Shadow of the Colossus? should I

Im really interested in "The Last Guardian" and since I never had a PS2, I never played the earlier ones. I would like to see what team ico is all about and was wondering If you guys would suggest getting Shadow of the Colossus. My PS3 is not backwards compatible, so I would have to find a cheap ps2 somewhere. I only want it for this game, then I would probably sell it b/c im tight on cash. Is this a good idea or should I just wait? Are the graphics good or will I feel they're a little lame due to being spoiled by the PS3. Also, Is that game hard to find?

SotC is a wonderful game, not hard to find, it's a Greatest Hits title so $19 new. A new PS2 is what, $99? THe graphics are not "next gen" but I don't think you'd be worried about them. Ico, on the other hand is hard to find. If you want a PS2 for more than this title, I'd say go for it! But if you think spending $120+tax to play Shadow of the Colossus is steep, hold off.

i suggest you buy shadow of the colossus and keep it for your collection, and borrow a friends ps2 for a couple of hours. that's really the way to go imo

sorry for double post but ~PS. play it on a huge tv if you can and with the volume really loud! its epic

If you have never owned a PS2 before trust me, you will play other games and not only SOTC (which is an amazing game and is a must have in any collection)CosmoKing7717

And SOTC is freaking great!:D

Is there just no way i can get backwards compatibility? No upgrade, download or anything? Does psn have ps2 games to download? Could someone make a list of some games to play:

the ones off the top of my head

gran turismo 4 (don't want it b/c I don't want to get burned out before GT5)

MGS3...Im interested

GOW...Interested
