Would you dare to tread the world of Silent Hill, if that were truly possible ? Walk the path of Harry, James or Heather !:eek:
Before you tough guys say YES, there are rules to it.
1. You cannot bring any attack weapons yourself. That includes all kindsa guns, stabbing weapons etc. You can only use the standard weapons like in the game. So that means NO chainsaw.
2. You cannot use or bring along any kind of vehicle in Silent Hill.
All sorts of vehicles, including cars, bikes, bicycles, skateboards
or inline skates mysteriously refuse to properly function while in SH. So.... you gotta walk/run with your own feet.
3. You cannot use/bring any kind of communication device. You ARE on yourself in SH. Nobody from outside can reach you, nor can you contact them. No MGS codec stuff here !
Ok, that were some constraint rules. Now we will cover some options you may use which could give you help which the game protagonists did not have.
1. You can wear what you want. That means ; you can wear protective clothing. This includes combat gear and stuff. (army trousers, boots, protective Kevlar vest etc.)
2. You may use observatory help items. Think of stuff like Night Vision Goggles or Thermal goggles. Maybe even binoculars, although their use will be minimized due to the thick SH FOG.
3. You may bring along food. Remember ! This food will NOT restore your health like the medi- power ups. You WILL have to find those just like the game characters do in the games.
Ehmmm... well, I would be pretty scared and hesitant to actually go in there but eventually, on certain terms I\'d DO it ! Ok, I would wanna wear combat gear like Solid Snake has in MGS1 or something like that which offers some protection.

Also, I\'d opt for the Night Vision Goggles and some food. Hmmm, I think it would be the thrill of my life. What would you do ?

What about the skates that are stacked in your shoes?
Ps: What if you cheat?

Could I be home in time to get Logan to bed?
-
Um, I don\'t really get the point of this... But I guess I would take everything I could.. PLUS the shoes with skates. :laughing:

Silent Hill 2 actually takes place in my town so whatever you throw at me and Rya, we can take it. :)

Who needs to get out more often? The guy who spends 20 minutes writing out a hypothetical situation about a game he likes or the guy who ****ing trolls forums looking to flame people for not being cool enough.

Bite me.

Even though it would probably be the most interesting thing I\'d ever do in my life, I wouldn\'t go to Silent Hill.
UNLESS I had a couple years of combat training beforehand. I was not able to play SH1 or SH2 without dying at least once the first time I played. So going to SH would pretty much be a death sentence. If I knew I couldn\'t die - I\'d go.
-
Don\'t be silly sara, you\'d have a start button installed on your left arm. If you ever died you would just hit that button and you would be thrown back to the last place you were doing well.

I\'ve always been one for putting myself into creepy situations. Every town I\'ve lived in has stories about places where strange things happen or where "satanists" hang out or things like that. When I was younger, I\'d get a couple of friends to go to places like that in the middle of the night with nothing but a flashlight just so we could creep ourselves out. Of course, there wasn\'t anything to really worry about, but it was pretty easy to get spooked in some of those places that late at night.
As far as actually going into a town where I knew there was real danger like Silent Hill? The thought of doing that is very compelling, but in reality, I know it wouldn\'t be smart without some major precautions.

LOL :rolleyes: Dude, I\'m at work at my job 44 friggin\'
hours per week ! When you play a videogame you kind
of imagine to be in that place. I was just curious how
many ppl would have the guts to do something like that
if it were actually possible. Ppl who are willing to think
about stuff like this show they understand "the Third Place"
Sony talks about. It\'s also known as \'imagination\' which
serves as an escape of everyday life not confined by the
bounderies of a games console. I find it quite interesting to
whip up such hypothetical situations based on whatever
media content I like. Please do not flame my hypothetical question. The thread is not meant to question my way of living.
Greetz :thepimp:

I wouldnt dare if I could.And even if I did you would have shot myself if there was no other way to get out of there.
And Ryu I am waiting for a reply to my previous post.I am really curious.

Buildings here and there. The textures on the buildings were made to look much more dilapidated for the final release. Still, they are there, and the differences are scant.
