Wait, is Harry Mason(protagonist of the first game) supposed to be a writer? That's not been mentioned at all yet.

IIRC he was struggling with some writer's block before the events of the game, and the in-game save points are actually notepads where he writes down all of his thoughts on the crazy stuff happening around him.

So, SH2 spoilers here... Made it to the Alternate Hospital and I gotta say that Laura can fuck off for all I care. After leaving me to die with those weird... bed... kissy monster things... I don't know what they are. All I know is one of them started strangling me with its damn ankles and she locked me in a room full of those things. What the fuck? Stupid kid. The other three people are alright I guess, though I'm not a fan of Maria. She followed me around for a while which gave me an "Escort Mission" vibe and nobody likes those. Eddie seems pretty chill but his fashion sense is atrocious. Angela's gonna lose it so I don't want to be around when that bomb goes off.
All in all my situation can be summed up as "Angry, terrified, lost, and confused." In a good way.

Yeah, they are, but it's just not been said at all that he's a writer. Yet, anyway.

Good thing about having to go back to the Hospital, I knew when I had to fight and when I could just fucking run past the monster, so now at a part where, previously, I had no ammo, no healing items, and was dying in one hit, now I've got tons of pistol, shotgun, and rifle ammo, and i'm loaded down with healing items. Hooray.

I started playing at 10. It's 6: 30 now. I only took breaks to go to the bathroom, and occasionally had to look something up, or just quickly checked tumblr.
Say an hour not playing, since 10, I've been playing for seven and a half hours. That may make this the most immersive game I've played. And it's still fucking scary. If Silent Hill 2 is supposed to be better, I can't wait until I start playing it.
Still haven't finished the game, because I had to load previous saves for stuff because I want the Good+ ending.

Best part of the game is the key hidden in the Jelly Beans.

Beat Silent Hill. Got the Good+ ending. Got 5 out of 6 stars.... didn't know it would grade me at the end, but that's not bad.
Pretty good game. A little confusing and hard to follow at times, and most of the characters acted like idiots, but it was scary and tense and the story was pretty good.

I really should start playing this. I've been occupied with other games recently(well, mostly being brainwashed by Fallout Shelter and playing a few other things) but I've always heard about how good SH was. Might start later.

I just want to point out that: "Lakeside resort town in Maine that has a dark past causing reality to shift and giving the town it's own malevolent life", is only different from Castle Rock in that it's called something else.
In a way, it's quite remarkable though, because if you'd told me Silent Hill was written by Stephen King... Well, actually, I wouldn't believe you. Because what King does better than anything else is character, something Silent Hill dropped the ball on. But its villain, the basic concept, the tone, pacing, atmosphere, everything else I could have been fooled into thinking Stephen King wrote.

Wait, so is the canon ending the Good ending, or the Good+ ending? I mean, I guess it doesn't matter too much, they're more or less the same...
I know the Bad endings are non-canon.

Installing Silent Hill 2 right now. Hoping for great things.
I also found out that the emulator site I was using has Shattered Memories and Origins. I actually have a Wii, so I'd feel bad about emulating Shattered Memories, might just buy it at some point, but it's good to know I can play Origins. Even if it is considered to be the worst of the main series, I still want to play it.
I'm being left out with Homecoming and Downpour though, unless they were released on PC and I can just buy them on Steam or something?

Downpour is better, but its still not great.

By the way, are the movies any good? Halfway decent at least?
