shadow of the colossus was such a cool game that i thought was bursting with originality. its a must have for gamers young and old that are looking for something new.

it was so good because the notion of killing colossal beings with a sword and a bow uses loads of imagination.

it really shocked me with its exellence the reviews i had read all said the game was bad and i thought it sounded stupid too.

you start as a boy with a horse and a sword how could anyone imagine beating all sixteen colossi with that.
but you can do it the game has loads of cheatability to for anyone who likes to explore the seemingly endless countryside in the shadow of the colossus
