I can't wait to see what kind of scary ass sea creatures you might encounter underwater in Last Guardian.

I've been waiting for this since the moment I finished SOTC. Team ICO FTW!

I agree it's incredible, Jon B, but being visually pretty doesn't make gaming itself an art form, it means some games contain great artwork. Not that I don't think designing a game can an artistic venture... Ueda's games are some of the prime examples.

@Buderant
Technically, games are a culmination of various art forms, such as music and imagery, etc. So in that sense, they're kinda like a collage of art forms.

But I will agree that a lot of games aren't particularly artistic, perhaps I was being a bit too general.

I teared up a bit just from the damn trailer! But that's because I love my dog and the relationship between the boy and the creature reminds me of my relationship between my dog and I.

This game looks great. I can't wait! I think it is one my girlfriend and I will play together. And when I say play together I mean that I will play and she will watch because I got lucky enough to find a girl that loves to watch most games (those that are more story driven) but hates playing them!

My bet currently is not just that the griffin dies but the player will have to kill it.

now i know how to get a good gay count of dtoid, thanks! (expect some spicy im's from me you crybaby sexy shims out there!)

Do want kitty-bird-spearholder-thing.

I REALLY hope I don't cry at the end of the game. I also hope that there's a collector's edition.

Despite adoring what I've seen of it so far, two things:

1. Anyone else think the concepts been ripped out of Black and White?

2. That gorgeous oversized alley is blatantly gonna die at the end of the game - yes, you're probably going to cry to. You big woosie.

God, who cares if you cry at the end? This shit is epic. Cut yourself a break from being a fake tough-guy every now and then.

@Billtron209 "God, who cares if you cry at the end? This shit is epic"

Is that a quote from the Bible?

When it comes to creating giant 3D creatures that can do no less than drop your jaw, Team ICO is king!

@ Poopface Morty and Paroxysm: Did you see this?

okay. i just finished viewing those shots and felt something cold on my back, i looked back only to realise i was on the floor.

Booo, PS3 is the only thing I don't own.. D:

wow... just fucking wow... just looking at these picture stirs up all kinds of things i felt when i first turned on my copy of shadow of the colossus. I knew I had the ol' ps3 sitting around for a reason

I do want to see more of what the game actually is, but I am very interested

FINALLY, something worth getting a PS3 for. Now once they lower the price... I'm in.

Graphics are awesome, the creature is almost photorealistic at times, but they seem to have chosen a totally different set of shaders for the boy: he is only slightly effected from shadows, he seems to receive no shadows, but casts shadows. It is probably the art direction that dictates this. Maybe the boy is a glow in the dark boy, some magical entity..

@errntnarcsst

Everybody crys, from time to time.
Youre no pussy! Im 30years old and i saw lots of shit, nothing concerned me. Some years ago i saw the movie Bladerunner. Anyone know it? The scene at the end on that roof, everytime i see it i start to cry:

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Time to die."

Thats the same with sothc. Deckard, the cop from bladerunner has to kill these replicants. He dosnt want it anymore, but has to. They only want a normal life(ok on the way they get a little harsh). But he kills em one after another.

Same with shadow of the colossus, these giants are the last living thing in this forsaken world, they are beautifull. The player doesnt know why but he extinguishs em one after another, making that empty world even emptier.

So if you through all this and had no feelings at the end of the game...then you are a big pink pussy.

Hmmm, definitely not a gryphon. They have the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. Toriko seems to have just a big old mix of cat and bird parts. Stylised gryphon maybe.

I DON'T CARE! I JUST WANT!

<3 Team Ico.

Why doesn't that little asshole kid remove the arrows and spears in his friend? I'm sure they have to be bothering the thing, and would feel much better with them removed.

because you don't remove arrows unless you want to start the bleeding. you can only cut them out and leave the heads.

Autumn: that's fair. I looked up Toriko and couldn't find anything. I was thinking griffin because they're historically known as Guardians. if you can find me a picture or description of a toriko I'll add it to my vocabulary.
