Rumor: Team ICO project explores The Last Canyon

Yep, looking forward to it.

It was....

is that a question or are you frankenstein? jk ;)

The folks over at NEOGaF claim this to be fake also.

yes and they still stand behind their comment :)

The way you put it makes it sound boring to me. :)

Team Ico doesn't do boring, however. I'm sure there will be some cool stuff to dodge or bomb or whatever.

Haha. I think it sounds fun, if done properly. ;o

No, you're thinking of LittleBigPlanet.

Sorry, Sony fanboys. You know it's true.

ouch, that's one of the few ps3 games that has me interested too! admittedly I haven't saw much about it though.

@ abscissa, not all games need 60 fps buddy. I played that game to death and i felt it was quite responsive. it also doesn't have to be 60 fps to make it look good as well, and this game definitely moved me with its epic setting and battles. don't movies play in 24fps? eh correct me if i'm wrong. =\

Pfft, who said anything about 60fps? I'd have been perfectly happy if Shadow of the Colossus actually DID run as fast as 24-30fps (And yes, movies run at 24fps, although the nature of film makes it an apples-to-oranges comparison).

I thoroughly enjoyed Ico, even despite the lower-than-average (even at the time) framerate. But then Shadow of the Colossus came along and took it to a whole new level. No exaggeration: I hadn't seen a framerate that bad since back in the mid-nineties when the trendy thing was to do [crappy] 3D just for 3D's sake (and yes, I play a lot of games).

Maybe I'm not seeing this framerate "problem" the way as everyone else. Perhaps it's because I played NES and SNES games more than any other game, but I've yet to have any issues with frame rates.

Besides, if your only complaint about a game is something as frivolous as frame rate, you're just getting ri-goddamn-diculous.

If you've played more NES and SNES games than other games than that's probably why you haven't had many issues with framerates. Those game only had occasional slowdowns. For the most part, they were a smooth 30fps. If you consider framerate to be frivolous then I suggest you play a few more action games that run at or below 15fps.

Don't make me out to be a framerate whore: As I *thought* I already stated, I don't give a crap if a game's framerate is anywhere from 30 to 100+. Anything above about 25 (sustained, not peak) is perfectly playable. But the further you drop below that the more it affects playability. Any game programmer worth their salt will tell you this.

Additionally, why is it ridiculous to have exactly one complaint about a game? How many complaints do I have to have against a game before I'm allowed to stop pretending the game is flawless and could not be improved upon, and how big do those additional drawbacks have to be? Did I say "Shadow of the Colossus sucks because it has a bad framerate?" No, I did not. I just said that it had a bad framerate and made a (admittedly sarcastic) comment that I hoped their next game would fix that.

And yet, if it were on the Wii everyone would be clamoring about how great it would be to have to do the exact same thing. Gotta love double standards :p

Actually, I'm just as skeptical about the Wii.

Waggle killed the video game star.

I think it was more about comaraderie & attachment. In ICO it was the girl and in SOTC it was the horse.

It still amazes me how great those two games are, so I find it hard to imagine they'll mess this up.

"I think it was more about comaraderie & attachment. In ICO it was the girl and in SOTC it was the horse."

Nothing like camaraderie with a girl and a horse to make a good game. Perhaps they'll add a midget in there too this time.

It appears to be a tech demo now. Im really excited to see what they do with this game before it comes out. That and all the user created stuff should make it one of the coolest games to come out in recent history.
