No, few knew about it. It recieved zero commercials when I was younger.

He meant: "There are few other games like it"

Oh. Hah

I disagree, I think Team ICO's games are very overrated and that's coming from someone who desperately tried to enjoy them. I hated ICO after really trying to give it a chance with 4+ hours of my time before I quit and I only fought two Colossi in SotC before I got bored and quit that game.

I love art, painting, drawing and sculpting is a hobby of mine and I have studied art for years, have been to every art museum in London numerous of times and I don't consider Team ICO's games artistic in the slightest, they're incredibly bland and soulless visually and I feel the games are pretentious. The gameplay is horrendous in both games (ICO more so) and there's no story in either game at all. I know the games have a little group of fans that love them and I'm glad they disagree with me, I actually wish I could love every game I play but I just don't appreciate these games at all.

Just goes to show a masterpiece to one person can be a complete and utter turd to another person.

The boss battles are epic, and so is the ending.

@JustThatGamer
Two collosi in SOTC is so not enough to judge the game on. I cant get myself to play Ico because im not fond of it. But I wont call it shit because I just have only played it for an hour. The first two collosi of SOTC are like tutorials almost. The bad ass ones later on are like actual puzzles and coming from someone who isnt fond of puzzles, the way SOTC incorporates them with that scale is amazing.
