I replayed this game recently on PS4 and the remaster's quality went beyond my expectations. Thumbs up to Bluepoint Games, they did a hell of a job. It was just as exhilarating of an experience as back in 2005. Surprisingly, I haven't played The Last Guardian yet but I'm looking forward to it. I know it's far from the same game as SotC, but I know I'll enjoy any game Team Ico creates.

One word of warning about The Last Guardian: Bring a box of tissues.

One of my all-time favourite games.

Another masterpiece in the prolific work of Koh Otani.

One of my favorite soundtracks from all time. I only played the game once, on a friend's house, since I never owned any PS. It was not an ideal playthrough since I think it's better to experience this game alone. However it was still an unique experience an the OST really marked me. I listened to it for years and used it in my RPG campaigns. The people who says games can't be art have a real trouble to deal with this game.

I must admit that I have a problem with video games that is to underestimate any other but this one listens a lot and it was wonderful that if, after finishing it, I ended everything sad and you know why

I need to replay this!

You could throw a thousand darts at SotC's soundtrack and you'd never hit a bad track. The whole thing is stunning, much like the game itself.

I finished this yesterday. Great game, gameplay is clunky as hell, but the experience is really fun and the length really helps make the mediocre controls more digestible.

The controls never bothered me too much but they are definitely not perfect. Agro's controls are flawed, no question.

you probly just lack skill

@SupraDarky Agro speeding up and slowing down at arbitrary moments was a pain. I also just had some wonky collision detection while fighting some colossi on more than one occasion. I still think it's definitely something that everyone should experience, despite all the issues I had

@OfficialAbass If that makes you feel better, sure. The game undeniably has control issues, if you want to dismiss that then that's on you.

I don't care what you say, this is hands down one of the best games in the world. Amazing story, amazing gameplay, amazing music, amazing world, amazing fights. Perfect game 10/10, I actually plan on reviewing this at some point
