Which version are you playing? I assume, 360.

Yeah it's the 360 version.

Last night I reached that scene on PS3, and the first shot (the close-up of Pyramid Head and the goils) was cut. It immediately began at the long shot behind James, just before he hides in the closet.
On the PS3 at least, it definitely is censored.

Just had someone on SHH confirm that both their 360 and their friend's PS3 copy wasn't edited. Maybe it just had a weird lag that caught up after the first two seconds from the person(s) reporting it?

i wonder if it's regional differences. do we know if that shot was censored in any regions previously? say it was cut in Europe, it's plausible that the PS3 region free disc would have that shot cut everywhere, rather than have to produce different discs for different regions. right?
I played up to that scene as well last night, and I'm pretty positive it's a loading problem. The game takes too long to fade in and part of the scene isn't visible as a result.
My god, it's just amazing how fucked up this collection is.

It's almost like they're taunting the fans.
Yep, I'm completely stunned by how bad this turned out. A huge slap in the face towards fans. There is nothing OK about this collection.
Who was responsible for the port again?

360 version here and the Pyramid Head scene has not been cut for me. The thing is there in its entirety.
I downloaded the PS3 patch last night and it did fuck all. It's still borked with shit framerates and stutters.
I bought both to have on two different sets/systems at different locations but the PS3 version is just getting sold off at this point. I don't have any confidence they'll fix it.

It's looking more like a case of loading issues than actual censorship, now.

Everytime I look in this thread I just get more and more disappointed in how this collection turned out.

Really? Just disgraceful and completely confirms everything I said about the new voicework.

Man. The PS3 version seems to be so completely broken it's debatable whether it should ever have been released or not. As it is, they might have been better off just doing the HD collection for 360 only, and putting up the PS2 versions on PSN.
If they did that PS3 owners would at least receive the best versions of the game.
It's not like the 360 is much better off, it's still a fucking shitshow.
Combichristoffersen
Combovers don't work when there is no hair
Ha, yeah. But at least both PS3 owners and 360 owners would have playable versions of the games then.
Oh, absolutely. It's still a bad port, just not quite as bad as the PS3 version.

The performance of Silent Hill 2, right at the beginning is pretty horrible. It improves shortly after, but not by much (on PS3).
SH3 performs well enough, but there's still too many instances of stuttering, and it ruins the overall presentation. They should have had these games locked at above 30fps, no compromises.

What are you referring to?
When the PS2 version came out a lot of people had trouble with the subway part, I remember my friends at school and people on the internet bitching about it.
(right after you get the shotgun)

What trouble did people have with the subway part?
Besides the part where the ghost pushes you onto the tracks
The part where you have to run past the insane cancer after getting the shotgun, then down the stairs to the bergan street platform, jump off onto the track and then run up to the door along the track, then back after you try to open the door.
I guess a lot of people didn't even know that door was there on the track and that you needed to trigger the event for the train to appear to continue.
The camera angle doesn't change unless you go right up to the very end.
I assume most people just tried to run past the insane cancer and back up the stairs instead of running past them

I had lots of goddamn trouble with it back in the day. I hope I don't have trouble this time around.
Yeah, from what I understand that was a part where many people just stopped playing the game completely.
It is confusing.
Combichristoffersen
Combovers don't work when there is no hair
Oh, yeah, that part. I can see why it would be a problem, since the game is rather obtuse about what exactly it wants the player to do there.
Yeah and that was before you could just look up a video on youtube!
I am reading a guide I printed out back in 2003 and the person who wrote it completely skips the details for that part, lol.

Yea I had trouble on that part as well. I was so confused and Actually forgot about that until now. Sadly I never did finish SH3. Stupid memory cards!
I just tweeted Jim Sterling a few times, this really needs to be brought to light.
I Tweeted Max Scoville this thread and he replied with: "ew gross NeoGAF"
Better than nothing I guess?
UPDATE:
Jim just replied to me with with: "Already on it. It's an utter farce." on twitter, hopefully he tears it a new one.
This should be confirmed, because it's a pretty big deal.
As i said, technical problems, as shameful as they are are one thing, censoring is a whole other matter.

Oh man, I abused my schools printers so much to print out huge game guides back then.
The start is clearly missing from this lets play, does seem like it's a loading issue (around 2:10)

Out of the recent batch, isn't this the only example of an actual bad one? I know people bemoan the sub-HD nature of the Jak & Daxter collection, but it sounded like everything else about it was top notch.
