Making a game like this in the PS2 era is really mindblowing, and I'm fairly certain it is only possible _because_ the world is completely barren, so all the console had to render was the collossus (and probably why you can't see them in the distance). However, with modern day computers and development resources, I think making a game with moving and climbable giants like this isn't super difficult anymore. There isn't anything like it being built, because it would ultimately be compared do Shadow of the Colossus, and wouldn't be as stylish. It's a really high bar to beat.
It would be sort of like Breath of the Wild, with the Divine Beasts and everything, and Hyrule Castle, but with 16 colossi. That would be really cool now that I think about it.
I want to make a Sotc inspired game and I'll pull it off. But it won't be the same, I respect this game way too much. My main inspirations are SOTC, NieR games and God of War.
1:42:52 I just noticed, when he’s really close to the horse, he calls to him as if he were right next to him, but as he gets further away, he yells, and then once he’s far enough, he whistles. Really sweet attention to detail, if it’s actually intentional.
I'm sure it was intentional. It wouldn't make sense for Wander to just talk to Agro when Agro is half the map away, running to catch up to Wander, and I believe Team Ico knew that.
They do it even more so in The Last Guardian. I remember counting at least 3 or 4 different tones of voice that the boy calls Trico depending on the situation. He even whispers his name if he's in a really dark area or there are guards nearby.
pretty much the same as red dead 2 then. characters farther away from each other will speak louder to hear each other and if ur too far away from ur horse instead if saying "here boy", arthur just whistles
Very first thing I wanted to comment on. Jack's great, but the editor(s) make these things a work of art. (I"m _still_ giggling over the "hecking chonker" edit from GoW:Ragnarok.)
@@mithiwithi Robin's a god-send. She's been here for years and is hard to top. You can really see the difference in quality when Yates was doing some of the Ragnarok videos; he's not so good with the subtly like Robin.
I love how Jack said he's going to be talking a lot during cut-scenes and almost immediately gets so sucked in, that he forgets. So good to see him having a good time playing one of his favorite games.
3:02:39 To this day, the Game Grumps play through of this game, with Arin emotion-bating Dan in preparation for this scene, is one of the fondest memories I have involving this game.
I like that in the remake they made the theorized easter egg real and you can collect the sword of dormin so cool to have that added after all that time
@@klaudiso only in the PlayStation version as far an I know however after collecting the coins you can go to the secret passage and get the sword of dormin it’s better than even the Queens sword which is unlocked by beating all time trials in hard
I also picked up this game on a whim. Walked into my local game store, and out of rows upon rows of mediocre used ps2 games, I just so happened to pick this one up and decide to get it. $5 for one of the coolest games I've ever played.
I got it as a birthday present the year after it came out because I played a demo in the store and fell in love with it. Little 8 year old me 100% that game on the ps2.
Honestly this couldn't have gone up on a more perfect day. This is my first christmas away from home, and this is just the right amount of nostalgia. Really perked up my mood. Thanks man, thanks a bunch.
Was my first Christmas out on my own as well, was super lonely so having a game I remember playing with my brother as a child and being entranced by back when it came out helped
Sean's quick comment about how much emotion used to be ingrained in Wander's face, how it looked like he was troubled even beyond this scenario, has really made me rethink the character and add so many layers to him. The idea that he's not just """a stupid kid who made a bad choice for young love""" and had more layers of other awful stuff going on that we'll never really know about, that he made this choice not just because he loves Mono in... some way (romantic? familial? friends?) but because he was acting out on deeper, unknowable motivations that tied into it all
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Avion, Phalanx, Hydrus, Dirge, Quadratus, and Gaius are the coolest colossi. Griffin, Phoenix, Spider, Worm are ones I really wished made it into the game. 20 colossi definitely sounds better than 16, right guys?
