Talk:Pyramid Head

From Silent Hill Wiki

So most of this is just taken from the Wikipedia page, unsourced?



"He is shown strangling James, as well as using a long black tongue to finish off James." Huh, when? --153.106.4.94

He uses it during the battle in the apartment stairwell, although wiggling the left analog stick around can break his hold rather easily. Xeno the Hedgehog 05:49, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
The tongue is in this cam-hack video: [1], but I've never seen it in the actual game. Would try to check if I hadn't leant away my SH2. --Painocus 23:18, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, you can see the video on YouTube. Tongue snakes out through his helmet. Also, I'm still more convinced that Pyramid Head, while an executioner, serves more of a punisher and tormentor role with James than anything. He's obviously going to be violent, like any SH monster, and would kill James if the opportunity arose, I don't think he's actively hunting him down specifically to kill him, hence all the time he kills Maria instead. But that's just me.--Faded-Myth 02:47, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

but it is said that the real reason for the pyramid head is not to actually kill james but to make him realise his mistake and guilt also he seems to have helped him to find new areas in the game by throwing james from the roof of hospital etc so that he can finally understand he has mistaken. Pyramid head is manifestation of james guild. Inside him he feels that he desperately needs him.

All of the monsters in SH2 are manifestations of James, and they all have the power to kill James, otherwise you'd have an entire game where the protagonist never dies. AlessaGillespie 08:55, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
They all have the power to kill Maria to, despite her being a manifestation of James' mind. This probably isn't the right place to put this, but is this something worth noting? ---- Henry-Townshend

Pyramid Head's grunt

The first sound is James and the second sound is Pyramid Head. They are almost identical, which is why I think it should be included in the article. AlexShepherd 21:57, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Even though it's more likely a technical aspect that the grunts are identical, I still find the info interesting. --TheGoodman 22:02, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Shepherd, in Syphon Filter 3, Logan and Mujari have the same grunts even though their dialogue is spoken by different actors. Does that mean they are the same person? Honestly, you blow things out of proportion. At least TheGoodman didn't put that "feel the same pain" nonsense again. Thank you.

Pyramid head

Pyramid head is actually more of a protagonist, as he shows James the errors of his ways. - 050294 00:16, 9 August 2009 (UTC)


Two Pyramids

I believe that there were two Pyramid Heads from the start of the game, although until you reach the Labyrinth, it's almost impossible to determine which one you are facing at any one time. For the purposes of distinguishing the two, I shall refer to them as Rust and Scarlet, based on the color of their eggs in the game. Let's assume that Rust is the one who wielded the Great Knife. Assuming this is true, he can be found in at least three places before the final battle. Arguably the first place that he shows up is the stairwell in the Blue Creek Apartments. He later shows up on the roof of Brookhaven Hospital, and finally in the area of the Labyrinth where the Great Knife is Obtained. Scarlet is arguably the one to rape the mannequins, and is the first to wield the spear when chasing after James and Maria in the hospital. He is later found in the Labyrinth just before James climbs the ladder to Maria's cell. As for the red one that James initially encounters in the apartment, the only hypothesis I can offer is that it is the initial Pyramid head which subsequently split into Rust and Scarlet. The gallows in the room where the horseshoe is found also bear a "painting" that depicts two Pyramid Heads. Finally, when fighting the two pyramid heads at the end of the game, only one of them will be stunned by an overhead chop from the Great Knife. Your thoughts?
