Super interesting to see how fan theories brought about a new easter egg in the remake. Theres a well made YouTube video detailing everythin
YourMoosieFate
Spoiler alert: there are some people worth the world, don't let slumbering gods stand in your way.
TurtleSuicide
one of my all time favorites

No name, either.

This game is 15 years old. Statute of limitations on spoilers is long over.

Get the lizards

I bealive that is shadow of the colossus. From what I remember great game sadly never got to play it.
sordatos
Beautiful game... #NoHomo but seriously, remaster is amazing, if u love the original try it.

You'll definitely have a new appreciation for horses by the end...
kkanne20
Never played this one but Ico was such a cool game
DrenDranDrooom
You really should play this too
birnamredux
It’s worth the time.
easilybutthurt9000
Don't " reign over" me with rhis.i might as well "cheeadle" my problem " adam" this
Iycelium
The game is great and the soundtrack alone could sell you on it. https://youtu.be/M1bCA67Gcn4
CrystalArborist
Seems a little scary
Iycelium
In some ways the game is. The world is big and empty and everything makes you feel very small. Also a very sad game in many regards.
zecko1916
Loved this game so much that when I got the ps4 version I got the plat trophy. So many lizards. So many NG+...
UncleTeddysTickleTent
Last Guardian was phenomenal as well!
CrystalArborist
I played the VR demo. That was really cool.
VillainVillain
Idk if this is a spoiler just a critique, but I heard its very boring and tons of walking and running
birnamredux
It is intentionally paced. It adds to the story. It is almost meditative.
ImaginaryMamboNumber5
Yup, it serves as a counter to the Colossi and adds to the bleakness and despair that's prevalent throughout the story.
VillainVillain
Gotcha
zecko1916
Its not really that much. You can complete the game on the hardest difficulty in less than 3 hours
VillainVillain
Oooh ok, huh
NinjaBananaDennis
ARO!
slayerX

LikeTotallyNotTheNSA
Dude, that moment was harsh.
zecko1916
No spoilers my guy. But true and it works out in the end
memelover749
That is a huge bitch!
AlexjoneswatchingTporn
Damn boi thats a huge bitch damn!!!!!!
birnamredux
Colossal.

