My wife hates video games. She wants nothing to do with them. She happened to glance at this one when I first starting playing it. It somehow intrigued her and she asked me what it was all about. After I explained the story to her, she was intrigued even more. From that point on, she obsessively watched as I continued to play. She was so hooked on the story to a point where we actually planned out my game time so she could be there to watch. This is a true testament to an awesome game.

Just my opinion but I think at some point, James truly likes Maria for being Maria, and not because she's a hotter version of Mary. This is why at the end of the game when pyramid kills her, he ends up realizing the truth about her, he breaks his own spell and he has to let her go, so he kills her himself. So when she appears again looking like Mary, he feels nothing.

It's just sad that there's so many people out there who will only play what other people are playing, and will never go back and experience the classics due to their obsession with graphics and guns.

Mr Philospher: that is a really good question. i can't speak for everyone but i personally like Silent Hill 4 more than Silent Hill 2 in terms of story, because i couldn't quite get into James character. but in terms of creepiness and just plain weird, Silent Hill 2 is up there. my favorite one has always been Silent Hill 3 but i liked that game for it's story and it was creepy in it's own way and the same with Silent Hill 4, but there's just something about the atmosphere in Silent Hill 2 that just grips you with fear the first time you play through it, and the fact that the game has a way of messing with your head. so i think Konami did a good job with all the horror stuff and creeping you out, but were Silent Hill 2 loses me is in the characters and story. i never found any of the characters interesting including James, except for the fact that they all were screw up mentally and creepy, and even the little girl came off weird. but in Silent Hill 3 that was a different story, i did get into the characters and story especially Heather. i mean compared to James you wanted to cheer for Heather, she didn't want to be there whereas with James he never questioned what was going on around him or why he was there and whenever he did it was only for a second. so to answer your question, i definitely like Silent Hill 4 more than Silent Hill 2.

As far as I know, Akira Yamaoka is working on the music so I'm guessing this is gonna stay.

Used to watch this intro a lot when I was younger. This series really captured my mind and heart. It speaks deeply to the human experience - mostly pain - and makes it seem so beautiful. The music and dialogue really drew me in. It's emotional and expressive of the darker side of life.

I played Silent Hill 2 just for this song. I heard this song last year and was like “this sounds awesome.” So, a few days ago I finally booted up Silent Hill 2 and played through waiting for the fabled “Theme of Laura” to play in my game. I beat the game a night or so ago on August 28, 2023. It wasn’t until today that the song I was eagerly waiting to hear wasnt gonna play in the game. Rather, it pertained to this intro I am now watching. All this time, I was expecting to hear this song play at a pivotal moment and I would have that Silent Hill 2 moment and be like “THAT’S THE SONG!” Alas, I watched the intro and realized the thing I was looking for was at the beginning all along. I’m 22 years old. This game is as old as me, came out in 2001, my birth year. Thank you for reading this

The Silent Hill series is the very definition of Survival Horror!!! Unlike Resident Evil, which is also a great series by the way, in which all the main characters are either soldiers, cops, mercenaries or mutants and you have access to all kinds of different firepower to battle against the undead, the main characters in Silent Hill are everyday run of the mill regular civilians who have no idea what they're up against whstsoever the moment they are helplessly plunged into an enigmatic demonic netherworld hiding within a seemingly harmless town, with limited resources weapons & tools some of which will actually attract monsters to your whereabouts if you're not careful!!! Whereas RE is very heavy on combat and is more of an action series than real horror, SH is a truly legit horror-based gaming experience relaying as much on atmosphere, weird sounds & noises, odd imagery, mysterious characters & ambiance, cunning, unforgettable music and compelling storytelling as well as intense combat!!! Resident Evil may've given birth to the Survival Horror genre but it's Silent Hill that actually personifies the very term in the truest sense PERIOD :)

Probably the most creeped out I've been in my life. The way the music pulses in deep long moans as the camera shows Maria in a dead on shot. Shots like that are rarely done because they creep the viewer out. Notice that the shots of James in the same scene are all at an angle. This game was a goddamn masterpiece and I was proud as hell of making it to the end. Thanks Valium!!!

The original Silent Hill 2 voices were acted out that way in order to give the characters the emotions we see. The remastered versions kill the original characters and instead change the whole character to someone different. Maria and Marys original voice are seductive and caring. Mary elizabeth mc whatever has the same exact voice for both mary and maria;thus killing the psychological point of Maria and Mary. You change the voice its not the same nor dose it make it better.

I played this game originally when it came out in 2001 when I was in high school. I beat it and never played it again until last week when I decided to buy a ps2 and a copy of this game. Had I known back then I would have kept both instead of repurchasing it 20 years later for an even higher price. As soon as I turned my ps2 on and then the tv this was playing. I thought something was wrong with the game until I realized this was a cutscene. A lot of memories came back that I didn’t even know I had anymore.

One of the greatest games ever made without a shadow of a doubt.

@justasas1 Yes, yes it is. I'm considering film a live action version of that ending.