I mean definitely would have been nice to have had all of the 24 original colossi. Devil, Griffin, Phoenix, Roc, Saru, Sirius, Spider and Worm. You can actually find the location of 6 of the 8 unused and modeled colossi. Saru and Griffin were never placed on the finished map. Saru was an albino monkey that you had to fight in a cave and he would be hanging from the ceiling. Griffin's test area seems to indicate you would have had to use fire to scare the colossus into exposing its weakpoints. Griffin's fight would have probably been too much like the Celosia fight which is why it was cut. Spider was actually in an early demo version and was cut because it required wander to make horizontal slashes while on horseback which was scrapped during development because it was too janky. Generally most of the unused colossi were scrapped because they were having difficulty implementing and balancing the combat strategy. Some of the cut colossi were also cut for redundancy and for time. Fumito Ueda said that he had originally planned for 48 colossi but cut it down to around 24 to model and then the final 16 based off strategy. The final colossi went through a lot of development, originally being like a bull colossi and then later being redesigned into the towering immobile colossi malus.
@@HailKosm you should look into the fan project "beyond the far lands" they're taking all of the data mined colossi and putting them into the game, would recommend
@@EliteY33t2 that's very cool, some of the unused colossi had really cool strategies for defeating them, it was unfortunate that the PS2 tech at the time didn't really allow it. So I'll definitely check that out. I also looked into their next game seems very strange the only pictures are like a little light girl and like a weird scaly fist. Very intriguing
I hope they remake Ico one day. It could really use it, and it would put it on par with SotC and The Last Guardian! Then we'd have the whole Team Ico trilogy in HD and accessible on modern platforms.
@@Varrbariouss No. It was re-released on PS3 along with SotC, but I think it was even more of a port than even a remaster. It's never gotten a remake though.
This weekend I watched "Gab Smolders" doing a chill Christmas game and she laughed out loud that she heard Sean yell "and his name is John Cena!" Then I found it just over an hour into this video! I knew I'd run into it eventually! Thank you for Nostalgia week! And Chainsaw Man rules!
29:05 "Maps are kinda boring to me." This hurts my heart as a social studies teacher, those words cut deeper than any blade. I freaking love maps, they tell so many stories.
@@Aanteatur AWESOME! I like all maps. I never use a GPS when traveling, I study the route via Google Earth and memorize my exits. Kind of a challenge for myself. Proud of you though! Keep it up!
1:41:13 god damn, for 1 hour and 41 minutes I’ve been wondering if you mistook the actual video game subtitles for the editor 😩 My pre-apologies for doubting you 🙏
@@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh5832my point is he always isn’t sure if he should play a game be cause he doesn’t know if we’d like it. I like watching him enjoy himself regardless of the game.
'The People back at camp are like "Well of course he ran off we called him Wander. We should have just named him stay. If we named him StayPutAndDoNothing he wouldn't have done anything' was way funnier to me than I think Jack was intending. I couldn't stop laughing. 41:10
Imagine being Dormin, finally having a chance to be free once more. A long shot to be sure but you think the little human has at least a snowflakes chance in hell because he brought the proper sword. Then the human absolutely bodies half the colossus without breaking a sweat. Dormin probably starts allowing some hope for the first time in the millenia since imprisonment.... and then his champion flings himself off a cliff and spins head over heels into the abyss completely out of the blue.
Jack freaking out about how in the hell Aggro got in front of him was funny af, but omfgs, watching Aggro get thrown into the air and watching Jack react to it had me WHEEZING!! Robin's editing sounds made it PERFECT
I'm rewatching this for an nth time, and every time Jack says "In the original, you could do this/that/collect this/that" I'm thinking 'Honey, you can do that here too'
i’m pretty sure they used to make official figurines back when the game was newer, but they didn’t sell well so they were discontinued. really wish they would’ve revamped the idea when the remake released 🥲
@@im_azraelle yeah imagine so but that was back when stuff was sold in store. Online collectibles are making a ton now a days and a franchise like this could really use some new releases
@@lichguard not necessarily. Ideally yes because I’m sure that’s what the people want but Kaiju figures like Godzilla and ultraman are in a 6 inch line and scale just fine. I think the problem with doing that with the colossus is their difference in sizes. That might be the big thing holding them back
The story of my introduction to this game is honestly amazing... My roommate at the time came home with it one day. He said he played it for a bit at Best Buy and he described the game as (and I quote) "a game where you ride around on a horse. It seems pretty chill". He literally knew nothing more about it and bought it . That riveting description had us chomping at the bit to play for sure. 😂 So, we humor him and watch him play for the first time and it's pretty much like he described. Then he stumbles onto the first colossus and we all lose our ever loving minds because all the sudden this game made a complete 180. We all took turns finishing it after that and it's still one of my top 5 games.
