Shadow of the colossus or God of war?

Vgfian · 04-02-2009, 07:18 PM

I have enough to get one or the other,but not both .
The pricing is
Shadow of the Colossus $18.82
God of War $17.82

I keep leaning back and forth between the two, so I decided to check and see if vgf can influence my decision at all.

Shadow of the Colossus is harder to find and God of War can be beat in one sitting.

***CaptHayfever*** · 04-03-2009, 12:19 AM

Shadow, totally.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Shadow, of course.

heh · 04-03-2009, 05:22 PM

never played god of war unfortunately, but shadow is an awesome game and you should get it eventually

**Galefore** · 04-04-2009, 06:57 PM

Shadow of the Colossus. By a mile.

I figured somebody would try to bring Codiekitty's arguments into this.

Bottom line is, SOTC is a better game. TD said it best when he added the collector's value into it. Also, I think you'll personally enjoy it since I know you.

Metal Man · 04-04-2009, 08:16 PM

Yeah. I brought it in partially because I figured she'd want the negative view alongside all the positive ones. Since I haven't played either, I just let Codiekitty speak for me.

...

It's sort of a shame she isn't around anymore. And no one fills her niche. At least. I don't like lemmings enough to do so.

***Ace Mercury*** · 04-04-2009, 09:46 PM

Colossus is a more subtle game, if only because God of War is a raging id storm of brutality. Colossus:God of War :: sushi:fast food.

It's up to personal taste, but I prefer Colossus.

Vgfian · 04-07-2009, 08:55 PM

I've selected Shadow of the Colossus, it should arrive between today and the 16.
(I won't really know, as I'm out of town at the moment.)

God of War you stupid bast-

Oh, yes, Codie's list. Yeah, I don't think she even played Katamari. She obviously didn't get the gist of Wario Ware...

The Genesis was overrated. Only makes sense that a lot of its library should be as well.

Metal Man · 04-08-2009, 10:21 PM

Or at least, every console has at least one overrated game, unless the entire console died before its games could be rated.

***Ace Mercury*** · 04-09-2009, 07:45 AM

Also, what games are exactly rated? Perhaps we can apply those rating practises to future games and create a more accurate database of ratings.
