Today, i will be sharing some tips on how to defeat the first eight Colossi from the game "Shadow of the Colossus"


Colossus 1 - Go behind the colossus' right leg and stab it so it falls to it's knees. Climb to the top of its weak point.

Colossus 2- When the Colossus rears up, shoot the soles of its feet. It will crash down allowing you to climb up to it's head and to its butt, where its weak points are located.

Colossus 3 - This Colossus holds a giant stone club. Find the Stone platform and stand on it, and roll out of the way when the colossus tries to hit you. The impact will break its left arm armor. Let it try to hit you again. When the Club is stuck, climb up to it and shimmy up the armor break on its arm to reach its weak points on the top of it's head and its belly.

Colossus 4- Find the tunnels and go inside it. The colossus will bend over the entrance and try to sniff you out. Go out the back entrance of the tombs and climb over its tail while it's still looking for you in the other entrance. Its weak point is at the top of its head.

Colossus 5- Swim to the stone tower nearest the colossus and shoot arrows at it until it flies off. Find the three floating stone platforms near any tower and stand on one. Shoot more arrows at the colossus until it dives at you. before it hits you, jump up to its wing. Remember to move across the Colossus' back only when it's flying calmly. Make your way to the tip of its wings and tail for its three weak points.

Colossus 6 - Run! Run all the away to the opposite end of the room and hide inside the alcove where it can't see you. Once it ducks down to take a peek, run and climb up to its beard. Its weak points are the top of its head and its lower back.

Colossus 7- Swim around until you see the Colossus head straight for you. Position yourself so that it passes right under you, then grab onto its tail when it breaks the surface. MAke your way from the tail to its head, making sure to grab on when you go underwater. Stay clear at the spikes as they balst electricity when they hit water. Stab the weak points near the spikes, then go for killing the blow on the Colossus' head.

Colossus 8- Go down to the second floor and shoot some arrows at it to attract the colossus' attention. Once it starts climbing the walls to look for you, avoid its attacks and shoot two of its glowing feet. It will falls down on its back. Jump down to the arena , get on its underside and stb the two weak points you'll find on its chest and its belly

SUIKODEN V

Suikoden games having coming out left and right, but a lot of fans of the series have been miffed that their cool factor’s been dropping lately.

Apart from some cut scenes, you could mistake this for a PS1 title. The Camera is fixed at a third-person angle that looks down on the characters. This would fine, except there’s no way to rotate it, creating a lot of “blind spots”. Some rune effects and co-op attacks look great, but you know they could’ve done a lot better.

The story line has more twists and turns than a rollercoaster! The battle system is the same as in the first two games in the series, but with the new twist: formations. The key to winning fight is to find the right set of people to fight together , using form skills well, and changing formations depending on the situation. the real time duel and war battles add some spice to the mix. Each of the 108 stars of destiny has also been fleshed out as well, making each one interesting.

The character voices in this game are tops! The music, a tribute to Suikoden 1’s theme, is kay at first but hearing the same loop being repeated over and over again could get pretty tiresome.

Recruiting all 108 characters could be pretty tough the first play through, so the game has a new game+ function that allows you to keep items, money and skills from your final save. Playing the game again can be pretty boring, though, since there’s no way to skip cutscenes.

One of the deepest and immersive RPGs we’ve seen in a long time. If it weren’t for the humdrum graphics and the slow loading timeduring battles, this game would have gotten a perfect dcore. Even with its drawbacks, though, this game should be played be anyone and evryone who loves a good RPG.

The PS2 and the XboxVersion of Spiderman 2 was a blast. It finally gave tired superhero games a fresh shotin the arm with its free roaming gameplay. Unfortunately the PSP version of Spiderman 2 doesnt let you to explore Manhattan as freely. Instead, the game is more likely the first Spiderman game on the PS2 where you are given specific missons that you have to complete. Going anywhere elese means an instant failure.
Most of the enemies are set indoors with the focus on fighting several enemies at once. Controlling Spidey feels a bit iffy since you use d-pad to move and adjust the camera at the same time. Spidey still has his arsenal moves like web swinging, charged jumps, dives and web zips, and you can earn points to upgrade some of your moves.
For his part, Spiderman moves as well as his console counterpar. Its just weird as he moves accross buildings, his webbing seems to cling on to thin air. My main complaint thought, is how easy and short everything is. It will take you less than three hours to finish the entire game.

"APE ESCAPE 3" ~ PLAY STATION 2


There's nothing like Ape Escape. A mad monkey named Specter has unleashed an army of monkeys to take over a TV station. His diabolical plan? Broadcast dull and insane TV shows that will have everyone glued to their TV sets, leaving Specter free to take over the world. That's where you came in. You play either as Kei or Yumi, both monkey catchers who are armed with a net and other zany gadgets that will help them catch Specter's Monkeys


For Graphics, i must say that all the monkeys looks cute and funny, and each of them have very unique personalities. The levels also sport some kind of movie theme that make them all more interesting. When all is said and done, though, there's nothing special about the graphics. The many camera issues don't help either.

The game is absolutely fun to play. Catch 400 different monkeys in over20 different levels. There are some pretty cool boss fights as well. What's new to the series is the ability to morph into different characters with different abilities. You can transform into a knight armed with a magic shield, a ninja who can run faster and catch monkeys more quickly, and many others.

Some monkey squeaks and cutesy sound effects; the voice acting can get a bit lame, but these guys are trying to make like catching monkeys is a serious plot!

There's an incredible amount of items, mini games, and more collectibles to unlock. Wile some of these may not be very interesting, the mini games are definitely worth a look~ epecially the Ape Escape version of Metal Gear Solid.

Overall, the game is as silly as ever, but that's what we love about it. This is easily the best Ape Escape yet. If you love the series, then pick this one up. If you have never played Ape Escape yet, then now's the time to start.
