Death Proof sucked. Also, Fumito Ueda is a genius who makes brilliantly original games and not a creepy virgin foot fetishist who is only capable of making stale pomo pastiche.AranhaHunter said:

I really hope their next game is difficult. Although ICO had your straightfoward platforming and SotC had next to no platforming, save for a few areas, I want the game to be hard.
ICO was a first. Most of the team members had never worked on a video game before. Shadow of the Colossus took everything from ICO and made it better. It was a different game but it was the same as ICO in many ways. Why would the third game fail to live up to its predecessors when the creators have the same freedom and priviliges they had in the past, and the gained knowledge of eight years? Now they also have Sony's full backing because they proved they can make a good game which puts the company under the light of critical acclaim.

That's some brilliant reasoning there.

Yes, you're right. I'm actually replaying the game right now on my PS3. About to start on the collosus where you scare it off with the fire. What I meant was environmental platforming. The collosi fights were fun and sweet, but most were short, didn't make the wonderful experience last very long.
I do like the collosus fight where you had to jump from pillar to pillar. Now that was fun!

There was gameplay in between colossus fights that involved more than riding your horse from point A to point B? I must have missed it.
In other words, the colossi battles were the meat of the game and just about every one of them features platforming prominently.

Not ALWAYS true...
Actually after reading the article, I don't think he literally meant soon. I think he just passively said "soon" as way to say that the game will eventually be revealed some time, not necessarily within the year. And since Ueda himself said that major production on the game hasn't started yet, I'm beginning to think this will be shown at TGS 09 not next month.
But we'll wait and see. I'd be glad to be proven wrong. I'm just not gonna get my hopes up again.

actually after reading your post i bet your bottles are always half empty... ;-)
but yeah, Yoshida sounds a little bit forced to say something in the vein of "soon", "near future" etc. maybe the good man simply doesn`t know - yet.

It was called ICO 3 by the crazy fan who found the careers page had been updated with that screen. It's supposed to mean something like Team ICO Game 3. A codename of sorts.
That same crazy fan still checks that page every single day hoping they put up a new picture or change something. :lol

Yeah, but Ico was a bit of a flash in the pan for the most part. I don't think everyone thought they would capture lightning again...of course instead they created one of the most memorable PS2 titles on a system with many...so the expectations on a third masterpiece are quite high, but are bound to cause major disappointment.
I cry a little inside when I remeber that my PS3 is not backwards compatible....SotC is forever lost until they release it on PSN (pray). The last game I (re)played on my PS2 before I sold it was Ico. Had to let it go with the fondest of memories.

Sorry I wasn't behind the computer (left work like 4 hours ago and I've just arrived home).
So :
Mario 64
Super Mario 3
Zelda 3
Shenmue
Street Fighter III 3rd strike
Shadow of the Colossus
Another World
Soul Calibur
Tetris
Panzer Dragoon Saga
ICO
RE 4
... (ok like 2 minutesfor these so maybe some are not really)
But I can't remember a lot of old games... and I don't want to spend a lot of time for this.
But you get my idea. It's just that saying only 2 true masterpieces in videogames is very minimalist (IMO)
Anyway I can't wait for this game to be unveil.

Media Molecule's company size is 27, which is smaller than the team that was working on SoTC.

Well, there's something to look forward to for TGS. Crossing fingers now... wait, I can't play Castle Crashers with my fingers crossed...

Most likely are using tech from Sony's Worldwide Studios and putting their spin on it. Doubt they're trying to develop everything from the ground up. Not sure why Sony would so much into Sony's Edge program and their Worldwide Studios if they were just going to reinvent the wheel for every game..

Like they did with the last two games? Lest we forget that the PS2 was once considered a hard platform to work on too. The way Sony execs have talked about the game, to me sounds like have been doing research and development up until recently (references to the critical/pre-production stage).andycapps said:
They're a super smart team, I'm sure they're working on a lot of their own stuff. Despite that Phil's legacy was to get SCE studios to work together. Wouldn't it be amazing if Naughty Dog, Santa Monica and the Japan Studio were all pooling research for their own games as one entity? Maybe the language barrier is too big for that.
