The Top 7... Damsels You DON'T Want to Save

PS2 News | Silent Hill 2

You know the formula. A pure-hearted beauty falls into the evil grasp of some snarling, spitting, mustache-twirling megalomaniac. A noble hero, driven by honor, courage and - let's face it - hormones, rushes to her aid. A brief kiss ensues and, before you can say sequel, the hapless lady has stumbled into imminent danger all over again. Tale as old as time... classic "damsel in distress." Except sometimes, the damsel isn't worth the damn trouble. ...

The Top 7... Rockin' intros

PS2 News | Silent Hill 3

If there's one thing that can get you pumped to play a game, it's a rockin' intro. Even in this age of overblown cinematics and increasingly elaborate plots spiraling into gaming oblivion, there's something about a few guitar licks and a hint of action that get the gamer juices flowing. Ever since consoles started kicking out high quality music and graphics in the early 90s, we've been addicted to the art of the intro. 7. Ys: The Ark of Napishtim (PlayStation 2, 2005) When this game hit the ...

Silent Hill 2 Film Is Official

PS2 News from N4G | Silent Hill: Origins

PS2 - Silent Hill: Origins - Silent Hill 2 Film Is Official

Screenwriter Roger Avary and producer Samuel Hadida are going back to the haunted town of Silent Hill. Both have now signed on to pen the 2nd film based on the cult classic Silent Hill series. After lukewarm reviews of the first film and fan outrage at the deviation from source material, we can only hope Avary and Hadida will take some more time with this one. We believe it can be done, but it just needs the right dedication and research. The 2nd film will be moving from paper to reel after the release of Resident Evil: Afterlife. We hope to see more psychological fear and less Pyramid Head booty.

HellDescent writes: " Gamestop is listing the next installment in the Silent Hill series as a November 3rd release. Yes, delays usually suck but they're always for the better.

No, it is not the Shattered Memories OST but a compilation of 18 different tracks in the series. Lame, we know. "