firefit730
Would love a sequel!
zecko1916
Last guardian is the spiritual sequel. Same universe. Actually this game is often considered to be a prequel to ICO.
ImaginaryMamboNumber5
Oh a proper next-gen sequel would be amazing, but I think it would be lost in the current crop of open world titles. This thread has...
firefit730
I was debating whether I should get this, I’m gonna have to pick it up. Thanks for the recommendation!
ImaginaryMamboNumber5
...shown that players today are not massively keen on a game where you mostly travel and meet no NPCs, have no side quests etc and need...
ImaginaryMamboNumber5
...more stimulation from their games. A modern sort of equivalent if you like all the trappings would be Monster Hunter World.
TexMexHex
Playing this right now on ps4. Beatiful game.
thepatioheater
Here's an unpopular opinion. It's infuriating to the point where I stopped playing. The horse handles like shit and the camera is janky
P0werSurg3
Agreed. Janky controls, confusing map, and I'd rather walk while watching YouTube than deal with that damn horse. Cool ideas and designs
BewareTheIceSpiders
I thought it was the best horse in a videogame. It feels like a live horse, like it will take turn by itself while you shoot backward.
BewareTheIceSpiders
But I played on Ps2, dont know if they messed up the controls for the remake.
TheBritishAreComing
Playing it now, and 100% agree. Really enjoy it but glad it's not very long I don't think i'd stick with it
JustJohnny2021
You should play The Last Guardian.... Compared to that game SOTC plays like a dream..
sordatos
I absolutely loved that game, I never understood the attachment ppl had to the horse in SotC, but TLG actually made u care for Trico
NiceBluishHue
Weirdly, I played the PS2 version all the way through and thought it was incredible, couldn't get into the remastered version.
IWouldLickThat
I played both side by side, the original looks grimier but that suits the tone better.
O11i3
Maybe 13 years dented your wonderment and amazement. It’s like going back and playing GoldenEye on N64. People say it’s best left
MAYTechnique
The horse definitely handles like a fucking asshole. Never had any camera issues though in the original or remastered
thepatioheater
For me it was the fact that it had physics, like you couldn't move it through say a collosus arm. It would've been if it went transluct
thepatioheater
so you could still see where you are and be able to interact better. Maybe would have lasted longer
BigtimeChefGuy
I dunno, i played the ps2 version and i thought it was fair. It was kind of hard to play the bit where you have to stand on your horse to
BigtimeChefGuy
Be able to shoot arrows, but i think it makes sense for that to be at least mildly difficult.
drfre
The struggle is kind of the point.
BigOrkWaaagh
I agree. I hated almost every minute of it, although for some reason I did play to the end. It looks beautiful though.
thepatioheater
True. I enjoyed being in the world just not having to do precise controls
BorrowAFeeling
Have to agree, couldn't wrap my head around the controls and was just turfed off too many Colossus that I gave up in frustration.
Nize426
Yeah, I bought the remake on PS4 and the controls were pretty shit. I stopped playing half way and just read the spoilers.
tylerPumpkinTraveler
tylerPumpkinTraveler
In all seriousness, I’m a little baffled why this is one of my favorite games of all time. I mean it IS. I just can’t quite pin why
thepatioheater
The idea, world, atmosphere are all fantastic. If the controls were better it would have been up there for me too
SomethingTittyWitty
imgonnahurtu
I beat the game and agree. Concept is great but gameplay is frustrating in the wrong way. Story concept is cool, but execution is meh.
spectrumchris
My "favourite" was one of the charging bosses who comes back around faster than your character's "get up" animation. -__- super concept tho
thepatioheater
I feel if it was a mix with BotW it would have been absolutely fantastic, but spending half the game trying to find the next boss on the>
thepatioheater
bloody horse!!! It got me so annoyed that I couldn't enjoy the bosses!
P0werSurg3
Agreed. Janky controls, confusing map and I would rather walk while watching YouTube than deal with that damn horse. Cool designs and ideas
P0werSurg3
Couldn't stop me from quitting halfway through. I wasn't having fun and swearing constantly
thepatioheater
Exactly the same dude
CountFragula278
Don’t want to ruin anything for you, but there are big bosses in that game.
AlteR11121
Snaaaaake
Stratego89
One might call them... colossal.
IconicM
Also, lizards.
1Raio
And not the Metal Gear kind of "Big Boss". Some literally big bosses
BannedbyastupidMod
some tiny ones as well!
DisguisedLochNessMonster
Do you mean the one with eye patch and bionic arm ?
IThinkYouGotAFineBrainJack
Huge spoiler alert.
PracticeDummy
Some people would say they are... colossal...
BigUglyBear
LordVulpix
Everyone dies.
Bombideer
I heard they cast some rather large shadows, too
Maclam24
Also Spoiler Alert! It ends eventually.
AllBoobsAreGreat
Not it you stop halfway loke all other games. Then it never ends
3lv3n
Spoiler, it has a menu and background music!
Crawmak
It may or may not contain lizards.