I played this game for the first time a few weeks back, it’s really good. The colossus can sometimes be really annoying to fight but the world is beautiful, almost like a painting, and it’s fun to figure out the colossi’s gimmicks
I like how he mentioned that "playing Mario kart with the voice of mario" was more ridiculous, yet he recently just played with 3 voice actors in Mario kart.
never understood jack’s hangup over Wanders face until i looked up what he looked like in the original and yeah, he definitely looks a lot more baby faced and a lot less determined in this remake
@@chizknowsdabizyeet7609 maybe not in terms of raytracing but a remake would be cool esp of last guardian where the controls are WAY better to deal with.
UNDER THREE MINUTES ON BIG BIRD? Crazy run. Always one of my favorite youtubers and still at the top, I find myself searching gameplays often and immediately clicking your vid if I’ve seen you’d played it. I also enjoyed the facts about Irelands history and your own knowledge on the game outside of what is shown in the gameplay :) Thanks Sean 💚
@@briangruenewald7536 Channel name is Gab Smolders, and that should be enough to get you started, but I don't know if you'll be able to find the video though, unless it has John Cena in the video title.
Never mind all the violent interludes with giant stone monsters, I could (and did) spend days just cruising around that map on horseback, checking out the scenery. Thanks for rekindling my interest in this game! 2:25:38 Actually, I think at this point, Wander's like, "H-hurkk... BLAAAAARRRGGHH!!!!" 3:02:54 Kinda wish you'd prayed at a temple now, don'cha? 3:35:50 And then Argo hobbles all the way up that stupid ramp and finds out, "Oh, the bridge is gone. Well. Isn't that special."
For me, it was always the fight with the sand worm (Dirge) because unlike any other colossus, it's instantly and constantly on kill mode the whole fight, and never lets up the chase unless stunned. If you fall off Agro while it's still chasing, it's game over for you. The music is also really good at giving the sense of dread it gives off. (Also, although Sean finessed the senses out of it and we never even saw it open its eyes, it has HUGE eyes that really just freak me out.)
@@unnamedvisitor1649 Dirge was my second "Oh, HELL NOOOOOOOOOO!" moment of this game. First was the first Colossus, and me not realizing what I'd gotten myself into playing. I had to sit and take some deep breaths (and then switch games for a while) before I tried any of them. The water snake Colossus was a distant third. Malus was a "Okay, just lost Agro, I'm pissed. Last Colossus must die as retribution- what the f-" *Lazer blasted* freak out. I think that one took me the longest to figure out. 😅
thank you for this video. I found it funny you had issues with Agro, she can jump off small ledges. my brother and i played the ps2 version when we were kids; me playing, him reading the walkthrough. it's a perm memory for me. he died in 2018. I play the remaster alone. this game freaks me out when i try to play it alone now, and your video made me go, "ya know...I can try again."
I'm more than glad to see that you have good memories of him through this game. It truly is special, and it is good to know it is that much more special to you. I say you give it a go, it'll be worth the experience.
I'm glad you created such a special memory with your brother and this game. It's for sure scarier to play this game alone than if you have a navigatior and back up player, but it's so worth it.
I know it's not the same and it never could be, but I hope it helps to know we'll all be on the couch beside you as you play, cheering you on, when and if you decide to play it again ❤
I doubt it will ever happen, but I would sorta love to see Studio Ghibli make a movie of this game. Even a short. I feel like their art style would compliment it so well.
As a swedish 17 year old who actually grew up playing all the older ps1 and 2 games along with the newer games. I absolutely Love the fact that you played this game and with the little swedish joke
I feel like I'm at a christmas eve party sitting on the couch watching an older cousin play this game while all the younger kids watch. Love it, thank you Sean!
