I played the original Silent Hill and it just wasn't my type of game. I liked the original Resident Evil games because they were somewhat grounded. The puzzles, letters, music... the fact that you were slowly uncovering some huge corporate (and later family) conspiracy... it was just so intriguing. Silent Hill just felt like a someone's nightmare or a bad acid trip. It was more one dimensional.

Eh, I disagree that Silent Hill was more one-dimensional mainly due to the constant feeling of things changing at every second. Once you learn of the story, you start to grasp that nothing is what it seems. 

For me, it did horror much better than Resident Evil.

Resident Evil was a horror, survival, action, mystery and puzzle game in one. It also had a rich backstory that you slowly uncovered as you went along via photos, movie slides and letters etc. It just had way more depth than Silent Hill.
