![]() That all changed a little earlier this year when I went to E3 2015, and came away pretty much breathless with the (very long-awaited) re-reveal of The Last Guardian at Sony's E3 press conference this past June. Where Shadow of the Colossus drew me in with its heartbreaking and cryptic story, I was aware that Ico provided a similar experience (along with providing some connective threads between both games) and had always had it high on my backlog to play, though distractions and more kept me away from it for a time. I had previously played Shadow of the Colossus several times before finally mustering the courage to dive into Ico: Shadow still rank high as one of my all-time favorite games, and with plenty of good reason. I wound up buying Ico twice before eventually finishing it: my first copy coming from PAX East 2011 at a used game seller on the show floor (for $40, which at the time was a steal for the hard-to-find title on PS2), before eventually settling with The Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection on PS3, providing HD remasters of both titles in one collection. Having had an interest in the game for a better part of a decade, it took me a while to actually track down and find a copy of the game, as by that point GameStop began phasing out purchasing and selling PS2-era titles. Originally released for the PS2 in 2001, Ico was the debut project of developer Fumito Ueda as a game director, and while the game has received scores of critical praise and admiration in the years since its debut, for quite some time the game was fairly hard to come by.
