Or it was possibly eaten?
Chewed on a little?

Anything is possible. Regardless, I have had to consult gamefaqs just to find the controls of the game, which is the only reason I managed to pull the princess out of the big black puddle of doom. I am fascinated now. This game, she is so awesome.

I have just completed the game Ico. Admittedly I had to check the walkthroughs more than I would have liked toward the beginning because of the above-mentioned lack of booklet, but I managed to get a hang of the controls and the various puzzles fairly quickly. I have probably not enjoyed a game that much since Kingdom Hearts, and in fact this game may well be superior. Graphically, it is definitely so. My biggest complaint with the game is the lack of control over the camera's rotation, which made several scenes much tougher than they had to be but was hardly enough of a problem to keep me from playing through.

Great graphics, great gameplay, great music! I give this game a firm A+. I hope we get to see the sequel here in the States.

Seriously, this might be the first game ever where I can take you on on equal terms.

I am unsure of both of the following things:

1) That anyone I know can compete with me on any videogame that I have played

2) That this is a good thing

Anyone for a game of Streetfighter 3: Third Strike? I won't even go ken... ;p

i am unsure that you are not telling lies, but i'll be happy to show you otherwise, fool.[/i]

If I am ever in Scotland, I will play you in the 2D fighting game of your choice. Salut!

I often am in Scotland and i defy any of you to beat me at a SF2 game (or related). I've said it before, you can even pick my character. Let the ELECTRICAL games tornament begin.

There should also be a mario kart related round, this i may not win but would still enjoy it immensly.

FPS games are for jerks so they aren't part of this competition.

Will you hold a "classics" round for Amiga games?

Sensible Soccer could be squeezed in i guess. Or Speedball 2 maybe?
