Weekly Game Review: Shadow of the Colossus

[Emu]

Spending hours hunting for the weak point would be gay, and it's not like you can just leap straight up to it and shove your sword in. It moves around on some of the bosses after you damage them to a certain extent, and the goal of the game is even getting there in the first place.

The final colossus is epic. I sure hope none of you dimwits consider that "spoilage", because well, we could all see it coming: epic.

[Goronian]

I liked this game... For an hour or so. It's just too repetitive and bland for my taste... Yeah, yeah, visuals are pretty, but, well... Grey. Really-really grey. The sort of grey you see in black and white movies. Really... Ico kicked this game's ass.

By the way, that one horse colossus screwed me over and over and over.

[Codiekitty]

The final colossus is like that episode of Doug where he goes to see a monster movie, hides just before the monster is unveiled twice, then the third time he sees the monster and breaks out laughing because you can see the zipper in the back of the costume.

Except this monster is a thousand feet tall and hurling fireballs at you.

[Codiekitty]

It's a 200 foot tall shrieking man in a dress and its fireballs are stopped by thin walls and it's not even throwing them for half the fight.
