Edit: I recently discovered the channel of Max Derrat, who appears to be the originator of several fan theories I referenced in these videos. I remembered them from discussion on fan sites years ago and didn't remember who originally came up with most of them. Check out his channel and especially his video on Maria as James' anima.

Welcome to my Silent Hill 2 19th anniversary series! Also the first of the fall horror content. This is like a super-fan commentary playthrough of the game, with explanations on the game design, references to pop culture and development secrets. I start this episode by briefly summarizing the connection between the game and the classic novel, Crime and Punishment.

I mangle some pronunciations and totally drop a syllable from Aki Kaurismaki. Am ignorant.

This gameplay was captured from an original Xbox that has been soft-modded. Silent Hill 2 has been patched to display natively in widescreen and modified to have higher fog density to closer match the PC enhanced edition. This is done for fun to create a mix of original hardware capture and DIY modding. Although the game is modified and running directly from the HDD, it was made from my retail copy shown at the beginning of the video. Best I can do to make my mad science legal, leave me be.

All music is ripped from my original Xbox disc, I hope that falls under some kind of creative license. Just tryna make documentaries to inform and entertain here folks.
