    Shadow of the Colossus is one of those games I've never even heard about it back then but after so much nonstop discourse around it, I picked it up after I got a PS4 Pro but then never bothered to play it again with how busy I got. I can definitely say for sure that was a mistake since it ended up being the strangest masterpiece I ended up playing and I for sure regret not diving into itShadow of the Colossus is one of those games I've never even heard about it back then but after so much nonstop discourse around it, I picked it up after I got a PS4 Pro but then never bothered to play it again with how busy I got. I can definitely say for sure that was a mistake since it ended up being the strangest masterpiece I ended up playing and I for sure regret not diving into it sooner. The few but key things that made this game work for me and what I believe are the sole reason why it's so beloved come down to the world, visuals, soundtrack, story, and bosses. Starting off, one look at SOTC's map might look like a very barebones map with absolutely no reason to explore it with how there's no side quests, NPC's, side enemies, interesting collectibles, or even any in game events. But that's the entire point since because of how you can only hear is the occasional bird chirping in the air and your horse galloping through the land as you travel and hear nothing else, it gives off a sense of loneliness that you don't normally feel in open world games making you feel like something is constantly off about what you're doing. Plus, it's therapeutic in a way thanks to it's emptiness meaning as you move around the world, instead of talking to NPC's, constantly looking at the map to figure out where to go, finding any collectibles, stare at any UI, or doing anything that could interrupt the experience, the game instead allows you to fully take in the world leaving you both immersed and relaxed as you're riding around. Finally, due to the emptiness of the world, it gives off a sense of mystery that you want to explore to see what you could discover which is exactly what led it becoming a cult classic. Looking at gameplay footage on the PS2 version, I could tell the game pushed that console to it's very limits with it looks surprisingly good nowadays, but the PS4 version is something short of beautiful with how it's so detailed while also keeping the original atmosphere. I came into this game expecting nothing from the soundtrack and on the surface, I wasn't really blown away by it initially as I was taking on one of the colossi, but then as I took it down, instead of heroic and congratulating music, the music gave off a sense of sadness and horrible feelings instead making me feel like I did something wrong hinting of the bigger picture in the future that something was wrong. Speaking of which, the story starts off so simplistic but leads to something bigger at the end and leaves you wondering so much and the fact that not much is said benefits the story since it leaves asking so much stuff even by the time you reach the end credits. Finally, the bosses are easily the biggest highlight of the game since you have 2 weapons and don't improve much aside from health and stamina hence making you feel so weak compared to the colossi meaning you can't just rush in and just go wild with them since that's nothing short of suicide, the colossi are instead an inverted dungeon in a way since you have to use your environment to figure out how to kill them and it's always satisfying to figure out how to kill them, the designs are PHENOMENAL, and when they kill you, the game over screen showing each individual colossi feels like a person's nightmare enhancing the creepiness of the game. Now as much as I loved this game, there were a few but big problems that did mess up my time with the game. Firstly, the camera is a bit clunky and can be a problem if the colossi's limbs get in the way. It wasn't necessarily that hard meaning the speedrun trophy was way too easy. Finally, what ruins it for me is that some of the colossi are pretty unbalanced especially the 11th colossi soft-locking me and left me infuriated instead of frustrated. Overall, this game was absolutely amazing and I can't thank Sony for keeping the game alive with this remake and can't wait to see how this IP will move forward (or honestly, if it's not going to, its fine enough)… Expand

    Increíble poder jugar a Shadow de Colosus en tu PS4 con mejores gráficos, la verdad es buen juego, tiene muy buena historia, además también tiene una banda sonora que funciona perfectamente para cada momento.

    La dificultad/duración depende de varios factores, de los cuales dependes tu como usuario, no te dan facilidades que en otros juegos si que te las dan, en este juego tendrás que pensar un poco, pero tampoco lo considero extremadamente difícil (no lo he jugado en modo difícil)

What am I reading and seeing here? Never have I been more disappointed in humanity than I am right now seeing all those red reviews.

    This is the greatest damn video game ever crafted with haunting themes of loss and despair. I think many people just do not have the deep sensitivity required in order to truly appreciate the power and haunting beauty of this game. I almost do not even want to call it a game. It’s beyond that when something is able to make you feel so deeply. I cried in the end…most of these people will never be able to possess the ability to feel what the character in this game is feeling. The desire, the determination that no matter what the cost….he’d do anything necessary to bring the love of his life back from the dead.

