Great game that I didn't think I would enjoy as much as I did

User Rating: 8.8 | ICO PS2
Graphics: Superb. The castle environment is very detailed and realistic which really creates a great atmosphere. Sound: Good. Although there is not much music, the ambient sound effects of water, rain, turning gears are all well done and add to the atmosphere. Gameplay: Good. Control of the character is fairly intuitive. The camera only gets in the way occasionally, but, due to the nature of the game, the camera faults never lead you to death. Combat is fairly straightforward with only a couple of difficult fights. The puzzles are also fairly logical. I only needed to use a FAQ on a couple of puzzles only to find the answer to be something obvious that I missed. Overall: A must buy. I got mine for $15 which makes it a really great investment.
