Silent Hill 2- Making of 2/4

[sebaswildboy]

ya know ya know

[rtti88]

yo fuck konami america why whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

[vcv99]

this was a bit stupid, they forgot the main star of the silent hill 2 series... Guy Cihi, that man was the shi* with his monster quote

[HerrenbachStyle]

name of character artist is sato and my name is seto xD (nooo.... not seto kaiba >.<)

[Auron10124]

htt p://thatguywith theglasses.c om/podcasts/horrorcast/33451-s­pecial-interview-with-guy-cihi­-part-1 to everyone who is wondering WHY guy cihi's face is blurred, check this out

[v2791]

Is that Guy Cihi whit the face blured?

[neilss1]

Those sketches of maria are what made me go to art school, no joke

[RoseBuddi]

Pause at 1:20 for epic face xD

[amylovespiggies]

.....y'know.

[axelrudipel]

Why did they blur out James' actor's face?

[rope89]

why not, we can made a grop similar as the silent team, probably here exist a lot of musicians, developers, graphic designers and several writters to put the silent hill saga in the correct way, why not?, sh homecoming and downpour doesn't look have te core of the real silent hill. ...it's my own point f view... :)

[TheKrustaceox]

6:02 lol Eddy xD

[raven66614]

7:29 "Short nigger mouth" LOL

[THENIGHTWATCHMAN08]

@raven66614 LMAO

[nittoga1]

Guy Cihi is censoored from this video? Why the bluring in his face and no charater presentation? Bummer

[johnnysasaki]

@nittoga1

he complained about it in a recent interview.He said they concealed his face and identity in this making of for no reason,and there's also the whole redubbing thing for the HD collections...

[ChainsawApe]

"You must be thinking five... hmmm.... that's funny. There are six characters. That's easy to explain."

Oh, so they're going to mention James finally. We get to see what his VO/Mocap actor is like.

"The same person played Maria, and Mary."

What the fuck.

[Indeterminatio]

"... you know"

[ETF13ily]

1:21 Id say thats pretty perfect.

[OmegaOwA]

"Unlike James, Angela is really bizarre." Um, what? haha.

"I'm not crazy! ....At least, I don't think I am." -James.

[ksioamaral89]

God..Japanese know how to create scary games or movies

I wish western film makers/game developers were as talented as Japanese

[HerrenbachStyle]

if yu opn de mauf! xDDDDD omg i love the way, how he is speaking !! xDD

[haeverland457]

David Schaufele is a live-audio techincian and oprator who also resides in Tokyo, and actually continues to keep in contact with Guy. Monica Horgan relocated to Hawaii a short time after the prodcution of SH2 wrapped up, and she currently runs the NamiMori House at Hanalei Bay in Hawaii and is the director of Raku International based in the greater Los Angeles area. Jakey Breckenridge's information is unkown.

[haeverland457]

As of 2011, both Guy Cihi and Donna Burke remain in Tokyo; he is the CEO and founder of Shibuya-based Lexxica, a word engine designed to help people learning Japanese via courses to practice the vocabulary, and Donna Burke is the founder of Dagmusic, a Roppongi-based sound production company and booking agency, and Hoteeze, internationally-sold heat pad products. (cont')

[lucirz]

the voice acting sucked

[KedViper]

@lucirz There were probably translation problems.

[Phelaidar]

you know...

[IndalecioCeleste]

"I was pervert!"  This man is truly awesome. What's he doing now?

[freewilliam93]

She had a dudes head n that drawing......

[kamdevil]

Dear Konami of USA based please hand over Silent Hill series Back to Konami Japan... trust me this is what every fan wants...

[coconutwalrus139]

@kamdevil ikr? the people of konami usa are douchebags! they diss silent hill 1 and two.. and the bosses! its like, if you hate the fucking series why are you making it jackass?

[Sceptorful]

Why wasn't Laura mentioned at all?

[BlindMunkyHead]

You know ...

[Yesterdaysmaybe]

I noticed they didn't say much about James...and nothing about Laura. Wonder why?

[Silverduskess]

I guessing that they didn't talk about James' character to keep his status (whether he's alive/dead) more ambiguous?

[sessarego]

3:39 thats nothing sexy 0_o

[Krueger22]

if this team worked on a new silent hill for this generation, it would be incredible. they've always been super ambitious and now might be the time where the technology can really meet their demands.

[WRATHWALO]

@Krueger22 yeah, man. I would love if they made a remake of silent hill 1 without changing a single thing in the plot, the sound effects or the music. Just better graphics, you know what I mean? cause it's such a great story and the music and sounds are perfect even for today.

