I really like Silent Hill, but that is just the stupidest name for a game.

It’s the name of a fictitious town in Maine, where things are deeply wrong. People who are subjected to the town end up accounting for their worst impulses via physical manifestations of terrible things. Interestingly enough, most of the time it’s incredibly bright in Silent Hill, easy to see the individually-exclusive monsters coming… were it not for the overwhelming fog with a character of its own.

They're probably referring to "f", not "Silent Hill"

At least according to Wikipedia, the "f" at the end is indeed part of the intended game name.
