9 Secret Levels You Missed In This Decade's Biggest Video Games

3. The Remastered Secret Garden - Shadow Of The Colossus

Alright, technically this came out back in 2005, but Shadow of the Colossus' jaw-dropping remake saw developers Bluepoint code some of the best graphics of the generation, and this remastered secret garden is a sight to behold.

Basically "all you're doing" is climbing the entire outside wall of the temple - but the sheer size of the building means you'll have to have found close to all 150 grip meter-boosting lizards that populate the overworld.

Once your grip meter is close to a fifth of the entire screen, you're good to go. As you can see in the above footage, it is possible to rest at key points if you use the parachute to re-navigate the terrain and land back on the wall itself.

The parachute is unlocked by beating 10 Colossi on the Hard Difficulty in Time Attack, but there's no getting around the legwork of hunting all those lizard tails.
