I'm Not Sure About This Stanley Chap.

Riona: It looks like this 'DANGER: KEEP OUT' sign fell off this door. I'm not sure I want to go through this door.
Tem: Hey, it's not on the door any more, right? So it's fine.

Anyway, that's the story of how I got eaten by a giant worm.

Later I found a hairdryer, which gave me the perfect way to deal with this water-dwelling worm: let it drag me into the water again, secure in the knowledge that at least I'd be able to dry my hair afterwards.

I'm still talking about Silent Hill 3, if that's not clear.

It's never good news when a building turns into the Bad Version and you go 'wait, the version I was just in wasn't the Bad Version?'

There was some graffiti visible on the wall that said 'FRIEND' when we met Vincent, no doubt indicating that Vincent is totally, totally trustworthy.



I knew in advance that Harry was Heather's father and that he'd be found dead partway through the game. The scene where Heather discovers his body is very upsetting, but I found it hard to focus on it when I was so distracted by the fact that Harry apparently hadn't changed his clothes in seventeen years.

This game must have been very rough for big Harry Mason fans. After all you took him through in the first game, he's killed offscreen in the third! I think Silent Hill 4 makes it canonical that James Sunderland is missing, but at least there are other reasons he might have dropped off the radar; it's not guaranteed that he's dead.

H-Heather. Heather, you need to tell the police about this murder. You cannot just leave the corpse in a bed in your flat and run off to another town on a revenge mission. There will be questions. Even if there weren't questions, you would regret this decision the second you walked back through your front door.



I looked at the clothes in Heather's dresser, and Heather decided she didn't need to change. Heather, you're wearing a miniskirt, which is not advisable Silent Hill attire, and your jacket is covered in blood.

I do like Heather's character design a lot, though. I wouldn't bat an eyelid if I saw her in the street, which is not something I can say for many PS2-era videogame women.

I used to listen to various pieces of music from this game when I was a teenager; it's strange to hear them in context for the first time!

I'm enjoying this awkward, sad detective more than I thought I would.

Douglas, I think you and Heather should probably stick together. I think it seems like a bad idea to send the traumatised seventeen-year-old to search an abandoned hospital alone.

It's really cool to be back in a part of Silent Hill I recognise from the second game! Familiar, friendly Brookhaven Hospital. Well, maybe not that friendly.

God, a fetus nestled into this sacrificial girl's womb, was summoned with the usual rites.

OH, THE USUAL RITES. THE NORMAL, USUAL RITES FOR SUMMONING THE FOETAL GOD.

Don't tell your daughter you nearly strangled her multiple times when she was a baby! That's not information she needs!