Legit just talked about this game because we got a PS5 and I was saying I wanted to play The Last Guardian and SotC finally because they're both my favorite games that I've never been able to play, lol. What a beautiful coincidence and perfect Xmas gift to see this uploaded. Feels comfy to be watching you play again. ❤️ And I know it's a longer game and all but man, I'd really love to see you play The Last Guardian again.
This was my late best friend’s favorite game; this is my 6th Christmas without him. Watching this video reminds me of his passion for this game (he was DEEP in the online conspiracy theories) and his unforgettable personality 🥰 Thank you for uploading this video, it’s a spectacular game with wonderful memories for a lot of people ❤ Happy holidays to all!
I can’t believe how emotional this made me Last time I watched the original series my dog was still around, and he watched it with me. He actually watched the screen which was so cute! This brought back some of those lovely memories of him. He’s been gone almost a year now and it’s nice to have this bring back another little piece of him.
I think you would be really good at the game dev interviews honestly. You said you couldn't serve back and forth with them but I think you're a good enough interviewer and frankly a smart enough guy to be able to hold an interesting conversation and ask the questions you need to despite not having the background you feel like you might need
I can already sense that jacks idea of making a series about how game devs make things work will probably become a reality, its honestly an amazing idea that id love to see
Someone should make a mod for Undertale where all the lines are voiced by Sean from his playthrough (this probably already exists), and Sean can play that version for nostalgia week, so he can play it and doesn't have to worry about doing voices again
@@jeanbriones1190 yeah but it would be a mod so you don't *have* to play the game with him voicing all the characters, you can just, ya kno, not download the mod.
The pain of Jack passing every tree and Shrine and never getting any fruits or lizard tails 😢 and not trying to jump and fly on the doves as they appear in the temple.
Well, let's face it. Jack isn't wrong, his channel got me through a really bad time. And I will never forget that. Not only does Jack help countless people each year with his "Thankmas", he may be helping millions of people who have had difficult struggles in their lives. At least he helped me smile again and enjoy life.. Thank you Jack, merry x-mas and god bless you
I sang in a choir-concert based on games and movies in fantasy settings, (Skyrim, Lotr, etc.) And we had one of the songs from this game. It really made me realise how much I love the music in this game!
It's always "your channel saved me" or "your channel got me through some rough times" This channel gets me through 8 hours that I was supposed to be asleep because I think I look hotter when I'm sleep deprived
This game needs to be put on PC on Steam. I would buy it for $60 in a heartbeat. Still my favorite game to this date. Really a rare moment in gaming that still holds up to this day.
Hey Jack, here's some of the positivity and a nice comment that you deserve for beating Avion without falling off! I've never gotten to play this game before, and this video made me understand why so many people love it! Thanks for doing what you do!
This game is, to this day, among the best video game experiences I've ever had. The music, the puzzle factor, the vast emptiness of the land where Dormin was imprisoned. It's gorgeous. You mentioned the fact that SotC is a huge, open world that has nothing to do aside from hunt the Colossi. I love that part of the game. It really adds to the atmosphere and the emotional impact of the story. As for the Colossi themselves, I always hated Dirge, the burrowing Colossus that chases you through the sand; between that one and Hydrus (the water Colossus), they really spooked me. I suppose it has to do with them potentially appearing from where I can't see them. My favorite is Phalanx, the massive flying Colossus near the end of the game that you have to chase on Agro in order to climb it.
It’s fun watching you play this because Shadow of the Colossus is very nostalgic to me too! This and Earthbound were my childhood! It deserves all the praise you give it. ❤
I remember the hunt for the "last big secret" in the PS2 version. It was crazy seeing the lengths people would go just to see if the game offered any final secrets
58:52 I love the looks of this forest. It feels mysterious and mythical. Would literally just ride around in it for hours because of the look of it. Really wish this game was on the PC
you helped me find this game and it's been my favorite game ever since thank you so much and ur videos completely saved me from depression and has done ever since
I’ve always took the story as mono being their chiefs (head honcho at the end) daughter who was offered as a sacrifice for some reason to prevent dormin coming back. Wander was one of the guard responsible for keeping her safe (why he would be so good at combat and a loyal horse) who fell in love (or was married etc, also why he knows the spell and all that) and decided to try to resurrect her. Forget where or why I thought that but that’s always been my version of the story.