[vaporousshadow]

the voice acting in the american version of this game is so delightfully bad lol. James sounds stoned out of his gourd

[fridaolsson95]

you know xD

[ElegeantFencer]

The girl who played as Maria is sexy!

[RebekaTarpey]

why did they have to blur Guy cihi face out alittle?

[yourheartofdarkness]

@RebekaTarpey because they wanted to avoid paying residual compensation for his performance and they never told him they were doing a making of video either the way he found out about the making of video was because of a fan

[tomaspeverell]

you know...it's good...you know.

[ZomBiee669]

@tomaspeverell yes,you know.

[kdgfg]

they needed better voice actors.

[FMAfanFMA]

@kdgfg I enjoy giggling at the voice acting.

[TheMgsFanatic]

Best Silent Hill Ever

[Yungnuty]

Where is Laura ?

[BiGRiCeD]

Guy Cihi isn't very happy that they blurred out his face.

[Offspringfan64]

Played it for Xbox. Loved it.

[SunsetInIbiza]

The documentary didn't talk much about Guy Cihi because, for some reason, KONAMI really hates showing members of the team that aren't official KONAMI employers (freelance, in other words). This is why Jeremy Blaustein (a key member of the staff for the game) didn't appear in the video at all, even tough he was there in the studio every single day.

[kimjae19]

how many times did the japanese guy say the words "you know"

[MyGodzilla99]

@kimjae19 28

[alykanin]

@kimjae19 Not as many as most Americans do.

[Phantomx16]

Wished they were still together. I'm sad how things are going for Silent Hill.

[nave712]

@Phantomx16 wished who were still together

[sessarego]

@nave712 the creators of silent hill 2

[nave712]

@sessarego u mean the team who makes the games there called team silent right why did they break up

[vivalaminion]

@Phantomx16 sad but utterly true...

[andrew19vato]

@Phantomx16 what's happening?? are there new people making the games now, have konami sold their contract or something? im a masive fan of silent hill, although i haven't played since silent hill 3 so I have no idea what's going on...

[tobysensei]

Team Silent were much more than a development staff, they were artists.

[thcsabinad]

you know

[fireball420]

Guy Cihi is the guy how vo james i wish he made more VO he was good in james

[RamsonRulez]

Perfect.

[f00tbol]

I like the real Maria! ;-)

Who knows what happened with team Silent maybe they burned out on the subject for now, maybe they'll come back Silent Hill rules

SH1, SH2, SH3, SHO

[NemesisProducts]

They didn´t tell anything about James... =___=

[almostham]

thats some sexy lower lip action he's got there

[universalfreak1212]

YoU ...i llike the guy ... KNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW­WWWWWWWWWW????

[TheAarontheblackmage]

why was the james actors face blurred out? 

[dinospitter]

Maria Breeched her hair

[kamilm122]

that guy which talked aobut animations is veeeeeeeeeeeeeery boring -_-

[ROEDERBABY]

1:00 - This guy is now the "You Know"-guy.

[o00Bobo00o]

This shows how big the game industry is...

...Silent Hill isn't just a game,it's art.

[regina5666]

well that sucksss still good game tho

[regina5666]

why is the person voiceing james never mention?

[Naroon201]

@regina5666 From what I remember, the guy who played James was just some businessman off the street or something, and he wanted to remain mostly anonymous or something.

[Tizronell]

@Naroon201 Guy Cihi wasnt included because they didnt even tell him they where making a "behind the scenes" he said that in his own personal interview thegamingliberty. com website. Konami just doesnt like to involve people who weren't "oficially" working with the company.

[LostBlossom]

@regina5666

His name is Guy Cihi. I believe he is nowadays a teacher or something like that.

[guitarraplayer12]

this guy is hilarious

[kaybabe254]

"Now unlike James, Angela is really bizzare."

... Yeah, I would call the man who sticks his hands in rusty-ass toilets, forgets he killed his own wife, and abandons his car and opts to walk around a deserted town instead is pretty bizzare as well...

[yunnanne]

I'm going to tokio to take the computer that pc guard the images and programs of maria I love maria!!

[yunnanne]

maria is the best for me...I love....

[Zzer0zZ]

Silent Hill (minus) Team Silent (equals) just Hill...

HILL BILLIES RUINING ARE GREAT GAME >:(

[ghostspider]

i think team silent broke up in different directions didnt they? if so, it would take a lot to bring them back together.

[dinospitter]

teamsilent should make a comback you know?

[TheeOneWhoTalks]

Then us americans get their hands on the series :( BOOO!

[DarkHiei55]

this japonese guy looks like the friend of jaspion

[Ondori412]

Schwartzenegger mouth? lmao

[FunkyKarim93]

You know ?

