Agro is the most extreme hero EVER.

Hey kids. We've all played Shadow of the Colossus. If not, get out of my blog. No seriously. Bye. Go play it. Then come back and we'll talk.

All done?

Alright so Wander from the game is currently duking it out with several other characters to be one of the ten reader-selected heroes picked for the final bracket in the All Time Greatest Hero challenge. I'm not so sure about this one. While I like Wander and all, you have to admit there is something a little dubious about him and his situation. You can't help but feel sorry for the colossi he wakes and kills... they seem innocent, and that makes Wander a little less than heroic.

There is one character in the game that never wavers from heroism: Agro! Agro, Wander's horse, is self-sacrificing until the end and a much better hero than Wander will ever be. Get Agro the recognition he deserves - [url=http://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=26998415&msg_id=315015759#315015759]join the movement[/url]!

Grassroots people, grassroots. :P

I'd absolutely love to hear all your thoughts on why or why not Wander is actually a hero. Let's talk about it! Feel free to comment in my blog or in the ATG forum thread. :)
