I gotta say that sailor costume is pretty weird but the powers she has with it pack a big punch.

Yeah, Silent Hill 3 sure did slather on the extra stuff and easter eggs, didn't it? I also thought that, overall, it had the best sense of humor of the series, although I don't think anything will ever top Silent Hill 2's Dog ending.
A nice wrap-up to Silent Hill 3. Well done!

The countdown to the Silent Hill 4 review is on.
Awesome job on the review, Dena. Those special items at the end were hillarious.

episode was too short!!!
should of went further into detail with valtiel, like with his seal of metatron tattooes. Or the fact that not only is he there to watch over heather, but to also prepare the world for god. Thats why you see him scraping (cleaning) nurses up agains that grate wall in the alternate church. Or why hes always turning pipes. (supposidly fine tuning them)
Or how the god has alessas face. Or the highly debated ending of what heather actually sees when she looks over her shoulder after killing the god.
Just could of been more.

This is one point in the game that, I suppose, could be wildly open to interpretation. I actually would have loved to have heard Dena's thoughts on this, but she did say that she purposefully left out some big things, and this
may have been one of them.

Ahahaha, nice SH4 reference at the end. Can't wait for that episode.
Are you also gonna do SH: 0rigins and SH: Homecoming (and maybe, Shattered Memories too)

The Game Den is NOT a Silent Hill 101 class.
I talk about the aspects that I WANT to cover--everything else people need to find out themselves when they play the game, or else they can do the research. If I covered every little detail of every Silent Hill game, I may as well toss out the idea of ever talking about any other games because that's all I'd ever have time for.

Nice conclusion! And you already gave a teaser for your next review next year, hahah!Its an entirely good review of Silent Hill 3. Yeah, you really didn't spoiled much here but that's really okay. We really have to see the game on our own, I guess
Thank you very much for the review!

I await SH4 next year!!
Really hope you end up doing all the games as the years go by, even the ones you didn't seem to like, Origins and Homecoming.

I WON'T BE ABLE TO WAIT THAT LONG FOR SILENT HILL 4 :O NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11.07.2009 - 09:49 | Cyborcat - re:
A Linkara ending would have been funny =P But I wanted it Silent Hill 4 themed for obvious reasons.

yeh - Too bad it will take a year - It is one year before I will find any reasons to play the damned thing. It HAS cool stuff, but the uncool stuff (mainly control... and ghosts... and the hecking control once more!) make me really not want to play it. - Mostly I would be happy if there was no forced "2D control" scheme - It really sucks the feeling of control, when character sometimes just does not turn. And It is still unclear to me how it saves, does it save automatically? Mine were nowhere when I tried to continue after returning to room.
To me, I can see why the room was the downfall, it seems to have interesting story, but behind it I want to hear the story of developers' "how we pootched the control this bad" -story

You shaking off the still frame effects was so funny to me for some reason.
-
11.07.2009 - 01:18 | vid3oman64
AGH! SHE ACTUALLY MOVED!
I swear, I will have to play Silent Hill at some point.

Just so You know Silent Hill 4: The Room is based on a true story. There actually was an incident where the ghost of Mitch Hedberg trapped Dimitri Martin in his apartment for five days.

Could have been inspired by that story, but it's inspired by other things as well.
I've never heard of that, tho--I'll have to remember to look it up when the time comes.

Sailor Moon, woo-hoo! Sailor Moon is the best, what with the magic wands and short skirts! Yes!
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go barf.
It seems the developers went a little crazy putting in crazyass special weapons and outfits in this game. Put Heather in that girly outfit, and it's like putting a Powerpuff Girl in a Castlevania game.
-
11.07.2009 - 02:05 | MerlintheSage
But eyeshot. for some odd reason that sounds cool. hmm powerpuff girls in castlevania would be so cool. and man i love these reviews. grr. only if i had enough money for a ps2. i am working on it. i did play a bit of silent hill one and watched some gameplay of silent hill 2. but sadly no ps2. and out of all the games 3 does look like the one i would like to play more.

Heather's sailor suit costume is a riot. If you hold down the attack button, she shoots eye lasers. They tire her out really quickly, but they hit like a truck.

Thanks for the Silent Hill stuff. These videos have been some of my favourite work from this site.

There ya go Dena's as sick as I am she even zoomed in on Douglas in his boxers.
I really can't believe Dena brought BoxHead back. Though he is great and the WHOLE reason this series 'pwns'.
Yeah running around as Sailor Heather with a lightsaber is just awesome, though the play through like that obviously will change the 'atmosfear' feel. Just like DOUGLAS IN HIS BOXERS!!! YOU WILL NEVER FORGET IT!
That damn Linkara, he just loves locking doors...

Damn it, Phelous! I HAD forgotten! It took me 3 subsequent Silent Hill games but I DID IT! Then you had to go and put it all in BIG BOLD LETTERS!
I swear man, 50+ years old guy who dresses like a sexual predator stalking a 17 year old girl is infinitely more scary than anything Silent Hill can ever come up with...
-
11.07.2009 - 06:42 | Lokiholic
I wouldn't be surprised if the Sexy Beam is a reference to Mari Yaguchi's line in Love Machine, like Alucard'sQuest said.
I find the Sailor Heather outfit to be quite entertaining. When I first saw the word 'sailor' in the comments, I was worried that it would be a sailor suit as in the normal junior high school girl's school uniform in Japan. Somehow the Sailor Moon reference isn't quite as scary to me.

Ah, all good things must come to an end...
First off, Dena, thanks for doing this series of vids on my favourite Silent Hill game. For me, Silent Hill will always be about a father's desperate search for his daughter in a fog-haunted town and her return there 17 years later.
Nothing much else to add, only that Silent Hill 3 was the first game I've played that made me work extra hard for the fucked-up ending. THAT was weird. Probably this is something you left out on purpose so I'm not going into details.
Fangs for a great month and looking forward eagerly to your next vid!

11.07.2009 - 11:32 | PirateFTCaptain - Very nice.
I love these Silent Hill videos, and I thought the hint at the next set you're doing was hilarious. Keep it up!

Kinda disappointed that the UFO ending didn't make an appearance, mostly because I love that damn song.
Also, were there more than 3 endings, because that's all I ever got.
-
11.07.2009 - 11:45 | Yukira - Yes, Valtiel.
That guy creeped me out to no end the first time through. It was so awkward.
But I had no idea those were the bodies of Alessa and... well, the other one, I forgot the name.
But the beam saber was awesome.
-
11.07.2009 - 12:26 | ThatKidinTheBlack - Thanks
Thanks for doing this show I really like it. I think I need to play Silent Hill 3 now. Your kitty backround for your comp is cool. I like creepy stuff like this. Anyway thanks
PS What the hell is up with the sailor moon outfit
pSS I cant believe i have to wait till next october to see silent hill 4
