Shadow of the Colossus THREAD

[ForensicYOYO]

I couldn't help but make a thread about this game. Last Gardian will be coming out soon so Ive been playing Shadow of the Colossus to get me ready.
Now for those of you who have played this game I want to know what was your favorite Colossus and which one other then the last one was the hardest. O and im curious how many of you can name the animal of each Colossus. The last one doesn't count because it's a tower. I can name 10.

My favorite was the Lion. My hardest was the one you have to turn over with the geysers.

My two favorite were the two "small" collosi. They were absolutely terrifying and a blast to play against. Seriously, you spend half the game trying to climb the big motherfuckers and all of a sudden you're in an underground chamber or something trying to run away from a friggin dog or lion or whateverthefuck it is made of friggin' stone. I was screaming the entire time I was fighting them.

My favorite by far was the flying Sand Dragon. I would just sit on my horse and watch it fly....then chase it down and murder the crap outta it. The hardest by far for me were the "small" bastards, spent most of the fight ragdolled.

Agreed on all counts, with the possible exception of 'hardest to beat'... for me it's a tie between those small rabid maniacs and the huge tortoise on the geyser plains.
Anyway, yes, the flying Sand Dragon is absolutely magnificent. Killing it made me feel horrible.

I personally liked the one with the huge sword (I think it was the 3rd one).

Spoiler

I always like to caption this picture with "Oh...shit..."

 

[Shadowfaze]

My fave was the water beastie that you have make climb on the little stone buildings and jump on his chest hair. i could beat him in 40 seconds. Hardest was the UNDERWATER one. God, that was a freaking nightmare

Thirteen is by far the best boss I've ever played against. All bosses in the game are great, but none of them come even close to match that one.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

This game frustrated me so, so much... it made me feel like a skill-less noob

I still loved it though, despite how hard I found it.

Favorite Colossus: The flying one in the desert, by far

 

[ciancon]

My favourite.....the eel i think. I hated trying to swim after it but once i was on it's back it became incredibly fun!

Hardest was definitely the last one, i had to look it up to find out that i had to *SPOILER ALERT* shoot it in the shoulder with my bow. It would never have occured to me. Other than that, the gueyser one pissed me off immeasurably, he just wouldn't step over one of them for me!

It is absolutely heartbreaking watching it die... the scene is so beautiful and sad it made me cry like a pussy.

My favourite was number 13, just watch the video Hubilub posted; at 4:00 you get to see an amazing shot of just how big and beautiful the battle was. For me is also seemed the most dangerous, despite it being largely passive. As the colossus spun through the air, the fall from it just seemed far worse than any of the others (excluding the last one due to the darkness of the battle; more a building than beast.)

I also doubt The Last Guardian is coming out too soon, it wasn't even at this years E3.

 

[Harlemura]

What was the first colossus? Yeah, that's the only one I've ever fought, so that one.
If I ever find out where my PS2 wondered off to, I should really give it another go. Just worried it'd seem disappointing thanks to "over-hype syndrome", something Portal seems to have fallen horribly ill with.

It has a set date on November 1st this year. And its going to be the main game in the Tokyo Game show in september.

Before my Brother stole it away, I got all the way up to the eigth boss, and had such a hard time with mister Gecko-Lightning guy. I never had the chance to beat him, sadly... but I must say my favourite boss that I did play was most definately the Underwater Eel. It had such beautiful grace to its movements, and such a great challenge to the battle...and it was fucking AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Dexiro]

The flying one in the desert is my favourite ^_^

The snake was really fun too, that you shoot while riding the horse.

 

[KungFuCthulhu]

The smaller ones and the flying ones were my favorites. The colossus in the lake where you had to hit the stones on its head was the hardest for me.

 

[loremazd]

I was rather fond of the bird, really. It was a simple fight but liked the speed and height it had.

Hardest.... the gecko thing probably killed me more than the others.

Source?

I've had a quick search and there doesn't seem to be any concrete evidence of this.

 

[Lullabye]

My favorite is the 3rd one. You know, the sword guy?
the hardest was proly the one small one where you have to push it off a cliff by waving fire in its face. you know how long that took me to figure out?
