Few video games achieve mainstream cultural relevance. Fewer still get labeled as "art." And only a handful of games that get through the culling manage to retain their relevance across decades. Shadow of the Colossus is the exception to the rules of video games.

What makes it so unique? How has its place in gaming culture evolved? And why does it play a special part in the life of today's guest, video essayist and author Jacob Geller?

Act 1: Why Shadow of the Colossus never lost its relevance
Act 2: How Shadow of the Colossus launched a critic’s career
Patreon bonus: The future of video essays about video games
Act 3: News of the Week
