Trico reminds me so much of my one year old puppy. These few seconds hit me in the gut.
I almost choked up in this part.
This game is gonna make me cry a lot.

We can see a transparent legs of whatever is possessing the armor
I hope there will be a lore about them in the game and not one of those "we will leave it to the player's imagination"
Whoaaa. Like the shadows in ICO..
It wouldn't surprise me if it's a sequel to Ico somehow.

I wish they hadn't spoiled the 2nd Trico. Seems like such a huge reveal. Why spoil that now when we have been waiting so long for it.

Definitely not an STD, as I'm a pure.
Reminds me of TLOU

Just recently on the Polygon stream the team reported that in their interview with Ueda, he states that he is "hoping" that Team Ico can finish Last Guardian in time for the release date currently announced, and "if they had it their way" Last Guardian wouldn't even be demoed today.
Either way, my heart is going to be broken on October 25th.

LOL, if Ueda had his way The Last Guardian would be delayed to 2345 at the earliest.

Pretty sure it is from the game itself. That music almost made me tear up with what they showed.

Can't wait for the collector to go up on amazon.it. Come on!

It's really not surprising for them to want to actually make the game instead of using any time for demo.
Wow this got me really excited. That part with the boy saying bye to Trico and he still keeps following him is so endearing.
Looks so good. Like a fusion of ICO and SOTC for real. I can't freaking wait for this. Trico looks amazing.

I'll believe the release date when the game is on the shelf to buy and not a second before.
Was this an appointment only demo? Why didn't Sony have this on the floor for people to actually play.
A lot of developers and publishers do this. Horizon is being shown off behind closed doors as well.

hnnnng thanks for the offscreen gameplay

I was slightly underwhelmed watching this on the stream last night, but watching the trailer by itself again in higher quality (and without the distraction of wondering what the next trailer will be) gave me some serious chills. The hype has returned.
I thought the live orchestra really set the mood. I was in tears by how beautiful it is. I'm so glad the wait is almost over. The game I bought my PS3 for......is finally going to be in my hands......on the PS4 lol
Someone hacked Y2Kevs account!!!!!!
In all seriousness......ICO and SotC weren't long games at all. Single sitting games and were probably two of my GotGs in the PS2 era. A game doesn't have to be long to be amazing. I have faith that it will be the most gripping team ICO game to date. Tears will be shed, smiles and laughter will be embraced. The end......will only bring the want....for more

Quite a lot of narration in that video. I wonder if this will be a more dialogue-driven game than ICO and SotC.
20 hours is nuts. Assuming it actually is that long, there could be pacing issues with a running time that lengthy, but we'll see.
We've waited eight years. I don't think 20 hours is out of the question.
I know what you mean, though.

And PSVR with all it's launch all at the sametime.
It's not like it was actually in development for that long. The dev time wouldn't translate into a longer game.

Looking just as good as I'd hoped.
Same here. I've been waiting so long for this there's no way I'd miss a CE for it.

Spoiler about the narration:
Gamespot guy mentioned that the boy is narrating as an old man.
Exactly!
And another Zombie game? Sony, what are you doing?
Which is actually damn good for a singleplayer game.

It wasn't appointment only, but there were only 2 demo stations and the demo was about 45 minutes long so not a lot of people got to play.

Eurogamer has played the first 40minutes, looks like it has more than a few problems. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-06-15-the-last-guardian-the-first-40-minutes
And yet, despite The Last Guardian looking like Sony has papered over the cracks of a last-gen game, it struggles. The controls are fiddly and unresponsive, and the camera is a constant thorn in your side. After you find a mysterious shield, you can use it to project a beam of light that triggers and directs a lightning bolt that shoots from Trico's tail. This is used for puzzle solving in the game's opening, but it feels cumbersome in such an enclosed environment with a camera that refuses to play ball.
40 minutes of play time isn't enough to judge The Last Guardian, of course. Yes, I'm worried about the controls and camera and framerate, but the more I think about my time with the game, the more confident I am of its soul. Still, The Last Guardian faces the perhaps insurmountable task of meeting expectations set by Sony almost a decade ago. Perhaps that's okay. Perhaps it isn't.

To me the soul is the most important part of an Ueda game.
Also, Shadow of the Colossus was, by many accounts, a complete technical disaster shortly before E3 2005 (I remember the GAF thread). Some say it was one upon release, too, but it improved a lot in the final months. It's not going to be the smoothest or most responsive game when it comes out, I know this, but that's like the last thing I expect or need from one of these games.

Good. Keep it this way. I've seen more than enough of the game, perhaps more than I should have... Team ICO games for me have always been about the joy of exploration and discovery, the mystery of the unknown. I don't want to be spoon-fed locations and what's possible in the game months before I get to play it, especially after waiting so long.
