I totally digg the Resident Evil movies, I think those are awesome.. but the games.. No, not my thing. Silent Hill and Resident Evil are both too boring for my likings.

I do like Cold Fear a lot which is definitely in the same genre, but I think it's the setting of both Silent Hill and Resident Evil that turn me off or something. I also really liked Nocturne's atmosphere. Don't know if many people have played that game,

Yes, they are crap, but in a good way.

Definately , the RE movies are a pile of turds , NOTHING compared to the game. It's as if the movies arent really based on the game other than for the story part , the whole feel of the movies is nothing like the game , the movies would be decent if they would have been called pale zombies or some [censored] , but not resident evil. Now , if ur not a fan of the game , i can understand liking them , but me as a fan of the game , i hated them , and I would assume that a movie based on a game should really aim to please the game's fans rather than strangers. So , bad movies , good games . Btw , for the ones who find them boring , both resident evil and silent hill , they arent action games , they are survival horror with adventure and rpg elements , so they are definately slow paced games , but if you have the patience to start looking for clues of whats happeninng and trying to figure out things , you will find yourself experiencing a whole new type of gaming experience , where your literally in a horror movie , exept here your controlling the protagonist , and exploring the plot and places and monsters fist hand, rather than just watching everything happen on the screen. Both RE and SH are beautifull games , both some of my all time favorite series. For the ones who like Fatal Frame , now there's the boring one , how on earth is a game where you fight ghosts from beyond with a camera by taking pictures of them popular I will never understand , LOL , horrible horrible gameplay design.

Does anyone know Penumbra?
I think it is more scaring than FEAR or silent hill....

EDIT:
(here u can get the demo http://www.penumbra-overture.com/demo.php)

I really like Penumbra. I wasn't all that impressed by it's scariness, but it does a good job trying and is an interesting experience nonetheless. I think FEAR had it's scary moments, but that tended to 'wear of' rather quickly ( the girl ghost that appears and disappears was very nice),
