Silent Hill Heaven

I second this. Shit's in the domain of legend.

It's been so long, I legit can't remember, but I honestly don't think so. Possible though!

I bought the PS2 copy when it first came out, and I wouldn't have minded it, but I had an atrocious sound glitch that caused the music/sounds to only loop once, which meant essentially no real ambience throughout the entire game. Imagine that in a Silent Hill game of all things. I returned it for an...

Yeah, I find it's super tedious on normal games. But when you play NG+ some of the areas are way more interesting visually at least. Those areas are definitely a slog to get through normally.

I will be in pure denial even if I own the game and see the credits roll.


And knowing Konami, they are very, very capable of streaming two hours of incredibly mundane, subpar bullshit.

Very special announcement from last year at E3 anyone?

Yeah, it's quite the betrayal.

Imagine finding out Yamaoka did this with Silent Hill 1 and 2? I'd be pissed.

Then the music in SH1 and 2 gets replaced by pinball and pachinko music. Hell yeah.

There was a really bizarre controversy with the original RE1 music composer. Turned out he was a complete fraud and he hired someone else to make the music. I'm assuming that's why hah.

As a side note, it's awesome to catch on some of the old folks when things like this happens. 'Sup Kage, 'sup Tbone, 'sup Warfare, 'sup Tabris

Hah good to see you dude. Seems I'll stick with the SH forums til the better end hah.

I think he mentioned something about the 'haunted mansion' and staying true to the Japanese element of it. So it's sounding like the first game. The second game would be so amazing though. If he doesn't do that one, I really hope the first does well enough to justify the second game. The third one i...

Gans and Mitchell didn't get along while making the first movie, so I doubt she'll be back. Aw really? I really liked Rose in the first movie. She felt really forced in the second though ugh. I'm really damn excited for this. Plus a Fatal Frame movie! This announcement was probably one of the least...

It seems these rumors are catching more and more momentum. Sadly, I have such little faith in Konami to do these games any sense of justice that I just can't even begin to be excited about it. The newer Metal Gear and Contra games haven't exactly helped either. Also their 'very special announcement'...

Hearing that stuff just makes this hurt more.

Sounds so cool thought!

I really enjoyed watching it too.

Thanks from me as well!

It's cool as hell seeing all these things, even nearly 20 years later. I honestly feel even at 30 years people will still find interesting things to tear into these games.

6734?

Really awesome video. I figured at first it'd just be more random speculation, but it's backed up surprisingly well.

Yeah, I'd have taken the UI glitches anyday over the audio glitches. I was so damn disappointed since I love Origins a lot and I wanted to play on the big screen with upscaled graphics really badly at the time.

Oh well, that was like a thousand years ago. Still a little bitter though.

The PS2 version was definitely the superior version graphically. However, at least in MY experience, the PS2 version was vastly inferior due to a pile of sound glitches I dealt with. The music tended to not loop, so pretty much in any scene or area, the music would play once and then it'd be dead si...

The very reason the events of SH2 are even possible are a direct consequence of the events in SH1.

This basically sums up it completely in the most simple way.

There's no doubt it's part of the canon as far as I'm concerned.

I'm fairly excited for it. It took a long time back in the day for me to finally find the blu-ray of the movie. I was seriously disappointed at its lack of features and it's the one movie I care to see them. When I do a Silent Hill binge and get to the movie I kinda have fun watching them afterwards.

^^ Yes, that's Frank Sunderland, his father. At one point you can inspect the picture in Henry's living room and he explains how it was given to him and how Frank's son and fiance went missing. That's off the top of my head though and may not be entirely accurate. As for most annoying haunting, the ...
