Support NeoGAF

[iMax]

Quick, someone start "Agent Magazine"

GAF, scramble!!

 

[GnawtyDog]

That still sounds awesome, though.

Maybe you're just not as good at this as EmCee is.

Well, embracing the dream is different than shying away from it. Believer vs. closet believer.

 

[Evilmaus]

Nope. Won't be fooled. Show me the recipts.

 

[LifeLike]

Nintendo already confirmed no new Zelda at E3.
Do they event know what they are talking about?

 

[GeoramA]

God I hope so. Five E3 no-shows in a row. It's fucking time.

 

[the_firewithin]

this will fill sony holiday void #believe

 

[Jyrii]

Don't make it dependant on that Guardian article.

Nah, they have had multiple times to reintroduce it. The Guardian article may as well be bs information, but another year without any information does not bode well

 

[whoszed]

Why is there so much hype on this game?

I'm pretty sure even if it's announced it won't achieve mainstream success.

Now before anyone gets defensive, I'm not saying only a game achieving mainstream success is good.

How many copies a game sells is irrelevant as to whether it's good or not, but I'm wondering why some people are saying that the last guardian releasing would break the Internet and would be the biggest thing ever.

It seems more like a vocal minority getting excited rather than the way people are portraying the excitement EVERY person on the Internet would apparently have.

Outside of neogaf it seems like most people couldn't give a shit about this game, or even have heard of it.

It's certainly tempting me into trying team ico's previous games though, to see what it's all about.

I didn't even like Shadow of The Colossus that much. I definitely liked some things about it such as the monster design which was incredible. But the gameplay felt kinda clunky. From what we've seen of TLG, the music and everything about the aesthetics seem fantastic yet again, even better than in SoTC imo. On top of that I think they could make the actual player movement etc. feel a lot better in a modern game.

 

[BashNasty]

Too good to be true. This probably is as well.

My guess is still that Half-Life 3 is going to be announced and released this summer. I'm guessing there's going to be about a week of cryptic clues that no one believes are legit. Then Half Life 3 is going to be formally announced and released on the same day.

The internet is going to explode and it's gonna be glorious.

 

[kmax]

Nintendo already confirmed no new Zelda at E3.
Do they event know what they are talking about?

Believe!

Spoiler

..cause the no show meltdown will be glorious yet again.

 

[taizuke]

Maybe Shu will come out and say it wont be at E3 before the show now instead of people holding out hope while watching the Sony show.

Yup. I'm praying he keeps his mouth shut. Rather be disappointed during the show than to have my soul crushed now.

 

[E_Darkness]

Well I'd believe The Guardian. But then again the subject in question is The Last Guardian.

Spoiler

It'll be at E3 and on Vita. Believe.

 

[mentallyinept]

Now now, lets not get ahead of ourselves. We need a 10 minute gameplay video ATLEAST that confirms this is what the fans are expecting, and not something modeled after TLG.

Fair enough.

If all they have is a splash screen with a logo and a release date... then it will be a massive letdown.

 

[GnawtyDog]

I was just trying to understand why some people think this game will be so BIG.

Have you ever believed? That's all you need. It's a beautiful thing.....embrace it.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

The Last Guardian at e3 this year but not FFXV.

Bahahahahahahaha

To be fair, we just got an updated build today, and getting an info blowout in 6 weeks.

 

[Delusibeta]

The Guardian presents: The Last Guardian

This site reliable?

In terms of general news, very, very reliable. In terms of video games, not really.

 

[OléGunner]

hahaha we are riding this train till it crashes and burns!

Ain't getting my hopes up yet.

 

[AgeEighty]

Damn...

If this is true, Sony wins E3 by default.

I'll be incredibly excited, but let's not go overboard. Neither Ico nor SotC exactly set the charts on fire. And pretty much nobody outside dedicated gamers has even heard of this game. Even if it's announced, it will produce barely a blip on mainstream media radar screens.

 

[Omadahl]

First thing that came to mind:

[Kandinsky]

I still want it on PS3 as well D:

Ueda please D:

 

[Dartastic]

CHOOOOOOOOO CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[NESpowerhouse]

How fitting...