Not to far off. According to the wiki he was a guard of some kind who the princess. She sacrificed herself to prevent a curse and that curse coming from wanderer reviving her
I was rewatching this play through and notice he mentioned when he had someone on live tour play the first boss 11:44 that was person was me!! I am sooo grateful to have met you and to hear about this amazing experience again it’s truly amazing what you do for everyone Sean! Please keep up the good work!
1:43:36 Agro got too far looking for a way to get back, or just tooked too long in general that the game tried tricking you agro found a way to get to you, but instead teleported agro near u out of line of sight. Which im sure Jack knew and just wanted to play along.
Hey Jack! I just wanted to say, you’re pretty damn amazing. You’re just genuinely entertaining 100% of the time. I’ve got three kids, all under three, so my free time is sparse, but listening to you while I’m at work or cleaning the house is just a fantastic thing to be able to do. Keep it up man!
1:19:45 So I don't know if anyone yall noticed but when he said he was he was gonna play Mario cart with Chris Pratt the voice of Mario and 5 months later Chris Pratt is the voice of Mario...Coincidence...???
2:04:00 I've made a theory about this, and I just wanted to share it. So Sean was talking about what could've happened and I think I have a solid answer that I made. I think that the people who lived there / worked there whatever were the guards from The Last Guardian, or at least something related to them, if you look, most of the structures look similar to the ones they built in TLG and I also think they lived alongside colossi, and they were like their guardians or workers or something (i get more into this later), and I also have some ideas of what happened and why they abandoned the area. so you know how Dormin wants you to defeat the colossi, and once you do the tendrils come out which are said to be fragments of Dormin's soul, well I think that Dormin arrived and threatened the land, so the soldiers fought back and won, sealing every part of Dormin's soul in the Colossi before completely evacuating, leaving the evil magic behind, and that explains why Dormin wants you to kill the Colossi, to free his soul so he can find and destroy the soldiers. So yeah, thats my theory on what I think happened and why they left, but remember when I said I'll get into that later, well I'll explain that now. So, I believe the Colossi guarded the soldiers most valuable items, or their most important tombs explaining the fact that majority of the Colossi have some sort of armour over them, and when evacuating they made sure to find a land with more mystical beasts, and thats what they found, they mind controlled the tricos, since maybe they were more difficult, but they managed to get them on their side and they used them, as a coverup for the colossi of some sort, instead using them for their dirty work, etc etc. I get if some of you wouldn't like this theory but I just decided to share, tell me your opinions in replies if you like! (EDIT: Also, y'know the shield easter egg in the forest, well I think that isn't just an easter egg, maybe it was put there for something to hint towards the soldiers actually living there, maybe there was multiple shields but most of them got lost, and they only managed to take a few with them.)
Maybe Dormin created the Tricos as free-thinking beings to do their bidding from a distance while the soldiers, extensions of themself, dealt with interior issues after the people left them. Maybe the people left with the shield after Dormin escaped the Valley and designed the Forbidden Lands as a trap and a prison for Dormin’s soon-to-be fragments, sealing their voice in the temple and animating the land and architecture as free-thinking, indomitable beings to guard his power, shoddy craftsmanship but still, before forbidding the lands. Maybe those people _already lived_ in the Forbidden Lands a few centuries before it became so forbidden and did the same thing knowing he would escape eventually _and then_ forbid the lands.
Holy shit, turning and waiting for Agro, then turning to see her pop in front of you like a daisy is the funniest thing I've seen all week. Oh lordie...

Definitely. Works the same way in the 2005 original.
I'm sure it was intentional. It wouldn't make sense for Wander to just talk to Agro when Agro is half the map away, running to catch up to Wander, and I believe Team Ico knew that.

