- Recommend replaying the game because each ending is interesting and meaningful and you can miss a whole lot the first playthrough. There is a lot of depth in the silent hill 2 if you care about that kind of stuff.

- If you bump into a guy with a steel contraption on his head wielding a giant sword, it's a good idea to run and don't stop.
