Given the nature of the platform, the titles are nearly impossible to play these days. It is odd to think about games being inaccessible, but it isn't the only game with the same problem. The sequel to Silent Hill 2 is often overshadowed by its predecessor, but it is fantastic in its own right.
The combat makes several subtle improvements and the graphics were leaps and bounds ahead of its time. The facial animations are particularly gorgeous.
Its story isn't the same personal gut-punch of the classic, though. The prequel to the first game came out on the PSP in Going back to the past and having a direct relation to the first entry was a neat idea, but development problems led to a less than stellar product. Sony's first handheld console had numerous problems translating popular franchises to its format, and Silent Hill: Origins was yet another victim of the transition.
Shattered Memories takes enough liberties with the first game's story to feel more like a reimagining than a straightforward remake. The gameplay also puts an interesting twist on the formula, dividing the action with questions and tests in a doctor's office whose results impact the following chapter.
The one that started it all distinguished itself from other survival horror games by featuring full three-dimensional graphics and a moving camera. Doing this was an impressive feat on the humble PS1. After leaving the town's observation deck and walking to Silent Hill, James enters a graveyard and meets Angela Orosco , a nervous young woman who came to the town to search for her missing mother. She warns him that there's something "wrong" with the town and that it could be dangerous, but he ignores her warnings, saying he doesn't care if it's dangerous and that he plans on finding his missing someone too.
When James reaches Silent Hill, he discovers that it is not the same, beautiful town it was a few years ago. In addition to the bizarre, omnipresent fog , the whole town seems to be rotting away and abandoned. Macabre, vaguely humanoid creatures are roaming the streets and attempting to attack James whenever possible. When he discovers that the path to his first destination, the lakeside Rosewater Park , is blocked, James decides to pass through an apartment complex to reach what he believes could be the "special place" Mary mentioned in her letter.
Inside the apartments, James briefly encounters a little girl , who steps on his hand before running away. Soon after that, he finds Pyramid Head , a humanoid monster whose head is completely obscured by a giant, metal, pyramid-shaped helmet. James later meets a young man, Eddie Dombrowski , who is vomiting into one of the apartment toilets. Eddie defensively responds to questions regarding a corpse in the refrigerator of the apartment room.
In another apartment complex , James finds Angela again lying in front of a large mirror, contemplating suicide with a knife in her hand. Trying to talk her out of it, James persuades her to hand him the knife for her own safety, and she flees in an unusual panic to resume her search for her mother.
After James leaves the apartment building, he finds the girl he previously met humming to herself on a grafitti-covered wall. He confronts her in frustration, and she reveals to James that she knows Mary and that "he never loved her anyway", but then jumps off the other side of the wall before James can get more information from her.
When James finally reaches Rosewater Park, he meets a woman named Maria , who appears nearly identical to his recently-deceased wife Mary, but showing off more skin and possessing more of an arrogant attitude. During their time together, Maria reveals insight into matters that only he or Mary would know and acts in a very seductive manner toward James. Maria accompanies James in his attempt to reach his second suspected "special place", the Lakeview Hotel that he and Mary once stayed at.
He also spots the little girl, who runs away from James upon seeing him. Eddie then reveals to James that her name is Laura. Outside, Maria claims to have seen Laura and, out of concern for her, has James try to pursue the girl. While exploring the hospital, Maria becomes sick and rests in a hospital room. James finds Laura in one of the rooms, but he becomes angry at her for claiming to have known Mary for the past year, in clear contradiction to his belief that she has been dead for three years.
Laura responds by locking him in a room filled with covered monsters stuffed in hanging cages under the pretense of looking for a letter from his wife. After they are defeated, the hospital undergoes a sudden dramatic change to the Otherworld , where James returns to the hospital room to find Maria missing. James later finds Maria in the hospital's basement; however, Maria becomes incensed, claiming that James had abandoned her and that he doesn't seem to care to see that she's alive after presumably dying.
After she calms down, they continue to search for Laura. Pyramid Head appears and chases both James and Maria through the hospital's basement, and the creature manages to slaughter Maria while they attempt to make their escape via an elevator. Alone again and saddened by the loss of Maria, James decides to refocus on his original task of finding Mary. He leaves the hospital and finds a key buried beneath a statue in Rosewater Park, which leads him to the Silent Hill Historical Society.
The Historical Society becomes an exploration of two levels: Toluca Prison and a labyrinth , in which Pyramid Head resides. In this area, James finds Maria, miraculously alive and locked in a prison cell, who greets him with memories of Mary. Maria claims that they were simply separated in the hospital basement and that she had not been killed. James tells her that he will free her, but upon reaching the other side of the cell, he discovers that she has been mysteriously murdered.
From a newspaper article , James discovers that Angela killed her father , who sexually and physically abused her under the complicity of her mother. James saves Angela from a monstrous representation of her father , after which she becomes hostile. Angela expresses her distrust in James and men in general, as from her experience they were "only after one thing" sex. She also calls James a liar who "didn't want Mary around anymore" before leaving. Near the end of the labyrinth, James finds Eddie, who has mentally snapped after a life of bullying and verbal abuse by his peers due to his physical appearance and him being overweight.
Eddie reveals he killed the dog of a bullying football player and then shot the dog's owner in the leg. It becomes clear that Eddie is mentally unwell and is willing to kill the next one to laugh at him.
James unwisely asks Eddie if he's "gone nuts", prompting a battle between James and Eddie. James kills Eddie in self-defense, and he feels shocked and ashamed of himself to have killed a human. James questions his perception of the events leading to his arrival in the town. As well, the letter that he supposedly received from Mary goes blank, indicating that the letter itself was something that never actually existed.
James exits the labyrinth and rows a boat to the Lakeview Hotel in hopes of finding Mary. In the hotel's restaurant , James finds Laura, and she gives him the letter she claimed to be seeking earlier, which reveals that Mary wanted to adopt her while confirming Laura's claims of knowing Mary for the past year.
