The scariest part for me was around at the 33:00 min mark, where it seems blindness went widespread and he couldn't see the "Button Config" he passed by TWICE
Some people must really enjoy that. Sadly for me it's really dependent on the game and the atmosphere it sets and if they're constant joking and what not ends up hurting that. Certain types of horror games I just feel don't fit their style on this series, and I'm worried this might be one of them, but we shall see I guess.
@@thedarkness125 silent hill 2 is one of the bleakest games ever made though. even two best friends play toned down the silliness for this one, even compared to their playthroughs of the other silent hill games. i legit do think that it isn't a game that lends itself to a light hearted, humorous let's play format. it's bleak, heavy, dark, depressing and unsettling.
@@pimposki6232 okay buuuuut consider this, dark humor. Also the game is filled with puzzles, an ultimately convoluted story, (for example the game has several endings, one of which is a JOKE ending), and just a bunch of weird shit in general. All of which can be an opening for goofy jokes. Also fatal frame is really bleak too, I mean it's low-key a game about people being mentally and physically tortured and that playthrough worked out so... Plus the goofy humor may make any possible parts where the team actually gets spooked/serious more impactful, but that just my opinion lol. :p
A thing about the voice acting in this game: this isn't original Resident Evil, they took voice acting here very seriously, to the point of acting out and rehearsing every scene and modeling characters after actors. So if voice delivery sounds weird, it's supposed to be. One of many things that were messed up in the HD collection.
@@touchingisjustthefirststep I would disagree, there are some really well acted scenes in the game, which I won't go into spoilers for, but James and most other characters here are weirdos for their own reasons. When they re-dubbed the whole thing with the Persona-cast of voice actors it ended up sounding worse, even though those are more experiences voice actors and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn - the voice director for the HD collection did mock the original voice acting.
Pro tips for the boys: 1) You can change the controls from "3D" to "2D". This turns off tank controls, but watch out for sudden camera angle shifts. 2) James will turn his head towards interactive or other items to pick up. Helpful "radar" for items. Now to wait until they record 8 episodes before they see this....
@@AkumuLyn Oh yeah, I knew that. It's almost like the most likely ending that would happen and is heavily implied to be canonical. There's a couple of things that might save Davis though, he didn't read the one graffiti about James not going to the same place as Mary, he heals really quickly from damage, and he sped through the Maria escort mission part. Too bad he read that diary on the roof though.
@@AkumuLynon my first playthrough i made a lot of decisions for the in water ending, reading the notes on top of the hospital, listening to the audio recording, but i just healed a lot and looked at the mary photo and still got the leave ending
I remember playing this with a friend of mine who just before finding your first weapon said, "I hate how Resident Evil gives you a knife, I just a want a piece of wood with like a nail through it." We died laughing when I picked up the length of wood with nails in it XD So many nostalgia feels!
I am impressed that David called Silent Hill an emotional purgatory before he even entered the town proper. That is far closer a guess than I'd thought he'd get.
i want a Scooby doo horror game, like Until Dawn, but its only horror when you play with Shaggy and Scooby. The others have different vision of the situation.
actually getting a letter from a dead woman that she would be waiting in their favorite place is totally the opening hook to a CW show followed quickly by meaninful staring out over the lake and fog and music plays and voice overs gives back story
Im so excited for this! Silent Hill 2 is honestly a perfect SGS game. And I can just feel the tension of Alex and Jesse holding themselves back from spoiling stuff. SPOILERS BELOW: I love that Davis guessed one of the main premises of this game because theyve played so many games trying to chase SH2 thunder
Idk how far ya'll are but here are some quality of life tips: James's head turns towards points of interest like items The melee attacks are tap and hold You can strafe with L1 and R1 Also you can control James' head (the camera) by holding L2 and moving the right stick I like the slow burn of Davis walking around, it builds the tension lol
When you guys said the intro felt like a CW show, it reminded me of Jacob Geller's video about songs in horror games, and he said someone told him(or he read it somewhere) that SH2's intro music gave the feeling of high school prom that never was. It definitely has that nostalgic feeling to it. Not helped that this particular genre of music is not as popular these days.
@@Scarshadow666 same, and it’s actually weird hearing the music where it was meant to be in game, I’m so used to just listening to the soundtrack through on repeat.
What's really fascinating is that, unlike many such horror scenarios, there's really nothing stopping James or the players from leaving. Most players would be demotivated by the walk, which was probably the point, but the interesting thing is that James really does come off as if he kinda doesn't want to leave even if everything is messed up. His talk with the girl in the graveyard certainly indicates as much.