@@klaudiso only in the PlayStation version as far an I know however after collecting the coins you can go to the secret passage and get the sword of dormin it’s better than even the Queens sword which is unlocked by beating all time trials in hard
I also picked up this game on a whim. Walked into my local game store, and out of rows upon rows of mediocre used ps2 games, I just so happened to pick this one up and decide to get it. $5 for one of the coolest games I've ever played.
I got it as a birthday present the year after it came out because I played a demo in the store and fell in love with it. Little 8 year old me 100% that game on the ps2.

Honestly this couldn't have gone up on a more perfect day. This is my first christmas away from home, and this is just the right amount of nostalgia. Really perked up my mood. Thanks man, thanks a bunch.
Hugs. Hopefully being away brings more good than bad!
Same, man. Same.
Was my first Christmas out on my own as well, was super lonely so having a game I remember playing with my brother as a child and being entranced by back when it came out helped
Sean's quick comment about how much emotion used to be ingrained in Wander's face, how it looked like he was troubled even beyond this scenario, has really made me rethink the character and add so many layers to him. The idea that he's not just """a stupid kid who made a bad choice for young love""" and had more layers of other awful stuff going on that we'll never really know about, that he made this choice not just because he loves Mono in... some way (romantic? familial? friends?) but because he was acting out on deeper, unknowable motivations that tied into it all
(A year later....sorry...but I LOVED your comment and the take on Wander as I'm watching this video for the first time.)
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Avion, Phalanx, Hydrus, Dirge, Quadratus, and Gaius are the coolest colossi. Griffin, Phoenix, Spider, Worm are ones I really wished made it into the game. 20 colossi definitely sounds better than 16, right guys?
Yeah
I mean definitely would have been nice to have had all of the 24 original colossi. Devil, Griffin, Phoenix, Roc, Saru, Sirius, Spider and Worm. You can actually find the location of 6 of the 8 unused and modeled colossi. Saru and Griffin were never placed on the finished map. Saru was an albino monkey that you had to fight in a cave and he would be hanging from the ceiling. Griffin's test area seems to indicate you would have had to use fire to scare the colossus into exposing its weakpoints. Griffin's fight would have probably been too much like the Celosia fight which is why it was cut. Spider was actually in an early demo version and was cut because it required wander to make horizontal slashes while on horseback which was scrapped during development because it was too janky.
Generally most of the unused colossi were scrapped because they were having difficulty implementing and balancing the combat strategy. Some of the cut colossi were also cut for redundancy and for time. Fumito Ueda said that he had originally planned for 48 colossi but cut it down to around 24 to model and then the final 16 based off strategy. The final colossi went through a lot of development, originally being like a bull colossi and then later being redesigned into the towering immobile colossi malus.
@@HailKosm there were originally 48 colossi
@@HailKosm you should look into the fan project "beyond the far lands" they're taking all of the data mined colossi and putting them into the game, would recommend
@@EliteY33t2 that's very cool, some of the unused colossi had really cool strategies for defeating them, it was unfortunate that the PS2 tech at the time didn't really allow it. So I'll definitely check that out. I also looked into their next game seems very strange the only pictures are like a little light girl and like a weird scaly fist. Very intriguing
I hope they remake Ico one day. It could really use it, and it would put it on par with SotC and The Last Guardian! Then we'd have the whole Team Ico trilogy in HD and accessible on modern platforms.
bro spittin facts
Unfortunately I don’t even think they would do that due to it’s popularity compared to shadow of the colossus
Isn’t there a remake??
@@Varrbariouss No. It was re-released on PS3 along with SotC, but I think it was even more of a port than even a remaster. It's never gotten a remake though.
What is an ico
This weekend I watched "Gab Smolders" doing a chill Christmas game and she laughed out loud that she heard Sean yell "and his name is John Cena!" Then I found it just over an hour into this video! I knew I'd run into it eventually! Thank you for Nostalgia week! And Chainsaw Man rules!

Jack: "As you see, to turn - as a colossus - it takes an E-TURNITYYY!"
