Characters
















-Ex-solider protagonist: Because horror games are more scary when you have the confidence left by years of combat training, and have been calloused by war. You're supposed to be able to use almost anything as a weapon.

Harry was a writer who was sad about his dead wife and looking for his daughter. James was a janitor who killed his wife. Heather was a useless teenage girl. Henry was a fag. None of the previous protagonists were good fighters (unless you count pillows as weapons for James, and factor in alcoholic rage for Harry)

To digress, Heather was the perfect SH protagonist. She was weak and stupid. That makes for a much more horrifying and hopeless game. How can she hope to fight anything when she's a teen girl with no muscles or experience in fighting, armed or unarmed? How can she even figure out what is and isn't reality with her superficial, consumerist, incompletely developed brain? But whatever, that's not scary at all, having the odds against you in survival and perception is mundane.

-Elle: Alright, let's just go with french for "She", naming characters is lame. Once again, silenthill5.net says it well. "She is said to be "like Maria from Silent Hill 2 she is said to have streetwise sexiness but retains the relatable girl-next-door cuteness of SH3 heroine Heather." It appears she has a history with Alex which might mean that there could be a love story somewhere." So they recycled Maria and threw in a touch of Heather for cuteness and so they won't seem like total sh2 fanboys. One interpretation of sh3 is that Heather is killing people and not monsters (see the cinematic with Vincent near the end of the game). That's not so cute or girl-next-door. Also, she lives under an assumed name and is (along with her dad) on the lamb. Probably what they meant to say was that they had a crush on Heather's sickly ass. Also, tripod's sitebuilder is a piece of shit that doesn't believe I made this picture a different size. It's supposed to be 943 X 432 pixels. Just click it for the big-ass size so you can read the text in it more easily.

-little brother: Oh, a child is lost in silent hill and the protagonist has to save it? At least they`re recycling sh1's plot, and not sh2's. And don`t forget lame-ass American PG-13 `Horror` Movie aspect of that. "Ooohhh it`s a child I'm totally creeped out and a preteen!!!" Yeah, I know the movie had the little girl (Alessa/Cheryl) and that they marketed it like it was one of those movies. But it wasn`t, and by now they should know it`s lame for a video game to follow movie trends.

I wanted to add something degrading and witty to that picture, but I hate it so much that I can't bear to spend any more time than the minimum required to put it up. God, look at it. The only redeeming quality is that he looks like he's been drowned, and I hate him, so I hope that's what happened.
