Bosses
Shadow of The Colossus comes from the makers of ICO. It's said to be the next ICO but people think that its dark story is different from ICO. You play a heartbroken warrior, who takes a princess to the temple. The warrior asks the gods to bring back the princess. They tell him that he can, only is he could defeat the 16 colossi that rule the land. With his loyal steed, the warrior goes off to a journey to bring back his love and defeat the 16 mystical beasts.
The bosses in The Shadow of the Colossus are the biggest bosses ever in a video game. The only way to defeat them is to climb up onto their bodies and try to find their weak points. Usually people think that it would be a beat 'em up, surprisingly it isn’t! You have to climb onto the beast, it's like a puzzle. Once you've found their weak point, a few stabs and they're dead. The creators also said that some of the bosses may be mechanical or beast, but they want you to decide (They did this to stimulate your brain, In My Opinion that's kind of retarded).
The creators wanted to create a beautiful and visual world so that the players would be happy while playing the game. The world is massive and makes the world graphically superb. Somehow they managed to create a large world with excellent graphics. However there's a twist! The world is so big that you can get lost easily and there are LAG problems because of the graphics. You have your horse to ride around the area and there aren't people in the game so it does get lonely. The gameplay is okay but it's different. They changed the controls around. They made it unfamiliar to people who play these types of games which was a wrong move. They've also decided to add a grip meter, so when you climbing a colossi you could fall off if the meter runs out, another annoying move. You have three weapons your fist, sword and arrow that you change with the right d-pad. The sound is amazing. Overall Shadow of the Colossi is an amazing and beautiful game which is accepted from the makers of Ico.
