God, I don't care if SH1 is 11 years old. The game is still fresh and I still feel the same way I did when I was 16 checking out cool tidbits and references like this.

Things like this are some of the many reasons I can still play SH1 and many new games are just 'meh' to me and end up collecting dust.

I especially love the Portishead and Sonic Youth references.

Also, I've never seen the making of SH1. Only 2-4. This does make me yearn for the old days of SH.

As much as I love the new age Silent Hills, it's pretty hard to compare to the originals.

[nureintier]

Yeah, I've never fallen out of love with SH1.

[dreggnog]

Good work! Man, I will say this now and forever. SH1's graphics are better than 3, 4, Origins, Homecoming, and just pretty much every game ever except Silent Hill 2. Look at that first screenshot. It scares me just to look at it!

[Father Vincent]

All those little product names and sly references are just so much fun to spot. Just one more reason why I never, ever get tired of that game. It really is my favorite of the series.

[Tabris]

I'm pretty sure the drug PTV is a reference to the band Psychic TV too.

Wouldn't put it past them at all~
