This game is just beautiful. From the very beginning of the story, you'll find yourself trapped into a "oh, look at that!" kind of thing. The nature is very well represented in Shadow of the Colossus. You are most likely to stop searching for Colossi (the "bad guys" of this game), and just look at the landscape.
The Colossi are well designed, either. Just a hint: don't stop trying to get to the higher points of the Colossus, just to look at it.
There're 16 Colossi. I know, that seems the game won't last very long (since you'll only fight them). But you take up to 30 minutes - 1 hour and a half to finish each one of them. Put it together, you have more than 10 hours of game played. 10 hours of GOOD gaming...
One more tip: don't press "start" when the final credits appear. Trust me.
