Below are unique items that fall in the promotional category and were not for sale on their own. Many were either given as an intensive to pre order a game, swag given by Konami booth during trade shows/conventions/events or perks given to the press to help promote the Silent Hill games or motion picture.

(1999) PSX

Silent Hill Program Guide (JPN)
Product: Program Guide
Released: 1998 in Japan
Catalogue #: N/A
Purchased: USED, May 2009
Where: ebay.com

An 18 page Japanese promotional booklet featuring screen caps and cgi images and text from the Silent Hill game. The cover shows an image of Dahlia and and the back contains a quote in English:

“If destiny interferes with reality, one man’s determination may merely be what is determined by his fate.”

This cover image and quote are also be found on the Japanese Retail poster.

This book is completely in Japanese and I haven’t found a translation or any additional documentation on it online. I assume it was given away in promotion of the game in stores or at a gaming convention like the Tokyo Game Show since it has a “not for resale” message on it. If any one has more information please shoot me an email!

Here what I *think* it contains based on a few English headers and pictures:

– Story overview
– Silent Hill staff information
– Character Profiles
– Game release information
– Game tips
– Game credits
