I got hands on ICO

There is a game called ICO released in 2002 for Playstation 2. Be it the game reviews, or gaming forum posts all of them praise it. Sadly this game went out of the sale soon because the publisher Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (PS2 guys them selves) stopped the production because poor sales initially! Then they have released little more considering the demand for a very limited time.

Now this game has become a rare and collectable item which every one want to buy and any unsold new games are sold at premium almost at 80 GBP and used ones also selling more than a any new game around 45 GBP at eBay. I tried for almost a year to get hold of a new copy and failed because most of them are at premium. Finally settled for second hand one and managed to win an action which the seller claims that it is a new game (un-played) with broken seal, also it is a limited edition which has special packing and some art cards. Yesterday it arrived and I had 1 hour play to see how does it feel. It certainly feels good adventure and I have to wait for 1 month to actually play it!

Sad part of current generation game consoles is that you cannot take screen shots as you on a PC. There are couple of screen shots at IGN. I always wonder what kind of techniques there guys use to take screen shot other than a digi cam.
