When did Team Ico ever made a platformer? I think I missed that game. It was probably released while I was wasting precious lifetime playing Ico.

ZING!

I blame Legacy of Kain / 3D Prince of Persia, myself. They took the platformer label and applied it to something more fitting of the description "struggle to scale a ziggurat then swear like a soldier when you miss a jump or QTE and must waste another half an hour just to get back to where you made a mistake". But "Platformer" rolls off the tongue better.


Ico wishes it could be compared with 3D Prince of Persia. The platforming elements of PoP are oh-so-much-fun.

Both games share a pretty dull and boring combat though, too bad. But Prince of Persia doesn't have a nonsensical/pointless excuse for a plot, so there you go.
