One of the best survival horror games in history, maybe the best, this one is a classic for the PSX. This appeared some months before the retail version, used for a test by the press, or because of some leak from Konami , and it has almost no difference with the retail, except for :

-The Pipe is found on top of Midwich Street, rather than the alleyway.
-Cybil doesn't appear in the Antique Shop.
-Instead of Cybil telling Harry to go to the lake, Harry decides on his own.
-You can actually kill the children from the school
-The retail cheat codes doesnt work with it.

You can download it from here: http://www.sh.hometown.ru/steroid/Silent_Hill_beta.rar

Enjoy!

Thank you for this
Next game to play on my PSP. You can kill children in school? Finally!

This is the same as the original for me
There Cybil in the Antique Shop
The Pipe is found on top of Midwich Street
etc.

Papillo, have you tried this your own?

Is the link down? When I click it it shows only scrambled text...

Works for me tho.

Seems that I get the scrambled Russian text only if I open the link in Mozilla but it works if I open it with IE, oh well, thank you papillo
