** Even better, he's not even a character that is psychologically haunted by Silent Hill. Hunted by the cult and disturbed by the truth of what his reborn daughter really is, perhaps, but all implications were that he kicked a god's ass and was not broken for it, and this very EldritchLocation itself ''let him be'' for having the unshakeable determination to save his daughter no matter what. Though an alternate interpretation is that he defeated the very essence of the town, even if only temporarily, so it ''couldn't'' do anything to him - at least, not until [[VideoGame/SilentHill3 seventeen years later.]]

** Akira Yamaoka's scores run from [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_r2ozeKBG20 hauntingly beautiful]] to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liJfyxmzkMQ OH MY GOD MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP]].
** On that same note, this [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKwRm4SYu68 HOLY CRAP MAKE IT STOP]] song from Shattered Memories, 'The Devil's Laughter.'
** The exception to this is [=SH1=]'s soundtrack, which wasn't done by Yamaoka alone. It was done by the Konami Kukeiha Club. Doesn't stop the music from being any less awesome.
** The Shattered Memories trailer music is a cover of 'Always on my Mind'. An awesome cover that is also played during certain parts of the game.
** The opening and closing theme songs, especially those created by the holy trinity of Yamaoka/Romersa/[[MaryElizabethMcGlynn McGlynn]].
