Poll: How did Shadow of the Colossus make you feel ?

[ribonuge]

I'm replaying this at the moment, and I must say it is one of the finest games I have ever indulged in. But I can't help feeling like i'm destroying whatever shreds of decency I have left. It has teased emotions from me like no other game and made me find it hard to continue. I may be a complete wuss but at least I'm admitting it, Tell me I'm not alone.

You need some less extreme poll options. Yes, I played it, and no, I didn't like it. I didn't hate it either though, it just bored me.

It was a great game and all, but the ending left me confused and unsatisfied. And while I generally like odd and unique endings, this one just left me feeling like I'd been cheated.
Still, amazing game. Easily one of my favorite PS2 action titles.

I've played it and it's pretty good. I wouldn't say I was all emotional over ir, it's just a game after all, but overall I though it was a good game. Also, I think you need some less... Extreme poll options.

Yeah I was a bit extreme I admit. When I say emotional I mean in terms of video games.

I was trying to be a bit more intersting - Gawd.

How did it make me feel... bored.

Not enough went on... I dont really like horses... I dont like being bored... and playing a game to cure me of boredom only to find that the game itself bores me is also not to my liking.

What was I doing before playing it: Sitting, Walking, Nothing.

What did I spend most of my time in-game doing: Running, Climbing, Nothing.

It was an amazing game, you could say it was a little slow or a pain to find each colossus. But when you really get into the game you start to appreciate how vast and huge it really is, And

*BIG SPOILER HERE* when agro died *wink* before fighting the last colossus I really felt very sad that he died *wink* *END SPOILER*

anyway maybe not very heavy story involved but when you think about it you really didn't know much more than the main character did.

Played it, loved, and no. I killed them dead, and maybe felt for a second that this might not be so nice seeing as the sad music and the falling giants who just wanted to wander their respective plains were being stabbed to death...

I don't think I got the most out of this game till the second playthrough, just like Bioshock; I thought the Big Daddies in that game would attack on sight. You can imagine the kind of hijinks that led to...

Lonely. Desolate even.

Sure.... Whatever you say. I would've been more interested if there was an option that worked for me, though.

 

[ribonuge]

It just really absorbs me in when I play it. I like the mysteriousness of the setting, it's like the land is alive. In my opinion it is art in video game form.

 

[Julianking93]

I was sad. So depressing.

Killing these giant beautiful creatures in order to bring back your girlfriend.

Sad.

 

[Spiner909]

I loved the boss fights, the story was convulted and crappy as possible. I mean THAT ENDING WAS JUST WTF.

 

[HardRockSamurai]

My experience with SoC was a great one. Playing the game felt like a wonderful daydream.

 

[cambodiancam]

Meh it was alright, I just hated the ditsy colossus's who'd let you stab their palm and not even try to smash you. Also the last boss was way to easy!

 

[SantoUno]

I haven't played it, I would give it a try but I can't play PS2 games.

 

[Thaius]

An amazing game. Full of original gameplay concepts, and easily the holder of some of the most epic moments in all of gaming. The ending was extremely emotional, too: the use of interactive inevitability in the ending sequence was heart-wrenching, despite an overall underdeveloped story.

 

[Chancie]

I loved it. < 3 Easily one of my favorite PS2. The whole game was amazing, yes, but the ending totally made it truly spectacular for me. It actually made me cry. xD
