    From Software only sells their games by peddlers in Japan.

    Are you sure? There is ICO by itself in the 20 slot and SotC by itself at number 14.

    Should had been clear about that. It was the limited edition of ICO/ SotC.

    I guess they did end up putting them together and selling them separately, I thought they were going to only sell them separately in Japan. The 2nd slot is the collection, 14th slot if Shadow of the Colossus alone and 20th slot is ICO alone. Sorry for the confusion.

    Not bad at all since it's been plagued with bugs. Even the patch was bug ridden.

    hope they fix these bug crap for NA release...i guess we'll have to wait forr eviews because if it has crashing bugs then this game will be broken, it doesn't have an autosave feature i don't think