    I will say this…the critics here are the correct ones. And thank the heavens for that. If I listened to all the idiots here I’d miss out on the greatest cinematic masterpiece I have ever experienced. And I’ve platinumed this game. I’ve spent 120 hours on it according to my ps5. It’s my most beloved and cherished video game of all time. I bought two physical special editions of the game. One for myself and my brother. This is how much this video game means to me.

    The critics didn’t review this game for the average moron that’s out there. Of course they knew most people wouldn’t understand this masterpiece. This game is made for people such as myself who admire the finer things life has to offer. Someone that smells the roses while going for walks. Admires beautiful sunsets. Listens to the birds as they fly over cascading waterfalls…..the critics reviewed this game based on what Fumito Ueda envisioned this game to be. The loneliness, the despair, the way the horse handles….every little damn detail in this game is exactly how it was intended to be. It’s not supposed to be easy to climb those colossal beasts…it’s supposed to be an agonizing task in which when you succeed you feel as if you have conquered the world.

    I’m glad the critics see this game for what it truly is. Shame on all those bad reviews but I’ve always knew this to be true. Most people on this planet are not exactly spiritual and introspective people.
    It’d be like trying to show someone with a bery corrupt mentality and view of nature why the waterfall is so beautiful and they’ll just say…but it’s just a waterfall. You either see it or you don’t. You either believe it or you don’t. I for one, am happy to say that I see what the critics see. People are going to talk to me about awful controls? Seriously? The horse controls as if I’m actually riding an actual horse. It feels like he is a separate entity to the main character and feels like it has a mind of its own. You really have to command him to stop. The horse honestly controls itself and moves freely through the corridors without much need for player control. People are just clueless or upset that this game was praised so much and rightfully so. I had no problems navigating through the game but then again this game is my cup of tea…I hate shooters and nonsensical stupid games. I like contemplative experiences like this where you just navigate through the environment without anyone holding your hand.

    This is perhaps the most misunderstood product of all time. People are just not used to this kind of game and are gonna bash something they don’t like because it’s not their conventional Zelda like game.

    This game is REAL. The creator wanted you to feel every breath of wind and every blade of grass. He wanted you to be in the footsteps of wander and boy, the final 10 minutes are some of the most emotional moments I have ever witness in a gamer.    … Expand

    Hay dos formas de ver este juego y por las dos merece la pena jugarlo. Si no lo has jugado nunca, hazlo, es un juegazo. Si ya lo has jugado, merece la pena ver el trabajo que han hecho en este remake sobre todo por la belleza del diseño de producción del título. Con los medios técnicos mejorados, este juego luce de escándalo y se lo merece.

    Si ya lo has jugado ya lo sabrás, si no lo has jugado solo decir que Shadow of the colossus es un bosh rush. No hay más enemigos a los que enfrentarse que los 16 enormes colosos que son tu misión y leit motiv de la historia del juego. Te encontrarás en un mapa relativamente grande (lo era en tiempos de PS2) donde puedes explorar por donde quieras. De hecho se han añadido pequeñas recompensas a la exploración, cosa que en el título antiguo no había más allá de mejorar la resistencia y la barra de vida. Donde debes encontrar y matar a cada uno de los colosos para poder devolver la vida a tu amada. Cada coloso es un puzzle distinto, hay que descubrir sus puntos débiles y averiguar cómo explotarlos para acabar con su vida y liberar su esencia. Los combates son cada uno diferente y dependerás únicamente de tu sesera, un arco y una espada encantada que siempre, con ayuda de la luz del sol, te enseñará donde se encuentran tus objetivos.

    Poco más de decir. Uno de los mejores juegos de la generación de PS2 recuperado y rescatado para la generación pasada y actual. Una delicia por su historia, por su diseño y por lo atrevido del concepto. Es un must play de manual.    … Expand

    An incredible game that manages to convey what he really is... a young man alone in a world where his opponents are bigger and stronger than you. The game is small, but you get so much into the game that it feels like the game is huge, and that's a very positive point.

