You guys haven\'t played this yet huh?

Just released in the UK I guess?

Anyway it\'s one of my favorite games. I loved the puzzles. Some were done right mean.

You will probably get stuck here and there for what seems like forever and then all of a sudden you will be like. "Duh, how come I didn\'t think of that before?"

Great Game.
A little short and lacking in replay value, but still a classic.

Later

I got mine on wednesday the 20th (Netherlands).
I really love the cardboard packaging and the \'artcards\'.
The artwork is better than the USA box imo and in
the typical de Chirico (surrealist painter) style. Hence it
got the name Ico I guess.
The game itself is highly enjoyable and it sets an
ambient mood as well as a bit scary mood. Gamplay
character animations and puzzles are great.
Thumbs up for :cool:  Sony who prove they can make a
game as a first party dev just as good as Nintendo or Sega.

I\'m really glad people are enjoying this game... It is personally my one game.... Ok this and Shadow of Destiny or Memories.... Where I have to look back on it and try it again, and again. But even after you beat the game... A week later you\'ll be thinking..

Ahh.. I miss the fun in Ico.. I wanna play it bad! I miss the story!

It was the same for me with Shadow of Destiny/Memories.

Just how it was like for me with Ico - I played it almost non-stop the first night I got it! I got it the same time as Silent Hill 2, I popped in Ico played for 2 hours. Then I FORCED myself to stop playing and try SH2.

I put it in and played for 10 minutes... I then said, "screw this! Too boring!" and popped in Ico... I guess I wasn\'t all over the thought of blood and guts like I thought.:D





Funny thing is... I\'m no more than 1 hour into SH2.. I still have the save though, but I just have to much going on with other games.

Played the demo, and enjoyed its sublime, ethereal qualities.

And for a rather short demo, came quite attached to the Princess.

Marquis, wait until you play the ful game then. it surprised me for what little communication you have with her, that
how attached you become. it\'s ethereal. now this is a big statement but this imho absolutley kills MGS2..

Yeah, i said it. i waited ages for MGS2 but on hindsight, it didn\'t meet expectations at all. the graphics were excelent
in MGS2 but it didn\'t hold it together for me. ICO is a marvel in all aspects of the game. i also really enjoyed
Shadow of Memories so this may just be the knd of game i really like. Everyone iv\'e shown the game to absolutley love it.
it\'s a game that i rank in my top 5 of all time, easily. The ending was excelent and brought a lump to my throat.
And yeah, i ai\'nt ashamed to say so. if this game doesn\'t pull at your hart strings then you ain\'t human.

Believe the beauty that\'s ICO

Sounds very good Stanzo, and I value your opinion.

Is it true that once you complete the game, and re-start, you\'re able to understand what the Princess says?
