While I thought ico was good, I sort of dislike shadow of the colossus. The colossi were very pretty and well designed, but I felt like a damn bastard for stabbing them so.(like at the end of the movie Avatar how I felt like a bad person for being a human being, I hate media that portrays that feeling, even if it wasn't intentional). The controls were not as fluid as I had expected out of a ps2 game released as late also.

I did hear that the makers felt that the game was not finished appropriatly, and they were planning on rereleasing it, or remaking it, or something along those lines.

I've never played Shadow Of The Colossus and I'm not sure I want to now ! I always thought it was a nice looking game though. Maybe I'll wait for that remake.

Evil Twin is an excellent little game, the atmosphere is very erie and dark, very macabre, the setting is wonderful though, its a place called "Undabed" and it certainly fits with that name, all the textures appear to be materials such as the kinds of things you'd expect to find under your bed, buttons, pins, cloth, pillow case, all that sort of stuff. I got a long way into it before I started getting problems with it, the controls can sometimes be a problem as you can often run to an edge and hit jump and cyprien may not respond in time. And there are some graphical glitches though they don't ruin the game, some glaring ones are litterally holes in the background or the floor, where you can see clearly that polygons should be there but its an empty space. I only saw this once or twice though. Other than that it is a wonderful edition.

another title that got released in the uk via BIG BEN entertainment are Heavy Metal Geomatrix and Cannon Spike, both relatively short and arcadey but graphically excellent and certainly entertaining. Though nothing like Evil Twin though obviously.

If you like Rayman for example but longed for something darker you will probably love Cyprien
