I think you should read the amazing review on this website... it says exactly what I thought after playing the game, and well... something more actually.

Truthfully SH3 is one of the best games i've played in a awhile. I'm such a vivid fan of the series and I'm so glad Konami decided to continue and finish the story from the first game. SH3 in my opinion is also the scariest of the series so far. Definately a must have.

Silent Hill 3 is far from being the scariest game of the series IMO. It's clearly done in a hurry, in fact characters have not the depth of the ones of the preceding games, and the story is pretty boring and not much developed for most of the game. Plus, I never, and I mean never, felt uncomfortable or scared playing it, while I was terrified both by SH and SH2. It's the weakest game of the series, but I think if you're a fan you definitely must get this one too.

Edit: Also on my opinion this was the less scary game of the series. I never came close to feel the fear I had playing the first Silent Hill and some moments of Silent Hill 2. Like Harry said, "disgust" was the theme here. |
i like this game the best of all..it's like a sense of closure to the first game which was my favorite. It seemed like a fan service title though, i mean the soundtrack thrown in the package, plus if you hadn't played any of the previous games SH3 would probably seem real shallow.

Thanks for the kind words :)

I think the "shallowness" and loss of depth people speak of is actually possibly not a mistake. The depth you find is in the hidden messages to be found from the disgusting imagery and why she interprets these things in this way. I'm hoping more answers will come as I go along. I haven't gotten that far really. I've been busy. Is this the story about a girl who is discovering her own personality's depth all of a sudden? Something that is seemingly so rare? I think this happens to a lot of people when they hit adolescense who haven't already. I have a theory too:
Spoiler: show So far, I am quite impressed with the game. Truthfully, I did not expect this game to be able to top SH2 so I am less dissappointed than some and I am able to enjoy it for what it is. I have no doubt that a Silent Hill4 will be made at some point so there is that to look forward to for those who don't like this installment, but I feel this really is a masterpeice in its own right. _RED_ stuff |

The most interesting and courageous theme, as I wrote in the review, stands probably in the fact that the sense of disgust is, for the first time in a video game, connected to woman's sexuality. Like in the preceding installment, the experience is always seen through the eyes of main character; and it’s true that the game can also be seen as a “story about a girl who is discovering her own personality's depth all of a sudden”, or more generally as the story of an average consumer girl who is discovering for the first time true pain and suffering. This said, for me it’s evident the developers didn't have the time to create a tissue as cohesive as in the previous game, and it's even more evident that the game lacks too often a solid direction to successfully portray its themes. It’s also difficult not to see how, for the first time in the series, the game really inherits something from Resident Evil (and in the many interviews, the new director didn’t deny the fact he wanted to put more pure action, like we see in American horror B-movies), without being able to be as well balanced (gameplay-wise) as Capcom’s games; the preceding Silent Hill games were a fierce opposition to Capcom’s way of intending the genre. |
Actually with all that said...I think it is possible I may be in a little bit of denial about the game not being as good as the previous installments, but I must say it is still an incredibly masterful game in many ways. That is how I feel.
