Silent Hill 4: The Room vs Until Dawn
Silent Hill 4: The Room
Silent Hill 4: The Room is the fourth and final installment of the main Silent Hill series (that is made by the original Silent Hill team). In this game, you play as Henry Townshend who found himself locked in his apartment that happened to be cursed by a malevolent evil. Due to this, strange stuff began to happen not only to him but also to the other residents in the apartment, teleporting him to a variety of different areas like a forest, a prison and even a hotel, and throwing tons of unimaginable creatures and the undead to stop his (and your) progress as he sought to escape from the hellish nightmare he seemed to be trapped in. However, as he overcame challenges after challenges, he may eventually find out the truth behind all of these.Silent Hill 4: The Room is an excellent end to a franchise that was so greatly loved by many. However, that's not the end though. The game has been picked up by another team and more Silent Hill may still be produced.
Until Dawn
Until Dawn is a story-rich and an intense horror-thriller game where you play as one of eight friends who are trapped in a remote mountain retreat and apparently, they are not alone. With fear gnawing at the edges of their very sanity, they will need to last the night until dawn (and salvation) arrives. Being story-driven, the game provides you with many dialogue choices to choose from, each of which has its own consequences and outcomes. Sometimes, that very outcome may mean life or death for a character. Not to mention, the game is complete with realistic graphics and an atmospheric (and perfectly creepy) music and sound effects that will keep you glued to the screen as you follow the storyline.Until Dawn is definitely not the sort of game for the weak-hearted. The horror element in the game can be pretty intense at times, but the storytelling from its pacing to the clincher is simply superb although, personally, I'm not a huge fan of scary stories. Until Dawn is available on Playstation consoles.
