Another tip is that if you see a hawk or fish you can grab them and go for a ride

And what about a tortoise? I've found one of those.

That would be a slow ride

I just got these on PS2 instead, due to the HD pack coming out the prices of the originals have gone down a fair bit. Got the original Ico and Shadow of the Colossus in the cardboard boxes, with all art cards for £26.

Bizarre. The games are better in every way on PS3.

I have to say it's been nice to play through Shadow again, I'm gonna start it again straight away in hard mode so I can get the white horse.

Still one of the best games ever made.

I will no doubt end up getting the HD set at some point, but I have wanted the PS2 versions for ages, and they are finally going for a decent price! (Well not in PS2 terms when most games are £3 but you know what I mean)

LOL, fair enough.

Just got it and dam is it good. Yes you can tell its old but they have done a great job polishing and presenting it. If you never liked it the 1st time round don't bother to get it. The first time you try to climb a colosso is truly up there with gaming great moments. I forgot how good the music was, always matching what is happening on screen.

I didn't realise this game was out now. :eek:

My ps3 has been turned on once since online went down.

Gah. So close but no cigar. Can't do the last colossus. Tried 10 times now and I feel like weeping.

Just wait until you do him in time attack mode on the hard difficulty

Not gonna happen, sunshine. Abandoning that now to play ICO and then it's getting sold. Not giving myself stress over a damn game I've already seen the ending to.

Not seen this in HMV yet, any reason for that? They just don't have it on the shelves!

£30 is probably more than I'd like to pay at the moment, shall wait til it drops a tad

RedDanDoc · 4 Oct 2011 at 17:15

Phew just completed it. That last one was a major pain in the butt!

A couple of places online have it at £25. Even so, £30 is still more than worth it for those two games.

This is now £17.99 for one day only if you fancy PLAYing it.

MoNkeE · 31 Oct 2011 at 14:11

From where?

Edit: Wait, you probably can't say xD I'll search!

Edit2: Hmm, followed your hint, and it's still £27.99

Expired now I'm afraid, they've put the price back up. Found the deal on hotukdeals.

Just purchased both for £19.99 on PSN

Downloading ICO now, looking forward to playing it tomorrow....
