A Cinematic Masterpiece

by smokeyhat Jan 2, 2010, 1:45 AM PST

The breathtaking sceneries in this game could only be accredited to Sony's artistic talents. One can truly appreciate the level of detail that went into each Collosus (Even the little ones). The overall story is sad but the quest to conquer each monster presents the player with a myriad of options on how to "Mount" the leviathons. The controls do tend to get a little frustrating but thats a small price to pay for such a great game .I love this game and can't wait to play it when I return home from this deployment.

Bring to the PSN!

I have really wanted to play this game since I heard about its greatness over a year ago, but I don't own a PS2! I just got a PS3 a month ago, and I am hoping the start to release PS2 games on the PSN because of the no backwards-compadibility. Listen the the fans, Sony!

Uno de los mejores juegos de la historia en mi opinion, las graficas son exelentes y la historia es bastante envolvente, seria genial que sacaran la continuacion para PS3.

"In my opinion one of the best games ever created, the graphics are stunning an the history is awesome, wish ICO Team creates a PS3 version"
