Awesome Silent Hill Historical Society Glitch!

OK, so there are 53 mysteries in the entire game needed to get this trophy. This is apparently missable since you can't re-enter certain parts of the game you finished and get mysteries you may have missed in that portion. But no worries cause this glitch is here to help. :)

 

When you find each one the game just registers the amount. It doesn't care which one you get. Only that you get 53 mysteries total.

 

Now here's the cool part of the glitch.

 

1. Once you finish the Centential Building part, go back to the entrance of the Centenial building. You won't be able to enter but once you go to the door and hit X it should immediately act as if you received the Memorandum mystery the first time you enter that building. Your journal will open up and it'll go straight to that page.

 

For confirmation enter the statistics part of your options menu and confirm that one more mystery was added to your total.

 

2. Walk far enough away from the entrance that the game sort of refreshes itself. When the game starts to lag and skip frames again, that's a good indicator that you moved far enough away. If you want to be sure, going to another door at the park is easily far enough.

 

3. Return back to the entrance of the Centenial building and hit X again. It'll register another mystery.

 

4. Rinse and Repeat till you get to 53.

 

 

Edit: Glitch is confirmed. Enjoy :)

It does work, not sure if it pops the trophy or not, but I had just finished that section and when I went back, the note was on the door and when approaching it, it opened my notebook and counted it as a Mystery found. I already have the trophy, so I can't say if that means you can rinse & repeat to get it, but it did work as I went to the top of the steps over the after trying it once, went back down and it worked again.

Awesome!

 

I think this will work for everyone then since I got it this way. I just need confirmation that it's not cause my objective list is glitched.

 

I won't say for certain this is confirmed until someone actually pops a trophy with this method, but this is a good sign. :)

Confirmed to work, you can check my psn, got this trophy before getting the trophy that pops when you get to the penitentiary.

 

Nice! :D

 

I was hoping it wasn't just cause my objectives were glitched. So now that we know this works people don't have to worry about missing any mysteries. Although I do recommend trying to find them all still cause they tell a good story of Silent Hill. :)

NEVER! The second you posted this glitch all reading and collectible hunting went out the window.

This trick works, I did it a few minutes ago. In fact, I tested the distance factor for the Centennial Building entrance too. After getting another mystery added to my collection, all I did was run up the nearby steps into that adjacent park area. After reaching top, I turned around and went back to the door. That's as far as you need to go to do this trick, just keep repeating it until you get the trophy.

If it was any other game I'd agree but its silent hill and I actually enjoy its history and all the crazy type of shit that goes down

 

Agreed, however, i don't want to make it to the end and find I missed 1 mystery!!

 

You can do what I did, get the 53 mysteries trophy by using the trick above, and then just re-load, and you will be back on track without like 30 of the same mystery.

Thanks a lot Kahalachan. I hate collecting things for trophies. Totally ruins the fun of going for the platinum. Especially in Rage (if you missed the Janis card). I'm collecting all 53 because this is one of those rare games that makes it worth finding most of them. I don't really have time for it though, especially to find them all again if I missed any. Now I need to do this before they patch the game. We all know they'll probably patch that before they patch the lag issues.