 

[TM94]

Thanks everyone for all your patience and understanding, but now we can get properly reveal what you've all been waiting for.

The Last Guardian TV series!!!!!


Debuting exclusively on PS Plus in the summer.

 

[SargerusBR]

Source is obviously biased.

 

[Dragonslayer_023]

Nintendo already confirmed no new Zelda at E3.
Do they event know what they are talking about?

So they just missed the news that Zelda wont be there. It's not like their good authority told them Zelda would be there. Their good authority doesn't lie.

 

[GravityInsanity]

 

[KillerSloth]

9 pages already lol.

 

[TheKastorian]

I can't handle this every year.

Hahaha, there is no greater emotional roller coaster than this!

anticipation --> excitement --> disappointment

This year is THE year. Believe!

 

[waypoetic]

I came for this gif.

I'll leave now, but before i do i just want you to know that i don't believe this. I don't. It's ded.

 

[Stanng243]

I'm ashamed to say I remember that scene from my childhood.

 

[Caipirinha]

I still want it on PS3 as well D:

Ueda please D:

What's wrong with you..

 

[The Lamonster]

I think The Guardian is really just testing GAF's server strength before E3.

 

[Bousf]

If this is accurate, then GAF is gonna melt and I will rejoice as both witness and victim lol

 

[markhimself46]

Ugh.

 

[Acquiescence]

Why is there so much hype on this game?

Because ICO and Shadow of the Colossu are two of the greatest games ever made, and because the trailer for TLG showcased an awesome premise that captured the hearts of fans all over the world. There, it's not rocket science.

 

[mattp]

this is bs

 

[gamechanger87]

They haven't made a game in 10 years. I find it difficult to understand how much you can really improve on gameplay mechanics when you haven't put your neck out there and tested things in the public marketplace in years.

Isn't this game being developed with Ueda as an outside consultant and aren't they on a shoestring budget at this point?

 

[Kriken]

LOL if this doesn't invalidate the article I don't know what would.

I don't think it really "Invalidates" the article, but I do think that points out a lack of research on their part. It also makes me wonder who the original source of "TLG will be at this e3" is, Kagari and other "insiders" have heard something similar, so I wonder if The Guardian is going off that, or are they going off "insiders on GAF say TLG will show up"

Either way, I'm past the point of caring whether it shows up or not. If a Ueda game shows up for the PS4, FANTASTIC. If not, oh well. I just can't get myself hyped for any news on TLG

 

[Faustek]

I'll be incredibly excited, but let's not go overboard. Neither Ico nor SotC exactly set the charts on fire. And pretty much nobody outside dedicated gamers has even heard of this game. Even if it's announced, it will produce barely a blip on mainstream media radar screens.

All I can say is that very casual friends loved the Team Ico games(and Katamari) sometimes ask if they are on the new playstation because they want to play them. It's like the only games they know by name.

 

[saichi]

best joke I've heard in 2015 so far. ^^

Well, Nintendo could top it with a surprise Zelda U showing with WAY more gameplay than TLG, but other than that, the hype for this game will blow the top off of everything else, IMO.

 

[Wabba]

Reading the part about Zelda made me realise that they dont know what they are talking about. What makes me sad is that Sony can have a amazing show, but if TLG isn't shown people will go crazy on the forum. Just enjoy the show, TLG will come out when its ready.

 

[TimeEffect]

The one time it sounds believable, and everyone doesnt believe it


Is happening!

 

[ViciousDS]

WHERES THE TRAIN MOTHERFUCKERS!


Choo Choo!!!!!!

 

[mentallyinept]

I'm ashamed to say I remember that scene from my childhood.

There's no shame in that dude. I remember too.

Spoiler

I'm Spartacus, etc. etc.

 

[barneystuta83]

Click bait? Or hype?

 

[L95]

The one time it sounds believable, and everyone doesnt believe it

I want to say I don't think it'll show, but this post gives me pause.

....

....

I'll continue to think it won't show.

 

[Rephin]

I don't think so. Not until Pachter confirms it's not showing up.

 

[Ushiwaka]

I believe it.