'The People back at camp are like "Well of course he ran off we called him Wander. We should have just named him stay. If we named him StayPutAndDoNothing he wouldn't have done anything' was way funnier to me than I think Jack was intending. I couldn't stop laughing. 41:10
Imagine being Dormin, finally having a chance to be free once more. A long shot to be sure but you think the little human has at least a snowflakes chance in hell because he brought the proper sword. Then the human absolutely bodies half the colossus without breaking a sweat. Dormin probably starts allowing some hope for the first time in the millenia since imprisonment.... and then his champion flings himself off a cliff and spins head over heels into the abyss completely out of the blue.
Omg, imagine. Just suddenly he's dead, so fast
"....shit."
- Dormin, probably.
Jack freaking out about how in the hell Aggro got in front of him was funny af, but omfgs, watching Aggro get thrown into the air and watching Jack react to it had me WHEEZING!! Robin's editing sounds made it PERFECT
I got jumpsacred by aggro
I'm rewatching this for an nth time, and every time Jack says "In the original, you could do this/that/collect this/that" I'm thinking 'Honey, you can do that here too'
Yeah lmao. 'they had lizards in the original' 🤓 like bruh it's still the same game
I really wish there were more figurines of from this franchise
Any figurines would be at least 3 feet tall for proper scaling
i’m pretty sure they used to make official figurines back when the game was newer, but they didn’t sell well so they were discontinued. really wish they would’ve revamped the idea when the remake released 🥲
@@im_azraelle yeah imagine so but that was back when stuff was sold in store. Online collectibles are making a ton now a days and a franchise like this could really use some new releases
@@lichguard not necessarily. Ideally yes because I’m sure that’s what the people want but Kaiju figures like Godzilla and ultraman are in a 6 inch line and scale just fine. I think the problem with doing that with the colossus is their difference in sizes. That might be the big thing holding them back
I am can good engles yes 🐴🤣🤣🤣🤣
The story of my introduction to this game is honestly amazing... My roommate at the time came home with it one day. He said he played it for a bit at Best Buy and he described the game as (and I quote) "a game where you ride around on a horse. It seems pretty chill". He literally knew nothing more about it and bought it . That riveting description had us chomping at the bit to play for sure. 😂 So, we humor him and watch him play for the first time and it's pretty much like he described. Then he stumbles onto the first colossus and we all lose our ever loving minds because all the sudden this game made a complete 180. We all took turns finishing it after that and it's still one of my top 5 games.
That sounds awesome NGL it was mind-blowing to see the first Colossus like this
I played this game for the first time a few weeks back, it’s really good. The colossus can sometimes be really annoying to fight but the world is beautiful, almost like a painting, and it’s fun to figure out the colossi’s gimmicks
Same here. Only bad thing are the controls imo
@@collinlasky9062 can’t you change the controls in the game menu or at least the buttons bindings on your controller in the console settings

BLAAAAARRRGGHH!!!!" 3:02:54 Kinda wish you'd prayed at a temple now, don'cha? 3:35:50 And then Argo hobbles all the way up that stupid ramp and finds out, "Oh, the bridge is gone. Well. Isn't that special."
The water eel terrified me my first time playing I legit had to put it down and come back lol
Thalassophobia is fucked up
I hate it sooooo much
For me, it was always the fight with the sand worm (Dirge) because unlike any other colossus, it's instantly and constantly on kill mode the whole fight, and never lets up the chase unless stunned. If you fall off Agro while it's still chasing, it's game over for you. The music is also really good at giving the sense of dread it gives off. (Also, although Sean finessed the senses out of it and we never even saw it open its eyes, it has HUGE eyes that really just freak me out.)
@@unnamedvisitor1649 Dirge was my second "Oh, HELL NOOOOOOOOOO!" moment of this game. First was the first Colossus, and me not realizing what I'd gotten myself into playing. I had to sit and take some deep breaths (and then switch games for a while) before I tried any of them. The water snake Colossus was a distant third. Malus was a "Okay, just lost Agro, I'm pissed. Last Colossus must die as retribution- what the f-" *Lazer blasted* freak out. I think that one took me the longest to figure out. 😅

this game freaks me out when i try to play it alone now, and your video made me go, "ya know...I can try again."
I'm more than glad to see that you have good memories of him through this game. It truly is special, and it is good to know it is that much more special to you. I say you give it a go, it'll be worth the experience.
