Maybe it’s a game that we didn’t hear of until years after its initial release, maybe it’s just that we were busy at the time in our lives when the game released, or maybe we just weren’t interested. In any event, all gamers have games that they’re a bit ashamed to have never played, and I’m no different. List of Shame is a short series of articles in which I plan to cover the games on my own personal List of Shame.

The first one is Ico, the 2001 Playstation 2 game that became its creators’ name. Team Ico later released Shadow of the Colossus, and has created the forthcoming The Last Guardian, a game to which I’m very much looking forward. But I’ve never played Ico.

I plan to remedy this very soon when the Ico/Shadow of the Colossus HD Collection is released this Spring. I’d have bought the game even if it were only Shadow of the Colossus HD, because I absolutely loved that game, and the notion of picking up trophies as I play sounds like fun. The fact that it comes with Ico, which I’ve never played, seals the deal. I’m still waiting for the release date to be announced.
