Unusual Shadow of the Colossus Kills - #1 Valus

[Donar0208]

MAZING! AMAZING Bro!

[Donar0208]

A... wait for it....

[RETINACANDYify]

You made Valus look like a teddy bear

[werothegreat]

How do you do the jump stab?

[Rebel581]

@werothegreat While in the air, hold R1 and press square. It's really easy to do, but it can sometimes be difficult to land (especially if the damn thing moves).

It's automatic full power stab, but it takes a long time to pull out the sword (just as long to do a full power stab in total, but if it's the final stab it's faster for time trials). It also looks badass.

[indecentthinking]

how do you survive getting thrown off a cliff?

I mean.... there was a ledge

but he was TOSSED.

[IsShitBrown]

Watching this makes me want to get my PS2 out and play it again, easily my favourite game of all time :)

[vampireobsessedhoe]

Is it too odd that this turns me on?

[aznkid156]

Now this is what I call an impressive run

[MechaDestoroyah8]

What did the colosuses do to the main character?

[dannyboydantaylor]

@MechaDestoroyah8 The story is that the main character wants to revive this girl, so Dormin, the God of life/death can revive her if he kills all the Collusoi.

[92stefanovic]

@MechaDestoroyah8 nothing, he got to kill e'm

for the love of a girl (did i sayed it correctly?)

sorry for my english

[MyPlayMySkill]

2:08 wtf stupid game

[didthatreallyjust]

i tried to do this last night after EPICALLY failing "/ yeah half an hour of continuious failing...poop

[justchokinatu]

HOLY CRAP!,like,1min and 10 sec to kill him!

[dmandbz]

lol i just climbed up the back of its leg

[AnimeAddict258]

okay like ur kill was weet but that throw was fucking amazing xD u get more points just for being that lucky to have experienced such an amazing fail fling xD

[panmandan]

2:07 What? No splatter? That would've made my day.

[PlayStatiowned]

niiiice man lololol

[TurboTom3000]

I've never seen anyone do a jumping stab attack on this game before. Nice one!

[kjun13]

NICE!!!!!

[crimsonnotex]

Holy shit, when you got thrown it was funny as hell.

[Poonybug]

I'm so getting this for my birthday. RIght mom?

[hazard740]

you can do the same basically in the 3rd fight  with gaius

[MaybeToki]

2:08 -- LOL. Wander just flew off... very far away!

Thanks for the upload! Great vid / Great Game!

[MultiDarkSlash]

hey,this is a good way to kill the colossus!

i actually dont understand how do you jump on the second part of the arm.

[311fob]

LOL I had idea there were quicker ways to kill these collossi.

[frankytap]

looks like a sick game

[realderekbrothers]

how do u do the jump stab i dont know how

[Gamerl1fe]

Jump, hold R1 + the square button.

[yattarak]

why are this big monsters so easy to beat and there are just 4 of them in whole game?

[Rebel581]

I make it look easy and there are 16 colossi in the game.

Which btw, as you can see from the bloopers, it did take me several tries to finally get that jump right.

[yattarak]

I beat 7 of this colosus so far and all was so easy. Are they getting more difficult in the end or all are so easy to beat?

[MsRunions]

@yattarak guess what stupid there is 4 + 12 lol!

[snozwanger234]

hahaha

[tsuneonyc]

2:07, now would be a good time to use the parachute item. HAHAH.

[CesarTakezoNomura1]

In 0:21 in hard mode you go to the back of the arm

[Quyen22]

5 stars

[fullmetalalchemistin]

under a minute???? thats awesome

[devilsnevercry322]

god damn that would have killed somone

2:07-2:14

[no1jailbreak]

2:07 FUUUUU

[mat967]

he use a video capture card. (or cable)

[gibuselli]

Cool, I'll try to do that, I always go to the left leg, but this is faster

And how do you jump and atack in the same time? O.o

[XPlay050894]

jump and hit crouch and attack at the same time if i remember right

[DripinYelaMadnz]

i think its attack and R1 at the same time its been forever since i played this game but do a combonation of jump attack and grab and youll get it

[fathertime171]

jump and press stab and grab at the same time to jump and attack

[Rebel581]

While I normally wouldn't care (especially since the video description hasn't changed since I put it up almost 3 years ago), it says in that exact same comment box:

I do not own any part of this game. It is the property of Sony and this video cannot be used in anyway or form for personal profit.

Try pressing the More Info button. It makes you look like less of an ass.

[KingCheez]

So you're basically saying it's unfair for people to ask to be *credited* when you use something they made?

You are dumb as a brick.

[10mech]

hey,heres a i-think-a-faster-way-to-kill colossus way,stab the behind the knee its kinda bow.during he bows you grab on his shoulder in the front

[GlitchedLink1]

Do the colossi actually have names or did you just make them up?

