Anybody heard anything about it? I got a demo disk from Playstation the other day, and while I'm still not too sure on the plot I must say that the graphics and music are simply amazing! I mean... the horse alone was so gorgeous that I wanted to cry, it's movements are so realistic!

If I'm not mistaken, there is more than one Collosus (Collussi?). It looks very awesome, however, I liked the old name for it better: Wanda and the Colossus.
It may be a reason to pick up a PS2, if it is as good as they say...

I saw this game on a E3 show this year, and I have to say...


ZOMGSWEETNESS

This game is intense, all you do is kill giant creatures in huge boss fights. The later bosses are super tall, and you have to climb up them to get to their weak spots. This game makes me love owning the PS2 (HAHAHAHA!! PS2 PWNS TEH OTHERS)

Yeah, I realized afterwards that there is more than one. But yeah, it is awesome. My only gripe with the demo is that I was not clear on what I had to do really... and I suck at controlling the horse at times. Still haven't figured out how to kill the Colossus yet though. If only I could get a free copy... but alas, being on the Gamer Advisory Panel does not grant such perks.

So, apparently, the Colossi (Colossuses?) are both the dungeons and the bosses, and the only other forms of enemies I've seen were those shadow things (anybody else think they looked exactly like the enemies from ICO?). From what I can tell, this game will be amazing, and I am going to buy it. This'll be one of the last great PS2 games, and the only other one I know I'm going to buy is Kingdom Hearts 2.

Yes this game looks superb. I have wanted to get this ever since I saw the first trailer/demo. The graphics are a bit choppy here and there but all the colossi look great. This will be a very interested and evolutionary game in my opinion, (like StickMan said) The Colossi are both dungeon and boss. hopefully people actually pick this one up unlike Ico.

The most underrated game in the world with terrible american box art. The ending made me cry. Just buy it. Don't ask questions.

It was basically the first game for the PS2 made by this same company, and I think the games are even somewhat related.

You'd probably recongnize it if you saw a picture or something. The art was amazing for it's time, and throughout the game you had to hold hands with his girl and walk around to places while solving puzzles. The game kind of played like a Zelda-ish game. But yeah, it's pretty underrated, and definitely worth picking up.

I'm pretty hyped about this game, after playing ICO. I still find it hard to believe those are PS2 graphics, the game just simply looks absolutely amazing.

If you have a PS2, get it. Now.

This game is incredibly amazing. Although the game is extremely simple, and there's hardly any depth in it (you start off with your sword and arrow, and you're set for the game), you won't care because this is the best looking game out there.

The intro to the game made me shiver, the music and atmosphere make this game an experience.

I'm only on the 5th Collosi, but I can tell you this game is worth the $40. The environment is huge, the Collosi themselves are pretty much the best things I've ever seen in a videogame (artisticaly) and the music in this game is just incredible.

Get it.
