This cheat will explain how to get each and every ending in Silent Hill 2
| In Water |
In order to get the 'In Water' ending the following must be accomplished [note that you don't need to do every single thing mentioned here] but each one you do will increase the chances of getting this ending, which is actually quite easy to get.First of all, throughout the entire game,the more time you spend with low to mid health,the better chance you have of getting this ending.Every once in awhile go into your inventory and examine the
Angela's Knife as well.Read the
diary on top of the hospital, as well as listen to the
headphones in the hotel. The final thing to do is stand in the final hallway while the conversation with Mary plays out, do not leave until it is over.
| Leave |
The 'Leave' ending is pretty much the default ending you will get if you just play through normally,which makes it pretty easy to get.Make sure you go in the direction of the hotel when Maria first starts following you around.Do
not examine the
diary on top of the hospital or listen to the
headphones,but do
listen to the conversation in the final hallway. If you ever get hurt during the game,access your menu and heal your wounds immediately.
| Maria |
This is the hardest ending to obtain, as it takes the most work from the player. It mostly revolves around your actions when Maria is with you,never try and go in the wrong direction in town,head toward the hotel,then the bowling alley.Never let Maria get hit by enemies,or by you.When you drop her off in the patient ward in the hospital,make sure you stay with her for some time,then make a number of return visits to check on her.Run all the way to the end of the hall at the end of the game and ignore the conversation,and try
not to do any of the major factors for the other endings,like examining
Angela's Knife.
| Rebirth |
The "Rebirth" ending can only be acquired after you've completed the game at least once,it involves collecting
four items you'll find throughout the game,this is the only condition and you will guarantee this ending if you pick them all up.It's not hard to get if you know where to look.The locations are as follows:
White Chrism is in Room 105 of the Blue Creek Apartments,
Lost Memories is in the newspaper dispenser at the Texxon Gas Station,
Obsidian Goblet is in a smashed glass case in the Historical Society,and the
Crimson Ceremonies is on the bookshelf in the reading room of the alternate hotel.Now just go and beat the game.
| Dog |
You cannot get the 'Dog' ending until you have gotten all three basic endings,or the 'Rebirth ending'.When you go out the West exit of the Rosewater park for the first time,head South into a little area with a doghouse that only appears if the ending conditions are met,get the
Dog Key from inside.Now play the game as far as Room 312 in the Hotel,after watching the video on the VCR, the ending will trigger automatically.[Note this is not a
serious ending, don't play through expecting one.]
