Dead Space. Silent Hills always disappoint lately, so I'm more willing to just try Dead Space this time around.

silent hill is scary but just wait for the games to come out and go to metacritic.com and check out the mass average reviews for both. but dead space looks cool. i think the gravity coming into play will be wicked cool.

Dead Space looks more interesting to me at this point. though, i will get Silent Hill also because i can't miss out on Pyramid Head.

So far, what I know of the new Silent Hill gives me pause: American devs, barely next-gen graphics, very little media available as it nears release. Dead Space doesn't appear to have the anticipation or pedigree that a new Silent Hill title brings by default, but it looks to do more interesting things with the genre. Some of the more recent videos I've seen show some tweaks still need to be made (bad clipping, jerky movements), but these seem to be minor issues which should be remedied before the game goes gold.

Iv'e always liked silent hill.I'm hoping for a condemned 3. What was that other one "Siren" or something? I'd go for dead space because it's something new. Silent hill will be the same old story. So will resievil. Doesn't mean it'll be a bad game just nothing new ye know?

Dead Space is the way to go. Silent Hill Homecoming received a 6.5 or something in OXM.

I am getting both to be honest. I want to get SH:homecoming because I have all the silent hill games and I love them all equally in there own ways.

Also dead space looks really really interesting as well. From reading and watching the first video of it last year and following it closely I think this could be a very, very good game.

Then in 09 is the latest in the Resident Evil series which is always my favorite survival horror game series ever

Since when did reviews matter for Silent Hill in the first place? It has always been the black sheep of the horror genre. Despite the low scores, it has continued to be one of the best survival horror games ever made. In terms of visceral horror it is the way to go. Dead Space just looks like a cheap System Shock 2. I recommend Silent HIll.

Both, Silent Hill is great and the only disapointment was 4 but if you know the series you know that 4 wasn't originally a SH and got turned into one midway through production. And Dead Space looks to be a pretty good mix of a lot of horror and sci-fi elements and its gonna be awesome to mess around with zero grav physics.

You should definitely get both.

You need to get Dead Space if you think you will like it, because we need to start new franchises or else we will end up with more tired sequels.

Aside from the atrocious comic book series, as well as Silent Hill 4, the Silent Hill series has always been of high quality, and despite introducing Nazi's into the game, and having the character be "an american war hero", I don't think it will suck nearly as bad as Silent Hill 4.

Im a silent hill fan totally... its more of a cult following anyway.

I dont care if the reviews go so-so, Im buying it anyway. It appeals to me, like every other one has

Silent Hill: Homecoming is for the fans of the series,

Silent Hill as a series has always had a sort of cult following, not really mainstream.

I thought the first Silent Hill games were boring after awhile and more creepy and odd than scary.

Dead Space looks like another Doom game to me...which is a major plus!
