  • Super playable game...

  • I want to buy this game i wantttttt

  • ICO is the shadow of the colossus that is the only child Wander i used translate google

  • ICo shadow...they need a third game or sumthing xD

  • @B5girl2342 The Last Guardian should be coming out sometime this year.

  • The best way to play this game is while you're either rolling on an e-pill, tripping on shrooms or salvia, smoking a phat blunt of chronic dipped in embalming fluid (PCP). This is true as I make it up. :)

  • Those shadow figures remind me hardly of the game "heart of darkness"

  • what is the point of this game?pliz somebody tell me i`m thinking about getting one,should i?

    like any other game that is similar to this?

    what is this about?where are enemies????

    do u just walk around?

  • @erwcat it's basically a puzzle game. like prince of persia puzzles. your in a room etc... find a way out. you pair up with the girl who has her own uses in the puzzles but dark spirits are after her. So there is some combat involved and later levels involve fighting and solving puzzles at the same time. There is no free roaming. It's a beauty of a game and worth getting. i have it on ps2 and have pre-ordered my ps3 copy - you also get SOTC which is another game from Team ico.

  • it seems like zelda's dungeon without foes

  • I used to play this game when i was smaller,

    it scared the shit outta me for some reason.

  • @ArguingDiagram Same, The shadows scared me shytless xD 

  • I would give a kidney for this game to be rereleased on XBOX360

  • @NaziFrocioNigga Aww, toooooo bad. Sony exclusive!

  • @dannyboydantaylor I obviously know

  • this game roockss

  • its hard to believe that this game is 10 years old the graphics are way ahead of its time

  • @12disneyhater it's not 10 years old.

  • @amessenger4god78 its 2011 and it came out in 2001 i could be wrong though not trying 2 start anything

  • It'll be 10 yrs. old on the 24th of Sept. :) I'd never even heard of this game til' just 2 days ago when I happened to see it at GameCrook for $39.99, it didn't even have the instruction manual with it but I knew just from the back of the cover's screen shots that it had to be related to and made by the same folks who produced Shadow Of The Colossus. This is a true work of art, we need more games like this today.

  • one of the best games ive played

    

  • I Like how calm the Girl is.. not like in Resident evil four defending Ashley (or whatever) where you can't concentrate on shooting the dicks cause she's screamin her ass off :L

  • ive got ICO and SotC both factory sealed with playstation foil sticker seal under the yfold seal, you jelly?

  • And you guys like this game?? This game's sucks

  • @LyzandroNeto Some games aren´t made for everyone.By reading your comments you like a game like God of War,resident Evil and many other shooter games.

  • @SpiritofWander1 God of War isn't a shooter game XD

  • @MrRehac Ok,about the comment of the Suxgotav.

    I mean,the major people that dislikes Ico likes games which the main character have superpowers,or something else.Or have to shoot in monsters with weapons and etc.

    I think this fit GoW and RE.Isn´t?

  • @SpiritofWander1 Well,now you're right,but i like both superpower,shooter,etc games AND Ico XD

  • @SpiritofWander1 Yeah yeah, but Resident Evil still awesome xD

  • @SpiritofWander1 Resident evil isn't a Shooter game too, is a Survival Horror Third Person game :)

  • Me at 4:33... "Holy s**t I want to jump up and hump the screen or something, I don't even know what to do it's so gorgeous"

    This game is like a really beautiful girl... it's so beautiful it actually hurts, because I want to be there and I know it'll never happen.

  • the son of shodow of colossus XD

  • @letfala02 Not really,a descendent but not son

  • i palayed shadow of the colossus and i think after finishing the game i sayed that it is the best game ever made....i wanna play ICO too ....it lucks like sotc ...sooooo epic !

  • i heard there making ico for ps3 comming out march 31

  • @videogamekev it wouldn't be "The Last Guardian" ?

