"Homage? Inspiration? Or a case of Grand Theft 'Shadow'?
Before I played Ubisoft Montreal's magnificent new 'Prince of Persia,' I saw that comparisons were being drawn between it and Sony's cult favorite PS2 game 'Ico.' Both games are platformers the present a hero who is accompanied and assisted by a lovely woman. In both games, the mechanic of holding hands in fundamental.
But if you thought the 'Prince of Persia' team drew a lot of inspiration from 'Ico,' then wait until you see how much they drew from the other celebrated game made by Fumito Ueda's team at Sony, 'Shadow of the Colossus.'
Without going into spoilers, let's look at some striking similarities."
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.
With the release of The Lost Crown this week, let's take a look at every Prince of Persia game released since the series debuted.
Daman Shelley from NoobFeed writes - Dragon's Dogma is truly a one-of-a-kind game, and there really is no other game like it, but there are a few that come close. Whether with their fantasy settings, the ability to climb mountains, or just with the overall same charm as Capcom’s iconic RPG. Here's a list of games that will hopefully scratch that Dragon's Dogma itch.
I can still hear the title screen music in my head after nearly 12 years. Loved every minute of it.
I have no issues filling my time til DD2.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink, Infinite Wealth and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will probably me more than enough.
More terrified I won't be done in time.
Try not to burn yourself out before the game releases. This is going to be a long and immersive RPG like the first one.
The games in this article are all great and I believe the people who are excited for Dragons Dogma 2 probably already played most of those games.
For now, I recommend you prepare yourself for long play sessions if you will be picking up Dragons Dogma at launch.
Definitely an inspiration. Shadow of the Colossus is still a one of a kind experience though. It also kinda feels like what a Zelda game could be if they went to a more realistic approach.
LOL
WTF
im going to have to say somebody is grasping for a story here
Is 'Prince of Persia' Ripping Off 'Shadow of the Colossus'? More like a improvement Shadow of the Colossus was crap.
