But when I started playing the Silent Hill games, the terror was so much more psychological and subtle. They did fear better than Resident Evil, in my opinion.
Silent Hill definately did the fear factor better than Resident Evil and spooked me out seriously at the time. Resident Evil games though, have far more depth storywise and the playability was always superior.