  • se parece mucho a shadoe of the colossus

  • se parece a shadows of the colossus

  • ok can ne 1 tell me wat is so great about this because i heard it was good but i do not see anything too special at the moment, not to offend the ppl that like it i just want to kno

  • @Smarkand28

    Okay well it just has a nice story line from what I've read, because when this game came out I was only 6 so It'd probably be too complicated for me to play or be interested in. But for a game that came out in 2001 and has graphics like this, that's pretty amazing. I mean it was a such a jump from what you see on the play station to a earlier playstation 2 game. Hope that answers your question

  • If only Roger Ebert played this game and Shadow of the Colossus. Only then would he finally admit that games can be artistic and beautiful

  • i hate fixed cameras. i wish this game was more like shadow of the collosus. but it was first so i guess abviously shadow is going to be better.

  • Even though it seems pretty old, the animation for those characters is top notch...

    If I ever see this around I'm definitely pickign it up.

  • @TheValiance pick up shadow of the colossus to. even though its not directly stated it was the prequel for this game.

  • @TheValiance Don't buy this game or shadow of the colossus yet. They are about to re-release them both together for the PS3 in HD. But if you don't have a PS3, then by all means pick them up, they are amazing games.

  • @Drake8604 Thanks for the tip :)

  • this kid is chinese or japanese?

  • @oddlyoko2000 hes german ergo the :usva usva

  • damn i want this game so bad!

  • Does this game have any relation to SOTC?

  • @LOKITYZ yeah it was made by the same companies

  • @dastardlycow  Of that i know, what i meant was in terms of story...

  • @LOKITYZ ICO is a decendent of SOTC main character

  • this game looks lame kind of.

  • @mcalpine1390 have u even played it ?

  • @driftmaster206 he said "this game looks" not this game is.

  • This looks better than SOTC...

  • Not just hd. Complete graphical update.

  • I remember there being a demo of this at Wal-Mart. I loved it but never got around to buying it, as I'm not a gamer in general. It seems like something I would have loved though. The artwork is beautiful.

  • Just confirmed for an HD compilation with Shadow

  • @Gtamaster503 AWESOMENESS

  • this game is £100 on internet and $40 in a shop near me i just had to look it up wikipedia to see what its about and why it's so good!

  • This game was extremely hard to beat

  • I saw this at a game store for 20$ once, but I hadn't heard of it then, so I didn't get it. I would like to go back in time and slap myself.

  • @sev121993 same here, i wish i have time machine

  • Good thing her arms dont have any bones lol

  • being a great fan of SotC, i'm getting crazy hearing everytime in stores "ICO? what's ICO?".... can't find it anywhere......

  • Haha, sounds like somebody is fapping when he walks xD

  • is this game subtitled then? I want to get it when it comes out for PS3

  • sooo appearantly this game is extremely rare??

  • Well for some people this game can be boring but also many people can be bored on movie masterpieces like Godfather i think ART is just not for everybody.

  • i dont want to insult you but..

    you all make so positive comments, but when i see this game i just get so bored...

    maybe i should play it, i dont know, but watching this made me feel so... bored again.

    soemone plz make an intelligent response. til then, i`ll be playing PES xD

  • @popizanetti pes is wasting your life,you will never understand a game like ico because it does something your imagination cant grasp.

  • @kent2820 and dont insult PES!

  • @popizanetti I apologise for that, PES is the best footy game! :)

  • @popizanetti thats the whole point,its a videogame u play it not look at it criticsising it

  • @kent2820 then i´ll try it...

  • i heard jonny greenwood likes this

  • wat happen if the demons get the princess?...

    giggidi?

  • im not so intrested in this game.......

  • I like the idea of game,and all this stuff,but GODDAMIT its too depressive and too spooky...

  • @TheHellknight12 i agree.

  • i got mine at game crazy for 10 bucks

  • shadow of the colossus is better. wayyyy better

  • @StUnNuHKiN6 ICO is the orgin of it it is the complete master peice sotc can't be better

  • is this the second game from shadow of the colossus(SoTC) and wat does ico stand for???