[yourheartofdarkness]

uh......why did they cover up Guy Chis face? they show every other silent hill voice actors/actresses except for him

[CandyCoatedCrystal22]

@yourheartofdarkness The person probably requested not to show his face for reasons like witness protection or family.

[yourheartofdarkness]

@CandyCoatedCrystal22 yes that would be logical but why does his face show up on google images when you type it in? and yeah thats his accual face

[CabDragon]

I see the title of the Silent Hill Movie Making of in the sidebar "Path of Darkness". It´s like spoonfeeding the audience that this is a horrorfilm. This game didnt need that. It was just called "Silent Hill 2". just a thought

[serentor]

Are they planning on a 6th part? If so, I hope those guys do it.

[Eniacbc]

Whoa, that Takayoshi guy is awesome! Really loves his work, you can actually see that love in the game ^^

[MRmatthieu49]

how many times did the guy say "you know"

[Redemption46]

1:12

Kinda looks like a Japanese Nick Frost...

[FinalFantasyLov3r124]

They should specify what Final Fantasy movie. There's two.

[TheAarontheblackmage]

@FinalFantasyLov3r124 and they both sucked

[FinalFantasyLov3r124]

@TheAarontheblackmage I think the Final Fantasy 7 one was much more better than the other film

[TheAarontheblackmage]

@FinalFantasyLov3r124 it looked cool i just thought it didnt make any sense

[FinalFantasyLov3r124]

@TheAarontheblackmage Yeah you need to play Final Fantasy 7 to get Advent Children

[TheAarontheblackmage]

@FinalFantasyLov3r124 i DID play ff7 and it still made close to no sense to me

[Bornkilla174]

awsome

[soadfan33]

Very interesting stuff. Thanx for posting

[chuk90]

Why James iez censored D:

[METALmARiOKID91]

If Silent Hill had a live action movie, i always imagined Chris Farley as Eddie, r.i.p. i thought he was the inspiration.

[GazAnders69]

I love this game..scares the shit out of me but it's so addictive i go back for more sat in the dark sweating lol

[indogtog]

I love the attention to detail... also, shallow note, that guy who talks about the character designs and all is fucking hot.

[rei612]

@indogtog i totallly agree xD i totally saw him w/ some skinny jeans on too :) so double times hotness

[miryjur]

ye know

[lioneyejr]

@miryjur was just about to post that and i saw yer comment XD

[Obsidiax]

Damn I wish they had spoke more about James |D I'm supposed to be researching this game for graphics...

[Axelander9999]

Why aren't showing the guy who's playing James ?

[anexperimat]

haha they blurred his face in the motion capture sequence too. I bet he was ashamed of his shitty voice acting in such a popular game

[202cardline]

The depth they gave to Maria is breath taking. I don't think I will look at her the same way again. Just...wow

[FinalFantasyLov3r124]

It's so funny when they talk about the characters! It's like their real people, that's how close they are to them!

[fuckinfak]

LOL he said that Angela has schwarzenegger lips

[kaybabe254]

I LOOOOOOVE when video game makers talk about the characters. Because to them they ARE real people in a sense because they spend months sketching them out and giving them personality traits such as Maria dying her hair several colors and having the tummy flab. xD I love listening to how THEY think the characters should be and what everything means to them. :D

[thumperka]

4:17 lol "Be....Maria...."

Great docu. Really enjoy this vg series.

[CleverDjembe]

I know this is gonna sound weird, but I actually find Maria very attractive, because her face and hair reminds me of this rich girl I used to go to school with...

And the real girl who played Maria and Mary.... SEX BOOOOMBBB!!!

[WhoreGotShot]

that guy really did look like eddie

[inhumancode]

Sato Takayoshi is the man.

[SkyMusicTempo]

What is the name of the song?? 3:07

[Stanley10scorpion]

Promise - by Silent hill 2 [Track Number 30]

[xandeath666]

lmao Great video. Great game. Just has to be said here....you know just like...you know...you know i'm just saying...you know. Hahah Gah! stop saying that!

[codename7000]

That's how some people talk are you dumb?

[monapropertygirl]

Oh man, this video made me go and dig out all the Silent Hill concept art I could find just so I could drool over it.

I think the way Sato took so much care in designing characters like Maria is admirable! It's all the subtle details that make for a strong character.

[AlexGuitar1987]

Great. Thanks for uploading! I got it with my Silent Hill 2 game aswell, but this saves me some time :-) Silent Hill 2 is a genious made game and will always be my favorite in the series!

