You can still get a copy with case and instructions in good condition in Japan for the equivalent of $20, and it has English text options (voices are only English in Japan too). So really no reason to pay that price.

The PC version is abandonware so you can legally download it, and theres an excellent mod that cleans everything up and makes it run well and in widescreen

What's different? It is completely playable in English if you want. I am not aware of any regional differences outside language (unlike Silent Hill 1 which had the child enemies removed in Japan).

Its a collectors thing. The us version is worth more.

Same reason a CIB copy of chrono trigger is 30 bucks from Japan, but a us copy is several hundred

But that Japanese Chrono Trigger is only playable in Japanese without modifying the cartridge or using a device that lets you use patches. The Japanese copy of Silent Hill contains the entire English text. You just choose English in the options.

wasn't aware I always discuss the IRS taking large cut of an old ps2 game you find is worth money and sell...

but fine I will expand my point to de-genericize it

basically you will make a profit but much less than expected which had you paid a little more for it and reported the cost and kept track of it and it hadn't been 7 years and you are a business etc, you would make much more profit

but the game sitting in your collection and one day becoming worth something means they take a much more of a cut

Is this site legit?

Sales history of silent hill 2. You can switch between diff categories
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/4/8/4/AAZsuhAAD-Bk.jpg

Clicked on one of the links

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/4/8/5/AAZsuhAAD-Bl.jpg

Edit: it'll still list the sale even if the game wasn't sold but the auction ended. I just clicked on a factory sealed sale for like $999. Just states the auction ended not sold. Does seem like the completed in box (not new or sealed) are selling for around $150 tho forreal
