I have just completed my second run through the game, and - again - got the "Love Lost" ending, albeit with a slightly different prelude. 
 
SPOILERS FOLLOW. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. I WILL DESCRIBE EACH ENDING VERSION IN DETAIL.
 
 
 
 ----
 
 
 
 
So, which ending combination did you get, and did you feel that it was a fitting conclusion to the story? There are three different preludes (that I know of) and five different endings(videotapes), but I will exclude the UFO ending, as nobody will get that the first time around. 
 

Prelude - Bad+

Prelude - Good

Prelude - Bad

ENDING 1 - LOVE LOST

ENDING 2 - DRUNK DAD

ENDING 3 - SLEAZE AND SIRENS

ENDING 4 - WICKED AND WEAK

hey the UFO one is awesome I laughed so hard seeing it

So which one of these endings was the amazing one that Brad was talking about because none of them seem as crazy as he made out.

I watched my brother play. He got the good ending, but couldn't remember a videotape...
For him Cheryl leaves Dr. K's office and meets a female (possibly her girlfriend?) and they walk away into the darkness or something like that.
This could totally be for everyone though. I just don't remember there being a videotape sequence. (Maybe there was and I just forgot.)

You got it all wrong. If Harry DOES NOT freeze and shatter, it's the worst ending. Cheryl does not thank him for being with her, she just stays delusional about her father's death, refusing to believe that he wasn't a supernatural, flawless knight in shining armor, making the sessions pointless (he even says "I'm not even a ghost"). The "Good+" ending is when Harry says that he'll always be with Cheryl and then disappears, because that means that his daughter finally came to terms with his death.

Oh that's right! We saw Cheryl leaving the clinic with Dahlia in my first playthrough as well. Interesting. I wonder what determines whether you see that part or not?
 
But there had to have been a tape, there is always a tape at the end, showing a side of Harry / her parents that Cheryl didn't want to see. Either Harry being drunk, or cheating, or parting with his wife, or being a failure.

" So which one of these endings was the amazing one that Brad was talking about because none of them seem as crazy as he made out. "

Ghostiest: I thought about that as well. I guess the "bad" effect of that particular version of their encounter was lessened by the fact that the "love lost" tape  followed.

I got the Good and Love Lost ending on my first play-through. I started my second run, but I wish I would have answered the questions at the first counseling session different, oh well, looks like I'll finish the second and go for a third.
 
The final analysis of me was pretty good, but I played it safe during the game. At the end of the analysis, it was noted that the patient should restart therapy from the beginning.
 
I was very satisfied by the ending, but even knowing the story, I still felt compelled to journey back into the game. That's a rarity for me.

I just beat it moments ago, and had to write about it somewhere.  I got the Good prelude, and Love Lost ending.  The assessment at the end couldn't have been more scarily close.  A few parts were off a bit but oh my god, so many things hit the nail on the head for me.  What a feeling...
 
This game has blown my mind.  I can't actually express how I feel right now.  The accuracy at which is explained certain parts of my personality is so high that I'm actually kind of freaked out.  I also have no intention of going back for another playthrough, as others seem to.
 
I'm thankful that Giantbomb led me to this game, I'm certainly not going to forget it anytime soon.

I got a slightly different prelude; Harry kneels down next to Cheryl and says something like; "I've allways been with you". Cheryl hugs him and he then turns to ice. Is mine somewhere between the good and bad endings?
 
Other than that, I got the love lost ending. Which in my opinion, looks to be the better outcome from what I am reading here.
 
QAska; My Psych profile was also very close

UFO ending is the greatest.

It Doesn't came out until next year ?

I got the regular good prelude if I remember right. I know for sure he froze over. and I don't remember her slapping his hand away. To be honest I don't remember much of the end video. If I had to guess I think it was the Love Lost ending though. I don't think any of the other endings sound familiar at all. I was somewhat satisfied with the ending. I didn't think it was a mind blowing moment though like Brad.

Yes, after watching a few more versions on youtube, it seems that the prelude itself is divided into different parts that can change, Harry's last line for example. So "I've always been with you" and "Forget me" don't seem to be tied to one particular version of Cheryl's reaction / Harry freezing. "

*running away from all the spoilers*

I got the bad prelude and the Wicked and Weak ending... the ending analysis was extremely accurate for me.
 
I also didn't think the twist was all that crazy... and before Harry walks in the door at the end, I totally saw it coming.
I definitely agree with Brad's 4/5, but Wii game of the year? I just don't know about that.

I got the ending where Harry Kneels down and says " I've always been with you" Then freezes. I got the Love Lost prelude but they didn't argue, she says to be careful. 
 The ending was great, things were rapidly put in place for me was a great experience. 
 
Also didn't anyone else connect the fact that the Doc's creepy looks and smirks might be because you were a young woman the whole time?
I mean if you think about it his tone and looks were always weird and creepy right?
 Think back to his tone when you answered questions about your ideals or views. Think back to his expressions and tone when it was about sexual stuff
I wonder if we had a disconnect and just thought of him a s creepy guy when in fact it's an older man interacting with a younger woman.

