Yes indeed, its excellent, I have purchased and played this one several times. The game is not a direct sequel to Ico, but it takes place in another part of the same world. The world itself is an enomous outdoor environment, that is beautifully crafted( and fully streaming) with lots of diverse areas to explore. The game does away with a lot of the adventure conventions . The objective is seek out and slay 16 colussi, in essence the game is made up of "boss" battles. These things are wonderfully animated and are the stars of the game. Beating the first few is a straightforward task but as the game progresses the monsters require more sophisticated startegy to kill, in essence becoming living puzzles, a very cool idea and well executed. Like Ico there is a certain beautiful starkness to it all. The last battle is paticularly dramatic. The only weakness is that the controls can get a bit tricky in spots, but nothing off putting If you want to know more about this title your are welcome to PM me with any questions. In short definately more than worth your 20 bucks worth!
