What ? SOC is free to PS+ members. Does it still count as a sell ?

sengoku3911d ago (Edited 3911d ago )

it's not counting the download of plus members.

i have to say i have been waiting to play this game for a very long time and it definitely didn't let me down. even though it's from a different area of gaming it's still hold is own against many much newer games it's a definitive classic must have title.
Congrats to team sony and Fumito Ueda

Curse you, Europeans! Always getting the better PSN games.

Only kidding, I love Europe. Just....curse you Europeans at the specific moment that you get better PS+ games than we do.

Im glad SOTC game is doing well and more people are getting to experience it!

It was one of those PS2 games, for me personally at least, that was a defining moment in my gaming history. I always blabber on to friends about this game and force them to try it!

p.s it actually looks really good in 3D too!!

Minato-Namikaze3911d ago

That game had me in awe the entire time. My GF loved to watch me play and she said it was like watching a sad movie, lol.

beepbopadoobop3911d ago

I know what you mean, there are so many jaw droppingly beautiful moments, the story is so simple yet engaging, its more of an experience than just a game!

There is actually allot of replayability too if you get into it, have you made it to the secret garden?

TheGrimReaper00113907d ago

Yeah, it's nice to see it's doing well!
So maybe we can get some info on The Last Guardian, Ico?
Please? Pretty please? >_<

Minato-Namikaze3911d ago

No, but i did do 3 playthroughs. Dont have as much time for games as i once did. I do want this platinum though.

AirJohnston3911d ago

I only played it through the first 2 Colossi a few years ago, so I might need to pick this up sometime.

As far as games as an art form is concerned, this game is it for me. Little dialogue yet somehow made me care about the characters (even the horse Agro!). I'm no scriptwriter but I don't think that's easy to pull off.

Shadow Of the Colossus Retro Review – A Colossal Experience in a Beautiful World

Zachary M. Cain said: Shadow of the Colossus is hailed as one of the best action-adventure titles of its time. The game was originally released for the PlayStation 2 all the way back in 2005. It was so good in fact, it got a remastered version in 2018 for the PlayStation 4 and was well received by old and new fans alike. Let’s revisit this iconic classic in 2024 and see how well it holds up to its past reputation.

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

anast81d ago

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

AlterRecs78d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast78d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs77d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast77d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer81d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing6981d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs78d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6978d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.
