You just knew he was a jaded, hardcore gamer nerd, the kind of guy who'd sneer if he caught you playing a demo game on easy. We somehow got talking about the merits of Silent Hill 2. He looked at us, shook his head a little too slowly, and said in surprisingly perfect and colloquial English : "No. No, I couldn't hang with that game at all.

You thought it sucked? It was giving me all these really messed-up dreams. If you haven't yet played the console versions, here's the setup: Silent Hill 2 puts players in the shoes of James Sunderland, a something man whose life is upended when he receives a letter from his wife Mary, urging him to meet her in the resort town Silent Hill - a place of many memories and emotions shared between the two.

The brief, intimate urgency of this reunion-summons would be the stuff of bittersweet love songs if it weren't for one near-unspeakable fact: Mary Sunderland has been dead for three years now, victim to an unspecified wasting affliction which James can only think of as "that damn disease.

And yet -- torn, desperate and numb -- he makes his way to Silent Hill anyway. But something has gone eerily and horribly wrong in Silent Hill. The town is deserted save a scattered handful of troubled people James can encounter. Roads are blocked, surreally shorn off, or in some cases disconnected from reality altogether.

More-or-less complete town maps are available -- no minimap though; you must constantly pause and peruse the inventory screens to reorient yourself, but at least James makes handy marks to notate points of interest -- and although many of the town's buildings are simply locked, many others are not.

Silent Hill 2 requires serious exploration, and in fact one building is an entire three-story complex, with individual apartments to check out on each floor. The fog-shrouded streets are alive and crawling with things that aren't, and shouldn't be. The town's pervasive silence is broken only by James' echoing footfalls or the teeth-grating shriek of his malfunctioning pocket radio which inexplicably blares warning static whenever some monstrosity approaches from the mist ; before long, even the player's own sense of time and location begin to misfire, landing James in a bleak and nasty place where the town's dark past begins to bleed through into the canvas of the present.

And we do mean "bleed. James has, well, Things coming after him - some of them look a little like inside-out dogs and some of them look a bit like wet mannequins with too many legs. But some of them don't look much like anything at all, which can be its own special kind of disturbing. Between the somehow hysterical shriek of James' kaput radio and his attempts to bludgeon, stomp and shotgun things than often cannot even be identified, Silent Hill 2 has a uniquely nightmarish feel.

Gamers spoiled with first-person combat interfaces may find the removed third-person combat "nightmarish" in an entirely different way, but the game's aiming scheme allows James to constantly realign himself with gun drawn to any incoming threat. Happily and logically, Silent Hill 2 seems to hinge on a basic philosophical stance on danger, which we find supremely sound: RUN.

Even with such clear thinking, there will be times when you're cornered and have to fight - but before then, why ask for trouble? True, this approach does make you a sissy Damn straight. Unlike Resident Evil, Silent Hill 2's camera is not fixed, and it follows James as he makes his way down Silent Hill's streets or through the interiors of its buildings. The control scheme translates to the PC, but it's not ideal - if you've got a console-style controller for use with your computer, Silent Hill 2 is the place to use it.

Also as with the Xbox version, the PC version allows players to disable the game's noise filter effect from the get-go, instead of forcing the player to beat the game first. It's a coin-toss: With the filter effect off, the game's great visuals become cleaner, more distinct; with the filter enabled, everything in Silent Hill takes on a slightly scratchy, grainy look that adds to the game's already nightmarish feel.

Convenient key-binding saves a lot of repeated trips to game-pause screens for inventory purposes. The voice acting in the excellent-looking cinematic bits still often tends toward the wooden and stilted, but it maintains the mood; in other words, there's none of that drama breaking unintentional hilarity that plagued the first Resident Evil.

In fact, there just aren't a lot of yucks to go around in Silent Hill; even the game's one moment of definite humor is rather sick and visceral.

Again, trust us - you'll know it when you see it. As an added bonus, albeit a small one, the PC version includes a mini-scenario, separate from the main game, playable as We don't want to ruin any more good bits than a decent review forces us to. It's not a very long addition, but it's a nice touch taken again from the Xbox version. In fact, there's really nothing at all new here, except for the fact that PC gamers can finally explore Silent Hill 2.

