Shadow of the Colossus Impressions

Posted by Zonk on Wednesday May 18, 2005 @10:49PM from the his-older-sister-was-awesome dept.

The Ico sequel Shadow of the Colossus has been showing its stuff on the expo floor since the doors opened on Wednesday. IGN, Gamespot, and Gamespy have looks at the upcoming title. From the Gamespy article: "Following the light from your sword will allow you to locate a colossus, but that doesn't mean your approach will be without difficulty. While Ico was focused on a castle, Shadow is focused on the wider world and its natural features." Update: 05/19 23:40 GMT by Z : 1up.com has a look at the game as well.

Not sure why people formed that opinion too much. It is however very useful to compare the two games and see what advances have been made. The screenshots are flabergasting - but it's almost a shame that it isn't Ico 2.

however, if you've seen the trailer, you'll recall a horned boy shown in a split-second sequence, so it might be set in the same world of ICO and share the same mythology.
