Fighting agaisnt the Colossus is an interesting experience. After a couple of trial and error, I figured out how to do it. It took several tries, but after successfully killing the colossus I felt exicited and ready to fight more Colossi. After defeating the first Colossus and adapting to the controls of the game I began to explore. I went all over trying to find new areas of the playing field. After some time of exploration, I realized that this game was boring, you did not have any other mission but to fight against the Colossi, there werent any other enemies along the way. I found some lizards and killed a couple of them, but other than that there was nothing much to do, it was lacking minor mission and made the game less exciting. The 3D graphics and the character controls were pretty good for the most part. The story wasnt too exciting, since its been used several times before in other games. After my second session with this game I realized it wasnt that great compared to any of the other games that I have played for this class. It was a dissapointment, but that just because I really wasnt playing the game the way it was meant to be played.

This is the first time I ever play this game. Im not big into the "fantasy adventure" genre, so I wasnt too excited to play this game. The background info for this game is like everyother game, the main character is going to enter an "epic" adventure to rescue his "princess." For this game in particular, the main character was going to battle monsters to revive his dead girlfriend. Although, I'm not a big fan of this genre, I have to say this game was not bad. But, it is quite annyoing at times, having to travel all over to find the next monster to battle. The one thing that I did enjoy was battling the monster, It was quite challenging, having to be like a "real warrior" and killing a giant. As the player, you have to climb and stab and shot arrows and just seriously battle. The feature I most enjoyed from this game is being able to count on a reliable partner. Agro is the best thing in this game, its made for lazy people like me who do not want to travel, walking long distances. If for some reason I get lost in some area of the game, I can always count on Agro, the X button is my favorite, all I have to do is press it and Agro is on his way. That is amazing, I really havent encountred that option in any other games. For the most part this game was good, Im still not a real fan of the genre, but Im more open to it because of this game.
