Its an excellent game, but merely good when compared to the marverlous ICO.

"""Rubbish controls, constant framerate issues and an awful camera killed the game for me. ""

Time to Work !
Anyone who didn't have frame rate issues with this game has a very weird idea of what a good frame rate is. Drops in frame rate were pretty drastic at times, but then again they often worked in a dramatic manner, say a colossus slammed its foot in the ground right next to you, and at the same moment the game went into slow motion. You'd almost think they planned it that way. =P
I really enjoyed this game due to its epicness and uhh.. think it deserves to have me write about it in the morning when I can think straight.
I love this game! I bought it a year ago, but still haven't finished it, because I can't find the 13th Colossi, and it feels so cheap when I look stuff up on GameFAQs. I still haven't finished REmake for the same reason.
My only gripe with the game was that some of the Colossi weren't epic enough. The Wall Shadow and Flame Guardian didn't give me that sense of "awe" that many of the others did. I wish there would've been more like the Sleeping Giant.
Btw, how did y'all beat the Flame Guardian? After I got him to fall of the ledge the first time and then jumped on him, I couldn't figure out what to do. I just ran my ass off across the area with the little lagoons, until I eventually ended up on the cliff on the other side. He wouldn't follow me up for some reason, so I went around and jumped on his back. I spent like 10 min. just running around trying to get away from him, lol.

Sorry Dolla, the game just played schlecht. But my opinion shouldn't stop you from enjoying the game. |
I'll give you the camera issues, but the controls were fine, and I had no framerate problems that I can remember.
This game is definitely one of my all-time favorites; a vast epic featuring an incredibly immersive and atmospheric world and some of the best visual design on the PS2, bar none. The frame rate drops were of course unfortunate, but were a small price to pay for the amazing, emotional experience this game offers.

definitely absolutely amazing game. when i first started playing it i was pissed cuz i realized all you do is fight 16 bosses, theres no actual game, just bosses. but as i played through it i realized the grandeur of the whole thing and it is truly epic. its a weird game. so devoid of classic ideas about what makes a game good yet that is what makes it so unique and so incredibly good. yeah the controls aren't that tight, and the framerate slows down some, and the camera sometimes doesn't work too well, but those things do nothing to lessen the greatness of the game. now i just need to get my hands on ico!

The game is good but I wanted to beat it quickly and by wanting to do so, I ended up using a walkthrough.
It completely screwed my whole gaming experience, since then I have never used a walkthrough again.
