The one that says it was given to him by the landlord, Sunderland? Were you speaking of the fact that the landlord's name is Sunderland, or is there something in the picture itself? o.O
The guy's name was mentioned in various previews for the game, apparently it's James' dad... it doesn't seem to have anything relevant in the story though... I'm now liiiiike 7 hours and 20 minutes into the game...
I don't enjoy spending time in my apartment anymore...
Used to be a relief to get back, relax, examine things, restore health...
Now it's get in, get out, get on with your life....

Yeah Bluefire showed me the Japanese site awhile back... It was crazy nifty... But ran like ass on my old computer...
But I remember I didn't know how to get anywhere on the site because I didn't know the bathroom acted as a portal...
Guess what, I got my soundtrack... Damn straight, biatch!

Yeah... When I heard the name I was like "... Walter Sullivan... Sounds familar o.O" then I heard about him killing himself with a spoon (come on... a spoon? I definately took note of that during SH2), I was like "Hah oh thaaaat guuuuy"...
I found it a really interesting thing to build a new story around for a new game...
I beat the game last night... 9 hours 29 minutes... I'd say definately better than 3... With a very intriguing story...
I think it was a great idea to make the game based on a document from a past game... It gave the story a familiar kind of nostalgic feel while at the same time allowing for something completely new...
I wonder where the series will go next... Will they keep this gameplay style? Will the next game have a "central hub" with a storage room etc, and those mario style controls?
And more importantly, I wonder what the story will be... A whole new entry to the series (as 2 was)? A direct tie-in to another story (3)... Or perhaps another off-shoot of sorts, based on a document from a past game (as was this game)... *strokes beard*

Re: Silent Hill 4 is here
I've already read many rumors about SH5.. heh. Konami says it will be the last on PS2 and probably won't be released for a while..
BTW I love the ghost designs. SH4 takes the cake for unique monsters/enemies.

Re: Silent Hill 4 is here
There's lots of interesting comparisons between this game and SH2 I find. Like the holes, and going deeper into someone's mind sorta thing. Henry seems to be losing his mind more and more as you go on, or maybe that's just me. I remember an interview with the developers about SH4 said something about insanity effects, like the longer you stay around ghosts and other crap, the more strange things will get (like, weird noises you hear in the distances and stuff). Don't know if anyone else noticed this, but yeah it's a pretty cool feature, something to toy around with maybe.
edit: about that stupid ass doll, the one walter puts on the stairs. Apparently you aren't suppose to take it, and of course I took it, just like pretty well everyone else did. I'm hearing it affects the ending, but people at gamefaqs don't know how to write in english, so I don't know wtf is going on. I do know, however, that it does make a pack of screaming babies appear over your chest if you leave it in there. Interesting stuff...
