I completed this game after 17 years. And It was awsome. It's more than I can say of some actual games. This is unique. I played when I was a child but... I couldn't finish it.
Personally I like the Bad- ending the most, even though it's not canon. Maybe because I had it on my first playthrough, but it also seems so fitting and the image of dead (or dying) Harry in the car crash is really haunting..
I got that on my first play through too, I was a little disappointed bc I was trying to avoid it lol I don’t mind that I got it though still a fine ending like you said 😌
You know what I just realized about the bad ending ? This whole dream he had in the bad ending is a combination of death drawing ever closer to him, his perspective of his marriage with Dhalia, maybe memories mixed up with wishes related to an unborn biological child of theirs (Alessa), memories of the abuse and bullying he might have suffered when he was at school and how the paradise promised to him by both his marriage and Cheryl's adoption ended up being a continuation of his Hell. If my theory is correct, then that other theory saying that all of the tapes at the endings of "Shattered Memories" are canon is true too, because this dream Harry had is to represent his perspective of his own life up until now.
guys pls, read desc :) i was wondering the same until i read the description, it's on another one of his videos, entitled "silent hill 1-13 final boss"
One ending that I think would be really cool but really depressing is if Harry was unconscious and all the events that happened were in his head. Then he wakes up and sees Cheryl in the passenger seat dead because of the crash. Then Harry sits there and weeps because his daughter is dead and feels it’s his fault that she’s dead. He goes on with his life in sorrow and guilt because of the death of Cheryl. It would have been a really sad ending, but a good one at the same time.
I just finished the game. When I was a child, I got the good ending. Now, replaying it, even though I thought I was being even more thorough than before, I ended up getting the bad ending. Argh!
And yet, if you think about it, the Aliens turned out to be a decent bunch of guys. They gave Harry a laser gun, and destroyed Silent Hill for Cheryl in the third game.
The first time I played, I killed Cybil on that sinister carousel, I think I did something wrong, I don't know if I could save her. The end of the game Harry was running away with Cheryl.(2:29)
+Daniel de Almeida To save Cybil, you have to get a plastic bottle from the kitchen in the hospital, then use it to suck up some of the red liquid in the director's office. When you get to Cybil on the carousel, instead of fighting her, use the liquid on her.
@@LuciusC It doesn't, I think. Make sure that Cybill wastes all her ammo first before using the liquid on her (there's a small video when that happens).
@@gigggla bro you gotta be dumb to use that amount of time to complete this game, it's a 10h game (at least it's the time I took to finish this game because of the game overs), the second playthrough should be less than 4h.
so when in the bad ending we see that harry died in the car crash, so according to that, could he be in the real world ?? i mean in the peaceful touristic little town dimension of the village
Amo questi giochi che hanno i finali alternativi. Ancora non mi sento pronta a giocare a Silent Hill. Ho paura di avere un attacco di adrenalina tale da non dormire per giorni
It's basically like Jacobs Ladder. A dream while he was unconscious and the world collapsing over him meant he was dead. What I mean is that he died moments after the accident.
... No I'm pretty sure he was dead. Or he committed suicide. You know after losing his daughter. Who was like, the only person he had left. You never know.
THOUGHTS:i thought i can save lisa by using the drugs found in a locker. i thought i can avoid the doctor from getting in ,in the motel, so that he cannot grab the blood in the bottle(i forgot).
lmaoo what if like u get the UFO ending but once they take harry away, u see cheryl looking for his dad too and then a sequel in which cheryl ended up in space or in another planet searching for his dad..
most players get the bad ending if you missed out getting the blood bag in the hospital, or if you use the blood bag to feed the monster in hospital, cause you need it to beat Cybil when she's possessed in the carnival, you will not kill her when you use the blood bag on her giving you the good ending.
Er, no, it's not the blood bag you give her, it's the plastic bottle containing the red liquid from the Director's office. I just finished the game for the first time yesterday. I missed filling the bottle, but I still got the Good- ending because I did the Kaufmann side quest with the motorbike.
Watching this, I realized something - The Birthed God's body (from SH3) is identical to Samael's here. I shouldn't be surprised, after all they are the same... entity. I'm hesitate to call that thing a god. But, I love the attention to continuity.