Only SH2's relative lateness and nothing-new status keeps it from getting our highest score. But don't worry about any of that. You're not here for the humor, or to whine about having a minimap, or to quibble about how a few lines of dialogue could have been improved, or to worry that you have to take an extra second to aim your gun. You're here, presumably, to be creeped out by evocative visuals, very wrong-looking monstrosities, a couple of good old-fashioned cheap-jack scares, and a dark, disturbing, mature story that more sensitive gamers may find themselves reviewing in their heads long after the PC and the lights go off.

If Silent Hill 2 is your first PC horror game, then congrats -- and woe -- to you. Silent Hill 2: Enhanced Edition is a project of enhancement packages that makes the PC version of Silent Hill 2 compatible with modern hardware and displays, while improving visuals, audio, and bugs. If you plan to use Silent Hill 2: Enhanced Edition, do not use any of the patches listed on this page.

My setup is broken I think. When I start it up the first thing that comes up is asking me if I want to "Cinfirm File Deletion" idk how to fix it. Osi 5 points. For anyone confused. All you need to do is: 1 download the fully extracted version. Your computer may already have something to extract zip files. There should be an option to "Extract all files" I suggest creating a new folder for this game so you can easily find it 3. Now you can play the game! I suggest right clicking on the application named: "sh2pc" it will say "application" on file type and click "create shortcut.

ThEmAsTeR 0 point. You don't need to mount the CDs if you are on Windows. For Windows download the fully extracted version. Just extract this folder somewhere and direct the SH2 Enhanced Edition mod exe to that folder when you install it. If you are using Linux, download the ISO version. You will need to mount each CD in order to install it through Lutris. Lutris will have you direct it to each mount point for the CDs, and it will install the Enhanced Edition for you.

You do not need any of the patches here if you are using the Enhanced Edition. Antonio 2 points. Sozzaz 0 point. Guys, i have a Problem with the coin riddle, as soon as i want to use a coin or just select the table i only see a black screen, no mouse pointer to place the coins or anything. Does anyone happen to know what I can do about it?

I'm having a issue after the cutscene where James is in the bathroom and goes walks outside instead of playing the cutscene it crashes shortly afterwards. AnastaciusWright 0 point. Wow points. KittyCat 0 point. Every time you start your PC or Latop, you are going to have to mount CD1 with the same tool you used before.

Victor Magjabol 0 point. Works fine with Enhanced Edition mod! Just use a download manager when downloading in this site. Godie -3 points. Just one click to download at full speed? More like 1 hour and a half with a Mbps bandwidth. I'm used to just downloading and extracting the file and being ready to go. NOt familiar with the disc part. Starlord55 2 points. I tried using the no cd patch to see if that helped, but when i open the no cd patch, it says silent hill 2 could not be found, even though they are both in the silent hill 2 folder.

I tried taking it out of the folder and seeing if that helped and it didnt. Any advice? FlowersInHerHair -1 point. This game saves do not work i get corrupted game data every time that i try to save. The game installs fine with Daemon tools, all you have to do is put one Virtual CD press ok, but don't unmount the image just grab and drag the second CD into Daemon tools gadget on your desktop and repeat and you will get it to install however the game data becomes corrupted every time you try to save your game and we need to know what it causing this corruption help me thanks.

RobbieTheRabbit 1 point. Hey, the download doesn't appear to be starting on both the fully extracted and ISO versions, any ideas Thanks. Simon -1 point. Extracted takes a long time because you are basically skipping installation and downloading the entire raw game. If it's failing, retry via your browser's DL page, and keep ur browser open and network usage to a minimum, meanwhile go out and get some lunch while it finishes.

LegoNenen 1 point. I am having trouble downloading the extracted version. First it takes too long, then the download fails. DJesus 1 point. Classic horror game - one of the greatest of all time, Works perfectly on PC with the Enhanced Edition upgrades installed.

Thanks Abandonware! Immortal King 38 points. Steps 1. Download the fully extracted version and extract anywhere that is easy for you to find.
