The PlayStation 2's magnum opus is taking a step closer to hitting the big screen.
Josh Trank, whose previous credits include Chronicle, is taking the helm of the Sony Pictures backed movie. Whether Shadow of the Colossus makes any further moves towards theatres or fades away into obscurity (as so many video game movies have done in the past) remains to be seen. Trank is currently working on a reboot of the Fantastic Four and on a Venom spinoff so it may be some time before we get any concrete details for photography or even a script.

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.
The PS2 is one of the most celebrated consoles of all time, and what makes it better is that a lot of its games have managed to age better than most.
As PlayStation celebrates its 30th anniversary, let's explore the best PlayStation games Sony has to offer.
There's too many games to choose from
No Metal geat solid 1,2,3,4?
No Resident evil?
No Silent hill?
No Midnight club 3?
No NfS Underground 2?
No Final Fantasy?
No Burnout 3?
No Dragon quest 8?
No Days gone?
No Ace combat?
No Tekken/Soul calibur?......
just from the top of my head
PS1 era was full of great RPGs, PS2 was racing generation i would pick top 200 and even that would be just a fraction.
30 is way too low over the entire history of Playstation, I just wouldn't be able to narrow it down that much, I would pick 100 at least.
Yeah...really odd list. I get that it is personal preference and I love most of the games listed, but my list would definitely be different. I agree though, it would be incredibly difficult to come up with just 30.
I only picked first-party titles. Otherwise, I agree!
EDIT: Except for Days Gone, I don't get the love for it but you do you!
Not a bad director. Loved Chronicle a lot more than I thought I would
Cool hopefully hes a fan of the game and doesn't try turning it into something different.
No offense but the guys done one film and did some stuff for The Kill Point
I don't understand how Sony can take a chance with something highly rated as Shadow of the Colossus with a no name director who lets be honest got lucky with Chronicle...it was good but not that good, but when it comes to the Uncharted movie they can't even take that kind of chance and give Nolan, Emily and Richard their parts...hell not even let Amy Hennig write the film or at least rewrite the game script for Uncharted Drakes Fortune to suit the big screen
Come on Sony
He doesn't have enough experience.
Well for it to be a movie they have to change it at least a little. Watching a movie with no talking and just slowly searching for a Colossus one at a time may not exactly be an attraction for everyone. They are going to have to spice it up at least a little.
@ MikeCosgrove.I think you are being overly harsh. How is Chronicle just getting lucky? Why couldn't to be he had a good idea and executed it properly? Do you also think the people who made their first movie were also lucky that it worked? Everyone was a 'no named director' at some point in their life.Besides with the notorious way game movies always end up do you really believe that they could get any high end director to do this.
