Even though Silent Hill 2 was released in 2001, its devoted fanbase is just as enthusiastic about the game today, 21 years later. Compared to previous survival horror games like Resident Evil, this one strongly emphasizes psychological horror and environment design. There were a lot of intriguing backstories to discover in Silent Hill 2, from the threateningly complicated enemy Pyramid Head to the quiet and mysterious protagonist James Sunderland.

In honor of the 10th anniversary of Konami’s classic horror game, Silent Hill 2, GameSpot has published a video showcasing the motion capture technology used in the game and many others. Using the sophisticated motion capture technology of 2001, the performers can be seen in the footage, acting out scenes with James and other characters like Maria and Laura. It’s fascinating to see how far video game capture has come in the past two decades, as evidenced by the striking similarities between the real-life actions of the actors and what Silent Hill 2 players have experienced countless times.

Despite the lack of information, Silent Hill’s devoted fan base continues to hope for the series’ return. Even after twenty years and many improvements in game creation, the original Silent Hill games still have an incredible impact.
