At least, there is in my opinion. It's why I'm hopeful every time a new one is announced, it's why I let myself feel hope when everyone is telling me that there's no point. Certainly, that hope is often dashed by what is the undeniable existence of the actual game, but initially there is always hope in me that maybe the new game won't suck.
Anyway, I also decided to just make an entire post about Silent Hill to get this over with. I was watching a Let's Play of Origin recently, and it made me remember why it was such a disappointment, how that disappointment led into subsequent games, and the upsetting fact that they didn't have to be disappointments, it's just that people who are making the new SH games have little understanding of what made the originals so good (and it's not little set pieces of Pyramid Head and Pyramid Head knockoffs walking around and doing a little dance let me tell you that much right now).
Goddamn there are a lot of spoilers under the cut for all manner of Silent Hill games. This is a warning and a divestment of my responsibility.