11:53 I love how after all these years, the unofficial motto of SGS marches on and the guys never forget it, especially Jesse. Looking forward to this one!
robots. we had android strippers in the 60s, but then some... things... happened. they made a movie about it called Blade Runner in the 80s. it's okay. so strip clubs started a habit of insisting a bit too much. like how a massage place makes sure you know they're non-erotic massages.
The idea that you can find four gamers who have never played Silent Hill 2 before is laughable. Especially when one of t hose people literally completes games for a living.
I really hope he doesn't. Every time he's done it's kinda ruined my enjoyment. I love the dude, I watch SBB and Completionist regularly, but come on. Edit: idc if he's played it in the past, that's whatever for an old game.
@@TheDirtbaggrif Did you watch the episode? Both in this video and RE8, Jirard says he hasn't played SH2. Davis hasn't either. Jesse has, and clearly knows a lot about it, and Alex has too, albeit a long time ago. The thing is that Jirard has played multiple games on his own, while they're being played on the show as well, spoiling himself, and then also talking about things that haven't happened yet.
Grateful they're playing on the PS2, because the HD Collection is a bug ridden mess that's never been corrected. *A game that's literally 20 years old because Konami lost the game's code*
Silent Hill 2: Enhanced Edition looks pretty good, it's a fanmade improvement with fixed fog and 16:9 aspect ratio (also it's built on the original PS2 files)
The fog doesn’t work correctly; in that cutscene where you first see the Lying Figure (the puking enemy), nothing is hidden by the fog! You can clearly see everything! And there were mistakes beside that, too; since every character is modeled after the actor, and also the actors were chosen specifically for their unnatural and stilted deliveries, it really FUCKS up the point to get a new voice actor.
@@Lixxie612 That's the problem with remasters with no input from the original devs, they always make really jarring decisions at some point. I was playing the Demon's Souls remake recently and they do a lot of things well, but everything is more "epic" and clean which goes agains the entire theme of the story.
@@DreadZep yeah, and the darkness is really dark and inky on PC with hd on a modern monitor compared to the PS2. hopefully one day we can reverse engineer and decompile it completely, then we can get a remake or remaster that does it justice
Dude Its so trippy going back playing old video games or watching movies and noticing that the background was either a painting or photograph. Like in 300 a lot of the backgrounds if not all of them are paintings.
I'm excited! This is a series I've never really played and was hesitant to watch a playthrough of. But since the SGS boys are my favourites in regards to horror games, I'm glad I'll be introduced to this series at the same time as some of them!
A universal constant since the very beginning of the internet is that complete strangers in their early teens will scream at you for not playing a game correctly.
Random message but I just wanted to thank you guys for giving me an experience I never thought I would go through. Since the Slient Hill 2 Remake was just released. I remember watching this playthrough and it feels like such a fever dream but I remember enough for me to not be lost as I try to pay attention to the story and details. I just want to thank you guys for such a good experience without even realizing years later.
It's interesting they mention David Lynch films because Toyama, the writer and director of Silent Hill 1 said he didn't know much about horror but he was influenced and interested in David Lynch movies among a couple other things, You can definitely tell Lynch influenced the game
And so it begins. This is still one of my favorite PS2 games to date. Everything about this game, from it's atmosphere and sound design, even the cheesy voice acting is just so amazing. Have fun experiencing this one guys.
Oh my god! I super missed the days when Jesse would make little epilogue commentaries. So glad he is doing it for this series. It's like the year of a million subs again!
Davis is so much fun to watch play these. Everyone on the team is, but I find Davis the most relatable to how I feel with scary games. I feel less scared knowing I’m not the only one crapping myself
If it’s a CW show expect a bunch of love triangles that go no where and overstay their welcome, and barely any monsters cause they ain’t got the budget half the time.
What a lovely surprise!! My favorite horror game EVER, although not as fun as SH3 and other spooky games. The true ending is real messed up but there's no need for any spoilers.
I'm really hoping for a SH3 Squad run sometime in the future, as I think it's a great one for a watchthrough and doesn't get as much Lets Play attention as 2 does. Though if they're unfamiliar, they might wanna do SH1 for context first.
24:49 I thought he was going to say, "Oh man, that's right! It was Cory 'Spazkid.' We made a battling card game out of all the cards we collected where their boob size and so on determined their power." Jesse's group is only a half-step removed from Oney's Newground crew.
I really like the idea of going back and playing old scary games. Silent hill 2 is in my backlog but haven't had time, can you guys do clock tower as well?
DUDE when I was in vegas i collected those cards from these tiny ladies who were peddling cards on the street, I brought them home, and made a binder. Best souvenir i ever collected. Too real, v relatable.
I literally just finished this game and Davis getting terrified about what button to push and then shrieking is me 100% and I will say the anger and frustration I felt at how many hits the monsters took was real... good luck gang
This game absolutely nails it in the atmospheric department. I remember playing it as a kid and I had to do it with the lights on because it freaked me out to run around that mist and darkness. This series will be a treat, for sure.
