5.0 out of 5 stars Supreme Terror
Silent Hill is one of the most frightening games ever. What you encounter is totally of the unexpected. This game has more twists and turns than any game ever. It would be easy to miss most of the games secrets. So if want to veiw this game like it was made, take a peek at the guide.

2.0 out of 5 stars the Strategy Guide is a VERY big disappointment
I was very disgusted with the prima Strategy Guide for silent hill. The book lacked the complete list of the games weapons, it did not explain what some items do, also the maps did not tell you where all the items were. Prima also did not tell you how to get the katanna or the hyper blaster and did not even mention how to get a hidden ending. So for any one that wants...

2.0 out of 5 stars Misses TOO Much, August 15, 2001
By 
Just another user "dhunno" (Wilmington, Delaware USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Silent Hill (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
I got this hoping it would help with the puzzles. Now there must be at least 2 versions of the Silent Hill game. As this book only has 199 items listed as the total. and there are actually 204 + Hidden Items.

This guide helped through some basics but had bad info too. Like the turnstile puzzle it was wrong. It was NO HELP with the piano.

And did not have full item & weapon lists. Like it did not even mention the Hammer which is like the most wicked thing in the world.

The maps were totaly excelent. But alot of stuff wasent marked. Or was labeled in the wrong place. Like the steel pipe & some ammo & drinks ect.

This book is great for maps and some tips but thats it.

It only has 2 locations for the channeling stone.

All in all this book is quite dissapointing =(

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a bad basic book, but not detailed enough., May 15, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Silent Hill (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
This book is not bad until you get to the puzzels. It cannot solve puzzels for anything. If you just wanna get through the game, its OK. But if you wanna get complicated, save your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars In a word "$#!^, well you know what I mean..., April 12, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Silent Hill (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
This book doesn't offer all the info a startegy guide should. Not to mention the fact it didn't even provide a complete list of the weapons/inventory in the game. I am utterly and bitterly disgusted with this "stategy" guide...to put it another way kids, DON'T WAIST YOUR MONEY!

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Waste Your Money, December 27, 2000
This review is from: Silent Hill (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)
I fully agree with most other reviewers. The guide for this game has got to be the worst I've ever used. I definitely have the feeling that the publishers rushed through this project. Truly a shame as the game itself is the creepiest of the survival horror genre. There are a number of items the guide misses like extra weapons, alternative areas of exploration and an alternate ending. You'd do better downloading a guide for free from one of the many gaming sites.
