If you like adventure games and are considering giving these a go, do your self a favor. They are easily two of the most amazing adventure games ever made and you won’t regret it.
For starters, the art style and architecture, (of the castle in ICO and the landscapes, ruins, and Colossus in SOTC), are mesmerizing beautiful and must be experienced. Few games will ever come close to matching the artistic excellence of these games (I consider the first Metroid Prime, Okami, and Wind Waker in a similar class)
And from a game play perspective, both games are uniquely old school in that they focus on a few simple, but brilliantly well implemented, play mechanics (something I much prefer to the more complex games where you do like 100 different things but none of them are that fun, AKA- GTA or Fable).
Seeing the concept video for their next game has got me excited. Probably have to give them another run through before its release next year.