    Esse jogo é quase perfeito.
    Só acho o jogo curto, pois originalmente tinham 24 colossus porém 9 deles foram excluídos por pressão da Sony no Ps2, mas a Bluepoint poderia adicioná-los nem que seja por DLC paga, mas poderiam ter pego essa oportunidade, pois muitos fãs queria lutar contra esses colossus.
    Além da cara do protagonista que está meio estranha, ele é sem emoção mesmo em uma batalha contra os colossus, onde no Ps2 ele ficava com o rosto assustado, enquanto na nova versão ele é totalmente neutro mesmo em situações de risco.
    Mas tirando isso, o jogo é muito bom e é extremamente recomendado, se tiver a oportunidade de jogar essa versão ou a versão antiga então JOGUE! Ele mudou minha percepção de jogos e acho que esse é o jogo favorito de diversas pessoas.    … Expand

And exploring.

    To cut straight to the chase, this game does have a very cinematic feel while having very little dialogue or character interaction. And honestly, that's a big part of the game's charm. That, and these large, beautiful environments it would be a dream to be able to visit. The dynamic of exploring a peaceful landscape and then trying to slay a mountainous creature does feel quite epic; Sort of a calm before the storm on repeat. Personally, I don't have a problem with the controls most of the time, and I do think this is a very engaging experience that's worth playing all the way through once (which can take 5-10 hours if you aren't trying to speed-run it). Personally, I recommend doing hard mode right away as it just simply adds more weak points and lowers your attack power, so you may need to apply more strategies that you wouldn't in normal mode.

    Overall, each of these colossi is a very distinct, and mostly well-done boss fight. While they all require stabbing weak points repeatedly while holding on, trying to anticipate the next major movement that may attempt to shake you off like a flee on a dog, actually reaching these points requires unique strategies to be able to reach. To top off the praise for this game, the orchestral music is very fitting, and the ending gave me some feels in a very unique and memorable way.

    Now the downsides... There are definitely some major downsides that make this game occasionally very frustrating, particularly if you're trying to play it in Time Attack on Hard mode, which reveals the singular overarching issue here: This game is better at being an interactive experience rather than a traditional game. The difficulty curve is generally okay, but there're a handful of bosses that are just frustrating to try to manipulate properly, VERY SPECIFICALLY: #9 (where you need to make a hot spring hit its belly), #4 (where you need to bait a giant horse to lower it's head), and #12, because I just watched this guy go all the way to the opposite end of the map while I was firing arrows at him, like wtf... Also #10 requires shooting arrows while riding away from it, which isn't very intuitive since I can easily run into a pillar without realizing it's there (I do still think it's fun despite this). Aside from those handful of errors, I generally enjoy finagling my way through these, it just gets VERY frustrating when it doesn't want to work with you in Time Attack.

    To top off the negative aspects of this game, they really should just call the main character Stumble instead of Wander, considering how the slightest movements can make him fall over (which cuts into grip regen time). Momentum manipulation can lead to some interesting speed-run tactics, but there're a good few times where I really don't think my character should've gone the way they did. Plus, there aren't really enough grip points in the normal map. And lastly, I actually think being able to press a button to focus the camera on either the colossus or your horse Agro is exactly the way the camera should function, BUT sometimes it just gets caught in inconvenient locations, like: In #12, while I'm trying to get on top of it's head, half the time the camera gets stuck on its shoulder and I can't actually tell if I'm at the right angle to pull myself up. Still, it's nowhere near as bad as Super Mario 64, and people love that game.

    Most of these issues may seem big, but they're ultimately minor in that they don't actually break the game or totally ruin the gameplay experience. This is still strongly recommended for anyone still interested after reading this. I would not recommend this to someone who's only interested in action-heavy, grindy games, though.    … Expand

    This isn't much to say about this other than it has improved on the original visually in a massive way. The cut-scenes are more solid and cinematic, the world has been brushed with more detail and the sound jumps right out from start to finish.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Shadow of the Colossus game is a huge success from the PlayStation 2, the game got an HD version of the PlayStation 3 console, which did not make a significant change to the graphics but let new players be out of the game. And in 2018 we got a remake of a game created by Bluepoint games (the company that developed the collection of Uncharted games) so let's start with a review of the game Shadow of the colossus:

    Plot - The plot in the game is simply excellent. Without making you spoilers I will just say that the plot of the game will arouse in you many emotions from designer to anger.
    Final score - 10/10 - Just a crazy plot.

