You could play any Silent Hill (other than 3, really) and the storylines would make perfect sense because they have no major connections to eachother other than the concept of Silent Hill. Except 3, that is heavily related to 1.
Oh, they're all related to each other greatly. They each expand on the TOWN of Silent Hill which is what the games are about, not the characters within the town.

Although I don't know why you brought this up in a Resident Evil thread.
