Ico is my favourite game, certainly on the PS2, maybe of all time. I feel i didn't so much defeat it, as unfold it. The ambience, the texture, the minimalism, the balance between the characters, i love everything about it. I found myself just standing and admiring each place, or running and jumping about for the playful pleasure of it - such non-goal-oriented activities tell me i'm becoming immersed, that my psyche has been persuaded; this is a reality.
