Good stuff, I picked up a very battered version 2nd hand after a year or so of looking for it (haven't seen it since). I'd certainly pick up a new copy as I've finished the game 3 or 4 times now and will definately be coming back to it.

I love short games. Only takes 3 or 4 hours to replay them again. I always end up selling on my long games.

Cool, I never got a chance to play that.

But if I give in... then I'll have all 3 consoles... and I'll be wondering how the feck that happened! Maybe a cheap 2ndhand PS2...

Heh heh I'm here tucking into wander and the collosus right now. It is as special as I had hoped. The Japanese version comes with a DVD of shadow and ICO footage but I won't watch it till after finishing collosus.
I have been trying to find a copy of ICO for years after borrowing it from a mate but have been unsuccesful. This is great news.


Now back to killing the next monstrosity of stone and flesh...

Well there are more games on it that you would like than on the xbox that those Halo monkeys working in Game probably badgered you to buy. Also Shadow of the Colossus and Katamari need to be experienced.

Ah, I'll prolly pick this up...had the original ltd edition but after seeing what price it was fetchiung on ebay, I played through it one last time and sold it for a tidy profit.

I dont own a copy but ive played through it, and ill definitely buy a copy now. Its the sort of game i can imagine pulling out in 10 years for a quick go and still being amazed by the gameplay and beauty.

Thats how it all starts kirby. One minute youre thinking "I can handle it, i can take all 3 consoles..i can quit any time i like!!". Next thing you know youre drinking dutch gold from a hobos pocket in a bus shelter, screaming about tekkens, and ninja gaidens, and wondering where your life went. IT'LL HAPPEN TO YOUUUUUUUUU!!!!!

I think I'll pick this up too... I'll have to buy a PS2 first, but I've heard so many good things about this and Colossus (and Katamari), I think it would be a good investment.

Christ, I got a second copy of this in before in xtra vision. It was selling for a fiver. Full pack and everything. I borrowed it for awhile. Would have bought it if i'd have known it was worth anything.

Well it looks like I'm going to have get the mammy to buy me a PS2 for Christmas. A copy of Ico got traded in today and was swiftly pounced on by a certain brightly-coloured person. Got it for 37.50, and I think that was worth it.
