Whats your favorite Silent Hill Moment

[BLSR1]

What moment in the series do you like the most

I like the prison in Silent Hill 2 cause you jump into like 5 bottomless pits
Then go through a door and you're outside

@dot
seriously dude, you've gotta play through all them silent hill games, get all them endings ASAP !!

[SinValentine]

lol speaking of endings what do you guys think was the most fitting ending to silent hill 2?

i ask silent hill 2 because it's the best one in my opinion

Spoiler:

show spoiler

i think in the water ending is the real ending. someone similiar to james' description was mentioned in silent hill 3 by douglas. he said it was a missing person's case. if he had taken laura with the leave ending then he wouldn't still be missing. also if he chose maria that might not leave him missing either. rebirth ending i thought was cool but kind of like a cliffhanger so i'm not sure if he died that way. there were more endings i think, but i can't remember them right now

well ...

Jame's father is a NPC in Silent hill 4, and in that game the character says upon seeing a portrait "this was given to me by the super frank sunderland, his son and daughter in law disappeared in silent hill a few years back"

so yeah, the 'in water' ending is pretty much the true ending to silent hill 2, and imo as well its the best suited one, afterall james isnt a 'pure' character either. He didnt deserve to get a clean break..

on that note, the UFO ending of silent hill 3 takes the cake as the best ending ever.

dog ending was great in silent hill 2 i just remembered eddy's guts

That Ending was amazing!!!

Some of the SH2 ending got me a little chocked up

[SinValentine]

silent hill 2 did bring out some emotions i mean it was well done! it just gave me a different feeling playing it, especially the music too. my favorite song is Alone in the town, i also like null moon and the day of night, room 312 is good too... ah the whole thing was good!

[Scream]

I thought it was kinda weird how Douglas said "Nobody's gonna cry over my grave." and then Douglas' voice actor died a few weeks after. Not my favourite moment but my favourite creepy moment, I think it's a good quote as well.

[SinValentine]

:O his voice actor died? wow i didn't know. douglas' character at first i didn't like him, but i liked him in the end. i liked vincent more than him though "it's not that far, but it's closer than heaven" or something like that

[BLSR1]

I like it when victor messes with Heather's mind in the church
implying that the monsters were really people raised a lot of questions in me

[SinValentine]

vincent not victor i think there was a reference to that in silent hill 2 as well. the protagonist (heather, james, harry, henry) always sees the world fucked up or in nightmare mode. that's their own world, the real world could be going by but they're stuck in that kind of limbo

[BLSR1]

sorry, For some reason when I read an earlier post I read "victor" instead of "vincent" and It stuck in my head

Silent Hill 1 beginning, the music is fantastic, and when you reach the alley, the camera work is amazing, one of the most memorable moments in gaming for me.

Also, Silent Hill 4.

All of it.

really, all of it ? i for one thought it was the most lackluster game in the series, obviously because it wasnt meant to be a silent hill game to start with.

Well, that's part of the reason I love it. I went into the game with the preconception that this would be a horror game with alot of Silent Hill references, and that's what I got. I can understand why many people disliked the game or didn't believe it was anywhere close to the other games, and really, that's Konami's fault for forcing the team to make it a Silent Hill title.

However you can tell the team was under strain, I mean, they completed Silent Hill, it was a huge success, and they were given enough time to create Silent Hill 2. However, due to it being a bigger success, they were made create Silent Hill 3 right after 2, with 3 suffering for it, and then when they tried to create something fresh and new, AKA Room 302, Konami made them throw more Silent Hill references in and tack on the Silent Hill name.

If anything, the reason we have not seen anything from Team Silent since 2004 is probably because they were worked to the bone from around 2000 through to 2004. And with, what I imagine, mass dissapointment with the Silent Hill film, only three members of the team are still visable, Yamaoka (who is taking alot of credit for the creation of the series), Ito and Owaku who are currently writing digital graphic novels for Japanese cell phones within the Silent Hill universe.

So yes, Silent Hill 4, great success!

Also, another favourite moment, Silent Hill 2, when James realises everything in the hotel room after watching the tape.

[SinValentine]

nightmare mode didn't scare me at all it did have some good parts to it though. and it was cool seeing frank sunderland sometimes i'd look through the peephole and i'd see frank sidestepping
my favorite moments in silent hill 4 was watching eileen through the hole and watching frank sunderland too

[Project Omega]

Actually, I think that was Frank sweeping... I liked watching Eileen more though... Especially as it got closer to her scenario...
