AWESOME! I did the impossible, finding a glitch before you! I feel so honored!
Pelagia, sounds like an alergy medicine
Also, where does it tell you the names, that glowey dude only gives you crypic messages about your opponent, never their real names

The names are online, and apparently came from a Japanese magazine that was given to people who pre-ordered the game.
No one questioned the names, so they unofficially became canon. Just like Loki the Hawk and Pal the Squirrel. Hahahaha.

Loki is a large hawk that lives in a giant tree, and some say that he is the hawk in the opening and ending cutscenes. Though there is no way to prove it.  There are other hawks like Loki, named Nezeri and Ares, though people give these last two different names. Loki is the only name universally accepted. Don't know why. And the squirrel only appeared in the PAL and Japanese versions of the game, hence the name. |

Hahahaha, people are so dumb. I'm kinda stunned that people are so stupid. I'm talking about the viral videos that Sony released to promote sales of SotC, and some people believe the videos are proof of UFOs and prehistoric beasts. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yl9Ha7xHVC8"Regardless of what it is, it definitely isn't fake. I don't know why people keep saying things are fake when they look legitimately real; but oh well, opinions are opinions. But regardless, if it IS real (I hope it is), then it seems to be very significant. It looks more like a large stone carving/statue to me. " "you never know if this is real or not because their were giants at one point in history. but who would say that is the question and are they real from biblical and ancient texts. lol cant rule out the possibility." www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TPYhZJqydowww.youtube.com/watch?v=FdkHsvncBpk"The Giant is a Nephilim. The bible talks about them. " It's fun to see how long it went on and how big the hoax got: teamico.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_of_the_Colossus_viral_marketing_campaign |

Wow, thats awesome! Ha ha ha hah ah a
Stuff like this makes you glad people are dumbasses sometimes, this wouldn't exist without the jackasses who fell for it, thats just amazing.
Though it doesn't seem to directly advertise the product well

No, it didn't. But I bet it was hilarious to people back when the event started who knew it was a hoax.
Ueda probably would've preferred a more subdued ad.

Yeah, I can imagine it would be
Yeah, it's true, he probably would have prefered something a little more artistic

Oh my god.
Pichubro, you will not beileve my day today
I went to the game store today, and a certain game came into my possesion, wanna guess what it is? I'll give you a hint, it was made by Fumito Ueda and released in 2001, and only 200,000 copies or so exist in the US, and it cost me a fortune.

Yay! I hope it works on your PS2.  |

Heh, thats the first thing I tested, and it does, and it is greatness. I'm at the first save point with Yorda right now
I'm gonna wait to play it now until after the competition and after I finish SotC, but when I finish, it will be the greatest thing ever.

I'm so glad it worked for you. I can't describe my complete sorrow when my PS2 refused to read the disk. Hopefully I'll get to play it someday, since Ueda is thinking about re-releasing ICO and SotC on the PS3. |

Post by Mario the black knight on Mar 15, 2010 21:57:05 GMT -5
Yeah, I feel bad to you... That sucks so much
Yeah, I hope he does that, people deserve to see the greatness that is ICO, not only that, it would only look even greater in full HD. Any maybe they'll even add some of the international elements to this version too
Maybe someday you can play my copy if all else fails.

It wasn't the disk that was the problem, it was the PS2 itself.

But God of War 1 and 2 came out on PS3 before God of War 3 though, so you never know

Post by pichubro on Mar 16, 2010 22:10:47 GMT -5
God of War 3 is not a completely different game from its prequels though. The developers just took basically the same game, made the graphics prettier, made new cut scenes, and changed the battle system slightly. What took so long was more the AI system and the jump from a new console. Ueda is never satisfied with his finished projects anyway, so he'll probably work on TLG until a week before its release if he could. Hahaha Though if we're going to get a re-release of ICO and SotC, the American editions better not have cuts on them like the PS2 games do now. That would suck. |

Yeah, thats true
Thats good though, thats why he's one of the greatest
Yeah, I hope so too, I hope we get all kinds of extras like the PAL and japanese versions did, though with our luck, we'll get stuff, but they'll still somehow get new stuff.

I'm not sure what else they could add in the games though.  The PAL version of ICO had the extra sword and stuff, and the American version SotC still kept the extra weapons and unlockable items though who knows why the American version had to delete the squirrel from the last cutscene (seriously, it makes no sense)... It's a mixed bowl. |
