I played this game when the PS2 was first released back around the turn of the century...seems like a long time ago when I put it that way. The game ambiance is beautiful. The combination of CGI environment with the music and sounds are amazing. Basically, you are a boy warrior trying to help a little girl princess escape the grasps of her evil queen mother who wants to use her (the princess) to prolong her (the queen) life. While trying to escape the castle you are confronted with lots of puzzles while various evil shadow creatures attempt to pull the princess back to the queen. ICO is definitely one of those sleeper hits. But the only thing lamer than raving fanboys pointlessly sticking up for their favorite console are online price jackers. This game is one of those games where one day someone said "I love this game, I'm going to put it on eBay and further bastardize the term "rare" by putting that in the description to try and sell this game at a hugely inflated price." And you know what...it worked. Even though this game is far from being in short supply on the used games sales list, or rare, people are still willing to pay around [...] for it simply because the online retail sector says it should be so. The game is awesome and very challenging, but seriously, stop paying these people these ridiculous prices for these types of games. If people stop buying the games at these prices then eventually the prices will drop to a fair, used price. The game is not rare, so do not believe it.Get more detail about Ico.
