@omarct As an artist, I can tell you that it pays to take your time. Rushing things makes things sloppy, and therefore, I think Fumito Ueda should take as much time he feels necessary. He's not going to rush a crappy, like people do with making Call of Duty. He's making art, he needs time.

...What are you calling me an idiot for? I never said he wasn't leaving Sony. He obviously has, I even acknowledged that in my first post. But he isn't making Facebook games as you previously stated Yoshifusa Hayama, the producer for "The Last Guardian" is the guy who will be doing work for Facebook games. You obviously didn't know that so I told you. Twice now.

@nosapian677 Sony has announced officially that ICO and Shadow of the Colossus creator Fumito Ueda has left the company.,i did ,look like you didnt so dont reply idiot

[nosapian677]

@Spulpacz ...What? No he isn't, the producer for the game Yoshifusa Hayama is. Not Ueda. Do your research next time.

[Spulpacz]

@nosapian677 well he wont be making them on the consoles,so it doesnt matter,he will be making facebook games,lol

@MustNotRead

He leads his own developing company (or rather he used too, since he's leaving Team Ico). Sony is dependent on the products made by developers. A publishing company rarely forces a well-known author to rush their work.

Plus the game began it's initial production in 2008, if it comes out in 2012, that's only four years. Both Ico and Shadow of the Colossus took about four years. That's not terribly long in the world of entertainment production. Quit being impatient.

@Spulpacz

Says who? He still intends to make games after he leaves Sony, so he still has chance to make some great stuff for the future. What logic is there in saying this will be his last great piece? Is the quality of his work dependent exclusively on Sony? That's like saying an author is only good if they remain loyal to a good publishing company.

[Spulpacz]

Fumito Ueda left Sony so this will be the last great game he makes ,Ico and Shadow and Last Guardian will be a trilogy

[AyaTeien]

I'll buy a PS3 just for this game; I kid you not.