    Gameplay - The gameplay in a simple game is very excellent and creative, the game consists only of bosses but the bosses are like a puzzle that after you kill them you will feel a sense of satisfaction. The bosses in the game are not puzzles, they will also challenge your archery links and your tolerance.
    Final score 10/10 - Simple gameplay is excellent.

    Graphics - The graphics in the game are simply breathtaking even today in 2021. Bluepoint did a great job here with the graphics that make this game look like a game released today and not like a game released for the PlayStation 2.
    Final score - 10/10 - Simply amazing graphics

    To sum up the remake of Shadow of the colossus is a simply amazing remake, it's one of the best remakes I know, it's also one of the best games I've played in my life.
    Final score - 10/10 - A simply amazing game, anyone who has a PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 must get a copy of this game.    … Expand

    El control de Wander, el personaje principal, es tosco porque encarnamos a un chaval cualquiera enfrentándose a criaturas que hacen temblar la tierra a su paso. Ni siquiera es alguien que destaque a nivel físico, y esto se puede comprobar desde el minuto 1 con la voltereta para esquivar; lenta, torpe y rematada con un traspiés.

    Montar en Agro es muy frustrante si se intenta controlarlo totalmente, porque es un ser distinto a nuestro personaje. No controlamos a Agro, controlamos al chico que monta en Agro. Es mejor guiarle con pequeños movimientos para indicar la dirección general y él ya recorre el camino a su manera. Además necesitamos su ayuda para vencer a varios de los colosos, forzando una colaboración que no necesita barrera idiomática para desarrollarse.
    Esto hace que no sea solo una extensión del control del jugador, sino un NPC con personalidad propia.

    El campo extenso y vacío es una muestra de soledad y desolación, una tierra abandonada por los hombres en la que la vida no puede florecer. Esto potencia la escena final y da un punto más esperanzador a una historia llena de melancolía y tristeza.

    Shadow of the colossus es una mirada al abismo. Matar colosos es satisfactorio porque consigues sobreponerte a un enemigo temible a través de las dificultades, pero a la vez son criaturas que no suponen una amenaza para nadie, únicas y magníficas, una representación del poder de la naturaleza contra la intervención humana. Su destrucción se convierte en nuestra corrupción.

    Es un juego creativo en sus colosos, sobrio en formas, elegante y que cuenta exactamente lo que quiere contar; sin relleno, sin artificios y sin mecánicas innecesarias. La obra de un desarrollador único en el medio.    … Expand

Bluepoint Games put a lot of effort in reworking Shadow Of The Colossus, and even if you are like me and have never played the original PS2 title, the amount of passion put into this game is fantastic to see in a game. The frustrating controls made finally overcoming a colossus even more satisfying, for me at least. The soundtrack is quite frankly one of the best I've ever heard. The music can be somber and melancholic, or large and bombastic, and it adds so much to the experience. The plot is incredibly straightforward, but the mysteries and hidden treasures buried underneath it made me feel a way that not many other games have ever made me felt. It may not be quite up to quality to other games, but the legacy it made lead to bigger and better games like Breath Of The Wild, and for that reason I believe this game deserves a 9 out of 10.… Expand

    The reason this isn't a 10/10 from which you'll be able to tell from the other reviews is the controls are annoying at times. Not so in important situation but when on the horse travelling. It's like the horse is made of jelly and you're trying to control it with a Wii remote which is basically me saying, it's annoyingly frustrating at times.

    The original fun factor from the PS2 game does carry through onto this PS4 edition and if you've not visited this game in some years like I did, for a low price I'd definitely recommend getting this, even just for the graphics (Which aren't next gen quality but an improvement nonetheless.)    … Expand

    Going straight to the point, there weren't any major mechanical advances in this new version of the game however if you're a fan of the original it won't matter, as what makes Shadow of the colossus unique is its incredible narrative that guides you through its contemplative scenarios and memorable songs in unique combats where the combination of these elements makes each event unique.

