My favorite Silent Hill game is SH2, but my favourite OST is SH3. What about yours?
Silent Hill
Silent Hill is a survival horror game franchise that revolves around the tourist town of Silent Hill; its dark link with the occult and its co-existence with its two other-dimensional forms, "Otherworld" and "Nowhere".
What's your favorite Silent Hill soundtrack?
It comes down to a tough tie between SH2 and SH3. SH2 has a lot of more variety I think, though SH3 has the mothershittin' 'You're Not Here' <3 Plus there's a lot more of Mary Elizabeth's haunting vocals and melodies across SH3's soundtrack as well, which is always a plus. SH4 and Homecoming still have some solid tracks in there as well, and 'Room of Angels' easily ranks as one of my favourites across the entire franchise. I suppose I'm more inclined to vote for SH3 if I had to, though SH2 is practically up SH3's ass it's such a close second.
EDIT: I still haven't played Origins or Shattered memories, either, so they never factored towardsm y vote.
I'd say Silent Hill 2 struck the right balance between industrial noises and actual music. I resent Silent Hill 3 for a lot of things, and the introduction of vocals is one of them.
lol d only one i ever play is homecoming so i guess that one. it not seem like such gud game tho :/ which one is the best one and ill give it a try!
SH3 has the best monstery sounds, but the soundtrack (as released) itself is pretty garbage. I want 5 minute tracks that explore the entire soundscape of each track, it's full of incidental 2 minute sequences. SH2's soundtrack kind of has the same problem, though not to such a degree. I really like the Shattered Memories soundtrack for being mostly 3-4 minute tracks, though I wish they would show you the dynamics every track is designed with.
Best track is still Macabre, from the first 5-10 minutes of the
Dude, I realize few ever played SH4, but just listen to "room of angel" off that soundtrack. Lyrically, one of the best game tracks ever.
Here's a lullaby to close your eyes/ It was always you that I despised/ I don't feel enough for you to cry/ So here's a lullaby to close your eyes, goodbye
