Capcom should give you some kind of medal for figuring this stuff out. It is fascinating to see such intelligence in action. Huge fun to watch.

I love playing Separate Ways, but just hate that thing. It's one thing to face it in combat boots and a flack vest, but just unnerving to do it in a dress and heels, bare-shouldered. Awesome to see you knife it to death. :D

This is the most AMAZING thing. If you've never faced Garrador before, you first have to figure out his attack patterns and then invent your responses to them, then knit THAT together into a dynamic, adaptive sequence. I imagine it would require a willingness to get killed by that thing a gazilli...

Poor Allison... first she's parasitized by Las Plagas, then she dies from an Uroboros infection.

@leavenworthkd I think he looks like David Boreanaz, and lots of women think HE'S sexy, so why not?

Time to burn a holy candle or five...

I thought the 'mirror room' in the hospital with the advancing slime tendrils, and that wet, tearing sound was WAY weirder than some of the ones you have here. How about the giant Eileen head in the hospital room, with the freaky eyes that follow you wherever you go, and the moaning noise? Or the...

Congratulations on an absolutely beautiful work. I've always loved Silent Hill, and felt this game under-appreciated. I've often played sections of it just be be in this or that beautifully atmospheric environment, turning the light on or off to experiment with the visual effects, and strolling s...

I have what I call 'optimized saves' in my SH3 files; that is, I killed all the enemies and then backtracked to earlier save points to save again. I did this with the shopping mall, the subway, and the underpass, so I could walk through these dark, blood-stained, haunted spaces with the leisure o...

This is soooo true... I tried to recite the vows as soon as I heard them the first time... Even sitting here in solitude, without the pressures which are upon poor Victor, it took me fifteen replays...hilarious!

Carol's voice captures so much of what I love about Silent Hill. So easy to imagine a great beauty, in the advancing twilight of age, married to aught but the fading ecstasy of grief; serenading a lullaby into a demon-haunted darkness. Such lush, sweet melancholy.

It's one thing for posters to put up one of these with similar scores in 'public assembly', but another thing entirely to do something like this in the prison (and I'm capable of neither). Astonishing work, my friend.

@krautdoggg Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia... Its happened OVER and OVER since. It looks different because cultural contexts give it different faces and practices, but genocide is the SAME phenomena wherever it occurs. If you don't see in yourself the potential for what you remember, than your remembra...

@Kuronekogirl784 In SH3, in the chapel library, in a page called 'a note on syncretic religion', it's explained that the cult in Silent Hill acquired, after the arrival of Christian immigrants, many of the outward trappings of Christianity, including the names of many Christian demons and angels....

Another that I liked was the incinerating red light that chases you through the corridors of the Borley Haunted Mansion, after you've been made to jump a couple times but are lulled into the false impression that the place is harmless. Things like that, the mirror room, and the ghost shove are th...

Don't know about 'creepy'. Cynthia's death was sad and had an odd, melancholy grace in the telling. Lisa's death WAS truly creepy, as well as shocking, because of Harry's abandoning her like that, locking her in to die alone and pleading. That thing with Heather--an SH 2 reference of course--is j...

@TheMilanMiki 'First Aid' is the injection of the Uroboros virus into the victim. They fall down, thrash about, then bloat up and explode. A really good way to leave timed explosives in your wake, but just don't be standing there when they go off, or you get blown off your feet and take damage.

@bakedinspiration All these little minds getting wound up with this thing...and then your stellar comment. Awesome sense of proportion, my friend!

@kitschystitch True, this isn't the Tea Party. True, this isn't OWS. Those two are symptomatic of economic stressors that have been increasing since the inauguration of Reagan in 1981. If the 'money pump' from bottom to top isn't reversed--and soon--an 'ism', possibly several, will form and asser...

The only occasion I had to use the beef jerky was the Slurpers. I HATED those low-to-the-ground buggers, but could fix them in one location with the jerky, after which I pounded them to death with the steel pipe, the frequency of blows of which I found more effective than the much slower mace. Th...

I found that by turning out the light I was able to simply walk past the 'Insane Cancer's in the subway and office building dance studio. In the chapel, I could melee them to death by turning out the light, walking up to them, hitting them with the mace, stun-gunning them when they got up, then h...

Try seeing this symbolically: the 'closers' representing the misperception of people. They're in tank-top dresses with high-heeled boots, and have arms which taper to swollen, bulbous ends. First encountered in a shopping mall, could they represent women carrying a shopping bag in each hand, as s...

Always thought it was a shame Eileen was so severely injured. Would have really liked to have walked around with her without the injuries, in that sleek dress.
