Ico is a game I really thought I wouldn't like but alas it became one of my favourites. Every single thing in this game is well thought out from gameplay to story and art. I really didn't feel like there was a single moment wasted.

The story is a minimalist one. only few words have been said in the game and half of it is gibberish in Egyptian like language. Hell the two main characters don't share a common but share a very human relationship. But that doesnt hold it from being heartfelt.

The gameplay feels pretty good with animations neons ahead of its time. There's a noticeable lack of hdd, prompts, Healthbars... etc. they simply leave you alone with the game to explore and experiment.

The level design is incredible with gorgeous areas and well made puzzles. if I could compare it to any other game I would say its Prince of Persia but set somewhere in the The Orient in an ancient ruined temple.

The ending and last boss especially were unexpectedly well done. Never thought a game with barely any combat managed to make a good last boss.

Overall fantastic game the fuzz around it is well deserved, and when I played it it made me feel a kid like sense of wonder and exploration. For me personally it made me feel like I was watching a studio ghibli movie.

10/10 with badass seal of approval.

J'ai fini le jeu (je ne parlerai que de la campagne ici) globalement le meilleur gameplay pour un Halo et une des meilleures D.A forerunner, la campagne explore bien le personnage de master chief tout en essayant de gommer les imperfections lié au 5, le monde ouvert ne sied pas à Halo et ça aurai été un meilleur jeu s'ils avaient gardé la formule de base. Quant à la campagne elle manque d'ampleur notamment dû au fait que tout se passe sur l'halo zeta mais surtout qu'une grande partie des évènements précédents et de l'histoire des parias est raconté dans les livres ce qui rend leur but et ka représentation de leur danger moindre. La note du jeu sera aussi impacté par ce qu'il engendrera, l'introduction d'une nouvelle faction (les éternels)n'est pas bien vu de mon côté ayant ku la saga forerunner faire apparaître une race qui aurait soi disant été enfermé par eux sans même être mentionné une seule fois dans les livres ou codex précédent le semble tirer oar les cheveux , à voir ce qu'ils feront avec les parias et les éternels . C'est un solide 15/20 pas la meilleure campagne de bungie mais sûrement son meilleur chief (les boss sint un ajout intéressant aussi).

When you're four years old, you're the biggest dumbass on the planet. You're a big stupid poo poo head. Any other idiot could walk up and pretend to pull a quarter out of your ear, and you'll be amazed and stop cleaning your ears out of fear of losing anymore quarters coming out of them.

When we came home with Sonic & Knuckles, I was astonished at this supposed new abra kapocus-hocus kadabra bullshit that has warped time and space to allow Knuckles to appear in Sonic 2. Woah, what are you doing Knucklehead, this is Sonic's game!! Not no more! The dumbass wheels in my dumbass kid brain started turning, then they started hitting the thick mud that made up the majority of my head and began digging up dumbass ideas that only a child with no concept of how things work would think of. I could make Knuckles appear in Sonic 2, clearly that means I could make Sonic characters appear in other games too! Alright Sonic, we're playing some goddamned football! Then what do you know, I get greeted with "NO WAY!" on the TV screen and become dumbfounded and insulted.

What do you mean you don't wanna play Joe Montana Football?!? What are you? An idiot?! I thought you were cool Sonic! I'm tired of my best friend stabbing me in the back. You think I'm playing? Sonic, I'm not playing. I'm gonna rip your head off. You're supposed to be my friend!
