Featured reviews
I enjoy what story is in this game. It has a lot of heart and emotions involved which make up a good experience. The only problem (and it's a major problem) is that it's too hard to control Trico! You will tell him to jump one way and he will jump a completely different way. It makes playing the game so irritating/frustrating and a lot of times I will get exhausted and stop playing because it would take too long for Trico to do what you want.
I want to continue on playing the game because I want to know what happens to the characters but it is extremely difficult to want to stick around and play it when it takes me an hour to get out of a room when it should only take 10 minutes.
I am a huge fan of the The Shadow Of The Colossus and consider it as one of the best games ever so my hopes were really high for this game considering it was released by the same developer but what I played was a technically bankrupt game with the worst AI I have ever seen, the game is so dated that it actually put a lot of PS2 games to shame, the only positive thing is the lore but that is not enough to make a good video game, this game should have been a movie when I can sit back and enjoy the rather interesting story not a video game with most lacking and frustrating GAMEPLAY I have ever witnessed.5/10.
The level designs, lighting, puzzles and plot are a masterpiece in their own right, but in doing so the game clearly pushes the boundaries of the technology required a little to far.
This title not only gives you an AI companion that walks alongside you on your journey, but actually relies upon it to complete most of the puzzles. Any video game with an AI companion suffers from the issue of the Artificial intelligence falling far behind the flexible and rational intelligence that is expected, however, whilst it can be slightly frustrating the companion in this game is years ahead of other titles, it looks and acts in a rational manner and its animations are flexible enough to adapt to nearly all scenarios. Any issues can be overlooked but if the companion were another humanoid rather than an animal it would be more obvious. In this respect, when the boy your are playing as becomes unresponsive or performs an unintended action, it is far more frustrating. Similarly, although the camera follows your avatar without player control you are left to suffer some horrible and confusing angles at times.
If your are a fan of Fumito Ueda or linear-puzzle games then this is a must play game, if however, you are looking for fast paced action games then this is not the game for you.

Great game. Beginning of the game i dont have good opinion on this , after playing it,it is one of the greatest game. Animal and kid in the game move as realistic as. Climax you feel the relation between them.
Some of the controls where not that good, but the story was so good. This is one of few games I've ever cried to.
