Title: Shadow of the Colossus - Hard Mode Time Trial Post by: Camanche on November 02, 2006, 01:42:07 PM Yeah, I'm trying for it right now. I've beat two so far, on the hard time trials. Yikes, they're tough if you don't plan each movement out right. Does anyone have any advice on this?
Also, I was wondering if anyone's discovered any 'secret' locations that are worth while. Places with lots of fruit trees, or white-tailed lizards, for example. And last but not least, has anyone made it to that place at the top of the temple? You'll know what I mean if you've beat the game. I can't get up there yet, and wanted to know if there was a trick to it, or if you just needed a lot of grip stamina. (Can you grab onto a hawk and hawk-ride your way up there either? I tried this, but the hawk flew over an open canyon of water, and dropped me. -_-) Though I love this game, sometimes I wish there was more in the land/more to do. So barren, but that's part of the whole story, I guess. Great game. :) Title: Re: Shadow of the Colossus - Hard Mode Time Trial Post by: Camanche on February 12, 2007, 08:03:08 PM So... uh.. who else gave up on the hard mode time trial with this game? Me... lol
I didn't listen to the people who told me it wasn't for the faint of heart. Title: Re: Shadow of the Colossus - Hard Mode Time Trial Post by: Tony on February 13, 2007, 02:18:22 PM Honestly, I'm sad to admit that I've still not even played this game aside from the demo.

Title: Re: Shadow of the Colossus - Hard Mode Time Trial Post by: Camanche on February 13, 2007, 05:08:33 PM OMG Tony! You have to at least beat the game once, which is very doable.
As for the hard mode, egad. Some of the stuff is ridiculous. I don't know how anyone does it... Title: Re: Shadow of the Colossus - Hard Mode Time Trial Post by: Paradox on February 15, 2007, 01:29:34 AM Hard mode gives me nightmares D:. I can't help, but I can certainly share your pain.
Title: Re: Shadow of the Colossus - Hard Mode Time Trial Post by: DevilRy on July 29, 2007, 12:52:02 AM Got to the top of the temple a couple of times. The trick is to jump from side to side since for some reason that uses less stamina but you still gain distance vertically. Personally I think it's more fun to walk across the bridge and check out the scenery (plus you can check out the impossibly small gap that your huge horse was supposed to have fit through) than dick around in the temple. There really isn't a whole lot to explore aside from a huge hole in the floor. I think one of the prizes in easy mode time trials maps out the locations of all the lizards so I didn't have much trouble tracking them down. I think I could only get eight time trials in hard mode. That stupid geyser one I could never get so I just gave up. I only grabbed onto a hawk once because I read you can do that somewhere and its fun to ride standing up on your horse. I rode a fair distance across the plains but it seemed to fly in the same pattern over and over so I jumped off.
