My favorite Videogame

 

 

For this free themed blog, I would like to tell you about my favorite videogame franchise which is called Silent Hill.

Silent Hill is an horror game, the first delivery was in 1999 for PlayStation 1, the first time I got the chance for playing it was when I was about 7 years old, my sister’s  ex-boyfriend used to lend me his console and games, and they told me specifically that I could not play that game because it was for “grown up” only, which made me took the determination for playing it once I was alone. I put the game on the PS1 and that was one of the firsts times I was truly afraid, I did not play it for more than a few minutes and it was enough for not wanting to play it anytime soon.

This was the scene that made me stop playing it.

I forgot about this franchise until I turned 12, for Christmas I got a hacked-PlayStation 2, so with time I got many pirated games, among them Silent Hill 2, 3, 4 and Origins. I played all of them (most of the time using internet guides, they were too difficult for 12 years old me), I loved feeling terrified for these games, and soon I was joining forums of the game, sharing theories, and chatting with other fans of the franchise.

Nowadays I am still a huge fan of the franchise, sadly the Silent Hill develop team was removed years ago, and the person who wanted to keep up with the franchise – Hideo Kojima – leaved the company, so Silent Hill will not have new games anymore. But that does not matter, because it is still an amazing franchise, with one of the best horror story ever told.
