I remember when this game first came out. Everyone was thick on "Resident Evil" it's all anyone ever talked about. I remember seeing a Silent hill add in game magazine I picked up. It peaked my interest at the time. Survival horror games were just starting thier popularity. I went down to my local "Funcoland"(yeah that long ago! remember them?) and picked up a copy. No one knew what Silent hill was about and at that time good luck finding something about it on the internet. All I had to go on where my whims and what the back of the case told about the game.
