Sony said the same thing about the last guardian...
By the time the game comes out you will have forgot about the comic anyway. *rimshot*

By AI, I meant AI and all that it entails. In the very few clips we have, he seems overly ambitious to the point that it doesn't seem possible for him to exist on the PS3. You can't take something that big and expect it to naturally interact with an enclosed environment for long without headaches occurring. If you want him to be anything more than a creature that just kind of does a few predetermined things, you've got to really put a heck of a lot of work into it. Add to that the complexity of him in general (his feathers, for instance) and it seems like something the PS3 really just can't do.
It sounds ridiculous, but if the PS4 is more suited to the artistic vision, I'd gladly wait for it and then buy one just to play this game.
I'd put a hundred into that right now, with no need for kickstarter prize tiers, and with the knowledge that the $100 doesn't get me the game.

Putting The Last Guardian on PS4 would mean it'll sell even fewer copies than on PS3.
I'll say Summer 2013. #believe

You can always scale back the graphics. I think it has to be the Ai/Animations/clipping that is holding back development. Its not like there are tools available to create the type of Ai that they are going for, it has to be created from scratch. Edit: what Lordcanti said
What do you do for a living? Can I have your job?
Yes, please enjoy this collection of award-winning shit games.

The Versus trademark thing happened a year ago and was more recently confirmed to be still in development. So far, the trademark is "dead" for TLG, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's cancelled

Ehy, SCEJ
So what? We didn't see anything of LA Noire for three years, it still came out.
People are so doubting. Sony said this game is still in development, SE said Versus is, so they are.
Who the f are you to come in here with positive news?!?

I wouldn't read too much into this (yet). Up until recently it was very much still in development.

I don't think any amount of kickstarter in the world can cover this. I believe it's a developmental disaster and too expensive at this point. Don't think it's cancelled but it's being delayed indefinitely.

Why is it so hard to believe that a game that had a trailer LAST YEAR is still in development?
Do we not remember that?
At all?
Come on.

God these gifs are killing me. The removal of the shirt at the beginning puts this one squarely in the legendary category
I take it you've never been in a fight before?

Yeah but the studio at charge was closed after that. I guess Duke Nukem Forever is the best example of development hell that was finally released. (sadly)
Ouch, that swing.
Kinda feel like that guy who got hit.

That studio died too, so will Team ICO, but I'm confident we'll get the game before hand.

Countdown to Zynga's The Last Guardian..
"I will not give you a detailed update, but I will say one thing," senior vice president of product development Scott Rohd told GameSpot. "It goes back in my mind to innovation and to gamers and to quality. That title is going to ship when it is absolutely ready."
ie,never ever
They only copy things that will make money.

This is what Sony should´ve done to Team Ico years ago:

So, nobody is buying the trademark? C'mon GAF...
There are many examples of development hells that succeeded in the end. Ocarina of Time for example went through quite a few phases and problems before it started to take its final form.
