As someone who has played the PS3 version before, this remake, while sometimes takes away from the visual style of the original game, is overall much more enjoyable to play due to the constant locked frame rate and better controls. I still enjoy this version’s take on a more realistic world as well, and sometimes it brings beauty that we couldn’t really grasp in the original game. I absolutely love SotC to death, thanks to its wonderful simple but great story, its minimalistic but mysterious world, and the powerful yet satisfying bosses. While I will say ICO is my favorite of the trilogy, SotC is a super close second and still a must play for anyone!
