Downpour for me. Better music in Homecoming, though.

Downpour far and away has the better story set up - but completely flubs it in favor of an overly gamified morality ending mechanic and a dull, artless world. I don't know how they were able to mess up using PRAGUE as a visual influence, a city that is ripe and ready for all sorts of incredible inspirartion - but Downpor's vision of Silent Hill is just so, so boring.

Homecoming feels more "faithful" (putting it VERY charitably) to the visual identity of the series but has probably the most downright stupid, contrived plot in the series.

So my vote goes for Shattered Memories. It has its faults to be sure, but it feels the closest in spirit to the Team Silent era to me.
