IGN Reviews – Ico & Shadow of the Colossus HD Game Review

25 Comments

1. Pirates

2. I want to play Ico so bad, but I've got no way to access a PS3.

3. Disculpen tiene trofeos los 2 games?

4. Lo voy a compra en 2020 aaaahhaaa

5. ico & sotc are sony studios games so no way in hell they came to switch or xbox!

6. sotc have both gameplay & story but ico just have story and aged pretty well! you can play ps2 or ps3 or ps4 version of sotc but ico gameplay aged so much and was a gem many years ago not now!

7. I don't get the appeal of SotC. Fighting slow and lumbering bosses without any real danger or need to dodge or strategise, not to mention the lack of gameplay variety, makes it more of a chore than a joy to complete.

8. Please bring Ico and Shadow of the colossus on the NINTENDO SWITCH it will sell

9. ICO! ICO! ICO! On the NINTENDO SWITCH

10. I beat both of this game but I love ico a lot more than Shadow of the colossus

11. Bring this game to the Nintendo Switch please

12. I played shadow remastered on ps4 and I'm now playing the last guardian on ps4

    can't help but pray for a ico remaster even though ign is kinda trashing it

13. This review is too harsh on ICO. The game is a gem and one of the most influential games of the last 20 years. It has been acknowledged as a major influence by people like Jenova Chen (Journey), Neil Druckman (Uncharted, The Last of Us), Hidetaka Miyazaki ('Souls' series), Arnt Jensen (Limbo, Inside), Phil Fish (Fez) and many others… This guy doesn't know what he's talking about. ICO was a game changer, in a much bigger way than SotC. Even SotC is directly (for obvious reasons) influenced by ICO and wouldn't have existed without it. ICO deserves respect and should be enjoyed by everyone who loves modern gaming.

14. I bought this a few days ago – Never played it in my life – So Excited to fire up my Ps3 now 😀

15. Look forward to getting this having not played the games before.

16. You compare this to the new Ps4 version and wow what an improvement over this 🙂

17. oi

18. Shadow of the colossus is my all time favorite game, i can not express with words the impact that this game had on me, it is truly a work of art and a landmark video game

19. I just downloaded shadow of the colossus because the other didn't interest me

20. SotC is a MUST play for any real gamer

21. bro a couple of bosses in shadow colossus was eerie. very. like the one where you have to swim… ugh. and even when the flying one begins. half the colossus give the feeling of "I'm scared, I'm actually scared." and "how the ** am I going to defeat this

22. Which to get, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus HD collection or The Last Guardian?

23. Screw you man. We Love ICO.

24. Ico, along with Beyond Good and Evil, are some of the games I return to at least once a year to rekindle my love affair with games and are without a doubt as close to you can get to high art in the game genre. I also disagree with the reviewer saying Ico hasn't aged well. Ico is a wonderful journey to embark on and the ending is just amazing.
    The sound effects alone are amazing, from the seagulls, to the drip of cascading water, the clink of chains, the cavernous howl of the wind, or the flickering of a torch. Minimalist gaming at its best.

25. The ICO child looks like the one in last guardian
