If only the DAMN horse was easier to control!
User Rating: 8.8 | Shadow of the Colossus PS2
This is a great game when all things are considered including actual gameplay, graphics, storyline, etc. However, players of this game might find that actually getting to the colossi is a true pain in the ass. Although it does take a little while simply riding to get to the colossi, finding them isn't the problem. The damn horse is the problem. Controlling the horse is a true pain when you have to try and steer him through the woods or down a path, or when crossing a bridge. Granted you can't fall off of the cliffs while on the horse, but the horse stops abruptly when you hit an invisible wall or when under or oversteering the **** It gets annoying and tends to take away from the base gameplay, which is amazing. The game makes up for itself when you fight the colossi, so don't be too discouraged; and despite a slow frame rate at some high tension moments in the game, it is still enjoyable to the very end.