NO SPOILERS
VillainVillain
Wasnt it very boring, like, almost no gameplay and tons if dead space?
Vamp13
No, it wasnt a traditional game though, and definitely an acquired taste
AlexjoneswatchingTporn
Like walking simulator 2 this time with ghosts
Vamp13
It's a good game, doesnt waste your time with trash and the twist is awesome.
Oprean
but I liked that
44no44
Yes, though that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's meant to deliver on an experience more than being "fun" in the traditional sense.
VillainVillain
Yea I can see its appeal, of a story thing, and I love story based games, never played it but saw tons of gameplay, mostly walking or horse
ImaginaryMamboNumber5
The dead space served as a counterpoint to the single large bosses and conveys the feeling of ennui or despair that goes with the story.
Rulesy
Battletoads
EDDDDDDD
Still comes with the free Wii strap?
Rawounduoli
Shadow of the colossus. It came out for ps2 in 2005 and they remastered it for ps4 in 2018.
MyCommentsUsuallyHaveTypos
Remastered, you say?
moon2A
Remake not remaster
somnus13772
No spoilers!
Inarticulated
It was also upscaled for PS3 in a HD pack with Ico. #SpoilerOwl
IThinkYouGotAFineBrainJack
Which one is the above from?
boneywasawarriorwayayix
The original I believe
birnamredux
Yes. It’s from the PS2 version.
mememan19
Yes
fennecbutt
Awwww. Not on pc then I take it. I don't buy consoles tbh
imcrimson
The game emulates great on PCSX2. That was what I played it on.
ItHappenedInThe20thCentury
That's great to know! Not really in the mood to set up my old PS2 again but I could go for some SotC.
birnamredux
You don’t need a console for this game. It was released around 2006. Emulation should work. It’s a really good game.
Delta357j
This game is what I’d bring up if I was trying to prove that video games can be works of art.
rholmstrom865
A tale of two sons for me, a must play for people with siblings, and a must to use some kind of d-pad. Its an easy puzzle more like a movie.
EtherealRune
You are a fucking sadist for suggesting it as a must play for people with Siblings. I've beat that game >=(
AnActualTsundere
Nier Automata.
azraelsorrow
Found the weeb
CrystalArborist
Environments in Witcher 3, Assassins Creed Odyssey, and Horizon Zero Dawn can be pretty breathtaking
AstroFizX
Grim Fandango
birnamredux
Agreed.
Flodos
Portal 1 and 2 for me.
AlexjoneswatchingTporn
What about beyond two souls that game changed me
PorneliusHubart
Doesn't have to be pretty to be art either. Spec Ops:The Line. You think it's a run of the mill shooter but you're wrong
Hobbes777
LoZ Windwaker for me. I was so ticked when they went with a “cartoony” style, but when I finally got it I got lost in that w beautiful game
LikeTotallyNotTheNSA
The score. Fuck, it's awesome.
Ethanb12007
I usually say Ikaruga
DaPastry
I understand why people think tjat way but I don't understand how they can keeo thinking that way when looking at titles like this.
Sharkshavemouths
....wut?
GadenKerensky
Ori is another one, that game is just so pretty.
DarkBadTheShameless
CrystalArborist
Fauxcused
Diablo III looks like a live action painting
OldJedi
Okami!!
NyQuilDaydream
My recommendation would be, What Remains of Edith Finch, the animation and story are amazing and it's one of the few games that make me cry.
UnholyMoses
Yes! That and Ryme
Courier87
I think I've played it through 3 times now, still gets me every time
Vaars
Ori and the blind forest for me. But yeah, this game is fantastic
dailysuicidalthoughts
I usually bring up Journey.
Shrodinger13
Sky: Children of the light. iOS and Android. Hold share and the ps button for Bluetooth mode. Destress at lunch with it every so often.
IconicM
True, but this predates Journey... Both great, artistic games though!
chuckles11
Limbo or Inside for me
LikeTotallyNotTheNSA
The score is so good.
rockarolla
Same. I was going to make this exact comment if someone else hadn't
Vaars
Just picked that up on steam. Never played but I've only heard great things
sillymissmillie
It is such a good game. Just finished my first play-through, I hope you enjoy it. One of my all time favs. Play it all in one sitting (2hrs)
Scahrossar
Go in as blind as p[ossible and try to finish it in one sitting. Its not that long.
Kleinstlebewesen
play it in one sitting and go in open minded. it was a short but cool thing
Cammo353
It's on steam now?
Vaars
Yup
darkninja2992
Same. That game almost made me cry. Almost.
dailysuicidalthoughts
First time playing through journey, right out the gate, someone was waiting for me on-top of the first hill, just sitting there, waiting.
dailysuicidalthoughts
I approached, and they started chiming at me, so I followed them, they showed me all the secrets, and all the backdrops.
dailysuicidalthoughts
At the end, climbing up the mountain, before w everything goes white. They drew a heart in the snow.
nrvagntsoleatr360
I would recommend that plus Never Alone and RIME.
blairsette
Unravel, Ori and The Blind Forest
AustralopithecusBoisei
RIME... good game, that will manipulate your feelings without you noticing...
nrvagntsoleatr360
TRUTH! I cried a little at the end.
