A surprising adventure that's simple in nature but epic in scope.

User Rating: 9 | Shadow of the Colossus PS2
I was really excited to get this game, for I had heard great things about it. Let me tell you, it lived up to it. Hell yes, it did. For something that only involved a few people, with even less dialogue, it had a surprisingly epic feel to it. I suppose it was mostly due to the behemoth colossi wandering the countryside and the amazing background music. Riding around the world was fun on its own because it was a beauty to look at. Sadly, the game had a somewhat eerily haunting feeling to it. I mean, you are the only person there til the end of the game. I do understand why that is, and that's why it isn't a big problem. Figuring out how to defeat each colossus was almost the best part. (The best part being delivering each killing blow and watching the giant collapse like a skyscraper. ((Not including the small ones of course... )) The ending was somewhat confusing, but was still really good. All in all, this game is a complete masterpiece, and is not to be passed by.
