Re: Downpour Easter Eggs (spoilers within)
I just noticed that the two boats by the docks in the Port District have names. DJ Ricks' boat is named "Emma" (for whatever reason), while the other boat's name is "Angela's Fire".
Pretty sure it's safe to assume that it's an SH2 reference.
Not sure about "Emma" though...

Re: Downpour Easter Eggs (spoilers within)
This isn't really an easter egg, its more of an odd little detail I noticed on my current play through. In the Devil's Pit diner, look on the wall next to where you pick up the map. There will be a board with the daily specials on it, and it says:
Monday - meat
Tuesday - meat
Wednesday - meat
Thursday - meat
Friday - boiled meat
Saturday - rain
Sunday - fog
Monday - meat
Tuesday - meat
Wednesday - meat
Thursday - meat
Friday - boiled meat
Saturday - rain
Sunday - fog

^ That's pretty cool! I wonder if he says anything at the end of other songs in different spots of the game.
SAIRENT HIRU no uta minna de utaou!
Re: Downpour Easter Eggs (spoilers within)
I've actually gone back and checked the radio parts that I know are in the game after finding out that the Pete's Bowling one happens. There are certain ones where he does say more, but they're mostly him begging for help and saying he doesn't have much time left at the end of the song.Esperandote wrote:^ That's pretty cool!

Re: Downpour Easter Eggs (spoilers within)
My girlfriend recently brought to my attention that the TV in JP's room, after you turn the dial a couple times (but just before the same TV explodes), you hear a voice reciting the following verse:
For the literary savvy types, this is actually a verse from The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. In which some might remember an even more familiar line:Alone, alone, all, all alone,
Alone on a wide wide sea!
And never a saint took pity on
My soul in agony.
Reading the whole thing, I am starting to think this poem was a significant inspiration for Downpour.Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

Re: Downpour Easter Eggs (spoilers within)
Or there are simply people that remember reading it in high school? Ancient Mariner is a regularly referenced piece of literature in all types of media/art.dias17se wrote:Looks more bathroom poetry to me , Tomm Hulett must have googled that.
Re: Downpour Easter Eggs (spoilers within)
I only vaguely remember ever reading it, but definitely not in a classroom, since I don't recall ever reading the whole thing... and neither does anyone else I know.Typographenia wrote:Or there are simply people that remember reading it in high school?

But yeah, fff I don't see how Ancient Mariner reads like "bathroom poetry" (no more than anything else that gets referenced in Silent Hill, anyway), but that's just me. I thought it was neat since it got me to find the whole poem.

Re: Downpour Easter Eggs (spoilers within)
Yeah, it's a nice catch! I never messed with that stuff enough to have uncovered it.

Emma backwards is Amme = Anne ?

Re: Downpour Easter Eggs (spoilers within)
I just noticed this the other day, but if you stand outside the window before going in to see DJ Ricks and listen, the song playing sounds sort of like Theme of Laura from SH2.
Where is the room where the TV explodes?

There's one exploding TV in JP's apartment at Devil's pit, and there's another one in the house where you can pick up the pre-order items and possibly find the first Doll.

Where is JP's apartment in Devil's Pit? I am doing a runthrough on the 360 so my son can watch, and I want to go there.

It's the apartment you have to go through before you find the lighter.

The room with the radio or the room with the spy log?
