The Shadow is almost upon us. With the mid-Oct. launch date looming, 1UP.com now has available a behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming PS2 adventure, Shadow of the Colossus. This article (from the Oct. issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine) includes an interview with the game's lead artist and director, Fumito Ueda, as well as the ongoing comparisons to his team's previous cult PS2 hit, Ico. The authors of this feature suggest that Western development teams have been focusing more on how big their guns are, while Ueda-san has been creating art. Hmmm, wonder if a BFG could take down one of those suckers.
