Wish House

[Chez Daja]

Hahaha, following my advise and starting SH4 again?

Those flying men are ghosts/victims. Horrible little buggers. I hate the noise they make. At least you know when there is one around...but still... It can be pretty frightening...

It would have to either be the Insane Cancers SH3 or the ghosts in SH4. The ghosts are not only a pain in the ass, but they can't be dodged all that easily, either.

The Insane Cancers are just huge and the don't really back up much when you shoot or hit them. On top of that, they've got loads of health and it seems to take them forever to finally go down. Bastards...

The more and more I see SH2, the more and more I want to play it....right freakin now! It's on it's way, so I won't have to wait too much longer.

I haven't played SH3, so I can't comment on that, but the ghosts -are- annoying. Those are probably second on my "shitlist" of enemies.

I know! I felt like that for ages before playing SH2. It really is a wonderful game, though. I know it's lame, but sometimes I sit and anticipate my brothers' bedtime so I can finally get back on the game and play. I think so far I'm enjoying it more then SH4's gameplay. I think I was a bit reluctant of playing SH4 because of the fact it had no radio and it just has this creepy effect to it. It's hard to explain, I suppose.

I feel more "safe" on SH2. And as much as I love the dangerous side, I can't help but bask in a safe enviroment on SH when I see one...Hence loving room 302 before it became infected.

I know what you mean. I'm not sure if you can do it in SH2 or not, but another thing that I REALLY like about SH3 is the fact that you can reload your weapon as you are walking. That's the main key to stay alive!

When something is walking toward you, get some distance between you and the creature and just start firing and slowly walking backwards. Keep walking as you reload and you'll be fine. Just keep that flashlight off. They aren't as easily attracted to you in the complete darkness.

[Chez Daja]

Yeah, I do that a lot -- keep the flashlight off, that is. But only when I'm walking through Silent Hill streets. Mainly because there's hundreds of monsters out on the streets in Dark Silent Hill. Whenever I'm inside a building I keep my light on. Is me me, or has anybody else noticed that nurses still seem to see you with the light off??

Maybe I did something wrong, though.

[Bryan]

I thought that, too. I just turned off my light and put quite a bit of distance between the two of us and just stood still as to not make any noise. They still came after me for a few seconds, but ocne everything was dark and quiet, they didn't seem to mind. The Numb Bodies are especially like this. Hell, sometimes if you're quiet, they won't come at you even with the light on.

You know what we need? Cool Silent Hill Wish House cult signatures. I'd make some for us, but they'd look like crap as I don't know how to do much with PS.

[Chez Daja]

Well, I have a few friends who could make us some tags, although I'm not sure if they would... We want them o look as good as possible... I would suggest this idea to Dante and then link them on my photobucket. But I have a feeling he's too busy to do a project like this. When I think "good tags" I automatically think of Dante. Maybe we could make a post in Digi Com. asking for tags.

...Only something small though, I think? Unless you have something else in mind??

I had some old tags that I made. There's a Heather one and an Eileen one, although they aren't too great since I made 'em on my old pc, which had a dodgy enough monitor.

And yes. Although I find some of the dark places a bit tedious to go long periods of time through. On SH2, I'm so far up to the hotel. Lemme tell ya, I was so...

Spoiler: Hysterical with laughter when I had to kill Eddie. I killed him with about three or four shots.

Although, admittedly, I'm playing the game on easy mode.

I found it strange when I...

Spoiler: Found Angela with the depiction monster of her father...Then I had to kill "him" ...

After that, I was a bit pissed off because...

Spoiler: I just saved her frigging life and she showed me no respect whatsoever...

Bah!

That works for me. I'd just like to get something with Heather in it. It's be sweet.

ALSO! I just got a job at Gamestop today, so nice discounts will be coming my way soon. I really hope that SH5 will be in the near future. I need that damned game!

[darkViVi]

YAY Hollow, I too wish to work in a gamestore
Congrats!

Anyway, you could ask Odin to make tags, he is fairly skilled with photoshop.
I've seen a little of what he has done and it looked good.

[Chez Daja]

Perhaps we should post in Digital Community soon then. ^_^

Discounts, haha, luckyyy. Wish I could get a job in a games store... hey, maybe I'll try when my insurance comes through again. SH5 should be out 2007, from what I've heard.
Also, did your SH2 come yet??


EDIT: DV, oh really? Well then, we could, I suppose...

[Bryan]

Nah, it hasn't come in just yet. I expect it to arrive tomorrow or Friday. I need to tear into SH3 and get it finished so I can play SH2 right when it arrives. THEN, I can finally go back through and read all of your posts on SH2.

After that...I'm going to try to find a copy of the first SH and complete the series. It's going to be sweet!