[ImpBrother]

The Colossi have names. All of them. They were named by the producers, because you can't have a giant, rocky, furry, glowing eyed giant, without a name :)

[Palamneus]

Omg the sad music makes me feel bad for the Colossus :C

[electriman24]

wow i dont go at hammer i go to the left leg

[Ownagedante]

Thats why its called "Unusual Shadow of the Colossus Kills"....

[Apprentice1122334455]

first of all, sephiroth give demonkiller a break. secondly how do u do the jumping stab, im guessing jump,R1 + square am i right?

[Rebel581]

Correct. While in the air, just press R1 + square to do a jumping stab. You will immediately do a fully powered stab to the colossi. It's incredibly laggy and when you finally get the sword out, you can get flung away pretty easily. It's designed to be used as the final hit to shave some time off speed runs.

[HyperSonicXtreme]

@Rebel581

2:07

LOL!! that colossus was a major dick.

[DarkSummoner00]

oh my poor giant bear :(

[demonkiller012]

ha i had to make the wiki for this game cause there was none

[Sephiroth7734]

Yeah, I SAW that wiki. It SUCKS. You wrote SotC as the Sequel to Ico, which is the exact opposite of what it is actually is. You don't even have separate pages for Ico the game and Ico the character. You ALSO don't have a page for the Dark Queen.

Don't tell people about your wikis unless they're presentable, alright?

[demonkiller012]

it was crap but them someone transferd it to icopedia

[midnightthunderboy4]

that jump stab was amazing!!!

[gremlin592]

good idea to climb up the hammer i always used to stab him in the back of the leg then climb up but thats a lot quicker and i never thought about jump stabbing either thanks. great vid

[mhali2eld]

i love your courage. the jump-stab bits are awesome.

[ParietinaeUmbra]

I love the bloopers xD Valus is fierce :k

[isocryd]

2:10 You... are... outta here!

[Lightstreetman]

vasta maldito presumido io lo mato con mas estilo

[PVPwinner]

CHEATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Omnisoldier]

the easy way is well, too easy, testing yourself like this is what this game is all about

[Comito126]

Why did you skip the cutscene? It would have made the video better.

[GaurdianOfAriolus]

I made a level of this on little big planet if any of you have that game. My Psn is Nyalugwe. I have valus and quadratus made so far. ^^

[Venomenn]

skills!!!!

[SovietNinjah]

Hey Rebel im thinking of a putting a montage together for Shadow of the Colossus, and was wondering if i could use this video, of course i will not say it is mine, and will make sure it is known that this is yours, im still not sure if i will be making it, but id like to ask you this before anything happens, Thank you -Soviet

[Rebel581]

You've got permission.

Thanks for asking. Good luck. If you decide to use the other two, you have permission for those too.

[AmigaFalcon]

savage kill

[Joecreely]

What happens to the guy at the end?

I couldn't kill this guy but I still loved the game.

[xxmeloslindaxx]

ok thankssss!!! XD i stab the sword on him with square and R1 right?? I am playing it just now ..

[xxmeloslindaxx]

excuse is there another way to kill the monster??

Because I just bought the game and I can't kill him this way

[mazterboi2]

You gotta climb up his left leg and stab him in the wound there, then he will go down and you can climb up :DD

[OkamiAce]

Yeah there is you have to jump on the hair on his left leg.There shold be a tatoo there stab it twice Valus will neel down.Climb up the back of his leg and up his back to his head.One thing you need to know is that there is a platform on his back.

[colossusslayer1234]

on hard there is a point on club elbow

[ScottShotClueGlue]

Wtf?

When I Fought Valus He Did'nt Have The Mace. o_0

By The Way I'm In England So Would There Be Any Differences In The Games?

[GTroop3]

Maybe so. I live in America and he has his mace.

[doc111green]

wtf? at 0:44-0:45 the first attack was a leap attack w/ full power. if you could glitch that on other colossus it would make hard time attack a lot easier

[DrOmni]

... That's the standard jump stab. Jump, press Ri and square at the same time - voila! The problem with it is that most colossi tend to move pretty fast and that it's difficult to aim and in the end just isn't worth it. Besides, it takes ages for him to pull the sword out again so you don't save that much time.

[axewazerwazer]

now THAT is how you kill a colossus

[KeyHero21]

haha, like the bloopers. You got SUPER lucky on this boss! I never would've thought you could do that.

[TheArtistOfCherries]

What are those black tendrils that rise from the colossus' corpses and seemingly kill you?

