SILENT HILL TIPS & TRICKS
Katana
Complete the game with the good ending to receive the katana. Save, and then begin the game again. Play through until reaching the first house that was entered in old Silent Hill. Go to the door that was previously locked in the hallway to find the katana. Completing the game with the good ending will also allow access to the channeling stone.
Health drink
Run all the way up Bachman Road and look on the left going north. Very close to the end/top of the road is your car with a health drink in it.
Valves in alternate school
First, in the right valve: left, left; and in the left vallve: right.
Hyper Blaster
The Hyper Blaster is obtained by unlocking the UFO ending, detailed below. REMEMBER: Channeling stone shows up on the Game Ending screen, not this weapon. The channeling stone is another possible item (in the convenience store in Next Fear mode if the game is completed with a Good+ rating). To get the UFO ending with it (and subsequently the Hyper Blaster immediately in the Next Fear mode), use the item at these locations: Old Silent Hill: On the roof of the Alternate School Alternate Central Silent Hill: Right outside the hospital before fighting the Moth/Adult Grub. Resort Area: Norman's Motel, in front of the apartments Alternate Resort Area: On the bridge of the boat. Alternate Resort Area: Roof of lighthouse.