I'm glad you created such a special memory with your brother and this game. It's for sure scarier to play this game alone than if you have a navigatior and back up player, but it's so worth it.

This game needs to be put on PC on Steam. I would buy it for $60 in a heartbeat. Still my favorite game to this date. Really a rare moment in gaming that still holds up to this day.
It would be especially fun on PC because there would be so many mods for more collosi and weapons
Hey Jack, here's some of the positivity and a nice comment that you deserve for beating Avion without falling off! I've never gotten to play this game before, and this video made me understand why so many people love it! Thanks for doing what you do!
This game is, to this day, among the best video game experiences I've ever had. The music, the puzzle factor, the vast emptiness of the land where Dormin was imprisoned. It's gorgeous.
You mentioned the fact that SotC is a huge, open world that has nothing to do aside from hunt the Colossi. I love that part of the game. It really adds to the atmosphere and the emotional impact of the story.
As for the Colossi themselves, I always hated Dirge, the burrowing Colossus that chases you through the sand; between that one and Hydrus (the water Colossus), they really spooked me. I suppose it has to do with them potentially appearing from where I can't see them. My favorite is Phalanx, the massive flying Colossus near the end of the game that you have to chase on Agro in order to climb it.
It’s fun watching you play this because Shadow of the Colossus is very nostalgic to me too! This and Earthbound were my childhood! It deserves all the praise you give it. ❤
I remember the hunt for the "last big secret" in the PS2 version. It was crazy seeing the lengths people would go just to see if the game offered any final secrets
And they were rewarded

he used to he in a heavy metal band ! as a drummer though lol
2:04:00
I've made a theory about this, and I just wanted to share it.
So Sean was talking about what could've happened and I think I have a solid answer that I made. I think that the people who lived there / worked there whatever were the guards from The Last Guardian, or at least something related to them, if you look, most of the structures look similar to the ones they built in TLG and I also think they lived alongside colossi, and they were like their guardians or workers or something (i get more into this later), and I also have some ideas of what happened and why they abandoned the area. so you know how Dormin wants you to defeat the colossi, and once you do the tendrils come out which are said to be fragments of Dormin's soul, well I think that Dormin arrived and threatened the land, so the soldiers fought back and won, sealing every part of Dormin's soul in the Colossi before completely evacuating, leaving the evil magic behind, and that explains why Dormin wants you to kill the Colossi, to free his soul so he can find and destroy the soldiers. So yeah, thats my theory on what I think happened and why they left, but remember when I said I'll get into that later, well I'll explain that now. So, I believe the Colossi guarded the soldiers most valuable items, or their most important tombs explaining the fact that majority of the Colossi have some sort of armour over them, and when evacuating they made sure to find a land with more mystical beasts, and thats what they found, they mind controlled the tricos, since maybe they were more difficult, but they managed to get them on their side and they used them, as a coverup for the colossi of some sort, instead using them for their dirty work, etc etc. I get if some of you wouldn't like this theory but I just decided to share, tell me your opinions in replies if you like!
(EDIT: Also, y'know the shield easter egg in the forest, well I think that isn't just an easter egg, maybe it was put there for something to hint towards the soldiers actually living there, maybe there was multiple shields but most of them got lost, and they only managed to take a few with them.)
"Tell me your opinion" 🤓 no one comments
Maybe Dormin created the Tricos as free-thinking beings to do their bidding from a distance while the soldiers, extensions of themself, dealt with interior issues after the people left them.
Maybe the people left with the shield after Dormin escaped the Valley and designed the Forbidden Lands as a trap and a prison for Dormin’s soon-to-be fragments, sealing their voice in the temple and animating the land and architecture as free-thinking, indomitable beings to guard his power, shoddy craftsmanship but still, before forbidding the lands.
Maybe those people _already lived_ in the Forbidden Lands a few centuries before it became so forbidden and did the same thing knowing he would escape eventually _and then_ forbid the lands.
Holy shit, turning and waiting for Agro, then turning to see her pop in front of you like a daisy is the funniest thing I've seen all week. Oh lordie...