[Funkroza]

their souls

you drain theyre souls and each time became like.... a colossus, watch the end

*MASSIVE SPOILERS*

[themaniacboy]

when i first played the game, this bastard scared the shit out of me, i was very scared of giants, and i thought i wouldn't be anymore, i think im most scared of the Human Like Colossus

don't call me an pussy, cuz everyone has a fear

[Oblivionator]

Really? That's interesting. My Dad's scared of Killer Whales for some reason XD, so your fear isn't that unusual. In comparison anyway XD.

[themaniacboy]

haha :D

it's weard dude, most of the people i know are scared of little spiders, but they are not scared of a big giant ;)

[raxzen]

that is because spiders have lots of legs

[themaniacboy]

yeah, it's weard, if i take 4 legs from a spider and only 2 legs are left, then they are not scared anymore

i think that typical, because the spider cant do anything with 2 legs

[sukkaxoxo]

aahhhhh how are u playing time attack i can't get on it

[mistssa]

you have to finish the game at least one time.

[sukkaxoxo]

i did but how do u start it ;o

[mistssa]

When u finish the game, u have to load the finished game and then u will start a new game, but when u save the game, it have to show u "1" it mean that u have finished the game 1 time.

Note, sorry for my english

[Stradivarius8457]

I love the blooper where he throws you way off the cliff, lol

[robotzrus]

Even though people like Jarrod Mitchell are faster, or TopDollar are better at tricks, you are probably the best at climbing the colossus.

[bgates87]

It looks like you practiced that a lot, the way you time your jumps with the movement of his arm to fly up onto his shoulder. I haven't watched the rest of your videos so maybe you already knew this but you can do something similar against the third Colossus Gaius to get up onto his arm without making him break his armor first.

[Rebel581]

It didn't take me longer than an hour to discover and record this trick.

I also know about the third colossus trick, but I don't have a video of it because I didn't learn how to do it myself. All of the tricks in my videos are things that I learned on my own. Because I already knew the trick (and so did my target audience), I didn't deem it as "unusual". I didn't find another way to do #3 though and I was borrowing the game from a friend. That's why I haven't created more videos in a long time.

[persianking44]

Barba and Valus seem to me to be the exact same collosi, with different head designs and Barba being (or at least looking) much older than Valus.

[PullusPardus]

seriously, i didnt know that you can do a stab while jumping lol

[TheyCallMeDarkness]

wow...great video, just a question:

how do you hit your enemy with the sword just afret the jump? (0:43/0:47)

please reply.

[Rebel581]

You press R1+Square while in the air.

Lucky, I usually don't check my comments for these videos anymore. Too many people post REALLY stupid things. The amount of people that have told me how to jump on his leg and stab him until he falls down (and I am pretty sure they believe I don't already know this) is remarkable.

[ChongoTheMoose]

less than a minute! wow, good job man, 5/5

[shelbyfanman]

I KNEW! I knew you could get up that way! I could just never do it....

[iSpiffyProductions]

amazing...

[Cptnoficeland]

You should rename your videos to Epic Shadow of the clossus kills

=)

[wolflet7]

Omg, dude, you are freaking brave I could never do that lol.

[burlong01]

its a video game. how does that make anyone brave?

[wolflet7]

Well, I hate dying on video games and he was pretty risky. I kind of like to put myself in the position, so to me it's brave/risky. I hope Team ICO comes out with their PS3 title soon and they better live up to their 4 year rumors.

[elipaul17]

Arashiku its all about using the colossus' movements to ur advantage for example if ur holding on to the 9th colossus' arm and he lifts it and u jump u'll jump much higher

[thinking77]

wait, what is arashiku? a martial arts form develped for soct????

[elipaul17]

no i was replying to a guy named arashiku

[arashiku]

WTH? Those jumps after you were on his arm? How the - ?

[illuminnatuz]

cool vid

bloopers at the end were funny too

[Michaelas11]

Haha love how he flinged you off the stage

[AndrewGal]

Is it possible to kill the collossi with the arrows if you try hard enough and you have unlimited life, theoretically? What happens if you dont kill them and just let them keep moving?

[Kuroryu00Setnara]

If you don't kill them, the battle hasn't its end, so you can't proceed with the game. Sure, if you don't attack them, first or later they will attack you, if you just stay there running around.

[AndrewGal]

Do they just keep walking through the different areas of the map?

[Kuroryu00Setnara]

No, they stay there, in their own area.

Actually, I don't really know if you can leave the battle aerea without killing the Colossus.

[grieva666]

u can leave the area, i was a bit stuck on 16 so i ran off and searched 4 fruit 4 an hour lol

[takesonetokillall]

@grieva666: how did you leave the 16th colossi's area?

the bridge going back collapses before the fight, so i don't see how that's possible.

[grieva666]

woops, meant 15th sorry

[takesonetokillall]

@Kuroryu: You can leave without finishing off the colossus.

Unless, of course, your only way back is cut off...

