For anyone turned off by the narrators, its worth a mention that these guys at least really know their shit.
I consider the core Silent Hill games, 1-3, uppercase a "Art", in that everything is just as meticulously designed as any classic film or book. They're masterworks of interactive storytelling. If I was responsible for work of similar caliber, I'd hope to hell I had fans passionate enough to defend my creations the way these dudes do.
The one thing I will say is that I don't think Tomm deserves all the flak he gets. The dude clearly loves and appreciates Silent Hill, even if hes not as orthodox as the most die hard of fans. I seriously doubt hes the one greenlighting new Silent Hill games in the first place, so I don't know that theres not much he can do when the heart and soul of the series- Team Silent- no longer exists.
Best case scenario is they just put the series to rest and move on.
