The guy is great. Silent Hill 2 and 3 are the best video game soundtracks ever made.

Agreed. Sounds like his music might be in the new Silent Hill movie, from the sound of the previews.

Yeah I read about that. Do you know if it will be new music? To me his music went way downhill after Silent Hill 4 although he still has a fair few gems from the rest.

I think 3 gets the slight edge for me. But Silent Hill 2 is by far the best game of the series.

Meh, it has potential but from the bits I heard on YT it doesn`t go anywhere interesting. Not even close to the best of AY.

I'd put it above SH4.
