    I tried the MSX versions on Subsistence, and I just don't have the patience for game like that anymore. I wish they'd remake them in either the MGS3 or 4 engines, as the stories sound kickass.

    I never saw any advertising, viral or otherwise, for SotC. I think I'm gonna watch these when I get home. Thanks ascot, you're making me watch commercials for entertainment

    Oh man...

    SotC's ending fucked me up. It was like me and 10 other guys at my house, and one of the guys had beaten it, and the other's had never even seen it, and I was on the 9th guy and they all watched till the end...
    Then when you get all Colossus on fuckers, they were like oh shits and then when you try not to get sucked in but it makes you they were like Dude, cut the crap and move, and I was like I CAN'T THIS GAME HATES ME then we all started crying...

    and then we gave each other hugs and kisses.

    (Let's see how many people I spoil)

    this game was pretty fun
    i played it for like 5 minutes at some sony booth somewhere
    the only thing i did was ride around in the horse and do that shining light thing every couple seconds

    i'm pretty sure the rest of the game sucked

    i only played SotC for like 30 minutes and didn't like it

    and I couldn't get into MGS3 until Subsistence

    I tried at first but couldn't beat the dang virtuos mission

    it is so hard compared to 1 & 2

    like, you beat it once and it's nothing

    it just seemed so different

    I liked Shadow of the Colossus almost as much as I liked Anachronox.

    And I liked Anachronox a lot.



    edit: I seem to have made a mistake. This post contains no content! Let me elaborate. Both games used their game mechanics to cause unexpected emotions. Emotions that didn't result from cut-scenes, but from the way you played the game.

    Editor Jeremy Roush explains, "You could see where someone who was dealing with 9/11 would be engrossed by a giant that keeps collapsing over and over again."

    That is so wrong and yet so funny.
