Shadow of the Collosus

Holy mother of God. Yes. YES.

Finally, a game where you can climb a mountain and KILL it. A big open world to explore with your trusty horse 'Agro,' in an attempt to revive a 'fair maiden.'

Has anyone else played this yet?

Is this the game which has a huge free roam adventure aspect? Where you can also climb huge monsters and take them down!?

If so, I WANT IT! It looks so cool, but i don't think it's in Europe yet.

I played it and I loved it. The game is gorgeous and climbing the beasts are amazing and have a great puzzle element to it. But sadly this game will probably have the same effect as Ico. Because it's a new title not much people would like to check it out. But this game truly is amazing.

I've never really played it. But if it's from the creators of Ico, I've heard about it. It looks so great...

Man..i want to play this so much. But we have to wait until god damn February to get it...*mumble grumble*

.BananaMan · 10-25-2005

February 06?! Damn if so that really sucks for you. IGN gave it like a 9.8. Gamespot gave it I think an 8.7.

If Ico is anything like this, then I'll have to play that one too. The third Collosi just got my blood pumping for more experiences like that. Seriously, the boss battles could easily take up half the game. Killing them is an adventure in itself.

.BananaMan · 10-25-2005

That's something that is quite innovative with Shadow the Collosi are puzzles itself. And you have to go and find them! There aren't any small monsters on the way it's just you vs all the Collosi.

I played a demo of the first Collosi and loved it. The graphics were probably the best I've seen on the PS2. I do like how they madesure the horse controls weren't really very solid, and even un effective at times just to make the horse seem more lifelike. I also liked the use of the sword to navigate. They really did do a great job of making everything seem real. I hadn't heard the horses name was Argo, an obvious refrence to Greek mythology. I remember in the first fight I accidental tried to use the bow to kill it. I'm gonna state the obvious and say that I didn't win.

Just watched the 136MB Video review for this game on Gametrailers and....OH.....MY....GOD!
I want this game, and i want it now!

But Europe don't get it until February. So chances are, once my money has come in i will have to import the American version ASAP.
