(You can get a PS2 new for a hundred dollars or used for fifty dollars from Amazon.com, if you'd like to!)

The point about the lack of music is a good one. I tend not to really register that there's no music until I approach a Colossus's lair and the music begins, at which point the earlier silence retrospectively becomes extremely unsettling. (The fourth Colossus is sort of cute, until it starts staring down tunnels for you, which is just terrifying.)

Wander's swimming is ridiculous. His running is slightly ridiculous as well. Do you need to flail quite so much, Wander?