Wonder what happened to Cybill afterwards? I mean, SH3 proves Harry saved Alessa/Cheryl/Heather, so it's possible he saved Cybill too. But there's no reference to her anywhere later.
@@taroupriapus5202 Where is it confirmed? I mean, it's not like Cybill and Harry were lovers, so there was no reason she would have been part of their lives. So her not being mentioned by Heather doesn't necessarily mean she's dead.
@@Aivottaja here's the article silenthill.fandom.com/wiki/Cybil_Bennett In Silent Hill: Homecoming, Deputy Wheelertells Alex Shepherd and Elle Holloway that a female police officer from Brahms disappeared when she went to Silent Hill. The only evidence left of her was her motorcycle, which was found crashed on the road to Silent Hill. It is heavily implied this was Cybill. When asked if Cybil was dead, developer Masahiro Ito bluntly responded, "Yes, I remember Cybil is dead." When asked the meaning of Owaku's statement, he replied, "If you choose 'good+' ending among them, she is not dead, maybe." Director Keiichiro Toyama, who left Team Silentafter Silent Hill and was not involved with latter entries, initially stated that he intended the "Good" ending to be the true ending, and he believes Owaku developed Silent Hill 3around the first game's "Good" ending. However, Toyama changed his mind and also considers the "Good+" ending to be "a true ending".
@@Aivottaja I don't think they've ever explained what happen to Cybil. Silent Hill 3 kinda left Cybil's fate ambiguous. Maybe she just moved on? I mean you would think maybe she would have heard the news about the cult stalking Harry and his child, and maybe wanted to get him some protection. But no, I guess the developers forgot about her.
can someone explain to me where that girl dragged him at 2:10? with the bad plus ending, with Cybil slapping him, was she still possessed? She was moving kinda funny.
bad ending should be the real..considering is based on jacobs ladder and in the movie its bad ending, spoiler: guy died in war and the whole movie is his alucination in coma. epic btw
The UFO was such a awful ending for him to have... I can't even imagine what kind of terrible life is waiting for him. Maybe they'll make him their s*xslave WTF xD
Actually the Good- ending is the canon one, according to Silent Hill 3. Good+ is the "best" ending, but it's not the true ending since Cybil does not make it out alive.
How do you know she doesn't survive? It't not known what happens to her, so both GOOD+ and GOOD can be canon. However, Keiichiro Toyama had the GOOD ending in mind when he wrote the story, but in 2012 when he was asked by fans on Twitter what ending he considers canon, he said for him the true ending is GOOD+. alchemillahospital.net/keichiro-toyama-on-the-true-ending-of-sh1/
Thing is, if we consider the Good+ ending "canon", *a lot of things don't make sense*. I always thought that "Good +" was an "extra" ending to reward those who replayed the game, because story-wise, Harry has literally no reason to throw a weird substance he just "happened to find" that, at first glance, wasn't important to him to begin with (thus he had no reason to pick it up), and never used up until that point at a woman that's trying to kill him, for multiples reasons: a)The damn could be corrosive, thus it can kill her by *literally* burning her face if he isn't going down that route (you don't need to be an expert in Chemistry to know that substances are corrosive and dangerous to human skin). b)He _literally_ has no reason to use it, because he's been holding up until that point a substance that nobody knows what it does. So, that thing can be as useful as spitting on her, or as said in point a, could end up killing her (which, again, there are *more better alternatives if you're going the non-lethal route*). Heck, it could even make Cybil stronger/enraged in the worst case scenario. c)He's in a state of panic. Let's be honest here, who would throw a bottle holding a weird substance to defend themselves while your life is hanging in the line, when you probably have a damn gun in your hands? Unless Harry looked up on a guide on the Internet and learned about how to save Cybil, he shouldn't have used a random substance he just happened to find *by "chance"* on a woman that's shooting at him with a _gun_. Heck, not even us, the players, were able to get the "Good ending +" without replaying the game or looking up at some random guide on the internet (let's be honest here, please. *Chances for getting said ending without getting spoiled and playing for the first time is below 1%*). It's just outside of human's common sense, and illogical.
+lorenzo romano "I always thought that "Good +" was an "extra" ending to reward those who replayed the game" I would agree with that, yeah. And this is also what Toyama had in mind when he wrote the story. GOOD+ was supposed to be more like an extra (he called it "a game’s game") and thought it will be discovered within few weeks at least. To his surprise it was discovered immediately.

