Ico: Prima's Official Strategy Guide

Summary: This is nothing less than a masterpiece
Review: As far as games go, I really feel that lately gaming has been in a slump. It has been more than a year since I have purchased a game, computer or PS2, and have been truly enthralled.
Ico has changed all that. By incorporating a beautiful tale, into a game that has incredible graphics, and near perfect gameplay Ico has accomplished something great. Ico makes you actually feel like you are living out some sort of childhood dream. Now some would probably say that this is just a game... well yes it is, but Ico is more. Think about the greatest book you have ever read. Now think about how emotional you would get when the characters were in danger or conflicted... now imagine that you are controlling the main character, and its your job to ensure the heroin's safety. Now imagine that the heroin actually reacts to you... its unbeleivable, but Ico accomplishes this.
Previous reviews have mentioned that Ico is short, well if you are looking for FF.. it is not. Its more like an interactive movie.
Ico is by far one of the most brilliant games ever made.
I agree that it is hard to justify spending the amount of money required for a game that might keep you busy for a week, but I say that if you want to see more games of this quality, and from a company that is obviously interested in providing top notch products I say spend the money.

Summary: Don't ruin the game
Review: Ico is a beautifully crafted puzzle game that lasts about 7-8 hours, with no replay value. The maps are not hard, and "dying" only happens if you make very careless errors. If you use this guide to run through the game, you'll only ruin the fun of the game, which is the puzzles. Relax. Take your time. Figure it out for yourself. Enjoy the visuals, they're some of the best on the PS2. If you really, really have to, consult an online guide.

Summary: Just fine
Review: The game is one of the best I've played, I consider the guide is not as good as the game, it lacks a lot of info you may need while playing the game, Don't waste your money on this guide
