The Colossi themselves are a blast to combat. Some are big and slow, others are smaller and quicker, and there are a couple of airborne types that take you for crazy roller coaster rides.

The ending kinda twists your mind, too. I found it to be well worth playing.
I was thinking about picking up that one too. I played the demo, though, and unfortunately on my TV the game doesn't look so good. Its fully the TVs fault though, as everything just ended up looking too washed out. Still, the concept of "only boss battles" is pretty cool.
