|gameinfo          = Players take the role of a young man seeking the truth of an ancient tale of power hidden in a mystical land. Shadow of the Colossus is a majestic journey through ancient lands to seek out and destroy gigantic mythical beasts. With a trusty horse at your side, players explore the spacious lands and unearth each towering Colossus creature. The uneasy task of defeating a Colossus relies on intelligent puzzle solving and action oriented gameplay. Armed with strong wits, a mystical sword and a sturdy bow, players use cunning and strategy to topple each behemoth.

|Comments=Originally, I wasn't using MTVU or OPH flag and had EE cyclerate and VU cycle stealing at 1, and there was noticeable lag; sometimes framerate would drop to around 45fps, but got low as 30fps during the battle with Gaius. Lag wasn't always particularly noticeable as I was initially using Async Mix audio. Increasing EE cyclerate and VU cycle stealing to 2, enabling MTVU and OPH flag hack made the game run at full speed at all times. Only issue I still noticed was faint white lines at the left and upper sides of the screen, most noticeable in cutscenes and underwater (presumably they'd be more visible if I didn't increase the zoom). Fully playable.

==Trivia==
* Original names: '''ワンダと巨像''' (SCPS-15097) & (SCPS-19320) & (SCPS-19335), '''汪達與巨像''' (SCAJ-20146), '''완다와 거상''' (SCKA-20061)
* Also known as '''Wang Da Yu Ju Xiang''' (AS), '''Wander to Kyozou''' (JP, KO)
* Shadow of the Colossus is one of PCSX2's most popular games, but it is one of the most complicated to emulate due to the fact that the original PlayStation 2 release pushed the limits of the console and often suffered from frame-rate losses. This game is very CPU intensive, even for PCSX2.
* The game has a built in 16:9 widescreen mode that results in a larger portion of the world being visible. Switching to the widescreen mode has a small impact on performance.
==Known Issues==
{{Issue
|IssueName=Low performance
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=2
|Description=Game runs very slowly.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Emulation Settings > Speedhacks, and increase the EE Cycle Skipping until it runs smoothly. Note: Using EE Cycle Skipping can cause certain textures to become translucent, specially when viewed from a distance.
* '''Workaround:''' Go to Config > Emulation Settings > Game Fixes, and enable OPH Flag Hack. This should lead to a noticeable boost in performance in some areas.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Over-bloom
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=1
|Description=The bloom lighting is too bright, making it difficult to see much of the screen when out in sunny locations.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, use the OpenGL Hardware Renderer and set "Accurate Date" to "Fast" and "Accurate Blending" to "Medium". Alternatively set Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.
* '''Workaround:''' Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, and set CRC Hack Level to "Aggressive" (Note: this disables the bloom effect completely).
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Texture misalignment
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=The bloom on Shadow Creatures, Pigeons, Wander's Sword, and Mono's Dress are placed to the upper-left of their proper position.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, click "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks and enable the "Half-Pixel Offset" hack. Enabling the "Half-Pixel Offset" can result in flickering white lines along the top and left borders of the screen. Go to Config > Emulation Settings > GS Windows tab, and set the Zoom to 102.60% to remove the flickering lines. Using TC Offset(350, 350) instead of the half pixel offset hack fixes flickering borders and misaligned motion blur, but causes issues with distant terrain. Alternatively set the Internal Resolution to "Native", or set Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Dark border at bottom right of screen
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=A dark grey/black texture appears along the bottom and right edges of the screen when upscaling.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, click "Enable HW Hacks", go to Advanced Settings and Hacks, and set "Half-Pixel Offset" to Normal (Vertex).
}}
==Fixed Issues==
{{Issue
|IssueName=Weird Shadows
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=All characters in the game, including Agro cast bizarre, outlined shadows.
|Workaround=Use the latest version of PCSX2.
