This did miff me a bit, since it means that sometimes when I go to pet Agro (because she's such a good, pretty horsey), I accidentally hit her with my sword instead. This required that the "action" button be overloaded to the same button as attacking, since actions are rarely used and are mostly contextual. They key addition is a dedicated roll button, so that you no longer have to duck-and-jump in order to dodge attacks. A few buttons have been remapped, but the overall feel of the game remains intact.Ĭontrols have been remapped, but the game feel is still almost identical. Those sorts of drastic changes thankfully didn't happen, and the new control scheme works just fine. Or maybe they would map attacking to the shoulder or trigger buttons (like Dark Souls). Like, maybe they would map galloping Agro and slowing her down to the trigger buttons or some nonsense like that which makes her feel like a car in a driving game. I feared that changes to the controls might negatively impact this game feel in order to cater to modern player preferences. This was a potential cause for consternation from me, as I really liked the feel of the original game, particularly the horseback-riding controls.

New controls, same basic feelīluepoint did attempt to update and modernize the controls. So if you were hoping for some of the colossi or map regions that were cut from the original game to be implemented, sorry, that isn't happening (unless such a thing comes out as DLC.). This version of Shadow of the Colossus will not feature any new content (with one minor exception), nor will it redesign any parts of the game the way that Capcom redesigned Resident Evil. It's not quite a remake on the scale of Capcom's Resident Evil remake for the Gamecube.

This is a genuine remake, with new assets, altered controls, and rebuilt code. This isn't just a matter of taking the original content, upscaling it, and presenting it in an HD aspect ratio (which they already did).

SHADOW OF THE COLOSSUS PC RELEASE DATE PS4

This PS4 release isn't a simple remaster. Why couldn't Konami have given Silent Hill to these folks?! That HD remaster was very well-received by the general public, as have been all of Bluepoint's remasters, as far as I am aware.

I never played it because I thought the PS2 version of the game still looked fantastic and didn't need to be remastered to be enjoyed.

SHADOW OF THE COLOSSUS PC RELEASE DATE PS3

Bluepoint had already released an HD remaster of Shadow of the Colossus on the PS3 back in 2011.

Fortunately, however, the remake privilege (or burden, depending on how you want to look at it) was given to Bluepoint Games, the veritable masters of remasters and HD collections. And on and on.īecause of how absolutely brilliant the original game is, I had reservations about any attempt to remaster or remake it, especially after the debacle that was Hijinx Studios' Silent Hill HD Collection. To the decision to not drag down the game's pace or pollute the overworld with a single encounter with grunt enemies. To the way that Agro's independent actions, slightly imprecise controls, and occasional insubordination sell the idea that she's an autonomous living character, rather than a simple vehicle that you pilot as an extension of the player avatar. To the bittersweet death animations of the Colossi, accompanied by Kow Otani's outstanding score, that makes you question the rightness of your actions. To the intimidating, yet majestic aesthetic design of the colossi themselves. To the immense sens of scale and grandeur that embodies almost every crevice of the game and the sheer smallness of the protagonist himself. From the desolate and bleak, yet hauntingly-beautiful landscape. Virtually every creative decision that the original team made was the absolute perfectly right decision to make. It ranks right up there with games like Portal, Half-Life, Super Mario Bros., and Tetris as a contender for the title of "best video game ever made". The original game (released in 2005 by Fumito Ueda's Team Ico at Sony) is a classic and a masterpiece of interactive art. Honestly though, what could I possibly say about Shadow of the Colossus that hasn't already said? I might as well try to write a retro review of Citizen Kane or Hamlet! I debated whether to turn this into a retro review of Shadow of the Colossus, or to focus this review on whether or not this particular remake manages to re-capture the magic of the original. PlayStation 4 (via retail disc or PSN digital download) The remake faithfully captures the magic of the original
