You can play Ico/SotC HD via PS Now. Just use the 14 day trial. That's how I played SotC. Took some getting used to having never played Ico, but ended up loving it. I imagine back in the day it was an incredible experience. It played very nicely via the interwebs too!

Stone-cold masterpiece. I think it'll be more widely recognised as being a classic as time passes.

It's only about 8 hours long you should have played a couple more and traded it in :wink:

A great game that's unfortunately marred by technical issues.
Good find none-the-less.

HEAT - just looks like a fab game to me, will never find time for playing it though. Did it make the short list on the *cough* Selected *cough* Games Of The Year Awards?

It was EDGE's game of the year. I finished playing it through at the weekend. I started playing it through again a second time straight after to go for the platinum. It's an outstanding achievement that you may only recognise if games are more to you than just:
Buy PlayStation > Load Call of Duty > Play For An Hour > Go To Pub
..and instead are a passion where you truly know what they're capable of. You'll feel genuine attachment to Trico. Plus there's a moment of storytelling towards the end which is so subtle, and lasts for only a few seconds, but it really is quite dark and changes how you view a lot of what you've been doing throughout the game.
The minor technical issues don't matter. If you loved ICO (which I did) then buy this. You absolutely won't regret it.

if people liked Ico and Shadow they'd probably still like this. Could me a couple of hours to get into it and start enjoying it though.
