Shadow of the Colossus - Early Shrine of Worship/Quadratus battle

[Eternalclaw]

I noticed 2 things.

Basaran was the 3rd statue in the lineup (which is like... what?) and Quad's eyes were indented like the beta colossi that were never used. They mightve been in that version :( makes ya wish it was up for download eh?

Dem eyes man, dem fuckin' eyes.

Quadratus looks better when it seemed the mouth was open

That floor was in the OPM demo I think.

My, if this is the build from the time of OPM demo, this version would have a shitload of differences !

@PikolUploader That ornate floor doesn't exist in the OPM demo, or the PSU. See here:

Hmm, I'm not sure which version of Quadratus I prefer - This beta version, the final version, the first skeleton-like version, or the 'angry eyes' version in the demo reels. xD The many faces of Quaddy.

and.. i never seeing that colossus has eye like that...

[fannynearfrym789]

There are few colosus in this version?

[PedroCodemaster]

Good job Nomad! The beta Quadratus is very cool!

``Wander makes sounds like Ico when he runs´´

There is a good chance of that be from when sotc was still Nico.I mean,because before the character was a boy,they could have used the same sound

I wonder if there's a secret copy of this version lurking around somewhere on the internet. :3 That would be so amazing. I would totally download it and play it all the way through even if that does meaning it will run only at a 40 fps frame rate.

[Nomad0168]

@masterlinx767 Believe me I've looked but I don't think this version was ever released to the public. I know they made a demo with just the first three colossi and there was another version that was the full game with different colossi health icons. But only Team Ico knows how many builds there were.

[masterlinx767]

@Nomad0168 True. But who knows...days of searching could lead to finding a another copy of it. Or maybe one day the copies will somehow get leaked onto the internet. :3 probably not likely to happen..but would be awesome if it did.

[AlucardxD23]

Coooool

[MrVold3mort]

That is so cool Nomad:].Can you do one on MALUS please?

[Nomad0168]

@MrVold3mort I didn't make this, I'm just showing the few small pieces of footage there is for this early build of the game. If I had more I would upload it. Sadly, there's not much out there regarding this, just a few snippets from different videos.

[kutlessrocker23]

I remember that Quadratus as well. I kinda wish they would have kept the design. He looks more...ferocious.

[WI800]

That's the Quadratus that would always be shown in trailers or magazines prior to the game's release, I remember it well.
