User Rating: 9.4 | Shadow of the Colossus PS2
I have never played a game with a story like this. I bought this game for 20 dollars as a greatest hit. I think it was worth the money. It took me about two weeks to beat the game. Beating the game in normal mode took me about 12 hours. I am not such an experienced player, however I play video game whenever I have time. You have to defeat these huge creatures which are known as colossus' . Some may take you an hour, half hour or less. There are 16 of them. You play as a man who is equipped with a special sword which leads you to the colossus', a bow, and you have a horse. I beat this game already and there is a good amount of unlockables. People wouldnt usually picture me playing a game like this. So for any gamer who doesnt want to spend a lot of money on a good game or wants to try something new, I recommend shadow of the colossus. It was a great game overall, the replay value is good, and I wont tell you about the story, that you need to find out on your own. The graphics are okay. The gameplay is great. The sounds are good. The value was great. Definately recommended for anyone.
