Sep 3, 2023Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!!
-
Aug 22, 2023Monumental, legendary, introspective, awesome in every way, beautiful, reflexive, mysterious, addictive, awe-inspiring... One of my all-time favorites.
-
Aug 14, 2023That was a freaking great game back in the day, I couldn't even believe what I was sawing when I played it for the first time. Fumito Ueda really did something, and inspired a lot o people with his work.
-
Jul 18, 2023Rather oddball adventure in which you search a largely empty landscape to find a series of huge creatures you must defeat in turn to progress. Really just a glorified series of boss fights, SOTC is wonderful to look at but ultimately left me rather cold.
-
Jul 16, 2023The grand designs of each colossus and the physics-based combat system make every battle in Shadow of the Colossus feel like a desperate struggle against an impossibly powerful foe. The battles are too forgiving, which undercuts that feeling of overcoming an enormous obstacle.
-
Jul 8, 2023I have to give games that introduced something never done before and just knocked it out of the park. It could have had more story, but that would have taken away form the allure of the unknown. A wonderful new approach to combat mechanics. You must play this game once. Probably in my top 10-15 games of all time.
-
Jun 30, 2023Really fun game though it's short. It's a shame they cut a bunch of content because i'd love to play more. After playing the ps2 version I had to play the remake.
-
Jun 24, 2023Se eu pudesse dar uma nota maior, com certeza eu daria. Esse jogo é simplesmente maravilhoso. Esse foi o primeiro jogo que zerei depois de muitos anos e com certeza quem começa a jogar não vai querer parar.
-
Apr 13, 2023I can say without a doubt that this is the magnum opus of video games and the proof that video games can be art and have an artistic desire.

Feb 7, 2023Una obra Maestra de los videojuegos, Fumito Ueda demuestra que los videojuegos son Arte. Creando un mundo y unos personajes increíbles, la historia y las sentimientos que transmites es fascinante.

Jan 26, 2023Hello, this is a default review because i'm forced to use 75 characters. I'll edit this review in the future talking about the game, don't worry ;)
My final rate is: 9 -
Dec 28, 2022Indescritível, único, perfeito, maravilhoso, não existem adjetivos o sulficiente para descrever está obra de arte, simplesmente jogue.
-
Dec 13, 2022Shadow of the Colossus leaves a void in your heart after finishing it, because even today there is no game that comes close to what that journey was.
Nota Final: 9,8 -
Nov 30, 2022Çok iyi oyun ama bende CD'de 13. bossu kestikten sonra takılıyordu hala daha 13. bossu kestikten sonrasını bilmiyorum. Çok merak ediyorum bir gün oynayabilecek miyim acaba ?
-
Nov 15, 2022Al igual que todos los juegos de este estudio, éste juego es muy especial, me da la sensación que o lo detestas o lo amas. Yo soy de los segundos. No es para todos los públicos, porque puede ser o tremendamente aburrido y monótono o bien puede ser un viaje emocional increíble.

Sep 17, 2022This film noir portrait of corruption and morally-compromised obsessions stars Welles as Hank Quinlan, a crooked police chief who frames a Mexican youth as part of an intricate criminal plot. Charlton Heston plays an honorable Mexican narcotics investigator who clashes with the bigoted Quinlan after probing into his dark past. A memorable

Aug 13, 2022Uno de los mejores juegos de PS todos los tiempos… cada cierto tiempo vuelvo a jugarlo para revivir la obra de arte

Jul 11, 2022Empty world that makes me feel good but I wish it was more colossus and not just 12
-
Jun 27, 2022Shadow of the Colossus is a masterpiece in scale, presentation, and gameplay.
-
Jun 7, 2022It was a very good game with music and bosses. I was very angry at some parts. All in all it was a quality game. I think you should play the remake version. More suitable for today.
-
Jun 3, 2022I seriously wanted to love this game, and find it one of the best soundtracks of any videogame ever made to this day. But, the terrible controls and extreme difficulty to reach and battle many of the colossi made it impossible for me to enjoy the game and unable to finish it.
-
Mar 19, 2022A maior prima da sexta geração e um dos melhores jogos já feitos. Tanto em cenário, ambiente, "vibe", quanto em gameplay. Master-piece.
-
Feb 21, 2022This is, with no shadow of doubt, one of the best games ever developed. It is so simple, yet so deep. A speechless adventure, breath taking views and moments. 16 different bosses, no NPC's. I must say, it was daring, and they did it. Certainly a must play.
-
Feb 16, 2022The best PS2 game, the graphics, the combat, the puzzles, the lore...... its a must play, one of the best of all time
-
Jan 23, 2022Uno de esos juegos que dejan una huella imborrable en ti. Nada más que añadir.
-
Jan 8, 2022An unusual but great games. The atmosphere and minimalistic story were great, and the design of the colossi as well the way you are suppose to deafeat them are extremley ingenious and creative. The controls work fine enough but sometimes they can feel a bit unresponsive and inconsistent, but overall a great game that I could see become an 8/10 for me in the future.

