IT IS TRUE - I SUDDENLY THOUGHT 'HANG ON, DOES JAMES EVER...?' AND LOOKED UP A SCRIPT AND IT IS TRUE - AND IT IS HORRIBLE.
On a related note, have you played any more Silent Hill 2? I am absolutely itching to see how you'll react to everything.
I'm sorry that I never got around to commenting, by the way. What's really fantastic about your recaps is that I get to see the game from the point of view of someone who knew nothing about it when she started, so I'm sort of getting the playthrough I was denied by having read the script and theories and knowing every spoiler there was to know before I actually played it.
Your 'ARGH' reaction to meeting Pyramid Head in the Labyrinth absolutely cracked me up. I somehow managed to miss him. I would gloat because of this, but that actually made it kind of worse. The problem was that I knew he was somewhere in that place but I didn't know where, so I was running through all the sewer tunnels as quickly as possible, thinking 'OHGODOHGODOHGOD I COULD RUN INTO PYRAMID HEAD AT ANY MINUTE.
(I never thought about James picking up the Great Knife possibly being symbolic! OH GOD MY BRAIN.)
Seriously, I love watching you freak out about everything. It's fantastic. AND YES THE OPEN GRAVE WITH THE 'JAMES SUNDERLAND' HEADSTONE. AAAAAAAAAAAH.
(...INCIDENTALLY, LOL AT YOU, JAMES is the best reaction to James being an idiot ever.)
