9 HUGE Video Game Spoilers That Were Ruined By Marketing

4. Literally The Three Biggest Spoilers In The Game - Shadow Of The Colossus

Now this particular trailer has also been taken down, but hopefully many will remember Sony's marketing back in 2005 going way too far in selling the more "dramatic" parts of the game.

First up was breaking any tension or mystique around what was going to happen to your partner Mono, by showing her waking up. The game starts with Mono dead or in a coma, and as you're venturing out across the plains for a good 15 hours trying to revive her... it wasn't the best foot to put forward.

But wait, there's more.

The band of humans we start to see towards the end of the game, that slowly encroach upon and shockingly infiltrate the Shrine of Worship? They're shown inside, confirming that scene happens.

But wait, there's even more.

We even saw the state of Wander after Dormin's magic has finished with him - the reduced baby-state of our hero - but most shockingly and secretively, the fact he had grown horns.

The horns tie SotC to Team ICO's titular other work, and was supposed to be the biggest "NO WAY?!" reveal at the very end of the game.
