Ico is a pain in my ***

Ok. I bought Ico the other day and it's nothing like I thought it would be.

Every room you go in is a god damn mystery. I spend over an hour getting out of one section to walk into the next room and become baffled once again about what I have to do.

Is it like this for everyone or am I just an idiot? Maybe I should play with a walkthrough?

Shadow of the Colossus is much better.

Getting lost in ICO is the whole of the game. You stuck, imprisoned in this place where it suppose to be misleading. Don't worry, your not the only one with such experience. I was like that the first time I play the game.

Try to avoid the faqs because it would ruin the game. There's nothing like working out the puzzle yourself, using nothing but your brain.

:P

True. I didn't use a FAQ for any part of Twilight Princess and I enjoyed it more because of that. It's more satisfying solving the puzzle by yourself.

Well... the puzzle in ICO isn't that hard. They can be misleading, just keep it simple.

:P

ahh, yes, welcome to the greatest environmental puzzle game around.

The puzzles aren't really that hard. What is hard is remembering what you have to do next. But, there is nothing greater then completing the whole game yourself with just your brain. The whole feeling of being trapped and not knowg what to do was one of the reasons why this was one of THE BEST games for the ps2.

Also, if you are stuck, the girl (i forgot her name, sorry) will be very helpful and point to whatever it is you need to use. So, if you dont knowwhat to do, just keep her in sight and she will help her in her special way.

oh yea, if you got the PAl edition then there are 2 messed up puzzles one rigth after the other... they drove me mad! Its not hard to figure out, just a pain in the timing.

so yea... enjoy.
