The editors liked

  • An epic
  • Innovative adventure with a conservative yet imaginative storyline unfolding in a beautiful world. Nothing beats hanging on for dear life as a colossus desperately tries to throw you off.

The editors didn't like

  • A few technical problems. A noticeable drop in frame rate in the heat of battle and a potentially destructive camera system can sometimes take away from the experience.

  • Abstract:  Here's one of the secrets from my video game pile of shame. I never played Shadow of the Colossus, the hit game that came out in 2005 on the Sony PlayStation 2. But I got a chance to remedy that yesterday at a Sony event in San Francisco, where I played...

  • An epic, innovative adventure with a conservative yet imaginative storyline unfolding in a beautiful world. Nothing beats hanging on for dear life as a colossus desperately tries to throw you off.
  • A few technical problems. A noticeable drop in frame rate in the heat of battle and a potentially destructive camera system can sometimes take away from the experience.
  • Despite its problems, this is an excellent example of innovation. The sheer size and scale of the adventure alone make this title worthwhile. The story is told with respect to the player’s intelligence and intertwines perfectly with the game play.

  • Abstract:  Published December 12th 2005. Written by Johelian. Usually when a console reaches the end of its lifespan and a glittery successor looms on the horizon, we begin to expect a gradual winding down in the quality of the games. Every game that sounds half-...
