    Shadow of the Colossus

    Anyone played this on PS2? I picked up yesterday and its really fucking sweet. The graphics are insane so far. I've only faught two of the bosses but the fights are really fun, for those of you who don't know you basically play a kid and you gotta defeat these colossi by climbing up and around them to find their weak point (they are fucking huge btw). Really fun so far.

    This game is probably the best console game I've played in a while. So far, killed 6 collosi, the flying collosus is just jaw dropping.

    Very fun, well made game. It's like a puzzle game almost. Because all you do is look for collosi and find out how to bring em down.

    Go try it.

    My cousin got this, said it was fucking awesome, and I'm considering picking it up. How much does it cost?

    I nabbed it for $39.99US at Fry's Electronics, don't know why it wasn't the usual 50$.. Maybe introductory price?

    Probably because you can beat it in way under 10 hours.

    Sounds like a good rental then.

    All Playstation 2 games made by Sony hit the shelves at 40$. I'm going to try and get this tomarrow. From what I've heard and all over the net, it has to be good.

    It's good, but unfortunately as much as I want to play it, I'm afraid I'll beat it in one sitting. So I'm having to play in moderation :\

    My only problems with it are the controls are kinda iffy. Other than that, very addicting

    Yeah... I had such a problem on the last colossus because of that >|

    game sequence:

    1. longest intro in existence
    2. gameplay with zero story or character development
    3. longest ending in existence

    how does that make any sense?

    After playing I have to say the idea was cool, the game was cool, but it got pretty annoying and tedious near the end when the colossi difficulty increase strategy consisted of "I know! Let's make them shake a lot more!" Plus the insanely long ending came out of NOWHERE considering there was absolutely no background info on anything and no development during the actual game.

    A good rental at best... although Blockbuster's $8.00 fee for games is pretty fucking pricey.
