Shadow of the C, for dads playing with sons

Never played Shadows of the Colossus before and finally borrowed a PS3 to check it off the old bucket list.
So the little guy was curious and since we beat BotW together, I figured why not.
We're about an hour in and this is awesome. We just had to get past the initial Japanese-ness, but now he's super into it. Anybody else play this classic with their kid?
ETA this game is fricking difficult.

Game is a masterpiece, one of the greatest soundtracks in gaming history as well.
Some of the later Colossus fights are really great too.
Half the fight is figuring out how to bring down the Colossus, talk it out with your son I guess, ask him what he thinks about the fight, ideas, etc.

I like the game but I think it's a few Colossi too long, which is strange considering the limited scope of the gameplay but whatever. Several of them are forgettable filler and the game is weakened by their inclusion IMO.

I actually played about halfway through it with my son and daughter (7 and 5) and they really enjoyed watching me. It is funny, however, that they started to pick up on the subtle darkness of what you are doing.
"But daddy, why are we killing these things? They didn't do anything to you."
"Yeah...that's a good point."

Not a father son, but my roommates watched me play it. I would come home from class or work and one of them would be playing it because they thought it was awesome.

Stupid update that nobody asked for:
So the original PS3 crapped out enough so we got frustrated enough and gave up.
Papa P decided that the PSN version was too shitty because of crappy internet connection out here so we gave up last weekend.
BUT TONIGHT!!!! We got our hands on another PS3 and it was fricking awesome!! Took out three collossi and it was awesome!!!

Never been so proud.
I finished the game months ago (pretty emotional honestly). Little P said he lost interest which broke my heart cause I wanted to share that heart wrenching ending with him. But now he's back at it, and just told me to frick off "dad I've got this malice bitch". I shed a fricking tear and told him to watch goddamn language.
God I love video games!!!
