I'm plenty serious. I enjoyed Homecoming a lot. Not as much as some of the original titles. But much more than any other mainstream horror games of its time. I think people are way too quick to dismiss the new Silent Hill games. It's a mindless bandwagon. So, I'm not necessarily saying it's as good as Amnesia, but find it worth mentioning.
As for Silent Hill 4. I think it's the best game in the series. It had a deep story and experimental gameplay that tied in with it perfectly. It had incredibly disturbing art. I find it to have a stronger impact than any other game in the series.
I enjoy Silent Hill 2 a lot, and do think it's brilliant. But at the same time I find it to be overrated. I think the series has already outdone itself once after that title and there is no reason to use it as a comparison point.
