* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: VideoGame/SilentHillDownpour. Though James notes that the game was considered one of the worst due to its broken launch he considers it the best of the Western developed Silent Hill games. He praises the game for trying to be more original with a better story and more scares. Though he finds most of the enemies uninteresting he does praise the Bogeyman for being its own creation and not a Pyramid Head rehash.

* UncannyValley: During the Siren retrospective he has a long discussion about how well the games use this trope. The overly expressive rudimentary motion captured faces on top of primitive character models are used to great effect to make the game unsettling. Forbidden Siren 2 especially utilizes this trope well with its use of enlarged heads and faces where they shouldn't be, both utilizing the same choppy motion capture.
