Does anyone know if Alone in the Dark (PS3) is any good? Metacritic isn't really that helpful with one reviewer giving it a 95 and another giving it a 48..

I doubt anyone plays Silent Hill games for their realism, really.

i see taste is something not everyone is born with ;), seriously though that movie is more of a thinking movie, more of an interpretive movie, and obviously not everyone will understand it.  i like how you like seven.  to me that was very predictable, and cliche.  good set design and some fun parts.  but not exactly memorable.  i guess some people like movies where they lead you by the hand and explain everything, and some people like to think a bit more.

also seven was made by david fincher

lynch made twin peaks, blue velvet, and wild at heart

you not responding to anythign i said except correctingg your error proves my point.youre about

re as good at debating as you are at thinking for your self while you watch a movie.  im done replying to anything you write in this post or in any other post.  you slam an award winning filmmaker and have an icon and name based onbased on an ad campaign (or bad cartoon) not sure which.  so you know trying to be the film critic doesnt seem suitable for you.  but yeh anyway enjoy vgchartz.

i said id never reply, but im a break it cus i think you misunderstood my reasoning

silent hill 3 to me sure as shit makes no sense, same with mulholland drive really.

i dont like either for the story. its the mood and the feel that i find appealing.

i love wierd dreams for example, and that strange scary feeling you guget, the pure uncertainty. david lynch and silent hill can give me that.

i never said i was like you and your friends. im wierd, and i like wierd things. all im saying is sometimes things dont need a point or any coherence to accomplish what they set out to do.

not everyone is down with that sort of thing, but that doesnt make it bad.

to me resident evil is not as good as silent hill to me for example as the story is horribly cheesy, silent hill may not make sense, but at least they dont try to appeal to everyone on earth from 5 years old to 80 years old with a cheeseball story.

you and i have different tastes basically.

You have a point there. I've always thought that Silent Hill 1 and 3 are more like B-horror movies, while SH 2, 4 and SM lean more towards the psychological thriller. That's why I enjoy the latter more.

But the same could be said about Resident Evil games, being them B-horror movies, they're just better explained and they don't use paranormal things on their plots, they just use the "science gone wrong" theme, which could actually make more sense in the end.

@fazz

totally, res evil blows it with the story and the music

dives into b land. also voice acting.

but yeh only res evil i liked was 4, and thats cus it was a shooter

@rol, im back to never replying to you again after my short break :P

Nice, yeah I've been meaning to discuss this with you Pyramid Head.

Silent Hill Shattered Memories was a complete blindside for me, I was like Best games of the year Batman AA and NSMB Wii then I get to play Silent Hill to completion and I'm like O_O best horror game ever! It's made me seriously want to go out and collect the whole series and play them eventually.

I hear so many good things about Silent Hill 2 I was thinking they should definitely do a Shattered Memories version of 2 but change it to where you could be randomly brought into the frozen hell world or have something else make things tense every so often even when you're exploring. Like if there is anything to actually gripe about it's that its not that scary during those parts, but even then I was pretty tense cause I just really got into the game, but you know I feel there's always one thing someone could work on and that could make the next game damn near perfect.

@maxwell

glad you liked it! i totally agree that it surpassed what i was thinking game of the year all year.

sh 2 would be amazing to redo, but theyd almost have to keep the settings and scenes and music or it would lose a lot. its worth playing in its current form tho big time.
