After I played Shadow of the Colossus, I also want to play the first game of the developers, ICO.
First I saw some pictures and thought: "A boy with a horned helm? Oh my god, not again a usual fantasy setting!" But as I started the game, I saw the potential of this game.
With the birth of the horned boy came the plagues of his village, the children carried off, and the crops were withering. All prayed and prayed to which they should leave the curse, but nothing happened. Thus came to Icos twelfth birthday, just after the old tradition, which took riders and the child. No tears shed by the parents as they had to give up her child, for a long time his fate was sealed. They took him away and put him in a gloomy castle. There was a room full of stone built chests, whose gruesome role, he should learn to know at once. Alive, he is included for the benefit of the village, in the hope of averting the curse of the village.
But the boy wasn't alone. He rescued a lovely maid, called Yorda and the boy must not only rescue himself but must also protect this girl, if he want to escape the castle!
From the beginning, a dense atmosphere of the packages the games, which was superbly converted. The walls develop under the twilight Having generated by the atmospheric music almost a life of its own. And there are some dark creatures, lurking in the corners ...
Similar to SotC ICO creates its own world, in my opinion it is more than pure entertainment!

Thanks!
The track is called "Voyage to Eternity". Is an old MOD-song! If you like it, I can send it to you via E-Mail!

Nice! I like your choices of pictures!
Where did you get the music that you used in the background? It sounds familiar!