I love this Silent Hill, because unlike 1 and 3, it's not technically 'supernatural' but more based on the psychological. I know some people prefer the supernatural games, but I wish they had more sequels based on the psychological horror aspect. I believe the remake Wii edition of Silent Hill 1 was something to the effect, but I haven't played it.

This will never not make me laugh.
Eyy, Micky! Love your content, dude!
One of my favourite SGS quotes 😆. I remember the California raisins too, I'm old
I never expected to see Micky D here, and with such a reference!
Haven’t watched the video yet, but I’m stoked someone mentioned the California Raisins. You can still watch their Christmas special on RUclips!
I strongly endorse them going back and playing older games when there's not a big release like an RE or something for them to do
I mean, the second game they played was Fatal Frame so its not unprecedented.
Same. No big spooky releases come to mind untill the next Dark Pictures Anthology game, so I'm all for the squad play some older games
Yes please!
Yasss!
Siren is a good candidate. Also, Echo Night(a very dated game though).
They would put Davis in control of a guy with a dead wife while he's still on the Lady D. rebound? Nurse monsters better watch out.
Spoiler alert: Davis *IS* Pyramid Head.
Literally in the first 50 seconds he's in love with Maria. That was a very quick healing process XD
@@Starlightean If anything i think him being in love with Maria is a sign that he hasnt healed
@@Starlightean such is the alpha mindset
Rebound is one of the big themes of Silent Hill

As opposed to the new Silent Hills?

Alex is the secret sauce of the show. I can't even go back to the old episodes without him in it. It's like missing a Beatle or something

Oh damn, that's fucked
What a lovely surprise!! My favorite horror game EVER, although not as fun as SH3 and other spooky games. The true ending is real messed up but there's no need for any spoilers.
I'm really hoping for a SH3 Squad run sometime in the future, as I think it's a great one for a watchthrough and doesn't get as much Lets Play attention as 2 does. Though if they're unfamiliar, they might wanna do SH1 for context first.
@@WindOWinter Indeed.
If they tackle 3 they reaaaaally have to tackle 1 first.
This makes me so happy. Please take y'alls time with this.
The game intro music and cinematic is like Dawson's Creek meets Twin Peaks.
Rewatching the start of the game now that the final video is out
oh MY GOD ITS FINALLY HAPPENING. THEYRE PLAYING MY FAVORITE HORROR GAME
24:49 I thought he was going to say, "Oh man, that's right! It was Cory 'Spazkid.' We made a battling card game out of all the cards we collected where their boob size and so on determined their power." Jesse's group is only a half-step removed from Oney's Newground crew.
Anyone else rewatching this playthrough? :D
"WHAT IS THE BUTTON!?" The panic had me in tears.
Oh my God. Now they just need to play siren (or corpse party) and I can die happy.
I love the fanart on the sides with the squad interacting with the nurse and pyramid head
I really like the idea of going back and playing old scary games. Silent hill 2 is in my backlog but haven't had time, can you guys do clock tower as well?
Great, you guys have mentioned a few times that you should play this together! So glad.
I already need to rewatch thus playthrough
DUDE when I was in vegas i collected those cards from these tiny ladies who were peddling cards on the street, I brought them home, and made a binder. Best souvenir i ever collected. Too real, v relatable.
Great idea guys, Scary Retro Squad, I hope we see more scary retro games like this going forward, keep up the great content.
I literally just finished this game and Davis getting terrified about what button to push and then shrieking is me 100% and I will say the anger and frustration I felt at how many hits the monsters took was real... good luck gang
I've been watching Jesse for like 11 years and this was always a dream scenario for me lol. Love Silent Hill and Jesse.
This game absolutely nails it in the atmospheric department. I remember playing it as a kid and I had to do it with the lights on because it freaked me out to run around that mist and darkness.
This series will be a treat, for sure.
my excitement is immeasurable and my day is made
man the intro to this game never fails to hit me with nostalgia
Jessy: This your journey, figure it out on your own.
Also Jessy: When there are monsters nearby you can hear the radio.
Haha, love you Jessy!
well jesse letting them be aware of a game mechanic is different from influencing them making choices to impact the ending
@@lilithjade4363 youre fun
the music in this game is so beautiful. i listen to it all the time
What!!! Omg I needed this today. I've had such a bad day!
I love this Silent Hill, because unlike 1 and 3, it's not technically 'supernatural' but more based on the psychological. I know some people prefer the supernatural games, but I wish they had more sequels based on the psychological horror aspect. I believe the remake Wii edition of Silent Hill 1 was something to the effect, but I haven't played it.
