Shadow of the Colossus Remake vs Original All Collosus Cutscenes Comparison

[@BigAlvideos101]

I love how in the PS4 version, the fire/light thing on Malus's arm goes out as he dies, whereas in the PS3 version it stays lit! What a neat little detail!

[@hugosan3000]

It eventually goes out, we just don’t see it in the video

Also happens with the smaller crystal things on Hydrus’ side. When he sinks to the bottom they all slowly go out

There is less detail in the darker climate. Has taken away a lot of the beauty in their armour. Unless they're in broad daylight the clarity is not exactly better than the original.

I love the colossus sounds more in the PS2 version. They sounded like real animals. In the PS4 version, they have this weird growl. It's still an amazing remake.

[@benoitb4652]

When I heard Phaedra and Avion I realised they would all sound the same.. :( Phaedra's screams were so hurting in the original... I prefered the original version of "Sunlit Earth" too, where there was drums and a louder flute

[@Thomas11611]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. It was almost like they all sounded the same tbh... The sound effects give them their originality. I can't complain though.. someone will fuck with something to make it lack the originality. Still an amazing job with this remake though!!

[@hansalanson3497]

Phalanx (the 13th) vocal on the new version is the most noticeable change for me. The original is just heart-wrenching, made me think they changed it just to tone things down.

[@taistelusammakko5088]

They shouldnt sound like animals because they arent

[@zach3861]

Its because they aren't actual animals... Why would they make animal sounds if there giant creatures of stone?

[@ricklai1264]

A lot of people saying they would prefer the original but in my opinion the original was EPIC, but by gawd this is what you call a remaster. It looks beautiful. Played all 3 versions love them all but definitely would take the remaster over the original any day of the week, twice on Sundays.

The game is very beautiful, even on the PS2. It's actually one of the greatest graphical achievements on the system (it has dynamic lighting for example, a very rare thing for a PS2 game, I recommend watching a Digital Foundry video for more information). It's all about the atmosphere and interesting style I guess.

Ps2 feels like somewhere forgotten, lost and empty where the ps4 version feels wondrous, and like people should be there but aren't. Ps2 has mystery where ps4 has absence. Both great though, best remake of any game I've ever played so far, and it's all but perfect. (Edit) getting really romantic with these metaphors but; ps2 is like a tree Falling in the forest and ps4 is like stumbling on ancient ruins.

The rain effect in the final colossus answers your question. The graphics are a clear improvement. For some of the colossi I will grant that the ps3 version had better lighting and atmospheric effects for *some* of the colossi, but certainly not all or even most. The remake had terrain that looked far better and the grass/fur was less jarring to look at, and blended way more seamlessly. In the ps3 and original, it was way less clear that the penultimate colossus is intended to immediately look like a literal gorillla, whereas now it is clearly differentiated in coloration and texture quality from thr other humanoid colossi.

Al parecer nunca están contentos en el trabajo que hacen en los estudios de videojuegos. Cuando lanzaron el RE2 Remake dijeron que era horrible porque lo hicieron totalmente nuevo y con mecánicas nuevas. Y este Shadow of the colossus lo hicieron idéntico pero con mejoras muy significativas y dicen que no es bueno porque es lo mismo y según la nostalgia antes daba más emoción.

Honestly, the original is better. It had much more of a sense of place. It was misty, overgrown, desolate, and actually felt like some forbidden land untouched by man. Don’t get me wrong, the remake looks great, but it’s much too vibrant and it ruins the overall vibe the original had. Also, why did they massively tone down the colossi black blood spray? That was one of the coolest parts of taking one down.

[@bengarrison858]

I consider the remake as arguably the GOAT video game with my sole criticism being Wander’s facial structure and expression. In the original he had a 1,000 yard stare and was gaunt. He looked like he smoked a pack an hour and hadn’t slept in days and it made me believe that his emotional burden was worse than fighting a 50 ton rock monster. The remake face doesn’t convey that.

