Line 20:
** Some players think that the [[Escort Mission]] aspect of the game is no better implemented and just as annoying as in any other title, significantly damaging a potentially quite effective platforming game.
** The camera system can be outright nauseating and frustrating for players, and most of the time it doesn't really help you, either. It also makes looking at something distant a total pain, since you can't hold the camera steady with a joystick, and releasing the joystick will only cause it to jerk back towards its predetermined angle. At times, it also doesn't account for obstacles blocking you from the camera angle's line of sight.
* [[That One Achievement]]: There's a trophy in the PS3 version that requires clearing the game in under 2 hours. It can be done with practice, but the annoying part comes from the fact that the timer does not stop until the events on the beach after the credits and the timer continues to run ''during the credits''. Meaning you have to beat the final boss in about 1:45-1:50 in order to make it.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: The ending sequence.
* [[Uncanny Valley]]:
** Ico in the game's concept video looks weirdly human.
** The Queen's lips don't seem to match her words.
* [[What an Idiot!]]: There is no doubt at all, that Ico is [[Guile Hero|one resourceful little kid]]. But during the scene with the chandelier, he demonstrates intelligence that is [[Sarcasm Mode|truly astounding]]
 
Line 44 ⟶ 47:
 
** For that matter. ''Who in the (BEEP!) designed that (BEEP!)ing castle?!'' '''''Seriously!''''' ''What kind of retarded (BEEP!)ing moron designs a castle where you have to swing on a chain hanging precariously over a five hundred (BEEP!)ing metre drop,'' '''''just''''' ''so you can open the'' '''''FRONT (BEEP!)ING DOOR!!!!''''' Now I know that sometimes you have to scale sheer walls because the bridge you would normally use has crumbled away. But there are other times when you realise that the castle has actually been ''designed'' that way. ''''''WHAT THE HELL!!!!'''''
*** To be fair, if you could open the front door with a button, it wouldn't be a jail, wouldn't it. I mean, you're not ''supposed'' to get out of there.
*** And the person who runs said prison seems to have no need to obey gravity, same for much of her servants. They can do as they please, so making the doors near impossible to open seems logical.
