I started The Last Guardian last night and I’m blown away by it. Dragon’s Dogma has some cool elements of it, like grabbing onto a chimera or griffin, and of course God of War and Lords of Shadow have those QTEs, but I really want more games to have the feeling SotC had of actually being able to climb and maneuver on top of a moving, breathing creature.

I was surprised you didn’t mention that Ko Otani also composed “Gundam Wing”! You guys nailed it with how no other game has matched SotC’s “small guy fighting something huge”. Definitely one of those “Must-have” VGM CDs. Shadow of the Colossus is still one of my favorite games ever, and the soundtrack is simply unparalleled. Love when the percussion kicks in after that falsetto. I also love the vocal track, I shoulda figured it was a young choir boy singing it! They used that song in the initial trailers of the game and it’s stuck with me ever since. Kinda like the Save Room music in RE games, it’s just this wonderful bit of respite, and it made me feel cozy amidst the dreariness of being alone in an abandoned, creepy fortress. I have a big attachment to ICO’s “Healing” music as well.

Playing it again in the HD Remaster, I still love the game but Yorda’s AI is just some of the worst ever, haha! Also, some of the puzzles were shifted around in comparison to the US PS2 version.

Interestingly, the version of ICO found in the HD Remaster on PS3 is based on the European version, which means you can unlock a secret watermelon ending as well as a lightsaber/laser sword thing. I didn’t actually get the game until Christmas 2003 (alongside Shinobi) but I had so many fond memories of it, even if Yorda’s AI could be a pain 😛 HNNNGH YES I was hoping you’d do this episode! I remember playing the ICO demo OVER and OVER in an Official PlayStation Magazine demo disc in August 2001.
