It gets freakier/better about half way through.

Good game, not as good as the first though, IMO.

Enjoy. :)

:o  Unfortunately, I\'ve never played the 1st SH.
I thought SH2 was pretty good though. The story
and atmosphere is superb. Gameplay is indeed
not very innovative, very linear ol\'adventure stuff.
But it\'s in no way a \'harm\' to the game. Also the
way you control James, is better imo than RE.
Wished there\'d be more sorts of monsters though....
:crap:

Very good atmospheric game.

I went through the game 5 or 6 times, some times with a firend.

Now I await the 3rd SH game.

the Game is Superb

Miss Money Penny Got me it Last Christmas and i still play it.

the Endings are Different plus there are some bonuses to unlock

(extra Weapons)


plus the Mysterious DOG ending


my only gripe about the game is that it could of been a little more polished (with the game menus and combat) but other thatn that this is a AAA IMO.

Sorry to double post but your wrong

the first one was superb right up to the swears then it went tits up IMO.

best parts of Silent Hill


School + Alt
Hospital + Alt

the Start was far better in SH1 what with the darkness slowly closing in around you as you run down the alley.

He\'s not wrong, it\'s his opinion.

And, IMO, he\'s spot on.  :)

I\'ve played a little of it when my brother barrowed the game from his friend. Good game. Can\'t say it is better then the first (also, I haven\'t finished it by the time he returned it) but it is, IMO, a great game (from what I\'ve played).

Maybe I will get the Greatest Hits version eventually (has extras that were not found on the original version [basically, all the extras that were on the Xbox version like the Maria side story]).

contains some v small spoilers

yea, i just prefer the whole story on sh, plus how u got different ending ie not killing the cop, talking to the doc etc, not like sh2, where u have to not heal yourself quickly, keep checking on maria etc to get different endings
