Yes.

I love Silent Hill. I have only ever played (and never beaten) 1 and 2. I know alot of the story from the 3rd and 4th due to accidental spoilers, and then later thinking : "Hey, I already know (SPOILER)Alessa transmigrated into Heather, why not read about how (SPOILER)James actually killed Mary!!"

So yeah, I know a bit more than I'd like to about the games I haven't beaten, but hey.

My favourite characters are Angela and Heather, I've never played SH3 but I like it the best just based on the music and monsters alone :P
