If you could play SotC on the PS2, you can definitely play this.

 

[Acquiescence]

Lol I cancelled my amazon.de Steelbook because I'm busy playing FFXV and now I got my shipment confirmation of my amazon.com collectors edition. Fuck totally forgot about it.

I'm not even mad.

It's the workings of a higher power dude.

Pretty magical so far. Great atmosphere and looks beautiful in HDR. The controls and camera are not great but the level design seems to be top notch.

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

Maybe 20-30%. The game is very lengthy.

How far in am I if

Spoiler

trico just went for his first swim/dive?

and yea post above, magical is the best way to describe the game so far. Controls par camera are fine once you adjust to view matrix inputs, controlling trico is excellent, there's little touches that aren't explained though .

 

[wild wild rice]

Played about an hour last night. The Ueda magic is real.

 

[Appollowexx]

So I gotta know, how is the soundtrack. Is it as memorable and varied as ICO / SOTC?

I like what I've heard from the trailers, reminds me a bit of a Ghibli OST.

The level design is incredibly good. You could make a Souls out of this.

I think that's still pretty early if I'm remembering right.

so much for that game you never will forget... ;o)

he is early in the game.. something like 25% in...

 

[Blinck]

I'm gonna give in and buy it...SoTC is my all time favorite game just behind Bloodborne..

I'm on standard PS4 and I'm sensitive to framerate...but fuck it. I'll be praying for a patch although deep down I know it probably isn't coming

Wow, hope it keeps this up, this is incredible so far .

 

[bababoooey]

so as far as trophy hunting goes, does anyone know if the game counts pause time into the "complete the game in x hours" trophy?

the game is great btw. can't believe i'm actually playing it haha

 

[Kyoufu]

How does the save system work? I want to take a break but I have no idea where it'll put me if I quit.

lol I'm taking a break and didn't even put it on rest mode , cause of this.

 

[Shin-Ra]

Friday release in the UK, I'm jealous of everyone playing today!

Its pretty good at starting you where you stopped. As long as its not like mid set piece haha

 

[Booker.DeWitt]

anybody received their codes from BB for the soundtrack and the ps4 theme? how awesome it is? I am getting my copy lunch time.

 

[rhino4evr]

Wtf....Amazon says "game will ship in 1-2 months?"

Has it sold out?

 

[Sami+]

Lmao whoops, forgot I had both the normal and limited editions preordered on Amazon. Gotta return the former now at a $5 deficit. Oh well.

 

[HStallion]

Wtf....Amazon says "game will ship in 1-2 months?"

One last delay for good old times sake.

 

[LastMinuteHero]

Hope that #6 on Amazon's best sellers bodes well for the game

 

[Ozorov]

 

[hydruxo]

The level design is incredibly good. You could make a Souls out of this.



I think that's still pretty early if I'm remembering right.

I was thinking that last night when I was watching a stream. The level design reminds me of Bloodborne in some ways.

 

[Vaga]

Courier just left after dropping this, what a time to be alive

 

[More_Badass]

Full circle. Dark Souls' level design was so clearly influenced by Ico.

 

[Kyoufu]

I hope everyone that plays this game knows how to pronounce Trico.

It's Tree-ko

Not Try-ko

Understood? Great.

 

[Adryuu]

I finished the game last night at 5:30 AM. I just wanna send a gaf-bro hug to all who are about to play, or just finished, or whatever. Especially those who live their daily lives along some animal companion

Fucking love the fact that this thing even exists. Even if I've been quite mad at Ueda for some stupid reason (lol).

I already miss both the boy and Trico as if I had just finished some awesome novel, even if they barely speak.

I hope everyone that plays this game knows how to pronounce Trico.

Toooricooooooooooooooooooooo!!

 

[Bunta]

Wtf....Amazon says "game will ship in 1-2 months?"

I ordered it yesterday and had a shipping estimate of next Monday. I emailed them asking what the deal was, they claimed it was a "popular item" but bumped my shipping to one-day, so now I'll have it tomorrow.

 

[LastMinuteHero]

Courier just left after dropping this, what a time to be alive

That looks nice

 

[Symphonia]

I can't wait to finally play this game. I've waited so long for it.

 

[HIGH DEF JEFF]

Even though i canceled this crap i still got an email from amazon with some pre-order stuff. A soundtrack and theme. Redeemed them...who designs these themes? The folder bar cuts right through the middle of the image, right through the dragons head and body. All you really get to see is a cliff on the bottom of the screen.

 

[Acquiescence]

Fun fact, とりこ (Toriko) means prisoner in Japanese. Just in case y'all didn't know that.

 

[Guymelef]

So for people who beat the game, How many more hours left if I'm when...:

Spoiler

The second time Trico devours you and you see the sequence about how he captured you, etc...

 

[Gaz_RB]

Played through the first few minutes before work this morning.

It's finally here.

 

[-Horizon-]

Still hasn't shipped lol

 

[HStallion]

So I'm probably leaving work early today to pick up this game and playing for as long as I can.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

I hope everyone that plays this game knows how to pronounce Trico.

It's Tree-ko

Not Try-ko

Understood? Great.

God dammit. And I still say EYE-co even after learning it's E-co years ago.

 

[Vaga]

That looks nice

It really is, it's in the top 5 collector's editions I own. Added more pics in the pick-up thread.

 

[Salaadin]

Just got spoiled by accidentally tapping on a spoiler tag in here. I'm out.
See you all after I beat it.

Ups is out for delivery!!

That trico model is really well made dude. Excuse my fail quote in the pickup thread

[WGMBY]

Just picked up my copy. Now I only have to get through a full day of work before I can play it.

 

[Ratrat]

Played for a few hours....

Toriko is adorable. The boys animations are really great too. So much personality. But oh, god the camera is making me sick!

 

[b0bbyJ03]

yo the impressions on this thread are amazing. seems like this game is a work of art. I've seen very few threads as positive as this one and it seems that the game has some technical issues yet people are willing to overlook them due to how beautiful the game is. That's rare around these parts. lol. Can't wait to pick this up. It wasn't even on my radar due to the length of development. Thought there was no way they could put it all together. Glad I was wrong

 

[silva1991]

Understood? Great.

Some people actually say " Try-ko" ?

At least it's not as bad as pronouncing ICO "I-C-O"

A lot of people. Digital Foundry kept saying Try-co so I had to close the video. I couldn't take it anymore!

 

[Usobuko]

Seeing Y2k in this thread is abit surreal.

Is the dynamic theme a gif or real time?

 

[Dad]

I'm doubting Amazon's ability to get this here today. It's been preparing to ship for days now

 

[HStallion]

Why?

He was supposed to commit seppuku if the game actually released.