[thelinkman]

they just stomp around in circles. lol

[Rebel581]

The arrows can only do a certain small amount of damage to the colossus (really small, barely noticeable). And in order to do that damage at all, you have to reveal the weakpoint with the sword first. When the sword is near the weakpoint, it automatically reveals it. That's why the sword doesn't have this problem that the bow has.

Its really annoying since you can kill the colossus with flash arrows but you have to keep reshowing the weakpoint with the sword.

[beefslasher]

how do you do that jump stab

[Narutosage111]

You sure did that differently than I did...

I went STRAIGHT FOR ITS FEET!! lol

[stoormtropper5]

why do have to have a time limit

[EMOhippyhair01]

it's time attack mode. beat the game 1 time and you unlock it, or beat it on hard.? i forgot.

[wedgeff7]

You know, i feel guilty about killing those colossi... They play that sad music whenever one dies. I especially loved the giraffe one (with the peekaboo in those caves) and the bird (my fave:) and a cool-looking one)

Great vid. I wish i had done it like that...

[Kuroryu00Setnara]

I felt really sad too. Why should we kill them just for that girl? She has died, that's it. The Colossi are alive, and we have to kill them to revive her. It makes no sense at all! She could never revive, if it was for me. I killed the Colossi just to see the ending, not for Mono (the dead girl).

[FrankMiller]

I think that's part of the feeling. You might have to do things you don't like to get to things you like everywhere in life. Same guilt here, anyway.

[chicodepuertorico]

I agree i nvr looked at the colossi as being evil creatures infact thruout the game i felt as if Wander (the boy) was the villain. At first i also thot they were dieties

[discofighter]

but this is on easy mode

[riogakun]

is there time attack on hard mode?

[illuminnatuz]

yep.

[HannibalLectorII]

the black thing is ,yea, the essence of the colossus. but it gives you the power of it...

thats how the sixteenth colossuses power just does it for you (players finished the games know what i mean)

[imnotgovernorwatts]

isnt it part of dormin cause thats what he says at the end that you helped restore him cause he had been shattered or banished or whatever you wanna call it.

[JaniceChaos]

I konw I am really bad playing, but you! you are my hero!

Well done!

[chaostainted]

still the best game ever

[vincentsclone]

Dude that guy has skills!

[SheenaZelosNaruto]

what's with the weird black thingy tht ko's you? what's that for?(does not know because has never played game. only heard about it)

[rahi892]

thats the esense of the collosus dieing... aparently the collosus like making sure you go down too

[WanderxRebirth]

no..

thats dormins essence. It was sealed in the seal which you destroy and it goes into you.

[giovannidark1993]

This Game is The Zelda in Nintengo and the FABLE in microsoft

[JenCatLady]

Nicely done! I also enjoyed the bloopers reel - the part of falling off the head partway down the cliff was especially funny.

[Umbra1277]

a most unusual tactic to take Valus the Minotaur down its very good

[Zhark00EW]

I wonder how hard is the flying birdgiant on timeattack... *__*

[ResidentRedead]

Haha didn't half take off at 2:08 xD

[pingyownz]

u can also cut his leg he falls on his knee then u can climb up.

[lanceruto]

you can also grab on the birds and fly to him

[OneTrueSonic]

man that was impressive

[Bluemagus]

dude i did not know u could grab his club and jump up altho im tired of my friends always asking me to beat valus for them...well except for one of my friends he and i are good but not as good as u

[EnergyKI]

Nice jumps man, your pro!

[EnergyKI]

Nice jumps man, your pro!

[Deliduis]

wow nice my time is 46 sec

[mam2z]

OMG!!!

[TheArachnoid]

Hmm...The Minotaur Colossus.

[FireChamp39]

lol the bloopers made me laugh so hard

[the1991fox]

it's the saaaaaaaame

i clamed from his foot

cooool

i like ur playing

[Sandro234]

LMFAO I love being launched into oblivion by various colosi xD

[OmegaEclipse]

dude how how did you do the jump stab? that was awesome. lol cool bloopers.

[Sparrow408]

Lol I can do this one in less than 1:30. All I do Is knock him down, climb up his front, jump to his jaw, climb up his head, and crack his head open lol. The funnest one is desert sand lizard, the one with 4 wings and flies like crazy.

[inzanozulu]

The point isn't to kill quickly, he's trying to show unusual ways to defeat the colosi.

[Shakkinai]

Desert Sand Lizard? I thought it was a Leviathan. Looks like a beetle.

[sethdonut]

Wow. Nice!

[Tritaga]

2:08

PWNT! XD

Nice climb, wish i could be that lucky T__T

I can't wait for Fumito Ueda's next game on ps3. The way I feel after playing both of the games he made so far (ICO and this one), I'd buy all of his and Suda 51's games (Kill
