Few puzzle games can match Ico's brilliant simplicity and artistic beauty.
At a glance, the overall concept behind this game is very contemporary: Hero meets princess, princess gets snatched, hero rescues princess. But where other puzzle games are forced to use an assortment of tools, tricks... Read Full Review

This minimalist trend did nothing good to ICO`s development
First of all I have to say that after playing Shadow of the Colossus I was expecting a lot from this game, still, I don't think that was the reason of such rating. To begin with the good aspects of the game let's talk ab... Read Full Review

Simples e direto ao ponto
Confesso: só fui atrás desse jogo por causa de Shadow of the Colossus e do ICO Team. Não sei como este jogo pode ser tão underrated, é uma obra de arte do PS2. A história do jogo é simples porém marcante, assim como os ... Read Full Review

Another cult classic, visually stunning, vibrantly immersion game by Team Ico.
Ico runs in the same vein as Shadow of the Colossus, all titles of the cult classic churning development team, Team Ico. The plot is subtle, yet deep, and you get the feeling as Ico - our protagonist - saves the princess... Read Full Review

If you can get into it, ICO is definitely a game that will stick with you for a long time to come.
GRAPHICS For visuals of this vintage from a game released in 2001 they really standup and don't seem all that old. The art direction is absolutely fantastic and that definitely helps the game's look stand up to the tes... Read Full Review

Immersive, Does its Genre a great service, Puzzling and very intriguing
ICO brought me back to gaming consoles after a long disinterest between the releases of dreamcast, N64 and such. I was lured into this game by playing a in-store demo. The opening puzzle brought me back to the store day ... Read Full Review

Perhaps it's been a teensy bit over-hyped over the years, but this is still a brilliant, evocative experience.
I remember spotting Ico for £10 at a Virgin Megastore a few years ago, but deciding against - later, I saw it for £12 at GAME, but thought I should be able to get it for £10 since I'd already seen it at that price before... Read Full Review
