The Silent Hill Franchise: The Best Way To Play Every SH Game

!This is a re upload! The original video was age restricted and ad limited because of a single shot of a SHHC nurse. So I censored the offending issue and reuploaded the video. If you already watched that one, there's nothing new here.

I swear i got the first silent hill in a proper creepypasta sounding way; was buying some ps1 games from a charity shop (i was around 7 or 8), one of these purchases was a cracked box of Driver 2. However, after buying it, i looked in and there were 2 discs, Driver 2, and... Silent Hill! It terrified me, moved me and is the sole reason I love horror in the way I do, and came completely unwanted into my life at first

I really will always think you can just play the first 3 or 4. Everything after that is where you start to see pyramid head come back every game because he's the spooky guy now

18:31 You can still purchase Silent Hill 1 on the PS3 as a PS One Classic title. This can also be downloaded to a PSP. It’s a 294 MB file. This is sadly the only physical SH I’m missing.

These games mean so much to so many people… I will never understand why Konami would choose to make people bend over backwards to play these when they could be printing free money with competent re-releases

Notes about SH1 versions: -PS3 version has a LOT of noticeable bugs. Dialogue cuts out in certain cutscenes, the final area bugs out gun sfx to not exist and even causes an ear-piercing ring when shooting certain enemies. In addition, the motion blur effect causes heavy unintentional ghosting that looks like burn-in. For the most part this option is decent, but it requires conscious workarounds that ruin the immersion, especially in the later half of the game. The PS3 emulation for this game has always been wonky and hasn’t ever been fixed. -Duckstation (a PS1 emulator for PC) is the best way to play SH1 due to the optional enhancements, but with the polygon fixes on, it causes the game to freeze at the church cutscene. There is an easy fix, just turn off the enhancements before that cutscene then turn it back on after. Plus it has the upside of not having to drop too much money on a bunch of physical hardware.

Sh downpour has a special place in my heart because it got me over a break up in back 2019

You know Silent Hill left a big impact on horror industry when indie games still sometimes do "you were monster all along" trope

What Team Silent has achieved with SH3 on the PS2 is more than impressive, in my eyes, it even puts games like God Of War or the Resident Evil 4 port in the shade. Facial animation, lighting, and shadows are absolutely unique on the console, and all this back in 2003! ps GREAT VIDEO!

I had silent hill 1 on my ps1 when i was young but never managed to finish it. 15 years ago i Found a ps1 console in good condition and bought it for a cheap price. I bought the game on eBay and hooked it up on my old tv monitor and finaly finished sh1 before i turned 30🤣 great game❤

The best way to play the first four, plus "Origins" and "Shattered Memories" is alone, late at night, in the dark. The best way to play "Downpour" is to turn off the console, and "Homecoming" makes a great target for skeet shooting or a Frisbee for disc golf.

It’s incredible how such old tech that we grew up with was able to push such boundaries! Amazing synopsis as always dude!

I was just searching for silent hill 2 on eBay for the ps2 about 30 minutes ago and now this is recommended to me 22 minutes after it was uploaded. Crazy coincidence.

I plan to play all soon, so this and your obsession with tech features are a blessing.

Man I still remember the HD collection fondly. It was terrible, but it was my first experience with SH. I still loved the story so much that I played it to get every ending. One day though I found every copy of the originals in a small kiosk. Got em pretty expensive and then I could never go back. The original copies are some of the greatest games of all time, specially on hard difficulty for SH3

Best way to play the SH games: 1. Emulation 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Hello everyone, for the sound bug in in the original PC port of silent hill 2 you have to go in the control panel and set the affinity of the game in only one core of your processor. Back when the game was made they didn't account for multiple core processors at that time.

The scariest part of Silent Hill must be the way Konami has handled the franchise. True horror.

I have a PS3 (slim) by my side running Silent Hill 1 in 1080p. Your image is softer due to configuration (if you press PS home button in a PS1 game, you see some options, including changing memory cards in game, and this image softer), if you remove that, it would looks better than PS Digital.

I'm so tired of people shitting on the HD collection. It's not that bad and a lot of people don't wanna go through the hassle of emulation or buying the physical releases of the originals (very expensive). I enjoyed it and still do. I even got the HD voices for the PC port.
