Does Silent Hill HD Collection come with game intros?

Post by predxeno »

Didn't Silent Hill 2 come with an intro of some sort when you started the game for PS3? I never saw it when I turned on the game for PS3. I installed the game on my PS3 overnight while I slept so I'd be able to play it in the morning. Did I miss anything? I know that Resistance 3 showed a little clip immediately after installation that it doesn't do anymore unless you go to the videos section.

SH2 has only ever had the one intro video before the title screen like SH1 did, but you have to wait a minute or two on the title screen. It is on the HD Collection version.

Oh good, so I didn't miss any secret vids or anything? Is this also how I get the SH3 intro? How do I choose which intro I want?

No, it's all there. The SH3 intro vid plays automatically upon starting the game. And there is only 1 intro vid in either game, so there is no choosing anything besides which game to play.

They all have it before the game menu. If you also wait at the Main Menu after about 10 seconds it will replay the intro.

The Silent Hill 2 intro took a while, but it eventually played.

Silent Hill 2 doesn't, only SH3's plays before the main menu. You have to wait on the main menu for a minute for SH2's intro to play.

the only good thing that came from the HD collection is that you can view the credits and see all the people's names who released this abomination...how can you release a "Collection" that doesnt include the original game (SH1)? or even (SH4)..they destoyed SH2 by eliminating almost all the fog..the new voices are garbage..in SH3 the characters talk and there's like a 2 second lag when their mouths actually move..no replay value whatsoever..how you manage to f*** games up that came out 10 years prior is really incredible..

It's the same for the original Silent Hill 2 on Playstation 2. I never saw the intro and I thought there wasn't any intro for this one. I didn't knew that I have to wait to see it.

One thing to keep in mind about the intro for SH2 (for those that never knew it existed):
The characters will be mute until you beat the game for the first time. Then, when you ckeck on the intro again, the sound will come out.

I guess it's to keep some mysteries around the game.

Ha that's pretty cool. I've only viewed it after I beat the game.
