I’m giving this a second shot because it just so happens the game went on sale for 65% off today! I genuinely didn't expect that so soon, so here is my second attempt at asking for help.
Since I thought I did pretty well the first time, I will share a little unrelated story for this one.
I didn't grow up with video games like most kids in the neighborhood. Almost everyone who was into video games had a PS2, and most of them played FIFA and Mortal Kombat, which I struggled greatly to like, but with no luck. However, when my cousin who lived in Germany would visit every couple of years, he would bring his Nintendo with him. Pokémon, Zelda, Metroid, and Super Mario, these games made up my childhood. My favorite by far was The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap on the gold Game Boy.
Every time he visited he brought his latest console, every single time, along with some of his old ones; I would try to play as much as possible before he left with them, so I had to subsist on the memories until he visited again.
One year, he came with both the Game Boy and his Nintendo DS. The Nintendo DS blew my mind with the dual screen. As usual, I played as much as I could, but I really spent more time on the Game Boy. So much so that when he was about to leave again, I begged him to leave it behind since he had one already. He reluctantly agreed; I'm not sure how I pulled that off.
I was so happy and content; I still think those were the best moments of my childhood. So happy, in fact, that I thought it was a good idea to bring my Game Boy to school. I knew it was very likely to be seized if any of the teachers found it, but I was confident I could be discreet enough to share it. I was in 7th grade then and very eager to flaunt this with my friends, so I brought the console along with my favorite, The Minish Cap, to class. It didn't take long before it was stolen. I knew exactly who did it, but after school was over and with absolutely zero proof, it was as good as gone.
It took me years to get over it, and I dreaded my cousin returning or having to let anyone know I didn't have it anymore, but it was a big family. No one even noticed my Game Boy was gone. I remained miserable, my only true regret to date, and eventually, my cousin visited again about 4 years later. He, too, had completely forgotten he gave me a Game Boy and brought back a 3DS this time. I didn't like it nearly as much as the DS or Game Boy; it felt gimmicky, but I was glad the Game Boy never became a problem. Then, we were back to the same old pattern: I would play as much as I could and then look forward to the next visit in a couple of years.
Eventually the guy that stole my Game Boy admitted to it, just about when I was graduating, he didn't even play it much because he didn't have the charger so it deteriorated from whatever means he used to keep it charged and eventually it became scrap. We remained enemies of course.
I'll crudely try to bring this back to Silent Hill 2 by saying Silent Hill was one of the games that filled those gaps in the years between visits and made me okay with waiting a couple more years to play Super Mario again. Now that it's on sale, I hope my chances of getting it are improved.