Dec 26, 2021Muito a frente do seu tempo, se você jogou sem olhar nenhuma dica na internet teve toda a imersão do jogo o que para eu é o melhor jogo de todos os tempos!
-
Dec 24, 2021aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Dec 4, 2021A unique game, but I still think it's quite flawed in parts. A lot of the bosses just aren't fun.

Oct 14, 2021it's a very average game, we can say that the game doesn't evolve from start to finish, what stands out is the level design
-
Sep 16, 2021Breathtaking environment, incredible bosses, amazing soundtrack. Everything merges into this game and feels so organic for a PS2 game. It's just unbelievable.
-
May 23, 2021Did you ever had the urge to ride trough a huge world looking for one single enemy for hours and beat him up for hours ? No ? When you start playing, you will learn that thats exactly what you needed.
-
Apr 18, 2021Una obra maestra! Sin lugar a dudas una genialidad junto con ICO. Juego indispensable en la colección retro.
-
Apr 13, 2021One of the best video games ever made. Shadow of the Colossus blurs the lines between game and art with one foot firmly in art.
-
Jan 29, 2021A classic, a well designed game, an example on how to do something original and great
-
Jan 9, 2021absolutely one of the most well designed games ever created. the attention to detail is absolutely astonishing. the music is **** epic. the colossi are terrifying, and a treat to take down. i like that it's not just about climbing up the bastard and then being done, nah you gotta think, use your environment, they're all a little diifferent
-
Oct 8, 2020İs very very good game but controls and camera views cancer.Horse (agro) mechanich is very good.
-
Sep 30, 2020SOTC is the best game i have ever played, it´s a true master piece that will be remembered for ever
-
Sep 12, 2020This game its a masterpiece. His graphics from his time its just amazing. Every single colossi its memorable. Its the better game i ever played.
-
Aug 10, 2020A Beautiful Vast game and incredibly unique. The way the story is told is so different and interesting and the atmosphere of the game is amazing with an excellent Soundtrack. Controls and Camera are a bit clunky but the good overlaps the bad.
-
Jul 30, 2020A PS2 classic in every sense of the word. It may be a game that only focuses on bosses. But that's what makes it super unique and interesting. Fighting these giants while an epic score plays makes this an unforgettable experience. If you missed out on the PS2 port, Then give the PS4 version a go. It's just as amazing.

Jul 16, 2020My all time favourite game. Looks unbelievable for a ps2 game.
The greatest boss battles of all time! Such a fun game and still captivates me to this day.
My original ps2 special edition still sits proudly on my shelf! -

May 16, 2020Играл на пс2, лагало конечно ужасно) но геймплей очень крутой. Поразительная игра. Финальный босс разачаровывает. Но вцелом идеальная игра.
-
May 9, 2020The huge empty world and atmosphere of solitude and mystery really does the job. The only complaint is that the travels to find the next colossus get too long and boring sometimes. It's also hard to locate them using the light from your sword
-
Apr 17, 2020how am I going to express everything I think about this game ...
it is simply sensational. a revolutionary idea, beautiful graphics to this day, a beautiful soundtrack and a wonderful story result in the best action RPG on the ps2. -

Jul 7, 2019One of the best games ever! Shadow Of The Colossus is a masterpiece. Everything that an epic adventure needs to be. Memorable enemies, a story that allows the player to use their imagination, tight controls, and one of the most impressive soundtracks of recent note. In short, it's classic.

