I actually finished Halo 3 a long time ago...like when it came out, but I'm just now getting around to writing about it.
Also, I wrote a full review of MGS4 a while ago, which you can read here.
Shadow of the Colossus is one of my favorite games of all time....so I can't say enough good things about it.
