    Ok, I played some of it at a friend. This game is amazing, it has the same tranquil mood like ICO, beautifull lightning, AWESOME landscapes and architecture, just like ICO it looks like a moving painting. I only saw one collosus, and it's kind of cruel to kill it because it obviously has no beef with the hero. All I can say is, I wish it was monday for a change because I so want this game. This is ICO meets Ocarina of Time

    Do you feel a bit regretful after you kill the Colossus? It seems a shame to knock them off... except the cat beast...
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    The only one I really hated was the lizard-type one who climbed the walls of the 'arena' where you fought him. He was beyond irritating.

    Ya, most aren't that aggresive, and the way they die is just nasty. Still, someone has to do it

    Yes, indeed; there is something both glorious and utterly sad in those triumphs over them. The music, the adrenaline of the fight…and then its death, seeing the giant break down… It is sad, but also filled with the grim determination of the main hero, who will persevere to bring back to life his beloved one, who might know he is not doing the exactly right thing, but who will do anything for his love. Something like shooting your horse with a broken leg.

    Epic, all I can say.