Oh, did anyone check out Ebay recently for Silent Hill stuff? They've got alot of movie props on there now. At least when I was there they did. There's some stuff on there that would make wicked collector's items.

[Chez Daja]

Heh, makes me jealous because I don't use eBay. ._.

Yeah, hopefully SH2 will come tomorrow! I need somebody to talk about it with, haha. Apparently, Odin stopped playing after he highlighted a spoiler of mine and got pissed off at it or something. @_@;...

Anyway, we need another topic. Thoughts on Walter Sullivan, anyone?

His name is actually mentioned in Silent Hill

Spoiler: 2. It says he murdered a few kids in Silent Hill a few years earlier, which you might know if you've played and finished SH4.

=D!

Also, I liked Walter. I felt sorry for him, mainly because he was...

Spoiler: Abandoned in room 302 as a baby, and was led to believe his mother was the room itself. I thought his determination to restore his "mother" was fascinating. He so wanted to be loved.

I think Walter was a little jealous of Henry's safe and happy life, whereas Walter had a shitty life, in which he was cnsumed in...

Spoiler: The cult of Silent Hill after being taken to Wish House to be raised. For those of you who don't know, Wish House is a place just outside of Silent Hill, somewhere within a forest surrounding the area. It's also said that Alessa had been there once or twice during her life.

A lot of people wonder -why- Walter Sullivan targetted...

Spoiler: Cynthia Valesqueez. Well, it's because she was horrible to Walter. She and her friends made fun of his homeless state a while before. Walter was homeless, and being laughed at upset him.

The only person who was ever nice to Walter, was Eileen, and that was when she was six years old. She saw him laying in his own filth in the Subway. He was cold, and she gave him her doll. Walter, at the time, was eighteen. Is anybody wondering "but Walter doesn't look THAT much older then Eileen." Well, I shall tell you.

Spoiler: All along, in SH4, Walter Sullivan was dead. He killed himself supposedly in the water prison by digging a spoon into his neck, severing some things, and then bleeding and choking to death. He was buried in a grave in Silent Hill, which you will actually see in... Spoiler: Silent Hill 2, when James exits the prison after his scuff with Eddie. After this, Walters' ghost, which was seeking the ever-restoration of his "mother", awoke, and then went to Silent Hill to dig his body back up. After this, he took it to Room 302 and hid his body inside a wall in the hallway of room 302. (The very same hallway that connects Henry's bedroom and bathrom to his main room and utility room.)

If you read that spoiler, you may be wondering "how did the hole become covered?"

Well, it had been there for a long time, and not even I know this... All I know, is that...

Spoiler: Walters' ghost was waiting for Henry in his (Walters') own mind. Henry's "dreams" are actually a seeking view into Walters' mind. Walter had targetted Henry for a few reasons, but the most sensible and feasable reaosn I can think of, what because Henry was living inside of the apartment. He'd been living inside a room that Walter adored, and this made him jealous. He wanted him out of the way, so what perfect way to restore the room by completeing the 21 Sacrements then by killing Henry off?

A lot of this has left numb patches in my mind. However, I will share further points with you.

Spoiler: The subway is where Cynthia made fun of Walter, and so he killed her there. The next, was Jasper Gein, inside of Wish House inside, where he burnt to death. Andrew was in the water prison, where Walter had suffered and died. The apartments was Richard, who had been horrible to Walter as a little boy. Walter didn't love, nor care about any of them, so he had decided to kill them. He also killed others before this. Eileen is the 20th target -- the Mother target. And Henry was the 21st Sacrement and also the holder of knowledge and wisdom. I'm not sure why Eileen was targetted. Maybe Walter had an amount of care and love and wanted to free her from misery of the ever shifting apartment building? =\

...If anyone knows, clear that up for me, please??

Henry finds Walter in...

Spoiler: Hospital world, deforming somekind of hideous body. I find this part in the game one of the most winding and tedious parts in the game. After hospital world ends, you are in Walters' thoughts still and then you go through the levels again with differences, along with Eileen, who you find in hospital world after hauntings almost killed her. You go through this, with Walter often appearing and shooting at you from all around. After this, you get to knock a hole in your own apart wall, fun! Remember what I said earlier about Walters' body being stored behind the hallway? Yep! The very same hole! Henry goes inside and finds Walters' body tied up. At the end of the game, there is a hole in the floor, where Walters' ghost is waiting. You have to make Walter mortal in order to kill him.

What did you guys think of SH4? Do you share my views, or have different ones??

[darkViVi]

Thats just amazing^^

I haven't completed the game, and was like this confused little child whenever I played it.

Meh, I wasn't even sure who Walter was LOL and how did you learn all of this??

So..

Spoiler: Walter was dead all along? o_O

This game has confused me so much, I really should finish it

Anyway, nice going there Chez
