absolutely astonishing

User Rating: 9.3 | Shadow of the Colossus PS2
the game cannot be described by words. The feel and epic battles you'll face will be an experience like none other. The open ended land you go through includes lush forests, deserts, ruins, beaches and many more. Sometimes you'll even stop to glance at the environments. Shadow of the colossus will be an experience you will never forget.

graphics 10/10
gorgeous is all I can say. Even rendered on ps2 makes it even better. By just looking at the lush forests and ruins. You'll see how much work and effort they put into it. Forests actually look like forest, ruins express themselves nicely. The lands actually looks very natural and sometimes birds will roam around the temple. The colossus also has incredibly high detail in them with great animation.

gameplay 10/10
the gameplay is just very innovative and can immerse you into the best boss battles you have ever witnessed. With just a bow, a horse and your sword, you can bring down bosses larger than anything you ever saw.

sound 10/10
once you hear the sound from the first colossus you will be so pumped up to fight the next. From the horses galloping to the death of a colossus, its truly stunning and addicting. The sound also makes you want to fight the next colossus.

value 9/10
i'd say its worth you money. Believe me this is one of the most impressive, stunning, non forgeting experience you will ever see. Bringing down one colossus is so satisfying you just want to fight the next one. A game like this comes every few years. Games that innovate, games that put a mark in the history of gaming, games that will overwhelm you very opinions towards gaming.
