Silent Hill 4: The Room wasn't even originally a Silent Hill?
Late in production they decided it resembled the Silent Hill franchise and decided to add it into it. A little "Silent Hill" here a little there. Now to add a reference or two and BAM! Silent Hill.

I had no idea period. It makes me wonder though, because doesn't all the Silent Games have interlocking storylines etc? So it's almost like they kind of, Oh well I don't know, maybe bulled a lot of stuff just to make it a SH game? For anyone who is a SH fan dedicated to the story line that might annoying.

Although I do see where they're coming from. A lot of different horror movies and games nowaday do seem a lot alike so I guess they didn't want to look like they were copying or something.

Two and Four don't really follow any the original story like One, Three, and Origins. BUT Two does provide history on the actual town of Silent Hill and gives the player a better glimpse of what it is and its actual power. Four is just another story with no complexity as to the original plot or historical background.

Stick with me bitches, and I'll make you SH GODS.

Yea, I already knew that about Silent Hill 4... Silent Hill 4 has its connections to the series through Silent Hill 2 when a news article references to the Walter Sullivan Case, and then you go to Toluca Prison and find a marker for his grave. Silent Hill 4 is all about the ending of the Walter Sullivan Case in the present. *what Walter DIDNT finish*. You're right that SH4 has no connection through storyline, but it has its roots twisted in with the other games none-the-less. I wouldn't go as far as to say it has no complexity, just go to our subforum called the Underlying History of Silent Hill..... we had to break down the entire case in 3 parts:
Walter
Victims
21 Sacraments
There are still things left unanswered and are still puzzeling to figure out. That's half the fun of it, but you gotta admit Silent Hill 4 came through with making a good connection to the reference of Walter Sullivan in SH2. Also, in regards to what one guild member said, I don't think ANY part of SH4 was bulled. There are no references or mentioning in SH4 that give probable cause to doubt it has a twisted connection to history and events within silent hill.

You misunderstand me. Of course the game itself is complex. Konami games always are, but it's not connected to the Silent Hill 1, 3, and Origins story. That's all I meant, Comrade.

In Silent Hill 2, when you're in the elevator at... I think the hospital, and you're asked questions by some game show host voice. Isn't one of the answers to a question Walter Sullivan...? Or am I wrong?

You mean the question that asks, "What is the name of the mass murderer who killed Billy and Miriam Locane?" Yea, it sounds familiar xd In a way, Silent Hill 2, though it had no "story" connection to 4, it was a major lead on to the story behind Silent Hill 4.

Yes teh answer was Walter Sullivan.

Q:"What is the name of the mass murderer who killed Billy and Miriam Locane?"

A:Walter Sullivan

Billy and Miriam were the 7th and 8th victims of Walter Sullivan and are known as the (seveneight , twin baby) monster.

xP Yeah, not even made by Team Silent anymore. Didn't they sell the rights to some American investors or sommit? ;__; So Silent Hill 5 is not made by the original Silent Hill team either. That's why it's going to resemble SH4 and the movie a lot but not really resemble any of the original games at all. It's kind of sad. TT TT;

That's also why SH4 has ghosts and none of the other Silent Hill games have them. =________=;;;


It still amazes me how Silent Hill 1, 2 and 3 were all made by a Japanese team. _xD Silent Hill 4 and 5 (don't know about Origins, yet) were made by an American team. x__x; The difference shows...

***Edits***

By the way. Did you know that Heather was nicknamed after her voice actress, that Claudia was designed to have no eyebrows, and that Vincent is wall-eyed because he lies? xp

Since we're doing "did you knows..." sweatdrop (yeah this is stuff everyone already knows. I'm wondering if someone might know some different stuff. x3 )

Did you know.... lol. That there are ghosts in Silent Hill 4 not because of the team that made it, but because of the storyline? The storyline of Walter Sullivan demanded the victims come back as hostile beings. Every silent hill game has monsters we could point fingers at and say "this game had this monster, but none of the others did". *sorry, im a fanboy for SH4, i get defensive over it biggrin * I CAN notice a game difference, but it's not a big enough one to throw me off. Silent Hill, American made or Japenese made, will always be good in my eyes.
