I may have confessedto not being a fanof Team ICO’s games, but that doesn’t mean I can’t celebrate its success. TheICO & Shadow of the Colossus Collectionhas topped the multiplatform sales chart in North America and Japan. Nowthat’sencouraging!
Team ICO’s collection actually managed to knockGears of War 3from the top of the chart, shunting it to second place. When you consider that neitherICOnorShadow of the Colossuswere particularly successful back in the PS2 era, this is pretty damn impressive.
Things like this let me know that gamers can have more varied tastes than just wanting the nextCall of Duty. We talk about original games dying and single-player titles getting forced into extinction, but then something like this happens and you can’t help feeling that things are going to be okay. At least for a while.