So yeah, while in theory both endings would work, I guess if you want to be really technical and use logic while also considering the writer's personal idea (at the time the game was made!), GOOD makes more sense. I think it's still nice to have this bit of mystery when it comes to Cybil, making the player use his own mind without having something set it stone that wouldn't leave any room for imagination. It's even more effective in Silent Hill 2, where there is also no official canon ending and basically any ending would work.
symphony137 I wouldn't mind if "Good +" was the "canon" ending, it's just that, if we take it as canon, then the whole story falls apart, because Good + itself is a bloody mess for the previous point mentioned. Some years ago, there was a discussion about the "canon" ending for the original Silent Hill in a Silent Hill forum (I believe it's called SH Heaven), which explained why Good + ending couldn't work in theory (and debunked the possibility of "time loops" in SH 1), and it should be considered (in my opinion) a "joke" ending like UFO.
I've aways wondered if cybil really escaped with Harry or Harry really killed her. Think about a whole game made about her after all this time. We need one bad.
i like to remember konami when was making awesome games like this and no the disgusting shitty ass companie that is today makes me sad we might never see gems like this one :(
Imagine being a guy going through his first playthrough and getting the UFO ending lmao
is impossible, you have to complete the game at least once to get the ufo ending

this explains why harry in the SH3 UFO ending talks like an alien...because he is an alien!
Short black hair

The end of the good- ending is funny. Harry just looks around like WTF and looks up at the player like "Okay, what do I do now?"
Bad- ending was the best. It all turned out to be the last hallucinations of a dying man.

omg Cheryl voice was soooo cuuute when she said ( goodbye )
Really? Overall I thought this game had bad voice acting.
the voices are alright but the way they deliver the dialogue is cheesey like resident evil
Recon SS She said Gubai ... not goodbye ... just a joke ...
I laughed so hard when I heard it the first time
When she said goodbye daddy that broke my heart... Because it reminded me of my own daughter 😢
Wheres your +good ending.. That ending was running with cybil
Killing time silent hill
It's missing here it seems. Killing Time is the song for GOOD, not GOOD+.

Man you’ve must of really explored the hell out of the game to get the good ending , in jealous !
The very first time i played this i got the Good- ending. Picking up the potion to save Cybil can be very easily missed.
The UFO ending is like the dance sceen in Spider Man 3. Fortunately its only optional as it would have otherwise killed the fanchise.
Someone misspelled joke.
And yet, if you think about it, the Aliens turned out to be a decent bunch of guys. They gave Harry a laser gun, and destroyed Silent Hill for Cheryl in the third game.

Some years ago, there was a discussion about the "canon" ending for the original Silent Hill in a Silent Hill forum (I believe it's called SH Heaven), which explained why Good + ending couldn't work in theory (and debunked the possibility of "time loops" in SH 1), and it should be considered (in my opinion) a "joke" ending like UFO.
Lisa climbed out of thin air O_o
I've aways wondered if cybil really escaped with Harry or Harry really killed her. Think about a whole game made about her after all this time. We need one bad.
I personally think she dead.
i like to remember konami when was making awesome games like this and no the disgusting shitty ass companie that is today
makes me sad we might never see gems like this one :(
This game was definitely not a gem :D Second SH can be called so - it is quite good. But the first game is not even good
@ya skirt. no lol
@ya skirt. gotcha. Tell me more, pls
They were a shitty company back then too lol
I know I'm 8 years late but what the music's name in 1:48.
Edit : I found it , the track’s name is “Life” for anyone who was wondering like me before.
Papa oso estaria orgulloso
Are you serious with that ufo ending?
I got the bad- ending :(
Because you killed Cybil and didn't save Kaufman.
What's with the UFO ending. It became a sci-fi awith that
What the song playing in the first ending? It sounds peaceful
Killing time silent hill
+Seth Stickler but I'm talking about the song when you meet the angel who gives you the baby
It doesn't have any official name because this song wasn't released on the soundtrack.
symphony137 oh ok
Bad-ending is bad they both dont die in they car crush harry has a dream but the car crash killed him
Why the fuck in any game with multiple endings i always get the worst 1!?
I feel you...
@5:31 why the horn 🤔
Me:Silent Hill+ getting bad ending =No silent hill 3.
Konami: Yea well that isn't canon so we made silent hill 3 anyways.
Me:But Why?.
Konami:💰 🤑💰
What I don't get about the Car crash ending is, why does doing certain actions mean if it was all a dream or if it was real, like wtf
