Video Today is the 25th anniversary of Silent Hill 2, September 25th 2001. This is some of the most legendary CGI in video game history.

448 Upvotes

Just two weeks after 9/11 we saw the launch of one of the greatest works of horror ever conjured.

This was a follow-up to the legendary CGI featured in the first game of the franchise, Silent Hill (1999). The ethereal vibe of the first game was doubled for the second game in 2001.

Sometimes you dont know what emotion to make out of the character's faces or whether their vague expressions are deliberate or a real limitation of the technology of the time.

Silent Hill 2. 9/25/2001.