When drums enter in scene, James says "Are you Maria?" and the great music theme starts... ... in that exact moment you automatically know something epic is going to happen. Welcome to Silent Hill, player!

Akira Yamaoka is one of the best composers in gaming, bar none. The ability he has to weave a narrative in the music by itself that brings your mind into it without even having the game in front of you is impressive. That, and if you've played Silent Hill 1, 2, 3, or 4, you hear one of his pieces and you know exactly where it is in the game and what it meant for you getting there. That is the mark of a damn good soundtrack and I wish more games had that for them.

It's hard to believe that Silent Hill 2 takes approximately 4 and a half hours to complete if you do the main scenario alone on one playthrough. When I finished, I realised that even though we consider a 4 hour game a short one, it still leaves a major impression on someone who has played it. I really look forward to seeing what occurs when the remake of 2 releases and what else of Silent Hill is on its way. It's such a beloved game franchise that means so much to so many people, myself included. And I'm so happy that this is remembered ♥

When I first saw this track I was so confused how is it related to the game. After watching the walkthrough, I cannot unsee this track. It is so perfectly designed.

@Sarcastic Witch are you really a sarcastic witch? Lol

i worked at eb games back in 04 and we had a promo that had all the silent hill intros on it that would play all day. talk about nostalgia..this song would be stuck in my head for days.

Happy 20th Anniversary (9/24/2001-2021) Silent Hill 2, one of the best games ever made.

Until now....this graphic is totally superb!!!

This music gives chills

Still the greatest game I have ever played. Since I was 7 to my age of 25 it still intrigues me like no other.

Just A Masterpiece with everything.

i'm crying i can't wait

Best ever!!!

This game will always have a special place in my heart. It was the first horror game of any kind I had ever played. My love for Dead Space and Resident Evil wouldn’t exist without this masterpiece

Amazing intro :) I miss playing Silent Hill. It's definitely a memorable survival horror.

I wish this game was easy to get a hold of on modern consoles.

You can play every mainline Resident Evil game on the PS4 alone, why could none of the Silent Hill games get the same treatment? It's not even a luxury

If you have a decent PC, you can play it on a PS2 emulator.

@@isaywhateveriwantandyougot7421 oh trust me in the early 2010s the games would go around for 20 to 10 now look at the price you got to sell a nutsack just for it

My personal opinion this intro is better than silent hill 3’s

I didn't realize that drift0r uploaded this

I totally agree. Its an amazing game and its disappointing that there hasn't been a game in so many years that has been able to bring back that feeling it had. Even the music to this game was superb.

Nah this game is better by a long shot. You don't really fight in this game cause that's not the point. I don't even bother with fighting. The reason SH2 is so awesome is the story and how it unfolds. There's so much mystery that you wanna keep playing to unlock more of the puzzle. It is a slow game but it's building atmosphere. The slow build up is what allows you to get slowly sucked into the games world that it becomes quite an unsettling and creepy experience. I won't even play this game alone at night cause I live alone and a few hours playing this and I need all lights on in the house. Sure I know it's not real but after being in dark corridors with a spine tingling sensation hoping you you don't run into some creepy monster, lookin down my dark hallway gives me the jitters. And I don't scare easily but the game is so good at slowly building mood and atmosphere it stays with ya even after you turn the game off. That is a GOOD horror game! If it's too slow for you maybe just isn't your thing but I think most people love the mystery and atmosphere that being slow allows it to build. You craving to unravel the mysteries of silent hill should keep should be a driving factor and if you don't care about all the mysteries it presents and u just wanna progress the story then ya game may not be your thing.

I don't find the game thay scary. I like the isolation and the decision to not put mood breaking inputs like a bar where you can see your health on the screen. I liked this more because the story is really damn good of which will be ageless. Sometimes the puzzle's kind of break you out of the experience, which in this case i used the internet.

PhoenixPhire22 Honestly, this was the least scary out of them all. I played 1 and 2 at night and 1 just felt much creepier and very eerie (but the hospital in 2 was scarier). And I've just started playing 3 and I seriously can't play it at night! The soundtrack from 2 was the best though and the story was written and executed perfectly.

I’m suprised this dude went from Silent Hill to making COD videos,good for him man

I remember playing this and Twisted Metal Black obsessively. The darkest games I've ever played. These and MGS2 were part of a crazy good era

Played game 18 years ago and still listening this song

hardest video game intro to ever be created

This game’s CG scenes are top notch. It’s always the eyes that bother me in most CG scenes, even today. They always have a dead stare, but I don’t get that feeling with SH2. Hardly an uncanny valley. Can’t believe it’s been over a decade and even the CG from 1 holds up so well.

Listening to this in the dark at night is just awesome

I was born in the year 2000 which means I was one year old when this game came out. Fast forward to 2021 and it’s the first time I’ve ever played this game. I really like it. characters are built well. It has an absolute beautiful story. The music syncs up so well sometimes and James as a character is just so tragic it’s a shame I’ll probably never be able to play silent hill one but I’m glad I own the second one. I have silent hill two on the PS2💯
