Shadow of the Colossus 21st Anniversary. I've only known this game for around 5 years, but it still feels nostalgic thinking about it. The 'wander' in my profile name is (kinda) from the game protagonist. It's nice having some peak art to look up to (even though I'm still far from it).

Game 23/26: Shadow of the Colossus (PS3) Slightly strange to go back to this, when I completed the PS4 remake only a short while ago, but it still felt like time well-spent: The older version is a colder, lonelier experience, and makes the depths of Wander‘s obsession even more palpable.

AOTW Diary: Ico I wasn't sure what I'd think of Ico, but wow wow wow I really loved my time so far with it. Jank, but the jank kinda elevates it in a weird way? a la SH2? The only game I've played that stirred the same something in me that Ghibli movies do, Zeldas included. youtu.be/8RMDBqQDtT8

18: Theme That Calms You Down- Heal from Ico. Maybe the chillest music in existence. If you're stressed, if you're anxious, give this a listen and close your eyes.

ico is a cozy game

ICO Trivia #3: As first uncovered by dark0ssx in a YouTube video now 15 years old: Activating the 'Skeleton' feature of ICO's Debug Menu reveals a developer in-joke. An invisible wireframe office fan was placed in each map to help display the direction and speed of the wind. youtu.be/Sf0vlvAhe_s&...

Shadow of the Colossus. I was torn between wanting to work with computers or be a storyteller, and it was the game that made me realize I could do both.

Estoy en vivo. Tenia ganas de jugar algo piola y me acordé de ICO. Un jueguito que jugué muy poco, pero que me estaba gustando. Twitch.tv/Mr_Yggdra

Inks on the Ico piece! I look forward to replaying Ico again someday and exploring the ruins with Yorda!

I haven't played Shadow of the Colossus in 4+ years but I still have dreams about it pretty often That game really captivates my imagination with the mysteriously empty world, that's always the thing that my dreams about it emphasise

ICOが今年で25周年らしく、懐かしくなって久しぶりに遊んだ。 PS2もまだ生きてて安心しました。

This art is already incredible, but it also directly parallels the Tribune's earlier Zelda cover, done by the same artist. bsky.app/profile/game...

What I was up to in #AnimalCrossing Wild World on #NintendoDS in December 2005: #ICO outfit, street art of The Prince from #Katamari, and lots of nerdy custom pattern designs

Awhile back I realized I'd never drawn anything from Ico, one of the most wonderful PS2 games ever. Its one of those little worlds you just get lost in!

Happy 21th Anniversary, Shadow of the Colossus (ワンダと巨像) 🐎 "最後の一撃は、せつない" ("The final strike will be heartbreaking")

All the illustrations were reprinted for ICO's PS3 remaster. Globally, the remaster was always packaged as a collection with Shadow of the Colossus, but in Japan, you could buy ICO's remaster in isolation, and it had the same manual contents. Pictures originally taken by @pixelhunted.bsky.social

Day 18: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RMD... I think there is a reason everyone who played this game back when became a game dev. Absolutely adore the bouncy synth just going off wandering having fun, very whimsical very good.

the visuals of shadow of the colossus are still so fascinating and breathtaking. still have never watched or played anything that made me feel quite like SoC does

there is a kind of weird masochistic thing I love with story telling when something has a thought-through history and a major thing has happened with evidence all over the place, but you are never told outright. feeling like narrative clarity is at your finger tips but never being able to reach it
