While revamping their job listing website, Team Ico dropped the bomb: nothing less than the first image of Ico 3. The wait begins...

We really worked hard on that one, not just on the video itself, but also on push-ups, ski, running and even a very humiliating belly dance sequence... Enjoy !

If this is truly a sequel to ICO, then I now HAVE TO GET A PS3. because there is no way that I'm playing this on my room mates Ps3.
I "need" to play this on my TV.

Shadow of the colossus was really the precursor to ICO. It marked the beginning of the horned children.

thought they said Shadow of the Colossus wasnt a sequel, or prequel to Ico, so how can they name this Ico 3?
o well, i still gotta agree this game alone will sell me a PS3.

They weren't direct prequels, but they exist within the same universe so to speak.

ico 3 is probably just a placeholder name, like SotC being called ico 2 before getting the official name

I think people are crazy to say this game makes them want to get a ps3, sure MGS4 or FF or even GOW3, but ico making people buy a ps3? lol that sure is a lie.
I can believe people wanting to get it with their ps3, but don't believe this is the game that would solely push someone to get a ps3
I can see gamers buying mgs4 or ff, but ico seems like a game only certain would buy others even rent.. you can't say people would rent out a ff or mgs4

for a LOT of people including myself, ico and shadow of the colossus where the 2 high points of the ps2's game library. even when the likes of MGS2/3 and FF10/12 etc where on the console as well.
the ico team seem to do what few other people have (bar maybe clover studio's) they create some of the only games i consider "pure"....they have amazing creative minds and nothing seems to get in the way of that.
dev commenteries/interviews always state how there is a constant war and compromise between the designers and the artists, one side want to make a game work, the other wants to make it match their creative vision. the ico team dont seem to compromise on that vision in the slightest. and it shows.

I can definitely say people would rent a MGS and a FF game. I'm pretty sure Gamefly can too.

I haven't played Ico or Shadow of the Colossus, but I have seen how SOTC is, and it looks amazing.
The scale, the visuals of the colossus punding to take you down, the art, the story and amazing music to keeps everything together....etc.
I know that the next Ico title, I am getting it, especially when its next-gen.
One thing I hope is that I hope there is big ass bosses like SOTC and not like typical looking like Ico.
I didn't even know that SOTC and Ico had any connections until I found out the time was was SOTC comes first and then Ico and now Ico 3.
Anyway, I will keep a sharp eye on the title.
If it is gonna be as good as SOTC turned out, I guess its another reason to own a PS3 I guess.
Maybe another Okami for PS3 would be nice as well, although I havent played it, it looks very cool.
PS. About the title, I hope its not Ico 3, I hope as many say a placeholder, until they come up with a cool name like "Shadow of the Colossus".
By the way you guys think the image is real-time? The textures looks great then :)
I really hope they take all the power PS3 got with its visuals combining with its scale of view.
Games like Lair, Heavenly Sword and Ratchet & Clank for PS3 showed great scale, I hope this game takes it cross the line.

Ico is still one of the most amazing gaming experiences I have ever had. I am seriously looking forward to this.

No offense, but I found SOTC too easy and simply a vehicle for some large goliath creatures
