This is a list my friends and I came up with whilst playing Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. Most of this is based on experience of us playing but I'm sure we are not the only ones to experience these. Tell me what you think!

Things you should not do whilst playing Silent Hill:

Do not lock your door – makes for easy escape if anything goes wrong.

Do not play with friends that have the Silent Hill movie podcast on their Ipod Touch – all it means is they have the opportunity to scare you when you least expect it.

Do not allow one of your friends to be in control when they have an obsession with the Cathouse number in Shattered Memories – the number 555-5477 will forever stick out in your memory.

Do not make cake if you are easily distracted by the happenings in the game.

Do not eat creamy food – when you jump, the filling goes everywhere.

Do not play if you are called any of the following: Harry, James, Cheryl, Dahlia, Sybil, Lisa, Mary, Marie, Heather, Alessa, Travis, Claudia, Joshua, Laura, Alex etc – it will only led to paranoia and eventual Silent Hill death.

Do not drag a photo frame across the floor to create the sound of the Great Knife to scare your friend while they're in the bathroom (try it – it actually sounds like it!)

Do not get into old abandoned lifts

Do not follow creepy children that keep running away because they will most likely led you to your death.

Do not follow shadows (unless the walkthrough says so).

DO NOT ENTER THE ICY WORLD UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES (this is a mistake most players make early on in the game).

Do not hug any strange looking creatures – they are trying to kill you!

Do not go into any shopping malls.

Do not run in circles especially if you are in the Ice World.

Do not play if you have any kind of heart conditions, suffer from pregnancy or are over the age of sixty – the company are not held responsible, you cannot sue!

Do not leave your weapon behind - you will need it later.

Do not murder your wife – she will be reincarnated by Silent Hill to be murdered over and over again in many different ways by Pyramid Head.

Do not get into strange cars – in Shattered Memories, ghosts like cars.

Do not die – very important.

AND, MOST IMPORTANTLY...

Make sure the Wii remotes are charged.
