Hello Ponies,

It has come to my attention that yet another E3 has passed and some vaporware trash game called The Last Guardian decided not to show its hideous face yet again. I know, I know. You have all heard my warnings and my decrees that you shouldn't be hyped for this game because it no longer exists. That you shouldn't be hyped for this game because it wouldn't be at E3. And that you shouldn't be hyped for this game because you look all sloppy when you get emotional and your makeup is terrible.

But of course some of you chose not to listen. You'll believe and believe and believe while Big Men in Suits tell jokes about NAPA VALLEY and preach to you about innovative crossmedia polymorphic free to play content.

The game's dead. If it isn't dead (which it is), it's been so dramatically retooled and reworked that it's not the game anymore and you should look forward to something new from the people that actually work at Sony Japan and not the corpses that failed on this game for over five years.

If someone from Team ICO or Sony would like to contact me to give me the full story of this game's development or explain why exactly we haven't seen anything from this game in four years, they can write it on some toilet paper and I'll wipe my ass with it cause this is all bullshit.

But is it officially dead?

Even if the development is stopped, it can still live on, inside of us. It's not about the end destination, it's about the journey innit

 

[Quotient]

Sony is waiting till we have given up hope and then BOOM they'll announce it for the VITA! /s

 

[Hasney]

Well waiting for it to happen made me miss a Cena match on Raw, so that's a bonus.

 

[Blackage]

I'm going to use this gif properly to convey how I feel:

 

[anaron]

STOP IT, OK. I am in a bad place right now.

So... if I am a member of the staff I can skip the forum rules and trolling?

Because I'm pretty sure if I do this with any game I'll be permanently banned.

Classy...

Lol, just sip some tea, it's already been served

 

[Occam]

I expected nothing to be shown during Sony's conference and wasn't disappointed. The twitter message from last week pretty much suggested this. Anyway, if this game really continues to be in development, then it makes no sense that they STILL have NOTHING to show, and haven't shown anything since the original announcement. Doesn't add up.

 

[CTLance]

I was never a fan of the flying rat thing, anyway.

 

[AppleMIX]

I was always on your side.

My hypothesis is that TLG has been paired down to a 2D side-scrolling platformer with elements of A Boy and his Blob gameplay and will be released as a PSN game for $15.

 

[Strike]

I put it in the same category as HL3 and Agent. It'll show up when it shows up.

 

[dmr87]

But what about TGS?

Spoiler

why

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

Cannot believe it wasn't shown. Painfully absent from an overall dreadful conference.

 

[MilesTeg]

TGS. That's where all the good shit will come from (along with Gamescom).

TGS is deader than TLG. The sooner everyone here realizes that the happier you will all be.

 

[Spineker]

I think it's time to embrace the horror, GAF.

At least when it comes to Half life 3, Valve have form in that regard.

 

[Ventara]

I'm still believing. Sony acknowledged it's still in development. I don't think they'd do that if it really was dead. Haters gonna hate.

Spoiler

And shouldn't this be ban-worthy? Seems like a troll thread. Or is it because he's a mod? If so, this is a clear case of power not used responsibly. Uncle Ben is disappointed.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

I'll never deal.

I'll flip this dealer's table.

Fuck the house.

 

[LiK]

Nothing comes out of TGS, that show has been going down the drain for years...

BELIEVE

 

[jWILL253]

The thing that has disgusted me the most about this whole thing is that Sony (and Square Enix , for that matter) seem totally tone deaf.

They know that people have been waiting on this damn game for years, and they just drag their feet on without a single peep. I wanna know who keeps giving Team ICO a pass. If this were EA, this game would've came out a couple years after it was announced. If this were Ubisoft, this would be a yearly title by now. This kind of shit would get any other studio shitcanned, but Sony keeps dragging along...

 

[Tookay]

The cat dies at the end of the game.

Every character died when the game was cancelled.

 

[Incitemaybe]

I agree that if it is released it'll be in name only and would lack the love of its creator.

TLG is gone


*lets it go

 

[legacyzero]

Man, what a sad day :/

 

[darkwing]

Don't worry Trico, you will always live in our hearts

 

[TheContact]

What a great OP. Sad but true

 

[Guevara]

What kills me is all the posters going: "No TLG therefore Sony conference F-"

 

[Narag]

Perfect.

 

[Vostro]

It'll show up when HL3 shows up.

 

[hydruxo]

All aboard the TGS hype train

Spoiler

I don't even care anymore tbh haha

 

[ghst]

disgusting post. imagine if a sony executive reads this and succumbs to spending fifteen precious seconds of their sacred time to rebuff it in a tweet. think of all the creative wonders which could have been conjured up in that time that you have now denied the world.

 

[DMeisterJ]

IGN WAS RIGHT

!

IGN served the true tea, and now people need to rihpent

 

[GQman2121]

Given what Tretton said about it, this was the first time I actually did think it might be dead. We'll see.

Yeah, that was pretty telling in the GT preshow. He knows things.

 

[Lazyslob]

IT'S STILL REAL TO ME

 

[SonnyBoy]

Yea, Sony fucked it up.

 

[Riedinizzo]

My heart can't take this

 

[Duxxy3]

5 god damn years and nothing.

 

[Twilight Princess]

NO I WILL NOT DEAL

 

[watershed]

I think I've let go of The Last Guardian at this point. It's sleeping now.

 

[XMast3r]

I'm glad this cancelled, whenever I see someone talk about this I can never understand the hype. It was a prerendered trailer that showed no game play. yet people go nuts over it.

 

[Fey]

IGN WAS RIGHT

sigh, yeah seems like it :/

 

[Neiteio]

The things people take pleasure in

 

[fallagin]

it's all ogre

Ogre my dead body.

 

[SeanTSC]

*fingers in ears* NOPE NOPE NOPE!

 

[anaron]

Lmao

Classy...

Sometimes extreme measures must be taken to break the deluded so they can be cured.

 

[tanooki27]

leydon mentioned something about TLG's eventual "route to market." I took that to mean vita exclusive.

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

Isn't Pony a bannable term? Well GAF mods=old white Republicans confirmed.

 

[L Thammy]

When Y2Kev is banned, does that make him The Last Guardian of Moderators?

 

[10k]

#TeamY2Kev

This game has probably changed so far from it;s original vision when it was last shown. TLG that was revealed in 2009 doesn't exist anymore.

 

[striferser]

No! No!
I still believe. I still have faith.
You won't shake my faith!!!!!

Spoiler

Damn, it so hurt ;_;

 

[-Horizon-]

Mod account suicide?

Don't worry, he still has his Shinra account.
