Silent Hill 2 on PS3
Has anyone here attempted to play Silent Hill 2 on an 80GB PS3? Does it work well? Thanks!

There are no issues with any of the PS2 Silent Hills on the 60GB.
For the 80GB, SH2's only problem is that James' character model flashes grey during the sequence when he exits the bathroom and has his opening monologue.
I should also note that Silent Hill 1 does not work on either North American PS3 model.

I own a 80gig north american PS3 and have just played SH 1-3 and Origins on it. here is what I encounterd.
SH1: using fire arms through out the town (walking the streets, inside the gas station, corner store, ect.) creates a high or low pitch tone that annoyes the crap out of you. this noise can be I found can go away when entering a door, once I knocked the sound out competely until I went trough a door. ths nois also occures at the boss fights I think all af them but for sure the last boss.
The sound does not happen when you are in the school (except in the court yard) the hospital or nowhere (except the last boss) so when if these areas feel free to blast the crap out of everthing with out that god awfl noise. Other then the sound issue I have not come accross any other issues and I have done 2 play throughs.
SH2: I have not noticed the gray flash but through out the game parts of james dissapear as well as some close corridor walls when you are getting chased by PH towards the elevator and the when you pull the noose down it dissapears. I have done 2 play throughs and other then the half a second that james's limbs dissapear and the other mentioned issues I have not encounterd any other issues.
SH3: the only issues I have incountered is when at certin points that you meet the detective his beard is white, not like he is old but white as in the texture map dissapeared leaving the hairs looking like they are glowing white. this seems to be constant from when he drives you to SH all the way to the end of the game as well I think near the end of the game Claudia's eyebrows do the same thing. I have played through the game 4 times and have not come across any other issues.
SH Origins: I have played through the game at the least 4 times and have not encountered any problems.
Remember this is just for the 80gig PS3 not the 60gig. I also do not own SH4 so I can not play it on my PS3. hope this has been some what informative.

That sounds about right. But one thing I should add is in SH2, the glitch where James' arms and legs flash happens everytime you pick up an item. This is nowhere as bad as the sound glitch in SH1 though.Empyrean wrote:I own a 80gig north american PS3 and have just played SH 1-3 and Origins on it. here is what I encounterd.

ive been playing SH2 on my ps3 (80 gig) for the last couple days and i have had no problems with it. actually the only one i've had problems with is SH4 when you are in the apartment room the wall textures flash an ungodly amount that's all i've noticed really...

o yea the sound shit in SH1 i played it on the 60 gig and it did that i havent tried it on the 80 yet... also, in SH1 the picture seems to look like crap, worse than on the ps1 the screen looks grainy and the textures are extremely pixilated, prolly because its emulated, not actually played...
dear fredrick, i know what you mean about the ps2 thing...
my hardware set up is as follows...
24" Samsung SyncMaster 245sw widescreen PC monitor full 1080p, the VGA is run to my PC tower the DVI is converted to HDMI and run to my ps3 (80gig) with the audio for both run to a Logitech THX Z-5300 PC surround sound system... everything runs like i had dreamed
but with one problem... i can't hook any of my old consoles up to it which sucks alot.