[Cypres1]

ha, I don't have to buy the UK version of Silent hill 2 to get the special dvd, I can just watch it on youtube yay. but why wasn't the dvd in the US version? or even the japan version?

[ace125koo]

Yamaoka's score is among the VERY BEST in ANY videogame!

[wetube1112]

you know...of course..you know, well..you know ...

[FrapondaBMB]

yeah it's just hard to understand what he's saying. this video is good though!

[new8745fan]

Those guys knew what they were doing. That's for sure.

[colombiatm]

@new8745fan see i disagree, i think that they just came up with stuff along the way & resulted in this masterpieces, in my opinion things result better if not planned, look @ homecoming, it's obvious those guys knew what they were doing, & whats the result?

a corny piece of game copy of the movie.

[caorr]

@new8745fan but still silent hill origins was not a let down was it ? i personally loved that game, it kinda payed homage to the series (particularly SH 1) but SH5 was kinda of a let down gameplay wise ( graphically is was top notch)

[SonicDeeHedgehog]

I guess I'm not red blooded. I didn't find Maria sexy at all. I found her creepy.

[Mattnek]

why the motion actor of james has the face blured???

[babduck101]

Team Silent must come back to the Silent Hill series.

[new8745fan]

"Team Silent must come back to the Silent Hill series."

No argument from me.

To anyone else who reads this: Do you think that turning over the development of SH 5 or Homecoming from team Silent to the Americans was a bad idea?

[Fullmetaljawsfan63]

yes but i hope shattered memories will prove me wrong

[Liquidus118]

@new8745fan

Not bad idea, HORRENDOUS.

It's like like making a baby make a sequel to Shakespeare plays.

[sidecutte]

Absolutely, it's a horrible idea

[smittens888]

In Japanese there is a word, "ne", that is really similar to saying "you know", or "don't you think". It's a normal way to punctuate sentences, and it's very common. So that's why they seem to say "you know" so frequently when they speak English. =/

[Clarie011791]

Sooo why's Jame's voice actor so secretive...?

[animelover129]

awwe, i wanted to see laura

[SpadeHand]

Y'know

Y'know

Y'know

[computerhoofd]

Uknow uknow uknow

[misscarly12]

LOL, pervert James! 5:28

[feliciottiabel]

exelente video

[luishomeroremohsiul]

i had no knowledge of this making of DVD... this is absolutely fantastic!

[repoelfie]

Whoa, I thought Angela was 20-something.

The character parts have to be my favorite parts of "making of" videos.

[ElliFong]

Oh man,never played Silent Hill before,but Silent Hill 2 is art!!!

[gingerkids]

she breached

[Multrox]

they didn't show James' actor :(

[OmegaOwA]

James' voice/actor is never credited for his role as James. It is credited to Guy Cihi, which is most likely some kind of alias. Also, as you see in the footage, James' actor's face is blurred off :/

[Multrox]

Damn. James actor is shrouded in more mystery than the game itself :(

[POLE7645]

Cihi eventually sent e-mails to the Silent Hill community, speaking about his role (don't remember where though). He's not an actor. He's simply a businessman working in Japan. They were conducting auditions for Silent Hill 2 and Cihi went in with his daughter (she wanted to audition for Laura) and they convinced him to try for James. He said he had a blast playing James

And a photo on his company's website shows that he looks a lot like James.

[cube2station]

Looks a lot like James?!?!?! :O That has to be something!

[POLE7645]

Well, in term of face and hair color, he does look like James.

[ikmal017]

who look like james??

[POLE7645]

Guy Cihi, James' motion/voice actor.

[smittens888]

Wow. This totally made my day XD "I try to act sexy in front of mirror"

Not that I'm dissing on him, I'm very glad he did that. But it was just funny to hear. I liked his impersonation of a 'bad photograph' too. Haha..

[cube2station]

Eddie has to be one of the most interesting characters in Silent Hill 2. Maybe there should be a side story for him or something.

[repoelfie]

I think they should do a side story for Angela, too. Maybe it's just me, but I'd like to know what the hell happened to her...

[luishomeroremohsiul]

she gave up on life and commited suicide..

[repoelfie]

No, she walked up some firey stairs.

[luishomeroremohsiul]

yes, that is precisely a metaphoric way of expressing she killed herself...the stairs of fire are a symbolism..they never really existed...it you examine angela's knife frequently amongst other things youll get the ending where james kills himself...her suicidal tendencies were transmitted via the knife..

[Ac3Jay]

I'm pretty sure if walking up firey stairs doesn't count as suicide I don't know what does.

[XHUBIUX]

3:24 really strong emotional artwork

[SilentKonami]

It's really sad that Team Silent abandoned the series. =(

SH forever. <3
