Trivia:

The Blue Creek apartment building in Silent Hill is a reference to the film Blue Velvet (1986). "Blue", for the movie's title; and "Creek" as a synonym for "River", for the Deep River apartments seen in the film. The apartments in the game are very similar to the look and overall layout of the Deep River apartments in the David Lynch film.

Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: Every time James is shown walking up or down stairs, his legs move the same way they would if he were walking on flat grounds.

Quotes:

Maria: James... I wanna ask you something. What if... what if you can't find Mary? What will you do?

Oh my goodness.

These games are amazing. I cannot believe somebody could come up with something so beautifully scary and entertaining. This one is the only one which doesn't have a cruelty and violence warning before you start playing. This one is so entertaining and interesting its just amazing it is so good that they come up with something so incredibly and crazily scary. I played this in the middle of the day and lots of noise around me and it still scared the hell out of me. The graphics are great along with the character design and other things like that. All the songs to the silent hill games are so good i have every one on my i pod. The openings to these games are incredible too. They have such good p.v.i or whatever they call it in the little movie things. But it as soon as you can.
