Just beat the game and feeling mighty accomplished! Now I'm debating running it again to build the stamina bar to max and climb the shrine for the secret garden. Have any of you done this...or better yet, received a platinum on the PS3? Game is so good...I need to experience ICO soon as I hear it is pretty good in it's entirety.

I played, and completed Shadow of the Colossus on hard mode for PS2. I finished all time attacks, and gotten all the unlocks. Like White Aggro, and Queen's Sword. This game is freakin' epic, and a classic. If you keep upgrading your stamina, eventually it'll turn invisible which is pretty neat. I also enjoyed the little things, like climbing to the top of that tower thing in the beginning, and seeing a glimpse of Ico's castle in the distance. I enjoyed trekking through that long, long, long bridge.
Ico is also fantastic. These two games are so good, I ended up buying the HD Collection for PS3. I've yet to actually play the HD Collection though.
This is one of my favorite epic BGMs ever:

A fine track indeed!! I know I'll play SOTC again but really want to start Tales of Graces F. Bought it on sale a few weeks ago and haven't even launched it. I love me some RPGs in all forms..strategy, action, tactical, adventure...you name it, I'm game!

Have you ever played Zone of the Enders 2? It's hands down the best mecha game ever imo.

I never played SoC yet. One time I saw a friend borrow it from another friend and play it while I was playing Dungeons and dragons with some other friends and...I saw absolutely nothing except the poor guy wandering around aimlessly on horseback, with seemingly no clues or enemies or towns or nothing.

That's part of the greatness that is SOTC!! The game doesn't hold your hand through completion. You get a couple clues to find and defeat each Colossi...the sword shines and targets their location. The world is absolutely gorgeous and even better in HD.

I still have SotC on my backlog, but I really enjoyed ICO. I'm replaying Shenmue right now, after that I'll head for it.

Yeah, like I said, I never played the game before, never seen the game before, and was actually playing dungeons and dragons, so if the game told you about shining swords or whatever I didn't know it. I can appreciate a game doesn't hold hands more than most people but fact is if you weren't aware of such a mechanic, wandering around aimlessly without a CLUE (not talking about hand-holding you to your destination, but no clue at all) would make a dumb game =P

You'll know everything by the start. Of course it won't hold your hand through colossus fights as they're meant to be like a puzzle of sorts.

Ahhh Shadow of the Colossus, awesome game. This is one of those games that are pure art: you can absolutely love it or hate it completely. I enjoyed it a lot. I tryed to made some friends play it back then in the PS2 days, but they were not patient enough to enjoy travelling the region, look at the sky, climb to a tree just to stare the horizon, and not patient enough to take a loooonng journey to the next colossus, or even defeating the first one. I ended the game and OOOHH POOR ARGO! I cried with it's tragic destiny, I really cried! ='( BUT that was only before the final boss! The ending is one of those who let's you imagine so many things.
Great game, I'll play it again right now =)

SoTC was great. One of the few games that made me tear up a little bit at the ending.

(...)Yes, the game is so nice to just admire the scenery. Did you start it up again?? YUP I played it again. The fist time I played it I haven't notice I could hunt lizards to increase my strength! I mean, I did hunt some of those lizards the first time, but it wasn't like I HAVE TO find them all! If I hunted one ok and if not, baahh! The second time I tried to find them all to climb to the secret garden area! Also I always tried to hunt those glowing white birds that flew when you were back beside your beloved after beating a Colossus!! Once I HUNTED one of those birds! I was excited "What did I just get? =D Nothing -_ xD XD " But the pleasure to hunt it was my reward ^^ hehehehe
