Arguably the most disappointing absentee from this year’s E3, Team ICO’s The Last Guardian has been getting major hype since its first speculative trailer last year. The studio has confirmed that the anticipated title will be making an appearance at Tokyo Game Show, specifically at a special invite session with creator Fumito Ueda at 3pm on September 16th. It has also been rumored that the expected high-definition treatments of the studio’s previous work like ICO have been showed in past conventions in Japan, leading some to believe an official announcement on an HD boxed set of the games to be announced around the same time period.
Well yeah after it not appearing at E3, it was only logical to have an appearance at TGS. I have seen some uprezed pics of ICO, so it is very possible that there could be an HD remix (and I hope it includes SotC; yes SotC is great, but that blur the PS2 produces is annoying). Can’t wait to see what Team Ico has done with The Last Guardian in the last year, and when we will be able to play the game.
I am very interested, but I will stay reserved. I love Team ICO, but can lightning strike 3 times?
