Bioshock. Just shut up and do it! Or Skyrim, since Bioshock is currently dirt cheap.

This, or he has a stolen credit card.
EDIT: DAMN!! Why does this always happen?!

It probably is, but it'll be fun t do, plus, it'll give me an excuse to unlock everything.

Well, let me just rearrange it, shorten it, add a few graphics here and there... And WHAM! Replies.

I hate to bump this, but I was hoping to start some sort of discussion about this, as that could be helpful to me in finding the secret, if it exists.

Actually, it can be, so long as it's done right. And, I think a lack of weapons really helps. The other thing that would help would be going out of your way to assemble a group of four close friends to play with you rather than random ten-year-olds.
A situation in which your only allies are killed off one by one by an unstoppable monster that stalks your every move is just as frightening as facing the same situation alone. That's how multiplayer can be scary.
Multiplayer KILLED the System Shock 2 experience for the sole reason that you could fight back against the monsters, and now had twice the power. Even if the game was locked into insane difficulty, it was easy as pie, and much less scary. The same thing can't happen in a game where the only enemy is an invincible one, especially if he can one hit kill you. It will always be scary... Unless you're in a server with an annoying kid running around shouting about how he banged your mom last night. Two things are certain in that situation. 1.) He will die first, and 2.) there will be much rejoicing at his demise.

Games / Shadow of the Colossus: Quest for the... Final Secret?
« on: July 28, 2012, 11:45:09 AM »
So, not too long ago, I borrowed a copy of SotC from my local library. The game was, obviously, amazing, and I became a rather large fan very quickly. So, earlier this morning, I did a google search for SotC, and stumbled upon this. It's probably nothing, but I found it interesting all the same.
==================================================================
What We Know So Far:
Somewhere, in Shadow of the Colossus, there may be a secret hidden that has yet to be found by anyone. In order to find it, the player must find a set of something that, when viewed from a certain perspective, would line up to form a multi-rayed figure. Unfortunately, this 'set' could be anything. It could be a formation of rocks somewhere in the desert; a pair of trees in the forest; or, it could even be the colossi themselves.
The answer, oddly enough, is right under the player's nose, so to speak, and has been since the beginning of the game. Every time the player slays a colossus, he or she is returned to the Shrine of Worship. The Shrine of Worship is highly decorated, there is no doubt. However, one set of "decorations" appears to be more than that. The four-piece set of glyph blocks, found here, is actually a bird's-eye view of four very important locations within the Forbidden Lands. They are, in no particular order:
Argus (Colossus #15)'s City
Hydrus (Colossus #07)'s Lake (?)
The Shrine of Worship
The Entrance to the Forbidden Lands
When these areas are viewed from the map screen, they form a perfect cross. The center of this cross, or the Point of Intersection, happens to lie exactly over Celosia (Colossus #11, pictured above)'s Temple.
In the back of this temple lies a doorway that appears to have been bricked (or more accurately, 'stoned') over. There are steps leading up to the door, where they come to an abrupt halt. The door is set back into the wall, and is haloed by a round, Medallion-like embellishment. The entire temple is quasi-underground, and thus has no sunlight; consequently, the Sacred Sword will not reflect light; nor will the Queen's Sword. The Sun's Sword may be useful here, as it casts rays of light, even in total darkness, though none have tried using it for this purpose.
There may also be a connection between the temples of Celosia and Barba. There is a similar doorway in Barba's temple, and it is also one of the only temples (aside from Celosia's) to contain some amount of fire.
Celosia's temple also contains a stick, which can be picked up, lit and used as a weapon. It can also be removed from the temple and taken to almost any other location, including Barba's temple.
==================================================================
This may, of course, be complete nonsense, but they could actually be onto something here. I intend to find out.
