Plot spoilers
editWith the recent remake announced, the plot section is full of spoilers, and anyone taking information from it is gonna spoil the new game to others. It needs to be revised — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.40.165.121 (talk) 17:17, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Clean-up
editIt looks like there is at least one other person wanting to contribute. Unfortunately I removed some additions that I don't believe even come close to Wikipedia standards. The following text, added the the Trivia section:
. Believe it or not, this game has references to the Silent Hill series. In one ward in chapter 2, there is a clipboard on a table by the blood-soaked bed, the clipboard has names of the former patients before you. Most of the names, are made-up. But on the clipboard, you will find the names, James Sunderland, Eddie Dombrowski, Harry Mason, and Henry Townsend. These are some names of some of the characters in the Silent Hill series. Also, if you go to a certain room in chapter 3, there will be a piece of crumpled-up paper on a chair. It says, Congratulations Dr. Kauffman, I'm assigning you to the rank of surgion. I'm doing this because, you are the best doctor in this whole hospital. The patient you will be working on next week, has a weak heart, you have to work on it. You'll have to cut open his chest, and slice open his heart. And I don't care if he's awake while you do your work, I'm going to use him as an example to show that we can take the pain and suffering to the extreme. I hope you like heart surgery Dr. Kauffman. This is a reference to Dr. Michael Kauffman, from Silent Hill 1, and the note is a clue to sort-of tell you what the hell is going on!
This information is a good start, but it needs to be confirmed and rewritten, as is obvious, so it meets higher standards. The following was removed from the Plot section.
The survival-horror game ends with you(Dr.Redmoor?), defeating the mysterious dark-man, sending you to yet another in-game movie-like sequence. You look around a bed in the hospital to an opening door with the woman(Jane?) and the younger child. This of course fades to an operating room with the dark-man standing over a certain patient. The player finds out he has been navigating through the halls of a mere dream world. The credits roll.
This isn't enough. We can't cut from the basic premise immediately to the events at the end of the game. We can do better. If anyone who has played the game can contribute plot information it would be greatly helpful. Regardless, this portion still needs rewriting for it to be acceptable for the section.
I've also removed the screenshots from the page, for a number of reasons: 1) They were scattered around the page randomly. 2) The screenshots were a bit outdated. 3) The article isn't large enough for images to be implemented in an aesthetically pleasing manner.
If we add screens later they need to be some fresh ones. Those screens were added by me when I started the page, long before the game was released. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fragman52 (talk • contribs) 11:59, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Plot-wise I think, from playing the game myself, that it's pretty accurate. However, it is pretty long and currently stands like a brick wall so if I get the time I'll be sure to shorten and paragraph it ever so slightly.

Expansion
editAfter a long time of this article sitting idle, I've decided to do a lot of work on it to get it up to par. I've added the "Reception" section so now the article actually seems up to date. I didn't have a lot of time to write for it so please feel free to add and change things.
Some things that need to be done to expand this article:
- Gameplay section needs reworking. Anyone who has played this game or can compile information from sources should add a lot more depth to this section.
- Plot section, likewise, needs much more information. Any good writers out there played this game yet?
- Images section. Once we expand the other two we really have to work these images into the article and remove this section. Also we could use some more up-to-date and varied images.
Anything to add? I'm still new at this whole thing. --Fragman52 (talk) 13:35, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Question
editi don't know the code on chapter 7 : the main security room, please help me. They have this list of things... i just don't know how to use it —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.26.97.23 (talk) 19:41, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
This is Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia, not the free walkthrough site. Search in google for a guide. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.139.45.249 (talk) 10:22, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Chapter
editI made a chapter section on this article. Feel free to discuss —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.26.97.23 (talk) 20:02, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
Other Release Dates?
editIs this game even coming out in other areas apart from NA? I might as well import it since the DS is region free. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.139.45.249 (talk) 11:24, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
According to GameStation (UK), it is coming out, they just don't know when, with a "TBD".
More details in the Plot section
editI've played through this game time and again, and I've got the story details damn near memorized. Would that count as original research if I put those down in the plot section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Raikoh Minamoto (talk • contribs) 01:18, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, you can,I'll be happy if you did.--122.55.143.241 (talk) 14:11, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
