That stare at 5:18 is absolutely unbelievable. Like, good God, that is the stare of a man who just came to accept the fact that his wife not only died, but that he himself murdered her.
It's the best part of the whole game. That stare made the whole thing. It's also the way he struggles to understand it when the tape stops and you can see him trying to piece together what happened in his mind, being confused by it, and then accepting it.
I liked the framing of the camera better in the original. It was positioned very far away from James so that you as the player would feel separated from him after learning about what he did and letting the realization sit in. But all in all the remake of the scene is so amazing. The voice acting is a lot better.
@@feels5460 og made it look like its being shown from a surveilance camera while the remake showed it from different angles like a cinema. OG did it better imo
I suggest changing the title to "James finds out the truth" or something similar. I already beat the game but some people might habe your vidoe pop out on the recommend video list and get spoiled. Yes, i know its over 20 years old, so are people supposed to know everything that happened in the past 20 years?
@@egosirius it might be timed either so you can pick up ur itens, or u get to the door of the VHS room. But, it runs out if u just stand there. I know that cause i stood there enjoying the music.
Outstanding voice acting! The models and facial expressions however...could show a little more emotion to coincide with the emotional voice acting. Other than that, great game overall!
@@domgriffith6483 i don’t blame him, even tho i was born in 03 and played this back in like 2011 some new people are trying to get into silent hill and this kinda spoils the whole plot

When he killed her his mind kinda broke down, his brain created a whole another story to suppres his guilt/grief. I can't remember if it's a theory or if it's implied in the game that James killed her just some days before the start of the game and his brain warped even his sense of time.
@@Saruva_Eduardo Timeline wise he couldn't have killed her more than a few days before the game starts, cause Mary's letter to Laura wishes her a happy 8th birthday and Laura just turned 8

@@steeledclub6368 I find this scene in particular more terrifying in the original game, Mary screaming made me feel very bad.

Acting in the remake was amazing. Everybody did a great job.
Wow this definitely a change. In the original it felt more like you just have to realize he suffocated her. This one is more front and center.

3:41 the way the pillow looks like Pyramid Head is an insane detail
That was a nice emotional touch, having Laura run out of the room in tears.
I actually had a tear at that part. Laura's actress did a perfect job.
@@Emgee78 the part she told him she hated him
Hit the spot
plot twist is he either feels guilty to make him think she’s truly there or it’s all psychological & deniability of the truth until he saw the tape
That's why there are multiple endings my friend

4:21 he is just so defeated at this point. The acting is top notch in this remake!

@@pohafelps581 there are lots of people who were introduced with the remake
I like him even more.
@@0815Horst i thought she wanted to get killed by him
The acting is perfect. Wish they didn't change the original soundtrack (true , Akira Yamaoka). It kinda landed pretty hard in the original
It’s the same as the original plus more lol wym?
I love the song, i wonder what's the name.
the song name is true
too bad, the banger song should've played a little bit longer like in the og
This Scene is so dark
Spoilers alert ....
Too late i guess
