Abnormal Mapping 73: Shadow of the Colossus - a podcast by Em Marko and Jackson Tyler

Abnormal Mapping returns in 2018 with our first Patron-guested episode as we rise to our most massive challenge yet—the iconic Shadow of the Colossus! Em's re-evaluation of a long-disliked game and Jackson's resolve to place an old game in context go head to head as we talk about horses, monsters, remakes, and just how far games have come since 2005. This episode is as wild as any giant beast, and we're just as diligent as any sword boy trying to save a lady. 

A big thank you to Sam Howitt for suggesting we play this game. You can find Sam on twitter at @SamuelHowitt or on his podcast Myth & Kin!
