To get around this you can use a gameshark code to disable the Modchip check:Ī note on the PSN versions: PS one Classics are nothing more than ISO dumps. If using a modchipped console that has no stealth. The NTSC-J version has Anti Modchip protection which produces this screen when the "KCET" logo appears: You do not want any PAL version if you want to speedrun. The Amusement Park skip was fixed in all PAL versions. (left to right: Black Label, Platinum, PlayStation Network) I've not seen any of these before or since, so it seems to be so rare that you probably don't need to worry about it, but check that line on the disc if possible when buying the game.

So you're looking for "VX131-J1 / SLPM-86192"Īs if it wasn't complicated enough, there seems to be this extremely rare hotfix version that I bought off ebay, 99.9% of the case, manual and disc are identical to V1.0 except for a bullet point after VX131-J1, make sure to check the disc very carefully, this version seems to have fixed the Amusement Park skip but has no other changes.

Here's how to tell them apart: Look very closely at the disc (not the case, because we don't know if the store or wherever you're buying from has switched discs around etc.), look very closely where the "EN" in SILENT HILL is, all three versions have unique codes: Here's where things get a little trickier, the Konami The Best version is easy to tell, it has Konami The Best on the disc of course, however the PS One Books version has gone back to the V1.0 disc design. You do not want this version if you want to speedrun (except UFO category because the run ends before the Amusement Park). Make note of the case and especially the disc. Unlike NTSC-J, the Greatest Hits version retains the glitch, all three releases are fine for speedrunning. (left to right: Black Label, Greatest Hits, PlayStation Network) For speedrunning, the latter three do not have the Amusement Park skip (using the Aglaophotis on the first Larval Stalker / ghost child that you encounter), and are not optimal for speedruns. There are 3 regions with 5 different versions of Silent Hill (NTSC-U/C, NTSC-J V1.0, NTSC-J V1.01, NTSC-J V1.1 and PAL). This is to help those of you wanting to buy the game and run it legitimately.
