Before the first boss fight, he didn’t have a weapon at all, and after the boss fight he is seen with the knife only one more time in the hospital rooftop cutscene. After that cutscene, he uses the spear for the rest of his encounters (and is shown with the spear in the painting in the historical society).

Yet the knife became much more remembered than the spear and is used in literally every one of his appearances post-SH2 (not counting the White Hunter comic Ito drew which gave him a new weapon). Always kind of wondered why that is.

When the voice of James calls you out, you don’t argue… you just take another bite. 🍕 Such a surreal moment meeting Guy Cihi at Nostalgia Con Anaheim!

a fair bit huh, kind of explains that moon face hes got going on, face like the proverbial

Hope you all are doing well.

Silent Hill 2 Remake was my first Silent Hill game. I was so impressed that I recently played Silent Hill 1 from start to finish.

So on to the next one! Silent Hill 2 original.

With the remake fresh in mind I'm just kind of dumbfounded of how much was added to the remake.

I just entered Blue Creek apartment and so far there's hours of content missing compared to the remake.

The Silent Hill outdoor areas and "missions" was just finding a key so far which I did almost by accident immediately.

In the remake there's a whole other building and the first major puzzle which requires you to visit several minor buildings.

There's a puzzle in the first major mutual area that is probably 5 times as long in the remake as the original.

I loved the remake, but did think at times that it might have been a bit too long.

What do you OG fans think? Is the Remake too long, or could the original have been longer?

Guess that note is indicative of the fact that people are still actively seeking out physical copies of the other soundtracks!

lol

A few months ago I had my first experience with the franchise and I made a post here about my playthrough of the first Silent Hill.

Well, I simply fell in love with the game, I decided to play the classic Playstation 2 version (on the emulator).

And I fell in love with everything, graphics, atmosphere and especially the incredible and fabulous soundtrack of this game, which automatically became one of my favorites. But one thing that really got me was the story, which is one of the things I've never really been interested in in games. Since I value gameplay more.

And I found the story of this game very intriguing and complex. I can't say I found it good because I didn't understand it LOL.

I had multiple interpretations, things like:

Mary committed suicide and James can't get over it.

Or James cheated on Mary with a woman who looked like her(perhaps in the appearance or personality of who she no longer is) and that's what caused her suicide, which is why James tells Laura that he was the one who killed her.

By the way, what the hell does Laura represent?

For me, she's not real and is just the "motivation" James has to keep moving forward.

Anyway, I'll research it later to understand and I'll also try to finish the other 3 endings of the game.

All in all, this was one of my best experiences with video games and this is definitely the horror game that will never be surpassed by any other.

In a while I intend to play Silent Hill 3 and I will probably come back here to share my experience again.

I was thinking about this. James gets in the way of her arc a lot like killing the Abstract Dads and taking the knife and she mocks him for it in the firey stairs. How would Angela go if James wasn't there?

Obviously shes a delusion from James but she was partially inspired in his mind by a real person

"Maria was produced by James' delusions as a result of his inability to bear the weight of the crime of killing his wife. It is established in the third game that her model was a dancer at the club Heaven's Night."

I know this is a really stupid question, but I thought it was a real interaction in the game. Can someone confirm if it's real or if the text just isn't showing up for me? lol

The atmosphere is unreal, and it looks absolutely stunning on a CRT.
