I was wondering because ive heard so much good about it, but i never did. I heard it was made by the same team that did ico. Just wanted to know what Shado of the collosus' is about/how the gameplay is like.

it's like Ico, chances are you haven't played that either, it's also like out of this world (another world) for the SNES, and i'm assuuming you haven't played that either, it's similar to Zelda i guess, but it's WAAAY different

bascially it follows a formula of riding through a vast, open land searching for colossi, of which there are 16. Then you have to find a way to defeat it, usually it requires getting on the collosi itself (they are huge). Its truly a cinimatic, exhilirating experience hanging on for dear life as a huge collosii tries to shake you off while trying to stab its weak spot before you lose grip....

If you're a fan of action adventure this is a must.

It's by far one of the best ps2 games available.

Watch IGN's video review.  They did a great job of showing how Epic it is without spoilers.

It's a fabulously inventive game - an original concept with an unusual gaming approach.  I wouldn't say it is as good as ICO, but it's worth a few hours of anyone's time.

Its an incedibly....empty shallow stupid game.   Cinema -> jump on horse -> ride to collosi -> climb collosi while micromanaging your grip meter -> stab collosi weakspots -> repeat x16 -> the end.  You get a sword and thats it.  There are some other weapons you can unlock by doing stuff but they are completely worthless,  I mean I beat the game without them so I dont know what good they are.   People talk about how beautiful the scenery is but it wasnt anything special or jaw dropping.   But hey for most people who suffer from a lack of taste and game experience its one of the best games on the ps2.

Sotc is an amazing game, i really enjoyed playing this game, it has amazing graphics, great storyline and the gameplay is awesome :), but once u finish the game theres nothing that makes u come back to it the game lacks replay value.
