The Best Game of February 2018: Shadow of the Colossus
Read the Review!
Senior Editor Hayes Madsen: Shadow of the Colossus is considered by many to be one of the greatest games ever made, and remaking something like that can be a daunting task. However, Bluepoint games took on the task, and managed to create one of the best remakes we’ve ever seen.
Shadow of the Colossus on PS4 is definitely the same core game, and there isn’t really any new content added. However, the game has received a complete graphical overhaul as well as minor improvements to controls, overall feel, and more. What the remake really does so well is simply highlight was a genuinely unique experience Shadow of the Colossus was in the first place. Even to this day there’s nothing else like it, and the graphical overhaul helps make it one of the most stunning games available on the PS4.
All of the content from the original game like unlockable items and modes are all still there, but new features like Hard Mode unlocked from the start, or a new Photo Mode, make this an even more worthwhile experience. Make no mistake, Shadow of the Colossus is a classic game, and this remake is absolutely the best way to experience it.
