All I can say is I enjoyed this game much more than I enjoyed Silent Hill 1.

Well when Michelle and her boyfriend was fighting in the car and Harry was sitting in the back seat looking at all of this... I thought thats how Cheryl might have seen her parents fighting once and a while.

I take it it's a rather trippy one, considering this thread!

 I wonder if Dahlia is supposed to represent more than that. She's certainly portrayed as the least-likable of all the characters, which reinforces your point that she's supposed to be a stand-in for Cheryl's real mother, but at the last meeting it seems like she's trying to stall and distract Harry as much as possible. Her last text message even asks Harry to turn back, even though the lighthouse is only a short distance away. And I really doubt any boat is so slow that it would take twenty minutes to cross a lake...

 Good point, I hadn't thought of that. We know from many of the echo messages that she was listening in to her father's conversations.

Trippy doesn't even begin to descibe Paranoia Agent.  PA is one of the most messed up series made in anime and animation in general.  The latter half in particular will have you very confused with a ton of mind screw towards the end.  This series is a masterpiece in terms of the animation medium and an underappreciated one at that.

Alright, you've convinced me. I'll see if I can track it down.

Many many flaws? Yeah I read your comments on the review and while I understand what you're saying I don't agree at all. I don't mind the linearity but I agree that it's disappointing the normal world is not scary at all and the puzzles are very easy. In my opinion this is a great experience because it's a great Game.

On topic, I thought similar to what SeriousWB said, but I'm confused whether Dahlia is a representation of her mother or Harry's lover....

Anyway, I'd like to know how you get the different endings. Is it by the answers in the therapy or the mementos you collected?

I finished it twice and I haven't gotten all the mementos and got two similar but different endings. In both endings Harry says Cheryl to forget him and then freezes. But in the first one Cherly walks alone out of the clinic, and at the very end Harry appears with two girls in bed (Dahlia and Michelle).

The second time, her mother was waiting for her outside the clinic, and at the very end she was taping her parents splitting up and Harry saying they still love her and wasn't her fault.

So my question is, what do I have to do or not do to get the different endings?

Pretty much everything affects what ending you get: how you answer the therapy questions, what you look at/dial/go during gameplay, etc. Staring at stuff during the more interactive cutscenes also plays a role (and you know what I mean by "stuff" ). Basically, there's some sort of formula going on behind the scenes, and doing/not doing stuff adds points towards earning certain endings.

So what do you guys think about the UFO ending? Is it a joke or just the ultimate ending? It is certainly cooler than the UFO ending in SH1.

Both! I finally got it, and I've got to hand it to Climax. Well done!

When I got it I was blown away. The artstyle itself is pretty shocking and a great homage to the first title and its pop Japanese heritage. I laughed out loud at it. Climax earned a point from me for it.
