I have already saw it before in other web, but it's strange, I mean, isn't very similar to any existing character, unless a "young" Dahlia ... or something like that.nur_ein_tier wrote:I find this pic to be a lot more similar to the Harry pic than that one, actually.
And there is another that catches my attention:

Slightly going off...it would be cool to have an SH game where you play through as the 'main' character, but once you've done, it unlocks the ability to play through as the other characters you've met along the way from the perspective. I'd like it anyway LOL

I would love it, simply because I love any excuse to play a game from a different perspective!
Though I can't know for sure, how things worked out for us
No matter how hard it gets, you have to realize
We weren't put on this earth to suffer and cry
We were made for being happy, so be happy
For me, for you, please...

I know! But sometimes, you're not ready for a game to end and no other came fills that craving! So you replay it!

Re: Lisa as a playable character?
Ninja’d by… a month or so… Damn.Lisa's supernaturally compelled against leaving that one room. Her gameplay would suck ass.
Still, she isn’t unable to leave one room, it’s just the hospital (she appears to be some kind of walking, personified, Seal of Metatron for Alchemilla). It would still suck ass though.
Another reason why I wouldn’t want Lisa as a sub scenario protagonist/co-op/tagalong or anything of the sort, is because over the course of the series, we learned plenty about her.
We got more then enough info in SH1, a little bit more in SH3 and lost memories, a lot in SHO and probably a whole lot more in Silent Hill: Cage of a cradle, a comic by Hiroyuki Owaku and Masahiro Ito, which, sadly, no one outside of Japan has ever read.
Silent Hill 1 character I’d like to know more about is Cybil Bennett. We are given nothing about her past, no reason for her apparent trust of Harry, she’s just kind of there. Which is sad, because I think she had potential. (I know she’s given a back story in the Play novel, but that thing isn’t cannon, and the back story is changeable and sucks either way)
Ideally, you’d meet her in the hospital after Dahlia, and would go with her to the Green Lions (getting there would be a bit more complicated, possibly involving a fetch-quest, similar to the keys of eclipse) and on the way her and Harry could exchange a few words. We’d learn more about Cybil, her job, Silent Hill’s drug trade AND we would learn more about Harry, his wife, Cheryl and his job as an author. Then some shit would happen, like having Cybil hurt by a monster near the Green Lions, thus giving us a rational excuse as to why Harry would be the one to enter the secret entrance and not a trained police officer.
There, that wasn’t so hard! Now we’re given a bigger emotional response to her bossfight, more info, and the Good+ endings and the alt intros implication that Harry and Cybil will raise the baby together wouldn’t seem so random.

Re: Lisa as a playable character?
I think it would've been totally unnecessary for Lisa to be a playable character. However, before I found out you play as Cybil in the play version on Game Boy, I thought you play as Lisa instead. It wouldn't be fun. You'd just be sitting there and hearing her complain about Harry not being around and not being able to leave the hospital. That's just annoying and not good for a game.
