Game Review: Shadow of the Colossus
Posted Sat, 21st Oct at 1:10 PM
From the makers of ICO comes: Shadow of the Colossus for the PS2. A game that is a series of massive boss battles. With an interestingly different story line it really lives up to the ICO pedigree.
The Good:
- Great atmoshpere once again, travelling across the empty world is quite surreal.
- Progressive mode graphics, enhances the overall look of the game.
- The Colossi are huge, you really get a sense of scale when you see them.
- The soundtrack is just spot on for this type of game.
The Bad:
- Lots and lots of Boss battles, 12 would have been enough for me.
- Sometimes its really hard to figure out how to attack the Colossi and the hints just won’t come.
- Camera can sometimes really hate you.
Overall:
Wow, another fine game that won’t disapoint if you like ICO. Highly recomended.