I'm happy the game is getting a new audience and there were definitely some much needed smoothing out of the controls but the graphical improvement was at the expense of making a really distinct change in art style that washes everything out the in some green hue. For those who love Ueda's games one of their greatest strengths is their very unique art design, particularly w/r/t/ lighting. The PS3 remaster maintained that but on the PS4 Bluepoint just made it look like a generic modern game *shrug*

I’m glad that all of the collosi’s deaths had practically identical animations because of the impact of the deaths.

Ps4 looks graphically better but the ps2 looks cinematically more appealing.

Details are nice in the remake, buy the overly dark form helps the monsters being intimation.

1:37 and 4:39 is where I think the remake really nailed it. I feel like they could have done more to keep the ominous dark feeling at some points too, like 3:08 so I'd say I prefer ps3 in this specific example.

[@NoNameNoWhere]

I really like your examples, because I think they do well to convey each games strength. 1:37, I'll fight anyone who says the original looks better - that sun glare was a masterful touch. With 4:39, we feel like the creature is under water, less so with the original. But 3:08 might explain why a good deal of people prefer the original. It seemed to have more contrasts between light and dark in many areas, and monsters were, at some points, more hidden by fog - which makes the monster's seem more mysterious, bigger, and haunting. But then there are other scenes where the remake does these things better. I think the biggest difference is that the remake goes for a more familiar, natural, feel. The original used a lot more glare on rocks and land, making it almost glow - it felt more otherworldly. It is ultimately darker, and that too is preferred by many players. I prefer the remake. It was a challenge understanding why people prefer the original, but I think I have a fairly good idea. And though I prefer the remake, the original's color scheme and use of colors is what made it stand out from other games. It felt otherworldly in such a fantastic way.

Damn how come they couldn’t make dark souls remastered look this good

[@fluffymilkpudding]

honestly, i like the original more. the colossi felt more mysterious and godlike when you couldn't see them super clearly, either due to fog, color washing, or hardware limitations. something about how easy they are to see now just takes the majesty away from them, not to mention how the remake seems to be missing certain cinematic choices (e.g. in the remake they almost always have their eyes shining now, instead of the original where the eyes would glow and dim depending on the state of the colossi) also, that motion blur effect on cenobia on the remake looks really dumb

[@lablueguy2000]

PS2 version still ROCKS!!!

[@CephlonMayngrum]

Artistically I prefer the original. The lack of detail give the game a more mysterious look.

[@blamkazam7943]

I absolutely love this game is remember playing it for the first time on ps2. I wish that there was more to it. Like an addition to the original story. Or maybe a second part where we are another character and it after everything that happened. It would be amazing to see a favorite get a sequel.

[@primordialone6523]

I like the "fur" of the colossus' more on the original, it looks genuine and fuzzy. nonetheless, they are both great

[@christianschadrack5466]

I prefer the original gray of the game, not this green of the ps4

[@MaximumCarne]

I don’t get why they fcked that up. Their only job was to make the game more detailed and clearer not change all the lighting and colors.

[@fastgiorila7495]

@@MaximumCarnei was wondering why tf it looked like that, i have it on the ps4 and it doesnt have that green filter

[@MaximumCarne]

@@fastgiorila7495 ahh so there is a nicer looking original grayish version. Good to know. They really should allow us to remove filters in the settings.

[@fastgiorila7495]

@@MaximumCarne yea,probably so. Ive gone through the game a few times and its been amazing so far

UM... wow~ Big different! Good video.

[@trashcanman1271]

Remake is great. But cant beat an original. Sound, color, mist effect are better on the original.

[@dalgusmaximus4557]

Only in the original or the ps3 version as well?

[@mattmoody5783]

i feel like the lighting in the original worked to make everything feel massive while the remake looks small and less aw inspiring than the original (still beautiful non the less)

[@hewerton_]

To these comment critics nothing is good enough huh

[@McMerlin11]

Oh my gosh, even the little twig-esque trees shake when the colossi walk in the PS4 version

[@brunocf8398]

Esse jogo e maravilhoso, saudades

[@speinz9430]

I can’t tell which version I like better. The PS4 version looks a lot cleaner and looks much more alive. But the PS3 version feels very reminiscent of twilight princess which is one of my favorite Zelda games, and that just has this feeling of mystery around it. I also feel like the colossi look a lot better in the PS3 version but they look great in the PS4 version two.
