Interior? You mean the layout of the inner rooms on the map? Unless you spent some time at Danvers when it was open and you're talking about the similarity of the wallpaper

In what context? As a reason to dislike the game? But that's what actually happened to Lisa, we just never saw it in the original SH.

No not to dislike the game itself, just the story people

Was it mentioned in the files? I've never heard it being mentioned till origins.

I guess that depends on how you feel about Lisa.

When it comes to Silent Hill, nothing's ever mentioned officially anywhere. I swear Konami/Team Silent just enjoyed lighting the touchpaper and watching everybody go off on one

But I believe the general consensus was that Kaufmann took advantage of Lisa's emotional struggle in dealing with Alessa to get her hooked and make her more compliant.

Give it up, Nate. I've spent so liong trying to explain this about both SM and TRA, people do not want to listen and instead continue to spout factually incorrect bile. Let them.

Amen to that, my second favourite of the series after SH3

Burn him! Burn him as a witch!

Edit: The song 'Bedtime Story' by Madonna has just come on my iPod. It always reminds me of a song that could be on a Silent Hill soundtrack.

@Spong Yep I spent seven months there and I still remember the little dirty pink camelia flowers on the wallpaper! XD! No, but I did google it and looked at some images of the furniture and the way things were placed in a room reminded me of the Sannitereum.

@jayjay119 Hey I loved Shattered memories. It made my christmas XD! I loved the mood and (although some was recycled) some of the music was stunning!

I think Origins loses out on praise because it was for the PSP and some refuse to accept it works!

^ Oh, that comment wasn't directed at you. Just more on the situation as a whole between the whole 'remake' vs 'reimagining' thing. Sorry if you thought it was


To be fair, it's not the fact that it was made on PSP hardware that let's Origins down in so many people's eyes, I don't think, It's more the fact that the post to the PS2 was a lazy one. There was no graphical touch ups and the controls were quite clunky and laggy in comparison.

It only started 'working' when they ported it to the PS2 (in terms of people buying it)
