In this
interview with Wired, Fumito Ueda (the creative mind behind ICO and Shadow of the Colossus)
talks about the difference between ICO and "conventional" video games. It seems Ueda has tried to
distance the product from the negative connotations of the term "video games"; whether that was successfully
accomplished rests in the opinions of those who view games negatively.The interview also talks about some of the design decisions behind Shadow of the Colossus--it's an interesting insight into Ueda's creative processes.
Update: Warning, the article contains spoilers for Shadow of the Colossus.
