So today, after an intense week of 16 non-stop boss battles, I finally beat Shadow of the Colossus. I just want to thank all the people who persuaded me to play this game next. You were all totally right, and I am really glad that I did. I don't want to say too much now, because I want to write my thoughts up in a blog which I'll post in a couple days, but all I can say right now is that was one the most incredible video game experiences I have ever had!

So is everyone ready for the final week of February? I know I am? How many people are getting Killzone 2 at the end of the week? Please raise your hands! I got a chance to play the demo this week, and I have to say I am pretty excited. I must admit it doesn't seem to bring anything new to the FPS genre at all, but it will be nice to have a PS3 exclusive that actually can live up to the hype. After all the other failed attempts, like Lair, Haze, and Heavenly Sword, it will be nice for the PS3 to have a game that it can hype to sell more systems. I hope to see you all online next Friday night for the first Dtoid Killzone 2 FNF. Until then, this is SilverDragon signing off ....

Now to the recaps of the day ...

Awesome recap as always. Nice touch with the dragon pictures too.

Oh and I'm about three or four bosses into the game. It really does make you feel like the most amazing hero ever and the idea of this epic quest that only gets crazier, from what I've seen and played, is amazing.

Congrats for finishing SotC! I'm glad you found it a rewarding experience. I just might be playing that again in the near future. Also, thanks for the Topsauce.

Sounds like you enjoyed SotC as much as I did, and finished it around the same time too :)
