This is a game about a boy who wants to save his true love from death. To do this he must fight 16 Colossi, along with the help of your trusty stead. It's just you(aka the boy) and your horse in this vast land, that is until you find the "Shadow of the Colossus".

The fact that there are no other enemies to fight in the game other than the colossi. Another thing I loved is the details the game designers spent on the landscape, the map, the boys' horse, the boy himself, and of course each colossus. Another great thing is that the horse actually acts like a horse, if you tell it to do something it doesn't want to do, it won't do it. Last, but not least the music is phenominal too.

The only thing I didn't really like was trying to find each colossi. The land is so big that it could take between five and twenty minutes to actually find the giant.

Let others play it and watch them play it, because it's just as fun to watch someone play as it is to play it yourself.

Totally drawn in. Completely realistic, almost like this world really existed.

It's 100% unique in every way. You'll find no other game like it out there on the market today.
