Here you go:
http://www.giantbomb.com/silent-hill-homecoming/61-20636/this-game-is-really-fucking-good-haters-be-damned/35-17583/#29

Quick summary:
Silent Hill games have always had amazing atmosphere & story, but terrible controls, combat, & level design.

Homecoming totally has the good parts, and fixes the bad parts and makes them updated & relevant for 2008.  There's no reason for the game to play like a PS1 game just to please some very vocal minority.  It's a great game as a result of those changes.  As someone who's beaten all the SH games several times over, I couldn't be happier with what they've done here.

THIS GAME IS GREAT

THE ANSWER TO YOUR THREAD TITLE QUESTION IS YES!!!!!

Please see my thread in the SH:Homecoming board on Giant Bomb.  I go into great detail on why not only is it an excellent horror game AND an excellent Silent Hill game, but the improvements make it a great intro for newcomers as well.

The haters on this game are way too vocal.

EDIT


And again, you go back and edit all your posts after I respond because I don't hit quote.  It's disingenuous to the discussion at hand.  If any readers want to see what I'm actually responding to, you can go read his feed, and see the jarring difference in the knee-jerk responses and the post-edits.

I never said you did that directly by the way, but if you listed those titles in a debate like this then why couldn't I also list the reasons I don't NEED them and the good games I can have that aren't on other systems, to show I have more than enough to play as I am?

I also never asked for websites to cover shitty games, if you refer to the bias thread (why not keep the discussion there?) I specifically mentioned many, many promising titles, and not shitty ones, much like Monster Hunter 3, which now gets coverage thanks to TGS among other games I wanted to see covered previously so I guess some of it was just journalist ignorance... Besides, to keep this on topic, Unleashed certainly gets a lot of coverage and you say you think it too will be shitty. But hey, it's not a Wii exclusive so it deserves it, hur?"

I at no point said the Wii was devoid of good titles.  It's got plenty of them.  I was merely trying to illustrate how (unknowingly?) defensive you are of it.  If someone says a Wii game looks shitty, you claim it's bias against the Wii.  When websites don't report on those shitty games because they look shitty, you claim it's bias against the Wii.  When people who have grown weary of fucking terrible Sonic games don't get excited about another one, you claim it's bias against the Wii.  You need to give it a rest, man.

They're both going to be bad.  It's not a matter of bias, it's a matter of 3d sonic games having sucked for approximately 10 years.  Sega somehow manages to make 3d Sonic games look "kind of cool" in previews, and they always, without fail, suck profusely.

I wonder the same thing about everyone else who thinks it will be worse than Unleashed with no good reason, other than it's on Wii. It certainly can't be the sword because a sword that allows Sonic to still do the same old spin attack is certainly better than a stretchy arms werewolf."
Nobody wants to play Unleashed for the werewolf sections.  Come on, man.
