH2!! :eek: *shivers* :eek: Lol. :D
