Shadow of the Colossus / ICO

Post by Tyche »

I know other people here have played SotC, but has anyone played Ico?

I just finished Shadow, and am currently playing Ico. Yorda is kinda... dumb. :( And Wander is sorta... hot. =P~

Anyone else notice how he changed through Shadow?

I have ICO. It's a wonderful game. Took me a while to find it, but thanks to some guy at an EB I didn't have to buy it online!

The changes to the Wanderer were pretty apparent XD His little horns made me smile. But the ending didn't. Putting you in a situation where you can't win ...

YES! SotC is awesome I played it and it was badass, I would like to comment with you cool people on this but...I haven't played ICO. Please forgive me.

His little horns developed through the game? O.o I thought just his skin color/texture and hair color. O.o

What was your favorite colossus? I had a lot of fun with the 4th one. =p My bf needed my help with it. xD

And I over think in Ico. <.< It's not as challenging as I make myself think it is, kinda like LoZ: Master Quest. :x

Gio, GET ICO OMG! xD

Of course they do, they don't just spring out of nowhere. They spring out of his head .. slowly.

my favourite waaaas ... the little angry one, he was ... 14th?

I used to over think ICO too, so don't feel bad. Unless you should. I do over think everything. Sometimes even tacos. Imagine that! No, wait don't. Imagine a fat man rubbing against you when it's cold outside. Ew! D= Don't imagine that either.

:cry: Dammit GG! :|

Yeah, the 14th was the little angry one. And the... 10th? Or 11th? (the first little angry one was just annoying as hell. :x And it freaked out when I went in the lake. xD)

Oh, and does Yorda learn throughout the game, like an AI? Cause she sits down now, and doesn't freak out near the save point like she did for a long while. :|

I remember scaring the first little angry one with the fire, and then it going out, and me just saying "Oh, [censored]" in the time it took the little bugger to realize I was open and attack me XD Good times.

I don't think she learns at all, I think she's always just a pretty little tard. I think it's mainly about how you move towards the couch.

Could be wrong though

You're probably right, cause she doesn't do anything other than that... and get stuck when I climb up ladders. :| I call her and she runs around the entire room before realizing I went up.

And I like how, no matter what, bombs don't hurt me. :x

That one was great. The sand monster was better though. ;P

The worst was the flying one.

Which flying one? The second one was easy once you got on.

The one that takes ages to grab on to. And once you get on, if flips over and makes you fall, so you have to try all over again. ; /

The sand snake was the hardest, and I always felt bad for poor Argo when he got hurt =[