    If you are an old fan of the franchise this game is mandatory, however if this is your first experience, I recommend caution do not expect a big open world with thousands of side quests or something like that, but a remarkable narrative experience where not everything will be played in your face in cutscene.    … Expand

I wouldn't say there bad but they do feel old which makes sense seeing as the game was originally on the PS2. The controls take some time to get use to but again I wouldn't call them bad except maybe the horse which was annoying to control the whole way through. What the game gets right is pretty much everything else though. The visuals on the PS4 are just breath taking when you first experience them. And the boss fights are mostly pretty good. It's like trying to solve a puzzle while also fighting a boss and I love that. Most of the Colossus are great other then maybe 2 of them who were fairly similar to each other. And the finale colossus was a little disappointing if I'm being honest. Along with all that the music is top notch and the story is interesting but also goes on the backburner for most of the game. Most of the plot happens at the beginning and the end of the game with little happening in between you slaying colossus. Which works for what the game is and also helps with the twist that happens by the end. In conclusion Shadow of the Colossus is certainly a unique game and I think that it's a game you should at least try to play once so long as you can deal with some weird controls.… Expand

    Shadow of the colossus es una experiencia única, en la cual si te dejas llevar por su atmósfera te encontraras con un mundo inhóspito, parecerá muerto y vació, pero si ves mas allá tiene mucho mas que contar. Primero que nada la historia es una historia sencilla pero que tiene lo suficiente para mantenerte interesado, eso si, en algunos momentos puede ser "bastante sutil", pero yo creo queShadow of the colossus es una experiencia única, en la cual si te dejas llevar por su atmósfera te encontraras con un mundo inhóspito, parecerá muerto y vació, pero si ves mas allá tiene mucho mas que contar. Primero que nada la historia es una historia sencilla pero que tiene lo suficiente para mantenerte interesado, eso si, en algunos momentos puede ser "bastante sutil", pero yo creo que el mayor atractivo es la parte en donde te subes a lo colosos y los aniquilas, son peleas variadas, a veces tranquilas, a veces mas épicas, pero siempre con un gran nivel de intensidad, es dificil no ve a los colosos y todos los escenarios y no maravillarte con toda la historia que puede ocultar, ese sentimiento de misticismo y nostalgia que te invade, sin duda alguna un juego como ni uno otro, Ahora no todo es tan bueno como parece, el gameplay a veces puede ser un poco torpe, sin mencionar el movimiento de cámara que es bastante molesto en muchos momentos, sobre todo cuando vas en Agro (el caballo). La banda sonora es bellisima y bastante acorde a la atmósfera, ahora si quieres aceptar una humilde opinion, intenta jugar el juego con la banda sonora de Shingeki No Kyojin (si, lo se, una recomendación muy otaku, pero créeme, me lo agradecerás). Sin duda alguna Shadow of the colossus es un juego que cautivo mi corazón y que pasara a ser uno de los mejores títulos que he jugado en toda mi vida.… Expand

    Pros: beautiful art, brilliant boss design
    Cons: took too much time to find a boss, many area looks the same.

    Shadow Of The Colossus is one of the best games I've ever played. I recommend this game to everyone who wants to have a good gaming experience and enjoy good graphics. The only problem with the game is the confusing controls

    An old game that definitely feels aged. SOTC is still an incredible journey and this remake does a wonderful job at bringing the original vision back to life.

    It's still the same PlayStation 2 game just with better graphics. That's it. Compared to an excellent RE2 remake, this is closer to a remaster than an actual remake. Not sure if this is even the best way to experience the game. Obviously, it's the best-looking version, but I felt that some of the original appeal was missing. I still enjoyed it for what it is.

    Gostar ou não de SOTC deveria ser um dos seus métodos de avaliar o caráter de outra pessoa. Clássico cult.

    De vez en cuando aparece un juego “diferente” que nos deja huella y nos recuerda porque tenemos esta bonita afición.

    Debes jugarlo, sin mas.

    Pd: si eres del fifa, del asasin y del calofduti este juego no es para ti

    Perfectly polished and improved cult game – even with better controls! Killing giant monsters has never been so much (melancholic) fun. [Issue#283]

    A tribute to the Fumito Ueda will delight the veterans of the original game same as introduce this classic to the newcomers, who are not tuned on a nostalgic note. An ideal opportunity to improve your video game education and a wonderful experience in the same time. Some clumsy controls and occasionally stubborn camera can’t ruin the great experience.

    It’s a good remaster, but frankly I find it unnecessary. Those who have already played the game on PS2 or PS3 will find nothing new here, and those who didn’t have the chance to get acquainted with it probably will not understand what we saw in Shadow of the Colossus 12 years ago, when gaming reality was completely different.
