Now I’m not sure if this is common knowledge, but I feel the need to explain regardless. There has always been a division between the fans on SONY, Microsoft and Nintendo. Visit any videogame internet forum and there will always be discussion about who is better. Which leads me to my next console.
In May 2013 I decided to see what SONY has to offer and I bought a second hand PS3. I wanted to experience some of the PS3 exclusive games prior to the start of the next generation. After playing through the Uncharted trilogy, Heavy Rain, Grand Theft Auto V and Shadow of the Colossus I can honestly say the purchase is well worth it. I found great enjoyment in exploring games I previously had missed or overlooked, due to the fact I never had a SONY system.
Shadow of the Colossus
Uncharted 2
None more so than Shadow of the Colossus. The game in itself is built on a simple premise but the ambience is truly enthralling. As you ride your trusty steed towards each of the tranquil hulking colossi, you can’t help but be struck by a sense of awe. Unaware of the threat your minuscule frame beholds, the lumbering creature remains peaceful until you strike your first blow. As the creature falls you almost regret your decision, hoping there would be some other way to complete the game rather than fell such a graceful creature. Such is the nature of an emotive videogame.
Next is the conclusion to the series as I reminisce on all the great games and how they have shaped My Life as a Gamer.
