A boy with horns guides a mysterious princess through a desolate land, all the while fighting off shadow creatures with a stick., if you haven't played this game, you're missing a true ****c. Buy it, finish it, and then go play Shadow of the Colossus
You may not like ICO, you have to protect yorda most of the time and might get a little frustrated, be patient.
Also this is the european version which means you get a different ending than the american version.
And in this version there is a 2 player mode, you can play as ICO and the other player plays as yorda, and its Eye-co (ico) not eco.
Some puzzles are hard to beat and made me scratch my head a little, but i got around it and completed the game and beated the queen of darkness.
You can use other weapons not just the stick, you can find in the game.
The atmosphere is amazing and really sucks you in.
If you're like me you'll want to protect yorda with your life its a difficult mission and enemys on be more than 5 on screen, i think i fought 7 once ? :P
As you progress enemys will be tough and hard to beat, you can escape of course. alright enjoy ico i won't spoile more :P
Great game.

As for Shadow Of The Colossus i can't remember much :P.
but i'll just post this and enjoy kicking some colossus ass ;).
The game's storyline focuses on a young man commonly dubbed "Wander" who enters a forbidden land and must travel across a vast expanse on horseback and defeat sixteen massive beings, simply known as colossi, in order to restore the life of a girl named Mono. The game is unusual within the action-adventure genre in that there are no towns or dungeons to explore, no characters with which to interact, and no enemies to defeat other than the colossi.
Shadow of the Colossus has been described as a puzzle game, as each colossus' weakness must be identified and exploited before it can be defeated.
Shadow of the Colossus is regarded as an important work of art and cited as an influential title due to its minimalist landscape designs, immersive gameplay and emotional journey. It received wide critical acclaim by the media and was met with strong sales compared to Ico, due in part to a larger marketing campaign, and the soundtrack was widely praised. It won several awards for its audio, design, and overall quality. Shadow of the Colossus is also referenced numerous times in debates regarding the art quality and emotional perspectives of videogames.
You have to play this game. you understand the love:x.
