Konami's latest sales data for the entire series.
I really do wish that Konami would do something like Capcom's "Platinium games" where they list all their best selling games that sold over 1 million.

>I aint gonna lie, I played Silent Hill 2 for about five minutes back in the day, laughed at the shitty animation of him swinging the pipe, and called the game gay.
Don't worry, my friends did almost the exact same thing.

This is correct. I think SH2 was really the wrong game to start the PS2 era with, and they should have done something more similar to 1 and impress people. Sh2 should have been a sidestory without a number released afterwards. It's a slow arsty game, and more akin to Ico than the original SH1.

>Silent Hill 2 remake was literally the top 2 best selling silent Hill game
Unlikely honestly considering how Konami has not fully disclosed individual sales and only the first two games sold over >400k on the biggest console platforms of their time

>the game didn't sell as well as SH1
We don't actually know that. All we know is that the sales in Japan were slower than of the first game per Ito himself and that it sold 1 million copies on PS2 alone in just the first month which is not accounting for the sales on PC or Xbox, the latter of which sold well enough to become a Platinum Hits re-release 2 years later.
Also keep in mind that Konami never published sales for SH1 either, those numbers came from Sato's online resume. We know that SH3 and SH4 sold less than 400K on both PS2 and Xbox because they never got Greatest Hits or Platinum Hits re-releases on either platform and SH3 was never ported to Xbox to begin with.
According to Konami's own website, the Silent Hill series has sold a combined total of 11.5 million since the first game. From the official and unofficial published sales numbers for individual titles that gives us only 5.3 million. That's a lot of unaccounted for sales still missing and most of them can probably safely be assumed to belong primarily to the first two titles.
