Talk:Henry Townshend

Pointless article
This article is worthless. Comments about his altruism because he helps people he encounters? This is a basic staple of any video game in the genre. The part about Henry entering the game world with no mental trauma? Bad game writing, not a personal reflection on the character.

This article should be merged into Silent Hill 4. All we even get about Henry from the game itself is that he lives in the apartment concerned. Eveything else, like the magazines he reads (wtf) is just pointless trivia.--203.201.73.154 (talk) 09:42, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Personality
The personality description on this page contains multiple statements that reflect the POV of the author. Someone with knowledge of the game needs to remove / reference them.

This is copied directly from a FAQ on GameFaqs.com. I think I may have to chop this article down to stub, or maybe find a good revert point. Xubelox 08:13, 9 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Now it's too short. Someone better add more reliable info. -- December Man 14:23, 10 July, 2006


 * I modified a small section in this paragraph that incorrectly said Henry was living in Silent Hill. 190.137.119.60 00:39, 26 September 2007 (UTC) [Alejandro Artiles] 21:39, 25 September 2007

The blues Henry Townshend
A disambig page should be added. I think a page should be linked for long time blues singer and recording artist Henry Townshend. hykos 14:20, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Rewrite may be in order
Hate to sound overly harsh, but this article could probably use a lot of editing and/or a total rewrite. While what's here isn't terrible, it lacks the information necessary to understanding more about the game itself--i.e, Henry's actions throughout the story and his relationship to Walter, Eileen, and the victims. His personality, while interesting enough, isn't very critical to the story, and it should actually probably be the least important part of this entry--Henry is not a particularly "important" character; he's simply a way for the player to go through the events of the game. Unlike James from Silent Hill 2, he has no "secrets" or dark history of import; therefore, it'd probably be better to rewrite the article. 4:33:37 CST 66.61.99.5 22:33, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
