Eddie's victims in the meat locker...

...are all dressed exactly like James!

THEORIZE IMMEDIATELY

Maybe we now know what really happened to the guy in the chair in the clock room...You said thorize....Well just off the top of my head...Maybe since all the REAL people in Silent Hill 2 see what they want to see, then maybe, since we as the player see what James sees, then all the dead bodies are what James wants...Punishment for his sins. Witch could then lead to death? Like the "In Water" ending?

But then again...I just did that off the top of my head so don't take TOO much out of it.

Actually, I think we're seeing perhaps a facet of Eddie's mind, the part that makes him say "You've been making fun of me all along!"

I never thought about that...Hey just thought of this. Maybe at each characters death we see what they see. Like Ang and her stairs of fire that was never on the map, and Eddie and his dead bodies of James everywhere. And for James it's whatever ending we get. I don't know, just a thought.

Maybe.

Obviously James plays a huge role in Eddie's trip through the abyss, considering James is the one who takes his life.

Excellent post! I really like this a lot, and I believe it is what James wants to see. These bodies might be something different looking than what Eddie sees. I think it is infact what James wants to see, because this is almost towards the end of the game, and by that point of time he knows what he has done, and this is what also makes me believe that "In Water" ending is the true ending.

how come the corpses dont have a face?

Post by **Nurse Babz** » 20 May 2006

they have the "face" of the lying figures it seems, just like the one in the alley or side street, w.e.

I love the look James has.

"Now Eddie, did you do this? You little rascal you."

Maybe the creators were just to damn lazy to make more people . . .

Not likely at all.

Post by **Conjurer** » 20 May 2006

Well, it could be likely because in every game their's always more jammed doors than accessable ones.

All the bodies don't have faces to hide the fact they've used the body texture because they don't feel like making new ones.

There's a lot of jammed doors because the game would be very obtuse if every door were accessible. That's done to keep the game pace fluid.

The bodies don't have faces because they aren't human and have no faces. That they have the same textures is the point of this thread, because they wear clothing identical to James. If they wanted to make new clothing textures, it would take them maybe an hour to do so. After poring through the game's textures, and seeing the almost-insane level of detail applied to objects you don't even notice, I don't believe that for a second. If easily-noticable textures are repeated, there is most definitely a reason behind it.

And finally, we don't see Harry Mason's face intentionally. You can't tell me they were too lazy to model the guy's face.

That's interesting, I never noticed this.

Agreed.

I have been playing Silent Hill now for about 5 years...Now with that said, I have found that nothing I mean NOTHING in Silent Hill is there for no reason, or because the game creators got lazy as some of these people like to put it. I mean with a story like the one they have FOR EACH GAME, do you honestly think that these guys get lazy? Or that they just said, "Ya know what guys...It would take to long to model Harrys face (Or a few dead boddies in a meat locker) so lets just take what James looks like and use that. I don't think that ANYONE will even NOTICE." These guys made the GREATEST game of all time and one of the BEST storys ever. If the creator of Silent Hill got lazy and made a game...It would be called Halo. (My 2nd faveorite game is Halo)

I'm pretty sure he does, because either I'm having de ja vu or I've actually heard about one of the dead corpse's having james' clothes before.
