The Last Guardian comes from the team that brought us Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, two of the most artful action-puzzle adventure games yet made. As in Ico, the game involves an escape attempt by a young boy, who at some point befriends a massive creature known as Trico, a creature that based on your interactive choices over the course of the game develops uniquely, thus behaving in ways that sync with your distinctive play style. Late-breaking caveat: Lead designer Fumito Ueda just quit working for Sony, though he remains under contract to finish the game. Hopefully whatever led to the break is nothing to do with The Last Guardian, a game I’ve been (not patiently) waiting for since rumor of its existence leaked in 2008.
