SotC.

Twilight Princess was a dissapointment for me.

SOTC has a better story, and arguably better atmosphere although a bit dark.

 

I found the story to be rather loose, although I did like the slow transformation and only really noticed it towards the end.

At the time i thought hold on a minute.......

I thought shadow of the colossus was an amazing game and riding agro just felt 'right' somehow.

The game however was COMPLETELY ruined for me by the last colossus. The last colossus was far too easy to kill and although the most epic in physical stature, it was severely lacking in the 'je ne sais quoi' of the rest of the colossi. This destroyed the immersion and made me feel that the game was repetitive in one master stroke.

The last colossus was too mechanical in everything that it did, I didn't even feel remotely sorry for it when it died.

I have not played the new zelda on Wii purely because I feel the game series needs a shift in another direction.

 

 



Endure. In enduring, grow strong.

Shadow of the Colossus is one of the best game I have ever played.



I personally prefer TP, but imho SOTC is awesomely great too. :)
But TP is just... well, Zelda.

Neither...

 

Both just a couple of games that are cool to like.

SOTC easy for me. Very easy. Twilight Princess was probably my least favorite Zelda I've ever played because of the controls. As is the reason most Wii games fail miserably for me, because they force motion controls on you. There should be an option to use a classic controller, and definitely for a game like Zelda.

I could have played it on GameCube, but the 'mirror image' map was retarded to me. Not to mention we only had it for Wii anyway..

Now had you said; A Link to the Past, Majora's Mask, Ocarina of Time - I think all 3 of those are better than SOTC (no disrespect to SOTC). I loved SOTC, and still do. But those 3 Zelda games are 3 of the best games of all time for me, not just in the Zelda series.

 

the wii's map was mirror imaged.    the gamecube was the original.  Link left handed, the hyrule map correct.  Everything in wii version was flipped.  the dessert is supposed to be in the west not the east, ect.



I've never played SotC so I couldn't tell ya what's better of the two. But Zelda, in general as a series, is one of the greatest if not the greatest ever created. Can't go wrong with a Zelda game. But I've heard nothing bad about SotC so it's supposed to be a wonderful game as well. You should enjoy both.

SOTC is horrible in my opinion.

No sarcasm.

Zelda any day.
