And I agree, a game with bad music is almost always unplayable.

Yeah sorry im a little new to the forums,

I played a lot of rpgs but my absolute favorite is a ps1 classic, Legends of the dragoons. I also remember playing .hack// i didn't like it too much. Its one of those games where it helps 2 be a fan of the series.
BTW does anyone have a psn?

Anyone played Ico? I can't even remember.. but I think someone replied saying they have. Apparently it's vaguely related to SoTC.

Yeah, from the outside.
From inside though, I think you can go up to the bridge your character is riding across in the beginning of the game, I don't remember if you have to have beaten the game or something to be able to access it.

Ico is supposed to be vaguely related to SoTC (notably, with SoTC's ending), but I haven't played it.

Also, +1 to God of War. Better value than SoTC, imo.

Yes, there are two places to start climbing the Shrine. There is one on the bright side which doesn't take you anywhere, and the other is on the other side (dark side) which has pillars near it. You start climbing the vines and just work your way up.

But you need A LOT of stamina for it, or you will die. Beat the game atleast 4 times before trying.

Also, once you beat the game once, time trial is unlocked. Just go up to the statues inside the Shrine and "use" them. You can then fight each one in time attack mode. Every 3 Colossi you beat in the right time, you unlock a special weapon of some kind.

If you can beat all the Colossi within the time limit, you unlock the sword from Ico which 1-hit kills every Colossi. Might be kind of hard to get, but makes for an easy game.

Edit: Also, if you really like the game, try looking up some of the tech demos for it on youtube. They're pretty awesome.

Edit2: If you want the sword that insta-kills the Colossi, you MUST play the time attack mode under the Hard difficulty. Normal and Hard will unlock different stuff...

Spoiler for Things to unlock when playing Time Attack:

Destroy All Humans and the sequels. Great fun, it's like GTA only you're an alien.

Graffiti Kingdom and Magic Pengel are also really fun.

Thanks for the info slayer! Tho concept of time attack mode makes me nervous.. I hate time limits sdfgsdfhjsf.

GoW is awesome, btw, just started playing that as well. I'm not really into video games centered on blood and gore and violence, but this one's great.

Hehe.