Jan 8, 2019An epic game that inspires determination and sorrow in equal measure as you explore a desolate landscape on a quest to slay stone giants.
-
Nov 26, 2018Termine Shadow of Colossus, y ya se por que muchos la valoran una obra de arte, a pesar de los controles, el frame rate y problemas con algunos jefes. El final de su historia pega y duro.
Mis colosos favoritos, son los que tienen forma de perro, los más pequeños que hay (muy creativos en mi opinión), el ave y los 3 que tienen forma de gusano. -
Nov 15, 2018A Masterpiece, loved everything about this game, it is definitely a must play!

Sep 18, 2018Todavía no me explico como una ps2 era capaz de mover semejante animalada. Un juego único y diferente a todo lo visto hasta entonces. Fumito se superaba y alcanza una obra maestra sin precedentes
-
Jul 13, 2018the biggest WTF game EVER !!!!
Just play it, it's absolutely magnificent!!!!!!!!!!!!! -

May 18, 2018One of the best games ever made. Such a unique game full of different boss battles.
-
May 15, 2018The original SOTC was a bit wonky with its animations and terrible motion blur. But it has such a gripping narrative and game-play loop that it kept me playing
-
May 4, 2018All the elements of the game come together to create an experience which is unique to this game, just like Ueda's other games. The vast landscapes create a brilliant sense of isolation, the riding sections stand in great contrast to the colossi battles, and the subtle effects the game gives become progressively more impacting to the player's experience of the game.

Jan 7, 2018When i started playing this game i never thought i could love it the way i do now, it's just incredible, every single thing is priceless, an art work from every single part of it, such good fights that makes unexpected turns and challenge the player to grow with the game, Unique, epic and magic adventure.
-
Jan 5, 2018There's not much I can say about this game that hasn't already been said before. It's hard to tell whether it's a better video game or piece of art. 10/10, a true masterpiece.

Oct 8, 201791 Metascore does not make this game any justice, this is one of the best games ever made if not the best one ever, everything about this game is calm and quiet until you reach the beasts, then everytime you kill one you want to cry but you gotta do what you gotta do.
-
Jul 22, 2017Anybody who gave this game a bad review was either drunk when they played it, or just suffers from crippling stupidity.
I've owned this game since 2006, and it's the only reason I will always replace a failing PS2. I've grown incredibly meh towards all video games over the years, but this game will never, ever, ever bore me. -

May 17, 2017Una obra maestra, graficos buenos para la epoca, un juego sin demasiadas pantallas de carga, con un mundo con dibujado muy lejano y bueno. Colosos impresionantes, una historia buena y algo increible que nos transmite a todos los que lo jugamos.No es una juego demasiado corto, 16 colosos, tampoco es muy largo, ademas con dos personajes principales con una relacion muy carismatica y especial.
-
May 6, 2017este e meu jogo favorito mil de 100.Ainda mais para um jogo desta época tudo nele e incrivel principalmente o clima serio a trilha sonora os inimigo (os colosus no caso) tudo isto cria um clima perfeito .Além de ser o mais divertido que já joguei

Jan 29, 2017Que se puede decir que no se haya dicho ya de la aventura de Wander? de la destrucción de los colosos, del basto y tranquilo lugar, del caballo, de las mecánicas de ensayo y error. de la historia? un juego maravilloso y casi perfecto

Dec 10, 2016Shadow of the Colossus is one of the most beautiful games I have ever played. A well crafted masterpiece. The story is engrossing, deep, and emotional. The gameplay is not the the greatest, but it works pretty well. And the graphics are solid. Play this game with the HD version if you have a PS3, If you're on PS4 though, you'll just have to hope for a remake or remaster to the current-gen.
-
Dec 5, 2016the game is perfect as an idea, its unique and bizarre.
but when its time play it u need nerves of steel.. controls and camera its your main enemy.. definitely not gonna play it again

atmosphere 9/10
music 8/10 (i was going for 10/10 but after 30sec its repetitive)
controls 0/10
camera 0/10 -

Official U.S. Playstation MagazineIf you can appreciate artistry in games, if you hanker for an experience that transcends genre, if you want to see what happens when a creative design team is allowed to ignore sales numbers and flavor-of-the-month trends, by all means bring yourself into Shadow's world. [Oct 2005, p.98]

Game InformerA truly unique experience that inspires emotions in a way few games can. It has its share of problems, but I love it just the same. [Oct 2005, p.130]

It's unlike anything else you've ever played, and so you may love it or you may hate it. Count me firmly in the "love" boat. [Nov 2005, p.142]