After a little bit of research, I found that Ghostiet is right, of course: Harry not freezing over is a bad ending and meant as a continuing of Cheryl's delusions, as emphasized in the fact that the "She leaves the clinic with her mother" scene is missing, and the fact that she does not look at any of the mementos in the very last scene.  
 
Though I still think that scene could've been done better and more elaborate. The whole therapy session was pointless and Harry continues to exist in that way - this is a huge deal.
 
What determines the version of the prelude you get is how much you call phone numbers and explore the environment and collect mementos during the game. 
 
So depending on how much interest and time you invested in discovering Cheryl's memories will influence whether Harry freezes over and on what terms that happens (I've always been with you vs. Someone has to take the blame / Forget me)
 
The Harry-not-freezing-over ending (bad+) you only get when you show the least interest in Cheryl's memories, rarely call phone numbers etc. 
I like that because the smallest number of players will get that ending in their first playthrough.

I got the part of Harry kneeling saying "I've always been there." and then freezing over. Dahlia does not leave with Chery or appear at the office.  
 
I got the sex fiend ending with Michelle and Lisa in bed with Harry, which I thought was really well done. The therapist says something to the effect of "...your mother is actually a good person.", which makes sense because in Cheryl's fantasies, Dahlia is made out to be a whore, while Michelle and Lisa appear to be the good people.

The way the preludes / endings stuff works out, it feels like the game has multiple multiple endings. (If that makes any sense, we might need a new concept page) I got the "I've always been there" and freezing over prelude followed by the "Love Lost" ending and her putting away the mementos. I was really moved by it and didn't figure out it was Cheryl talking to Dr. K until I was outside the lighthouse. 
 
It really shocked me and almost brought me to tears, which then turned into a cold feeling of self-realization when the game spat out a detailed character profile of me. It was one of the most satisfying endings to a game that I've experienced and in that aspect it beat out Silent Hill 2 which I got the "Good" ending and felt a little underwhelmed. (Although I thought the "twist" in SH2 was better) 

What is the deal with the glasses though? What does it mean if Dhalia takes them off you or leaves them on?

She leaves them on for some people? I don't think I have seen or heard of a version where you keep your glasses.

i got the the good prelude(?) where dad comes in reaches for her she doesnt slap the hand away but doesnt accept it and then harry says "forget me"  then shatters.
 
 
then i got the drunk dad in my first ending....., i think ill maybe play it again even though it feels like a one time thing... 
 
The final profile analyzes was pretty damn accurate, im really curious on how that works and if the analyzes are completley different each time or just a general personality traits...really interested on how that all works..... maybe they measure how u play the game ... :\ 
 
good game good game i understand why its wii goty.

Got the Good Prelude with the WIcked and Weak Ending...game makes you think....

" I got a prelude that I don't think anybody else got? 

I just finished it. I thought the ending was pretty boring. I had already figured out hours ago that it probably wasn't Harry with the psychiatrist, but most likely Cheryl, so that came as no surprise. I hadn't really realized until now that all the mementos and phone calls and stuff had to do with Cheryl's life - kind of makes me wish I had payed more attention. But I suppose another playthrough is in order. 
  
My ending was as follows: 
Harry just walked in and Cheryl said something along the lines of "Why did you have to die?" and Harry turned into ice and broke apart. Then a cut scene where he was leaving his wife and told Cheryl not to film them.  
 
Slightly disappointing, to be honest. I was hoping there'd be something absolutely horrific that had happened. Cheryl just not wanting to deal with her father's death seemed kind of tame compared to the foul shit I was imagining. 

Just finished...wow.  Along the lines of fuzzyponken, I was expecting something truly creepy (eg. Harry killed his daughter by brutally raping her or something like that), so the real ending had a very unusual twist for me.  I didn't guess it was Cheryl until the final reveal, although I suspected that Harry did actually die at some point. 
 
What a fantastic game, and it is truly a shame that so few people have played it.

 I haven't personally played the game but I did watch a playthrough of it on Youtube. The person who uploaded it got the wicked and weak ending. For the prelude he got: Harry enters and kneels to Cheryl. Cheryl says "you've been with me for so long". Harry says something like "I'll always be." Harry stands up and freezes. Cheryl beings to cry and fades out. 
 
Such a great ending. The analysis at the end didn't really hit me as hard since I wasn't the one playing it ;D. 

It was Earth all along!!
 
As much as I love all the multiple ways in which things can play out, it feels a little weird never having a "true" and happy ending. Each one of them is depressing in their own way, so a little part of me that is so used to the way things are usually done in Video Games (having many multiple "bad" endings, and one "true" ending), makes me sort of hate all of them. But then, it's also what I love about Shattered Memories. That, and the twist that it's Cheryl in the psychiatrist's office, while not being a particularly groundbreaking style of plot twist, was still pretty awesome.
 
I really hope Climax gets to make another Silent Hill game, because I'd really love to see where they take things. First awesome Silent Hill game since... well, I never played 3, but I hear a lot of good things.