  • Ico is just the name of the main character. This game was actually made before SOFC, get it, is one of the best I've ever played

  • It's probably one of the rarest games ever, and probably one of the best games ever.

  • I dont think i could ever see myself playing a game like this...But then again i dont know video is too short too judge..

    Anyone can tell me what this game is about and is it worth buying?

  • Thanks man, i figured it sucked.

  • @SammySueRice You must have zero respect for games with actual beauty.

  • @SammySueRice Fine I could care less about your opinions.

  • @SammySueRice Usually I believe that al art is subjective and all opinions matter. But I think you just killed that belief.

  • @TheSpriteGuy did you know it was released in 2001 took 4 years to make won game of the year and was nominated 3 times for game developers it was realeased in europe in 2006

  • @TheSpriteGuy its thought of art and video gaem art

  • if your looking for a game to your ps2 i highly recondmend zone of the enders 2 its old like ico but its hella fun and you'll literally fall asleep playing ico like i did when i got to the first boss

  • @SammySueRice lol this game only has one boss at the end of the game

  • dude worth it or not this game is probably 2 dollars now, are u that cheap to try a 2 dollar game and see for urself if its good or not. i mean if u dontlike it then hey u just spent 2 bucks u cheap bastard. unless if ur planing to buy it on the internet it might coast more

  • Hahahahahahahahahaha lol

  • @TheEgyptianOne

    actually the game sells on ebay from 30-100 dollars and at gamestop this game costs 34 dollars but is almost always out of stock....

  • i played the demo to this when it first came out ive wanted the game since i had a chance to get it used for 9bucks shouldve got it then cause its like 40 dollars used now after playing sotc and im wating for the last guardian to come out i feel its mandatory to beat ico haha. i love how ambient and beautiful ico and sotc is.

  • hell this game is old and still awesome.

  • good creations never get old.. it's just that sometimes when new creations come out, hype and graphics fool people into thinking they're good too..

  • i only played SotC and it was posibly the most epic game i played, i think this game is also vry epic and looks GREAT

  • I loved this game. It was like being stuck in some sort of lucid dream.

  • @Jader7777 Ico,SOTC,GOW 1 and 2-best games on ps2

  • its even more funny because, although the relationship between Wander and Mono in SotC is unrecognized, it is theorized they were lovers, although I have my reasons to believe that it was Wander who loved Mono(obviously), and not Mono who loved Wander. Eitherway, the comical point of view is that Wander loves mono, but was turned into an infant, which then raised by his loved one, which becomes his mom. technically speaking. lmao.

  • i see it as a person giving his opinion. lmao. nothing more. this game does look pretty cool, especially with just playing the prequel of this game; shadow of colossus. the SotC, i actually thought the repetitiveness was really lame at first, but i was drawn to complete it since i was already half way. lol. and it was worth it. SotC left me baffled, which brings up all kinds of theories as to how did mono die, who exactly were Emon's tribe yada yada. i love to theorize about that game

  • Your missing the point of the game entirely.

  • The point is that I rather like games that have more action and this doesn't look like it provides the stuff i'm looking for.

  • u ppl make your choices with such a view,,,, ," its uh.. uh.. uh.. dont like it ..." ...is that as far as your brain goes? and in a story based game how do u want it not to be annoying watching a simple 5 minute movie?you re just seeing the kid walking around slashing stuff. off course its annoying! but is the game just that? u can believe so if u want ,its called ignorance and its used as a defense when ure frustrated, or sometimes,its a state of mind .. and u cant really go deeper, shame =/

  • BEST GAME EVER :3

  • omg i so remember playing this game when i was younger back when it came out :)

    ahh the good ol PS2 memories :)

  • to tell the truth i dont see why everyone luvs this game so much my brther payed €40 for it and I found it very long slow paced and boring with practically only 1 type of enemy. I found the boss fight at the end easy and dull because its just hide behind a brick when the wave comes and then grab the sword he says its all about the storyline but theres like 5 sentences in the whole game.

