AUGH
I NEVER NOTICED IT BEFORE BUT IN SILENT HILL 2 JAMES NEVER TELLS MARIA HIS NAME
SHE JUST KNOWS IT
AUGH AUGH AUGH
I keep thinking I should play Silent Hill 2 again, but I can't bring myself to on account of my being, you know, absolutely terrified of it. The things that scare me the most are always so tiny - whenever I think about playing it again I always remember a particular point in Alternate Brookhaven Hospital, when you've just come back into the corridor from the garden and everything's changed and suddenly the camera angle sways sickeningly. That's what terrifies me. A camera angle shift has me too afraid to play the game again.
Stupid tiny terrifying things.
I've been wondering recently whether there's any fandom that could actually win against Silent Hill in a crossover. By this, I mean that you could cross it over with Silent Hill and have the dominant tone not be misery and angst. Doctor Who came closest, I think, but Of Towns and Toasters still felt more Silent Hill-ish than Doctor Who-ish, and when I tried including James Sunderland, Silent Hill completely thrashed it. On the two occasions I've tried crossing it over with Scrubs, Silent Hill did horrible things to the Scrubs tone. It always wins the crossover. Is there a fandom that would have a fighting chance?
(Hammond is walking and talking and eating and apparently furious that the BBC are postponing the new series of Top Gear, because dammit, he's not going to let a little thing like a three-hundred-mile-an-hour crash slow him down. The man is immortal, I swear.)
There are more italics in this post than should technically be legal. Sorry about that.
