Oh yeah, by the way, both games clearly didn't fully meet demand: I had a heck of a time finding ICO in NYC, and this was over two years ago. I bought 3 copies of SoTC once it went down in price because of this, though the greatest hits definitely helped to meet continuing demand for that game...  even so, the value of SoTC on the used market has held a lot higher than most games.



And good luck finding ICO new -- in the past few years the only place I've seen it has been ebay for 80 bucks or more and amazon for some insane amount. Personally I got my copy from used one of the twenty or so gamestops in the city, and even that was hard to find. So I'm sure the game could have sold some more with another release, and people like me wouldn't be depending upon the used market.

 The J man could care less for others opinion on his post.

ICO is by far the worst acclaimed game he has ever played. The J man could think of games that got 50's that were more fun than it.

^^Did these other games by any chance contain... kung fu?

Because internet is the only place where these two games are considered good and worth the price.

SoTC had more than enough "kung-fu" but ICO......

It's because most PS2 owners were casuals.

LOL,...........I REALLY needed that...thankx

In that case........aahh......nevermind

To me, SOTC is not that great. I hate the controls in that game. I reached the 4th colossi and then I gave up.

But I like ICO a lot.

Both of these two games are niche titles. Too artsy. Just like Okami.
