Two Timeless Classics

ICO and Shadow of the Colossus came like lightning out of a clear sky. Often used as examples of “video games as art”, they are also just stunning adventures in general. While ICO plays more like a modern adventure game (with a visual aesthetic that still holds up) Colossus is like an epic journey into the unknown. The less you know the better, but even knowing the basics can’t spoil how singular and stunning an experience these games are.
Both games showcase Fumito Ueda’s trademark cinematic minimalist style, and contain many tiny mysteries hidden beneath the main story.
There of course is a new remake of Colossus, which is quite good, but this HD version of the original still feels the more definitive game.
All in all this package is a must own for most who enjoy games, especially those into adventure and with an eye toward the artistic.
Also bonus, you get a few short videos of the team talking about the making of the games AND the making of The Last Guardian (albeit this was when that game was still set for a PS3 release).

Better on PS2

The PS2 versions of these two classics are far superior than the PS3 or PS4 versions.
The PS3 and 4 versions are Bluepoint games not Team ICO games. The extras make this purchase worth while though.Read full review

Great atmosphere of the game

The game has such great vibe that it makes it unique. Graphics are good (have to be remembered that it was remastered from ps2 original version) and each colossus is different in way of defeating it, like it. So, in short, I recommend it to all!Read full review

The case is in good quality and the disc itself is in working order. The game itself is a masterpiece of course. I would have preferred the store stickers to have been removed from the case beforehand but it's not a big deal to remove them. Read full review

Two Classes

ICO and Shadow of the Colossus are great games to add to the library. The creators also made The Last Guardian and Bluepoint Studios did a full remake of Shadow of the Colossus. They are well loved.

Ostensibly the game quality is in near perfect condition, I haven’t played it yet but it’s my one my girlfriends favorite games so it’ll be a nice anniversary present either way.

Old game that still thrills

My neice has enjoyed and worked to defeat the monsters one by one. The levels are difficult and challenging for her. She is still working to beat the game...

Controls Challenge

I picked up this game to get ready for the Last Guardian and i'm glad i did. Ico was very challenging to get around the controls but it sure taught me well of the next ones. Shadow of the Colossus was an amazing experience and it only made me regret all this time it took me to play it. Totally recommending this bundle to anyone who has even a little patience to get around the handling.. you will be rewarded by it.Read full review

Colossal acheivement

They did a good job of remastering the old games, keep in mind they're still PS2 games, but they look nice and play fine.
