Definitely Shadow of the Colossus for me, by a long distance.

I was completely mesmerised the whole way through.

I need to play SoTC one of these days... I didn't like Ico at first but it really grew on me. The combat was a little weak, but it was an excellent game otherwise :wub:

I think I got stuck and never went back to it though :(

I have not played Ico. I did not enjoy Shadow of the Colossus.

I never played Ico and I didn't get on with SotC, I just couldn't get past the awful controls and camera.

I refrain from voting.

Ico is a much tighter, 'perfect' game. But Shadow of the Colossus is breathtaking.

Both. strawberry float you.

That is your right in a democratic country - but just remember how many people died to give you that right.

Every cloud has a silver lining. Your disenchantment with SotC led to you selling it to me. Thanks to this sequence of events I was able to experience one of the best games I've ever played.

Shadow of the Colossus probably offers the better gameplay experience, but theres no doubting ICO is more effective emotionally.

I don't care how good the horse is, if you grow more attached to Agro than Yorda then theres something wrong with you.

One hell of a technical achievement on the PS2 hardware, too.
