11. Shadow of the Colossus (Playstation 2 – 2005)

I don’t think I can say much about Shadow of the Colossus that hasn’t been said already. The game is absolutely epic and incredibly touching. A game that consists solely of boss fights should not work on paper, but the depth of the encounters and the experience of looking for them in this engaging world, makes for a phenomenal experience. The fights themselves are big puzzles, and it is very satisfying to finish off these creatures, or is it? The game is not afraid of making the player question the morality of their actions. The minimalistic approach to story and gameplay strengthens the experience, and makes for a great work of art.
