Re: Should the Bogeyman be considered a standalone monster?

The 'newer' monster, (whatever it is/supposed to be) seems like just some guy in a big Hot Topic-designed helmet that works out a lot, and 'creeps' around like just seeing him is enough. How boring. It was like a pseudo-cameo or 'nod' to something else that was actually symbolic, back in the day...*...

Re: Silent Hill 5: Pros (What you like)

What I liked best about this game was getting my money refunded for it at Gamestop.
THAT is so rare.

Actually, the only character I liked was Wheeler.
Mayor Bartlett's drunken snide attitude was amusing, too. That was it.

Re: Silent Hill 5: Cons (What you don't like)

Not only do I not agree with 'SH' being combat-oriented, but I don't think over-rendering EVERY single tooth in someone's mouth to the point of them looking like puppets is a very good idea. I have a long list of why this game is useless, but I think I'll take the easy route for myself and say that ...

Re: Guy Cihi Plays Silent Hill Arcade

Yeah, I thought it was bizarre when he posted it on his actual Facebook account after his birthday. And yes, he is quite the attention whore. I don't know if I like him, actually. Also, the 'tribute' thing was just, well perhaps he was a bit drunk? Sometimes when I drink, everything can potentially ...

Re: Eddie Dombrowski R.I.P

The only thing that ever bothered me about Eddie...was where that pizza came from. Everything else seemed normal for his type of character.

He was a self-loathing, unpopular guy who flipped out. Happens to the best of us.

Re: How this game could have been fixed.

This is my opinion, but I didn't feel anything but frustration while playing this game. Then I remembered I was playing a highly dumbed-down version of what Silent Hill used to be. There was nothing for me to think about or analyze. My impression of it was mostly "get the key item located in th...

Re: Doors in Room 109 - Signifigance/Symbolism to Angela?

I always thought the way we see Angela is very interesting. Her surroundings led me to notice that her home was her own personal purgatory, but only after a few plays of the game. Reading the theories on here brought even more light to it. I didn't really notice the white door in the apartment as be...

Re: How old were you when you played the first silent hill?

I was sixteen the first time I played Silent Hill. Borrowed it from a friend. I stayed up all night completely blown away by the story, the atmosphere and especially the sound. I was happy thinking "finally, a game that has pressed me to use my mind and analyze my surroundings!" Last night...

All I could think of on the subject of Dahlia in the game was that horrible comic book and how the character named Dahlia in it was depicted.
Way too similar. Yuck.

What is it with people expecting things to be made according to their tastes alone and no one else can have an opinion?

Some children never grow out of that "mine" phase, I suppose.

The first thing that popped into my mind when Dahlia intrduced herself is that, she looks almost exactly like the "Dahlia" from the SH graphic novel.

Think about it. They are very similar, I must say.

What I meant and more to the point-
The majority of people would need help, as where a smaller crowd would be informed.

Majority: Us
Small Group: Team Silent

That's what I get for using FF as a reference. There's always BS-talk involved.

Anyway, I agree with you Ryan. Hands down, whatever.

DONE.

Getting the GOOD+ ending in Silent Hill on your first play or without knowledge of the steps is kind of like taking on a Final Fantasy games' sidequests.
You need help with it. Plain and simple.

I didn't get that ending until a friend told me how. After he looked it up.
