Can Silent Hill: The Short Message Save The Franchise?

Even though the Silent Hill series is in dire straits, Silent Hill: The Short Message could be poised to save it. Once upon a time, Silent Hill was the first and last name in survival horror. It had a series of hits in its early years: the creepily atmospheric original Silent Hill in 1999, followed by the captivating emotional journey of Silent Hill 2. Gameplay wise, the series began to stagnate a bit beginning with Silent Hill 3, but remained pretty consistent in its innovative horror narratives for several years to come.
