Description "Most look up and admire the stars. A champion climbs a mountain and grabs one."


Well, I have been playing Shadow of the Colossus lately, so it had a huge influence on this work. Plus, I had to create a Sureal picture for a competition on another website.

Stock: =lockstock

The rest is either drawn by me (the entire forground) or stock from sxc.hu (the background)

Yes, Dali had a big inspiration here, but I wanted to go the extra dark path and play with it more. His work is brighter. Thank you

Words can not describe what an anazing definition of the word abstact that you have made this piece define. Truly a work of inspiration and imagination. Far from anything I could ever produce.

I love the style of the 'monster' and the overall scale of it, compared to the tiny warrior at the bottom of the screen.

th3hunger [2007-05-09 01:55:27 +0000 UTC]

How is that game anyway? I thought about getting it, but not sure if I'll like it. Is it RPG, action, or what?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

sergiofx In reply to th3hunger [2007-05-10 12:02:00 +0000 UTC]

Its not like anything you played before, mark my words. Its a puzzle action game. If you want a bit details, the game has only 16 bosses, not minions, no pathes nothing. You only have to find the monster, come up with the correct way to get on him and then, find his weak point to kill him. It sounds a lot more simple than it is, but trust me, its just amazing. You only have a horse, a sword and an arrow/bow. Nothing more.

Getting on the most becomes of a puzzle itself, because as the game progresses, it becomes harder and harder. They are either flying, either under water... Anything you can imagine, and they are so damn big, (the largest bosses ever in a video game), you can walk on him like walking on ground.

If you are a fan of games, you should get this game without a doubt.

Yeah, I hear ya. I was seriously disipointed. You beat the game then get 50 tokens to wear the black suit again and then 100 for NOTHING! Man I wanted my money back.

The Xbox360 Version on the other hand...

It's like a totally different game!
