Hasent anybody noticed? I've been playing SH2 lately and noticed that I didnt hear the siren once (maybe in a video) and the evil side of the Hospital & the Hotel did not change to metal, full of blood. In SH1 the siren would start while you where playing, the screen would go black then you are in the alternate world,the walls became metal grills and the floors too AND it would be ptich black outside.

In SH2 it stays with the fog (doesnt become night) and the walls and floors have the same texture, especially the hotel, heck its only raining inside, thats the ONLY difference. I am dissapointed, the metal grill walls/floors + blood made me horrified of the alternate world in SH1.

Too bad

Hmm...I think that's probably because in the first, the "alternate side" of Silent Hill was a projection from Alessa's mind, something she pulled from her nightmares. Whereas in Silent Hill 2, Alessa has nothing to do with the storyline, so it's a bit calmer. But I'm with you...I definitely missed the grated floors and bloody walls.

I think the Alternate Hotel kinda has a moldy look to it, rather gross really and its from the leakage.
