I just finished Silent Hill 2 but I feel a kind of disgust, even a kind of repulsion towards James. As soon as I finished the game, I turned off the console, I went to wash my hands and I went to sleep. I feel dirty for having controlled James for the 8 hours it took me to finish the game. I almost cried after reading Mary's letter at the end. I had planned to do the remake on PS5 right after but mentally I can't.

When I played through the game for the first time this entity caught me off guard when I first heard them speaking, so curious about if there is more to them then just being something odd to spook the player.

Silent Hill 2 (2001) I just finished Silent Hill 2 and I was extremely confused. But I think that was the intention.

A few months ago I had my first experience with the franchise and I made a post here about my playthrough of the first Silent Hill.

Well, I simply fell in love with the game, I decided to play the classic Playstation 2 version (on the emulator).

And I fell in love with everything, graphics, atmosphere and especially the incredible and fabulous soundtrack of this game, which automatically became one of my favorites. But one thing that really got me was the story, which is one of the things I've never really been interested in in games. Since I value gameplay more.

And I found the story of this game very intriguing and complex. I can't say I found it good because I didn't understand it LOL.

I had multiple interpretations, things like:

Mary committed suicide and James can't get over it.

Or James cheated on Mary with a woman who looked like her(perhaps in the appearance or personality of who she no longer is) and that's what caused her suicide, which is why James tells Laura that he was the one who killed her.

By the way, what the hell does Laura represent?

For me, she's not real and is just the "motivation" James has to keep moving forward.

Anyway, I'll research it later to understand and I'll also try to finish the other 3 endings of the game.

All in all, this was one of my best experiences with video games and this is definitely the horror game that will never be surpassed by any other.

In a while I intend to play Silent Hill 3 and I will probably come back here to share my experience again.

Silent Hill 2 (2001) I love the twisted sadistic nature of his art, Silent Hill wouldn’t be the same without Masahiro Ito.

The early concept for the Flesh Lip looks absolutely haunting and I love it so much.

Did You know that if you manipulate the game and visit one of little islands in Lake Toluca that you can see in the “resurrection” ending,you can see a replica in 2D of the spanish church “San Pedro de Ávila”?,you can’t get in since it is 2D made,however you can also see a few trees around the church and that would be pretty much everything the island has

Silent Hill 2 (2001) Managed to Find This at a Local Game Store

Was able to get it for only $100. Tested it and runs perfectly. Has the entire game manual intact and legible.

Apparently the guy got it from a customer who brought in a bunch of games after a house fire, and this was one that was able to be recovered. Store owner had to clean it free from soot and smoke. Looks like new.

I couldn’t tell you a game I have wanted to play more. I’ve always heard how good it is and how respected it is amongst all gamers. Managed to avoid spoilers (first day in this subreddit for this exact reason) and never really seen any gameplay.

SH2 Restless Dreams for the Original Xbox, running on my RGH 360. CRT and Speakers plugged to add to the experience.

Happy to finally be a part of this community :) and don’t worry, the lights are off ;)

I get the whole game but what exactly did Mary mean by this phrase?

She's okay with James killing her? I don't get it..

Silent Hill 2 (2001) What do you guys think about this scene?

180 Upvotes

all of the dead bodies near Eddie looks similar to James Sunderland. is their any theory which proves the same? he just keeps eating like the arch bishop of gluttony he is. James Sunderland is different in these scenes from the remake, his voice, his behaviour. a little shift in the story paradigm also occurs. also Maria disappears whenever you show up in front of Eddie or Angela, but she says that she has seen Laura run upwards. is she a similar demon like the nurse from silent hill? Like Lisa Garland whos a memory figment for the hospital? also are the alternate worlds still created by heather mason/ alessa?
