Easily Kojima. SotC is vasly over-rated. What we have there is a pretty stripped down game with very little variety which survives as a classic under the mantra "games are art" and "Atmosphere is greater than narrative." If that game wasn't supported by some of the best graphics and most original artstyle on the PS2...say it were on the DS, it would be a mediocre title and wouldn't be remembered by most people. The game is a paper champion. It has no real substance. It's not the type of game you want to play back through for the addictive gameplay.

...

So you missed the narrative, I feel for you. I played it many times start to end, and I keep coming back to it quite often even now that I can climb up to the secret garden.

Also, ICO. Thus, Ueda.

Yeah, I guess I missed it. I'm not an emotional guy though, so I'll live.

Let me be clear, I'm not saying the game sucks. I'm just saying the game sucks according to my personal experience. I might have been dead drunk that whole week, who knows.

Point is, opinions vary.
