From what i gather as well 1-4 were all made and published by Konami, beyond 4 it keeps changing hands from developer to developer:
SH1: Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo
SH2: Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo
SH3: Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo
SH4: Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo
Origins: Climax Studios
Homecomming: Double Helix Games
Shattered Memories: Climax Studios
Downpour: Vatra Games
Book of Memories: WayForward Technologies
If you keep jumbleing a series around from dev to dev your never going to get a game that actualy feels like the old ones because none of the people who work on it actualy get to work on it for very long, compared to Konami who had created the idea, and worked on it for 4 games and had more than enough experience to keep it going, but for a reason unknown to me dumped it off onto US developers, and a japanese horror game being given to a US developer to work on means they have their own idea of horror.
In japan, horror is subtle and slow building and disturbing.
In america horror these days is a monster jumping out of a closet screaming BOO! 6 Times in a row throughout the movie "Some exceptions apply IE: The Paranormal Activity Movies"