  • I dont see why telling a storyline with lack of dialogue is anyting specal It reminds of picture books I used to read wen i was a baby

  • Most game dialogue is not very interesting anyway. And I think the simpler a game can be the better. Sure, it's slow-paced but constantly completing action-packed objectives as in some other games doesn't necessarily make for a better overall experience. After the 10 hours or so you invest in a game, all that matters is that the experience had some meaning to the player. This is more of an imagination than reflexes game; both have their place.

  • well ok I am going to finish the entire game and then Ill come up with my full review of it

  • this game is awsome

  • is this shaodw of the colossus 2 when he turns into a baby at the end?

    plz relpy..

  • No, this game was made before Shadow of the Colossus, but it's by the same maker.

  • Yes it is, just because one game is made before another doesn't mean it can't be a sequel, look at LoTR for petes sake! Shadow of the Colossus is a prequel to this game or at the very least in the same world. Ico could be the baby at the end of Shadow or that baby could just be one of the horned children spirits. They are at the very least set in the same world and Ico is most likely that baby.

  • this was made before, set after, dunno if it is actually wander (sotc boy) or an ancestor of his but 99% either one of those. i just won this on ebay, i love you man, im so happy

  • This reminds me of zelda

  • I bought this game for a dollar lol. I feel sorry for people who have payed such ridiculous prices for it

  • Even that price is a ripoff

  • then dont watch it,simpleton

  • fuck you -.-

  • i like shadow of the colossus , but i dont know about this game i love the game style of the sotc , its really gaming

  • I've always thought Ico and SotC had the best art style for the ps2. It just stood out from all other games and looked way ahead of its time.

  • no. okami does

  • well thats your opinion. okami is more of a cel shaded water paint style for more of an art emphasis, shadow of the collosus has a realistic and gritty feel to it.

  • OMG! Shadow of The Colossus XD

  • will i like this? i played shadow of colossus and liked it, but this game i cannot decide, will i need to play this for last guardian? Also this game is rare as hell been looking for it for mounts, only seen it for around $90 wtf

  • pretty sure i need to get this game and play it!!!

  • is it okay if i were to play the Last guardian instead of the series?

  • i would highly recommend that you play the whole series as they are all one of a kind games ;)

  • ok i abosloutly hate escort quests, will i like this?

  • its not like this the whole game, this part is a major part of the storyline

  • I will not take it back. it is the worst game i have ever seen in the entire game industry. katamari the game was better and also okami was good. but the game ico is a joke.

  • I agree, a genius like Fumito Ueda should be put to death. Long live mediocrity! Also that's one hell of a cool name you got there Mr. hellknight. I can just imagine you as a character in one of those blood soaked action packed games that i've always been too uncool to play.

  • I don't think the game was very good. I like metal gear better

  • TAKE THAT BACK RIGHT NAOOOO

  • ico, shadow of the colossus, and the last guardian are all vaguely related

  • I cant find ico anywhere might have 2 buy it online shadow of colossus was amazing tho a must have for the ps2

  • Hahahah, be prepared to pay more than 150 for this game xDDD

  • shadow of the colossus is the sequel, I believe

  • No, it's the prequel, it shows when the first kid with horns is born

  • no shadow of te colossus is the prequel

  • i think the adults are in shadow of the collosus

  • It is ? great! thx gonna get the game right now xD

  • i heard this is a sequel to shadow of the colossus is it true??

  • yes

  • Not exactly. SotC is more like a spiritual predecessor, but not a real prequel.

  • amazing animation

  • i cant wait for the last guardian on ps3

  • yeah the last gurdian looks awesome

  • ico is the descendant of wander from SOTC. if youve beaten SOTC, remember the ending

  • This game looks so gorgeous.

  • i'll never stop loving this game even though i got a ps3 !

  • Hart of darkness??

  • ICO and SOC pushed video game into poetry!!

  • i think ICO, Shadow of the Colossus, and the Last guardian are all in the same world

  • yeah now that you mention it, i could see the shadow of colossus in this

  • all he has is a stick!!

    fighting thos
