Ahem...
Scariest/Creepiest/disturbingest/BEST
GAME EVER.
I swear to you Silent Hill is one of the best game series ever. Go pick up all 3 of them.
I can not explain how deep and interesting this game is. Its just I have this wierd fixation with it, like very obbsessive. I played through the 2nd one like 6 times to get all the endings. I have spent countless hours reading plot analaysis guids (some great ones at gamefaqs) I feel compeled to recomend it to anyone and everyone I meet. So do yourself a favor and play these games!
I was going to make this thread but seem you beat me too it! ; )
I have not played 3 yet, but 1 and 2 where great! just 2 weeks ago I went on a Silent hill 2 binge, beating the game over and over in under 2 and a Half hours, (dog ending is best! : )
why would u want a game that u can beat in only less than 2 & 1/2 hrs? sounds pretty easy to me--i like games that have a lot to offer--ya know? even though the game does seem kinda scary
the 2nd one has 6 endings. A normal perosn takes 6 hours to beat it on the 1st try. then say 3-4 hours for replays. So thats still about 26 hours. Not to mention its the only game I can actually play over and over and not get sick off.
As for the 3rd one there is 3 endings and a whole lot of unlockables. Its really worth it. (btw I hate 100+ hour games and would rather play a game that can be beaten quickly.)
I heard the first one pretty buggy and not too good. And the second was pretty good. I might rent the third one on your reccomendation Greg.
I tend to beat game's quick so I should be able to get one, if not two endings in a week.
And as far the storyline goes. Is it like RE with an ongoing story told though different people at different times but the same stuff is going on? Or is it just one person going through some conspiracy and all the games are about the same guy, instead of switching characters like RE?
The 3rd one is hevaily connected to the events that took place in the very first Silent Hill. the 2nd has nothing to do with the 1st or 3rd cept it takes place in the same F-ed up town.
Each game has different characters.
You can beat SH3 in a rental, and allthough short, its very very worth it.
I read about the first one in a Gamepro. Aren't you looking for your daughter in a town where you car broke down or something?
yeah but alot of other stuff happens... wierd things spoilers::
;
Like a cult!
Is SH3 just another story in the book, OR is this it?? Do they finally hint as to what happend to the town?
The only thing that's always bothered me about the Silent Hill series is all those weird ass monsters.
I think they could've done a good bit better on most of them, but some are cool.
I don't want to hear it. 😞 The game is sitting on my shelf still wrapped up because I no freakin way to play it. :cry:
Grasshopper:
Play it, theres only 2 things in it that actualy make u jump. and they are both lame afterwards. its not like nightmare scary, just playing it creeps you out a bit.
And SH3 ties up all of SH1's loose ends.
I think he means that his ps2 is not with him at the moment.
Oops, I left out a word. Yes, I posted a while back about that. I can't wait though.
If I get it at all, I'll probably be waiting for the PC version.
Whoa, a PC Version is coming out? I thought it was a PS2 exclusive.
Yup. Found a press release in Konami's Press Room. Apparently it'll be on a DVD too, which is quite unusual for PC games at this time.
The press room is hiding over at http://www.konami.com/usa/releases.shtml and the press release with the SH3 PC info is dated 4-30-03 (you'll have to scroll down a bit).
Grr, now that just beats all. I was going to get both versions for the heck of it. Since I have te PC version of Silent Hill 2. But I don't have a DVD-rom in my computer. 😞 I'm stuck with the lesser of the two.
DVD drives aren't all that expensive these days, I think. You could probably find one relatively cheap 😊.
Well, I suppose if I'm willing to get a new processor and Gfx card for Doom III then I sure I'd probably buy a cheap drive for SH3
