it' s over-rated.

The camera is horrid, it takes way too long to travel in between collosus locations and the framerate is awful.

The only good part about the game is fighting the colossus themselves, everything else sucks.

Well Í really dont mind the travel time! The frame rate is nto good, but its a PS2 game, running on a 233Mhz Processor, what do you expect? Iv had no trouble at all with the camera!

And figthing the Colossus is super cool! So that makes it, a super good game! Just like most reviewers says!

Similar situation with me. A friend sent me a demo of the game and it has been sitting on my desktop for several months, untouched.

You guys are strange - Terry why do you get games if you don' t play them? It' s been like that with castlevania also if I remember correctly.

The only way to get Terry to play games is to put them on a UMD format..

It is really the best game on PS2... All they need to do is fine tune the camera
and we are off!

one of the best ps2 games i ever played, and it' s no way overrated... even graphics are awesome for a ps2 game, because the art design is just fabulous.

VX , ps2 cpu is a 300 mhz

The end is perfect... This better than FF7 because it' s shorter and not over done
and doesn' t really have any topless male characters...

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

SotC FTdoubleW... FF7 is too generic, it' s art direction is not better than SotC..

Who cares if Aeries dies, the bitch deserved it for praying in an open area or
wherever the dumb whore was praying..

Hey, I have my reasons for finding him stupid... Do I have to like FF7 because
everyone else does?


Tiz.. you' re stupid... FF7 kicks ass.


It does very well in handing itself its own ass...


A moogle dies for everytime you complain FF7-


Really?

I hate those things!!!!

FF7 sucks - 1 moogle
Aeries is an idiot - 2 moogles
Sephiroth is topless (come on..) - 3 moogles
As much as I like black characters, Barrett was not representing - 4 moogles!!

Down with Moogles!!

I don' t think Joe had a CRT at the time, so he forgot about it, and Terry.. well
I think he' s waiting for a PSP downgraded version, or a patch on Wrestle Kingdom

Yeah it' s STILL like that with the first PS2 Castlevania game. Bought the limited edition import version, messed around with the extra goodies but never got around to playing the game..

I honestly don' t know what' s been going on, lol.. I used to play EVERY game I got no more than half an hour after receiving them (while at home) but things sort of changed the past few years starting with the above mentioned Castlevania game...


The only way to get Terry to play games is to put them on a UMD format..


LOLOL! How close to right you are ;)... But sadly there are even PSP games that I' ve had for a while now that I still haven' t played. Like Minna No Golf, which was bought during the Japanese PSP' s launch window, and also Burnout Legends..

Actually come to think of it, I think I would have played Shadow looooooooong ago had it been in 2D


My god Joe and Terry. I repected you two, I thought " now theres two gamers who perfer gameplay over graphics" but then, as soon as a master peice like Shadow comes along you leave it on your desk and dont play it?

tsk,tsk,tsk


lol, I admit I am guilty as charged... One of my all-time favorite gaming features has always been battling ENORMOUS, larger than life sized bosses, and yet Shadow has a bunch of them and I still haven' t loaded that sucker up yet!

My original lame excuse was going to be that Kikizo already reviewed it so there was no need for me to rush and play through it, but really I have no excuse, especially with the amount of playtime I' ve put into Wrestle Kingdom on the Xbox 360 and PS2!!!



I don' t think Joe had a CRT at the time, so he forgot about it, and Terry.. well
I think he' s waiting for a PSP downgraded version, or a patch on Wrestle Kingdom


Lol, the game has always been on my mind, but I was simply just too lazy to load it up ;).. As for a downgraded PSP version, BRING IT ON I say!!!!! :D


oh and he doesn' t give a fuck about zelda...


You' re quite right about that sir! :D



OK! I PROMISE, I' ll play Shadow by tomorrow!!!!

graphic " sythesizer" =147.456Mhz with 4mb of RAM



66Mhz more or less, its a piece of crap anyway except for that game, and the console does little to help it! It would have been better off on Gamecube or Xbox, too bad hostile takeovers, with guns, of good game companies isnt allowed, MS have enough money to have their own little army!




VX , ps2 cpu is a 300 mhz

typical of VX Chemical to get that wrong.

i wonder why he did..................MAYBE itz because he is................


Well im wrong sometimes, but your wrong about everything you say! You hold no respect except for 12 year old Sony fanboys! Just like yourself!

If they let you teleport straight to the colossus it wouldve been better but the game would only last like 4 hours since 70% of the game is riding your horse around like a moron trying to get to the next colossus.

Yeah but some people (myself excluded) rather get to the action first and don' t really get immersed in the bit that leads up to it. Thats why you' ll find a lot of people hated shenmue because ' ' you walked about too much searching for stuff' ' .

Walking around shitty fields isnt immersive to me, what makes the game great is fighting colossi not about walking around for 2 hours trying to find one - you' re a fucking imbecile.

the question you should ask yourself evil man is " am i an imbecile?"

look at it that way, most critics gave it a " very" good score, there are many fans of that games , and the game itself won many awards ...

now, it' s not possible that evrybody is an idiot right, all those hardcores, profesionals , developers , critics , they all agree about the same thing ..

so again ask yourself " am i an imbecile? " , that' s the truth you should seek my friend ...

Every review I' ve read of the game complains about the excessive travelling to get to the next collosus.

Maybe you should STFU.
