Any Differences for "NEW FEAR"?

Post by **PeachySakura24** » 03 Oct 2007

Don't feel bad, Smokey. It seems to be something a good chunk of us missed out on.

Just remember, try the First person mode everywhere and you will find a lot of Nice things... The "No God" graffitti in the Green Lion altar, the sign of "Caution, if you cross this door the world won't be normal again" or something like this in the clock tower before start the alternate school and the "HELP ME. KILL MOM" messages at that room where you see little Alessa crying under a table in Nowhere... I wonder why the other Silent Hills skipped this bonuses, this helps you to appreciate more the details of the games and 2, 3, 4 and 0 have a lot of stuff that you would like see by yourself...

This all sounds really awesome, but... what extra options menu??

Post by **JuriDawn** » 07 Dec 2007

After you've beaten the game, any time you're looking through the options menu, you can press L1+R1 (if I remember correctly) to bring up a second page of extra options, the most significant of which is the bullet adjust. It goes up as high as the number of times you've beaten the game plus one. So if you've beaten the game twice, you can set the bullet adjust to x3, meaning each box of ammo you find will give you three times as many bullets as normal.

Wow I totally never knew about the self veiw mode in sh1, I'm definitely going to play sh1 again and try this I've already beaten the game many times. So it should be interesting to try this out.. even though it's an older game with slightly lack luster graphics.. Does it improve the look of the graphics any when you select this mode?

No, it does not improve the graphics, but the self view mode can be very useful sometimes, and you can see a lot things that you normally cannot.
I only wish they had implemented this feature in the other games as well.

Example, what kinds of things do you see actually? I mean I've been playing the game with self view all afternoon now today, and I have not really seen anything different with it. But I will admit, it does make the camera and controls a bit easier to handle.

Post by **The Procrastinator** » 04 Feb 2008

There's nothing different about the environments.

What I meant when I said that you can see things that you normally cannot was that you can get a better view on certain things.

It's basically first-person view and you can see some things that the camera angle would normally obscure.

Oh ok, gotcha interesting. I just played sh1 through again today. I got the bad ending, my first time getting the bad ending actually.

I should really get this game then.

I always found beating the game on hard through new fear mode was easier than just starting a new game on hard, you get the bullet adjust and the first person veiw helps you get the heads up on monsters not yet on the screen (the camera pans to keep them in focus)
