Seit ich das game gekauft habe zu begin, habe ich es nie geschafft alle zu sehen. Aber durch Xploder Codes kann man sich abhilfe schaffen. Wenn man kein richtiger Hardcore zocker ist.

Ending (1) Maria

You'll need to make sure you go wherever Maria tells you to go
and make sure she doesn't get hurt too much. When you make it to
West South Vale, make certain you spend a good amount of time
with he, especially before the hospital. Once she is left in the
hospital room, check in on her the odd time. When you leave the
cell in the Labyrinth, try to go back in it. Just before the
final boss in the long corridor, don't stick around to listen to
the dialogue.

Ending (2) Rebirth

The only way to get this ending is if you get all the four items
available the second time you play the game. These are, the
books ('Lost Memories' and 'Crimson Ceremony') the White Chrism
and the Obsidian Goblet.

Ending (3) In Water

Examine Angela's knife. Read the diary on the roof of the
hospital. Make sure you listen to the whole conversation over
the headphones in the hotel. Listen to the whole conversation
with Marie before the final boss. (if you don't hear a
conversation you get the ending)

Ending (4) Leave

Keep healthy and try not to fight many enemies and not get hit.
When you first meet Maria don't make her remind you of the way
to the hotel. Don't go east after leaving the park either. Hit
Maria with the wooden plank two or three times. Examine both the
picture and letter from Maria in your inventory. When you meet
Maria in park, get her to the room which makes her feel ill in
the hospital (S3 Room). The less time spent with this woman the
better. Again, listen to the long conversation at the end before
the boss.

Ending (5) The Dog

This is like a special, fun ending. Very silly indeed. You need
to get either the Maria, In Water and Leave endings or the
Rebirth ending to unlock the dog key. Then get the key from the
doghouse near Jacks Inn and use it in the alternate hotel after
you have watched the videotape to enter the Observation Room on
the third floor.

SPOILER!!!

Leave: This ending in the game is acquired by the player and James essentially showing a will to live (healing injuries quickly, etc.), and showing remorse for your actions and a dedication to finding Mary (constantly examining Mary's picture, ignoring Maria, etc.). After the final battle with the demon Maria, James is seen with his wife Mary at her bedside, Mary forgives James and they have one last heartfelt goodbye. He is then shown leaving the town, tracing a path through the graveyard with Laura, while Mary's full letter is read aloud in which she says that James made her happy and he should move on with his life. This ending implies that James really loved Mary despite the pain brought by her severe illness, and has enacted her wish in adopting Laura. This is supposedly the 'best' ending as James has learned from his mistakes and has carried out Mary's final wish of adopting Laura and leaving to start a new life.
Maria: To get this ending, the player must make James seem rather attached to Maria, and not Mary. This includes checking up on Maria constantly and not letting her get hurt much. It also involves completely ignoring Mary's speech near the end. After the game is complete James is seen leaving Silent Hill with Maria, but Maria pauses to cough a few times, suggesting that James has learned nothing from his experiences in Silent Hill and that the whole thing might happen again someday when Maria's sickness gets worse.
In Water: After examining Angela's knife often,spending long periods of time with low health, reading the suicide diary on the roof of Brookhaven hospital and examining the message to James in Neely's bar, the In Water ending is activated. In this ending James carries Mary's body out to his car and drives into the lake, killing himself.
Rebirth: After completing the game once, new items appear in various locations. These items are called: White Chrism, Book Of Lost Memories, Obsidian Goblet, Book of Crimson Ceremony. Once you obtain all of these items and beat the game it will activate this ending. In it, James rows to the center of Toluca lake, to what appears to be a church, and the screen blacks out with a voice-over of James talking about "the old gods" still being alive. It is speculated that he performs The Crimson Ceremony to try to bring Mary back to life.
UFO: Just like the first Silent Hill game, the second has a UFO ending as well (this is only included in the 'alternate version' of the game detailed above). After completing a task similar to the one required of the first game's UFO ending, a UFO lands in front of James and, not only do aliens come out, but the first game's protagonist, Harry Mason, does as well. Harry and James swap questions about their lost loved ones and James is zapped and taken aboard the spacecraft. This ending is set up as a grainey black and white silent film. Dialogue is set up using intertitles and the sound is slow to react to the action, suggesting a live performance (such was the tradition of the silent film).
"DOG": After completing the game at least once, a Dog Key item becomes available. If you obtain this key, it can be used to unlock a particular room in the final area of the game. Inside is a small dog standing on a stool at a kitschy computer console. James drops to his knees in anguish and exclaims, "So you're behind all this!" in Japanese. The dog then comes over and licks his face. A song consisting of pitched dog barks plays as the credits roll, accompanied by various humorous images of the game's characters, including a picture of maria in lingerie, complete with a sexual moan at the end.

SPOILER ENDE


Das "In Water"-Ending wird als das offizielle und auch am meisten Sinn machende Ende angesehen. Hatte es beim ersten Durchspielen und empfand es persönlich als das beste, eben weil es diesen "Aha"-Effekt hat und total stimmig ist. Sollte es eine Filmfortsetzung geben und würde man als Ausgangspunkt Silent Hill 2 nehmen (welches sich verdammt super als Film machen würde), wäre dieses Ende auch das Passendste. Hat so ein bisschen was von Lynch ;)

danke, das hört sich doch schonmal ganz brauchbar an.

wer hat lust, mit mir zusammen SH 2 einwenig zu interpretieren? ist ja doch nicht ganz einfach zu verstehen und bei weitem nicht alles ist so durchsichtig wie erst erwartet gestaltet.

Hatte auch das Wasserende (wie wohl fast jeder beim ersten Durchgang) und habe es so interpretiert, dass das Geschehene eine Art Verarbeitung der Ereignisse mit seiner Frau sind, bzw. er alles beim Sterben nochmal durchlebt, nur eben in Silent Hill. Er ist also irgendwo ins Wasser gefahren, vielleicht sogar Unfall, und auf dem Weg ins Jenseits verarbeitet er das Geschehene und Phantasiert sich dabei Silent Hill zusammen. Was Symbolische Darstellungen angeht, kann ich mir aus manchen Charakteren allerdings keinen Reim machen, wie z. B. dieser eine dicke Kerl, weiss den Namen grad nicht mehr, aber irgendwie hatte er, soweit ich mich erinnern kann, keine wirkliche Bedeutung.
Trotzdem war die Begegnung mit der roten Pyramide einfach der Hammer, hatte schon lang kein Herzrasen mehr wie damals :D

Hier sind 2 links, die sich sehr ausführlich mit Monstern, Enden und Charakteren beschäftigen. Einiges scheint wirklich überzeugend zu sein.

Habe Beide vor langer Zeit mit großem Interesse durchgelesen, kann sie nur weiterempfehlen.

Achtung, Englischkenntnisse benötigt ^^

das hier und das da

enjoy
