Super Awesomo!

by Macpooter Oct 19, 2009, 10:38 PM PDT

One of the best and visually stunning games for the PS2. Great story but most of all amazing gameplay. I wish they would re-make this game for the PS3 or create a new story with the same amazing Colossi.

I cannot stress how Great this game is. Team ICO knows how to make games and this one should not be missed. Graphic art style is so original and detailed. This game gets emotions going and thats Rare in games for me. Buy and play if you haven't already!

My all-time favorite,

by amblerpast Aug 28, 2009, 8:46 AM PDT

This has to be one of the greatest games of all time. The graphics blew me away, along with the style. The story line had me entertained emediately. The game play blew my mind away. Wow, I expect most people to know the story line. All youu really need to know is that you won't be dissapointed if you buy this game.

It Felt Good to Be Out of the Rain

In the desert, you can't remember your name because there ain't no-one to give you no name.

Except in this case, the horse's name is Agro and you're the nameless one. You're on a mission to revive a girl named Mono and a voice in a temple tells you what must be done: slay sixteen giants that are scattered across the single most vast landscape in PS2 history. With only Agro and whatever lizards you can find for lunch to keep you company, each battle provides a sensation that you are actually playing a PS3 game. The visuals are at this console's best and most of the enemies can and sometimes will crush you to death under their foot without even noticing. Paired with Ico, the game to which this is a prequel, you are treated to an epic story the depths of which can be especially apreciated by anyone with an eye for archetecture, mythology, and most importantly literature.

É um Colosso

by uryzen Jul 30, 2009, 4:08 PM PDT

Essa é a palavra para descrever este jogo, não há outra. É um jogo que você mergulha e se torna parte dele se ICO já era bom esse eleva o espírito da aventura e dos desafios impostos a você pode comprar esse vale, o unico erro é a flata de mais oclossus para derrubarmos.

Awesome

by kingzomby143 Jul 26, 2009, 1:42 PM PDT

I have played this game for a very long time and it still never gets old. And the map is so big that i am still finfing new things. i have only beat the normal mode and normal time attack. I just need 4 more colossi before i beat it on hard mode timeattack then i will have beat the game completely...but anyway this game is awesome. The scenery and the stoyline is great. Plus it is allways fun to jump on a giant's back and stab the heck out of them.

Unique

It is way different than all the games I own and the landscape is beautiful. These behemoths are no easy deal either, each other colossi is different with their own weaknesses. There was one problem I had with my game; one time I saved my game to my memory card and it erased ALL my data. It is probably just my luck.

Collossuss Game!!

by Al-Dhubai77 Jun 9, 2009, 12:12 AM PDT

You will not find a game that is as well put together as this!!!
The music, graphics, concept is second to none. As a PS3 owner I have recently managed to obtain a copy due to the lack of innovation on Ps3 titles I have been once again been climbing collosi and been loving it can't beat the dream like state this game leaves you in, what next for the Ico world CANNOT WAIT!!! Have seen some footage for the next installment, how authentic is another matter, chk it out G.Vid "Project Trico" want more collossus chk out the film "Reign over me" with Adam Sandler, alot of refernce to the game and in game footage :)

Im suprised none of the other Secret Seekers have reviewed this

by Nate-The-Hunter May 31, 2009, 9:21 AM PDT

This game is a rarity! Usually when you fight a giant monster you must use your rocket launcher and shoot it in the face from 300 yards. This game is so much more complex! It is a giant puzzle, you must not only climb up them and stab them, but you must outsmart them. You are given a bow, a sword, and a horse. That is absolutely all that you get. No special powers or anything. It is one of the finest games ever made. It should not be called a game, it should be called a piece of art!
