From Geek culture:

"The Last Guardian needs to be experienced and played by everyone. Delving beyond what we mentioned above is to go into spoiler territory, but we implore you to jump in. Do that and you will most likely shed a tear or feel an emotional pull throughout the whole adventure. While not the most original tale on earth, its execution and its design is close to being perfect."

BahamutPT · Dec 5, 2016

Here we go again.

TimeEffect · Dec 5, 2016

I hope it's recognized for the technical prowess of making strong a.i and animations. Those two things seem so important and lacking in other games.

Don.Abbade · Dec 5, 2016

dis gonna be good

Almost a decade waiting for it... can't believe it's finally here.

One of the few reasons scores are alright.

Just read the numbers.

They're borderline meaningless anyway.

Strangelove77 · Dec 5, 2016

High 60s, low 70s average.

zeromcd73 · Dec 5, 2016

90+ let's do this!

Whompa02 · Dec 5, 2016

O_O yus!!!!

FF Seraphim · Dec 5, 2016

Oh man... cannot wait to see how the scores for this is spread out.

Cannot wait to get my hands on this game though.

Hexa · Dec 5, 2016

Good lord. It just hit me that this is actually happening. This isn't a dream. This is real.

I doubt it

Cardon · Dec 5, 2016

I think the average may be a bit low. Even the writer for the site I'm part of didn't seem to like it, or at the very least understand what the game was trying to achieve in execution and design, which left me puzzled as I edited it.

-Plasma Reus- · Dec 5, 2016

Watch the bird thing turn out to be the devil incarnate.

Mupod · Dec 5, 2016

I always used to say I wasn't going to buy a PS3 until this came out. At last, that time has come.

Yeah, the little boy can go to hell for all I care, but don't touch Trico.

I-hate-u · Dec 5, 2016

Don't overreact to anything and don't get banned. Stay say GAF. See you on the other side.

Magic Mushroom · Dec 5, 2016

Not really a review, but Simon Parkin called it the standout game of 2016.

https://www.theguardian.com/technol...r-watch-dogs-2-dishonored-2-the-last-guardian

But the standout game of 2016 will be The Last Guardian, a Japanese-made buddy game about a young boy and a hulking, dog-like creature who together must escape a tumbledown castle. In the pair’s movements the game has all the masterly animation of a Studio Ghibli film, but The Last Guardian’s true power comes from the way in which a story of trust, companionship and restoration (Trico, as the creature is called, has clearly suffered much abuse at the hands of his captors) is told not through cinematic scenes, but through the game’s tactile interactions. If ever there was a story to salve the wounds inflicted by this dark year, this is it.

We're at the final stretch.

Predicting 84 average.

Yeah, 84 is what I was thinking earlier. I think it's going to have a few 9s, a few 7s and mostly 8s. I'm interested to see what Edge thinks of it, but won't know that for a few weeks when the next issue comes out.

Memento · Dec 5, 2016

PLEASE NO SPOILERS

The Rain King · Dec 5, 2016

How time flies.

Reckon 80-85.

Will buy regardless.

KennyLinder · Dec 5, 2016

Here goes. It's been a very, very long time waiting for this moment

You're gonna have a bad time if you buy a PS3.

gloriousd · Dec 5, 2016

Please be good! <keeps fingers crossed>

I'm predicting 85+ meta.

friskykillface · Dec 5, 2016

🤔👀

HStallion · Dec 5, 2016

At this point I expect mid 80's as some people weight the technical hiccups more than the others and some just don't care for this type of game.

RoadHazard · Dec 5, 2016

Did that review spoil something pretty big (

"how they got out of the ruins" - i.e. they both make it out

)? Hope not.

Indeed, mine as well.

SomedayTheFire · Dec 5, 2016

78 mc i think. I think there's going to be more than a few lower scores.

le.phat · Dec 5, 2016

8.3 on the agragate sites. 10/10 best game since bloodborne for me.
