Silent Hill The Movie Thread Reloaded

[Agozer]

I hope Siren 2 would address some of the problems that the first game had. That would be awesome.

According to that interview, Christopher Ganz really seem to be on the ball with the movie, and to really concentrate on the things that matter in the context of Silent Hill.

 

I'm impressed.

how come i never heard of the game siren?

 

 

anywho, can someone tell me how many cd's SH2 cd version comes on?

[garyoak99]

A siren that you can hear in the trailer when things start to really go awry. Basically, it's seems the siren signals the shift to the Otherworld.

 

Maybe.

Thanks, that certainly explains why it's a good thing! It is a good thing at least for the viewers!

The game is realtively niché among fans, it rarely gets any pluplicity within the horror-genre gaming community, because it mostly relies on Japanese lore. From what I can tell, it didn't translate well over. The dubbing was good, but the story itself relies alot on Japanese mythologies.

My copy of SH2 came in 5 disks; SH3 has the same quantity of installation disks

I have a question for the Silent Hill Pros here. I never played the games and want to change this.

Is there a specific order in which the games should be played. I mean, are they connected?

[Wizard]

1-3

2

4

 

Fits perfectly.

I'm extremely impressed. I can't recall (or picture) any other directors recently speak about films with such a passion (let alone directors of game movies), even if he does trip over himself in a few places.

 

Fingers crossed, I can't see how this will turn out like Resident Evil or Doom. The only question in my mind right now is how good this will be. I'm excited.

Every game is connected to eachtoher, but if you want to see the most obvious connections, you play them in the order K`dash mentioned.

 

Silent Hill 4 seems the most detached from the rest at first, but that's not the case anymore when you play it for a while.

[retroK]

Thanks a lot!

I'll try the order you mentioned.

 

As for Silent Hill 1 (PSX) its very hard to find the correct /best settings for the GPU Plug-In. Does someone have a good config for Silent Hill?

Pete's OGL2 with all the bells and whistless, so that the special effects emulation is as close to the actual PSX as possible. Meaning full framebuffer emulation, adequate off-screen drawing setting and Framebuffer uploads also.

 

What kind of problems are you having anyway?

[Weirdy]

use PSXeven; ePSXe lags the game for some very odd reason

[retroK]

I'll try with PSXeven. Thanks for the tip.

It lags in psX Emulator too, SSSPSX runs it almost fine.
