AFAIK the only way to fix it would be to start from scratch and release a second HD collection.
Silent Hill 2 is okay still looks like a piece of crap without the fog
Silent Hill 3 is still the lagging mess which likes to freeze whenever its in the Mond.
360 Version never recieved the Patch and the problems are far worse

It doesn't.
The art direction and locations look incredible and you notice a lot more details on the characters and the areas due to the improved textures and resolution.
Though obviously there is less fog in the HD version.
how well do they run on pcsx2?
Since ZoE came out in this thread what version of the HD collection for that is best?
PS3 got a patch that fixed the more glaring frame rate problems. I'm not sure if Xbox got it.

How it runs isn't even the biggest problem about this collection, it's the huge artistic changes that were made that ruin or distort the atmosphere the most important part of any SH game.
WOOOOW.
I'm not the biggest Silent Hill guy, I loved the first one when it came out but have been largely staying away from the series ever since, this is the first time I've ever seen that.
That is FUCKING INSANE! What the hell happened? I know there was a lot being said about this release at launch but holy shit, why weren't people (figuratively) rioting in the streets? That is without a doubt the most egregious lack of attention I've seen in any kind of remaster or adaptation. Completely unacceptable.
The collection is based off unfinished code that was never supposed to be used, so patching it was like putting a band-aid on a massive head wound.

I think the most glaring issue is Konami not keeping final code on hand.I remember reading that Bluepoint for their several HD collections reverse engineered the code from the retail discs. With that in mind it's baffling that Konami/Hijinx would not do the same when they didn't have a finished code version on record.

Hire Bluepoint.
I still can't believe how terrible the lake looked. Yuck.
That can't be real.

ZOE HD was worked on by High Voltage, who have a somewhat serviceable pedigree.
It is.
