Forums - Sony - Sony needs to put some sort of limit on team ICO

 

What should Sony do with Team ICO?

Let them be 32 21.77%
 
Set a concrete date for them to be done 42 28.57%
 
Make them show progress o... 71 48.30%
 
Total:145

Honestly this is ridiculous.  The Last Guardian has had years and years to develope.  This whole gen they haven't put out a single game.  They aren't bringing Sony in any money and sucking up resources and money.  They should be pressured.  I realize Sony is known for having a good relationship with their devs and giving them time, but this is unacceptable.  Do you think Sony should let them be or make them set show some progress or set a concrete date to get certain things done.

If I was a Sony executive, I would demand results. If I didn't get them, I would reassign the studio to another project.

But as a fan, I desperately want to see The Last Guardian. So I'm willing to wait. And wait. And wait.



it's not about team ico,it's about the guy behind the game(ueda?)

he is an artist and lots of them don't care about money(as long as it not their money) or time limits when they reach a certain status of fame(god mode)-than they try to reach perfection and will lose controle while trying and the result:they are not able to release a pretty small linear 10hour game in 8 years while in the same time rockstar deveoped and released 2 huge open world GTA's(4 and 5).
As ueda is no longer boss of team ico the limit is already put.

I think there are no informations about this game,because sony won't release it on ps3 buton ps4 as system seller(i hope so,as the last guardian trailer looked really good and will look amazing on next gen)

yeah I'm sure after SotC he got cocky and thought himself untouchable.  Sony probably started pressuring him which is most likely why he left.  It is ridiculous to look at what ND or Rockstar has done this gen and then see they can't release their barren world artsy game.

I think there is one of two possibilities here. One, Sony decided since it was so late in the gen, they would switch developement for TLG to PS4 in time for it to be a launch window game. This could be part of the reason we haven't got any new pics or videos for the game in some time. Or two, Sony will release it in 2014/2015 to show the PS3 is still getting support, even though the PS4 will have been out for 1-2 years. And they may be ready to give new info at E3 or TGS.

Either way, I can't wait to play this game.

they better have SOMETHING at E3 this year.  Last year in an interview they reassured us it was still being made and they would let it "bake" I believe were their words.  Well everyone has already had dinner and is ready to go or leaving at this point so they better pull it out of the damn oven or let someone have a look at it!

Do what they're doing now. Send over some Santa Monica programmers to help get the project finished. Get the game released, then dissolve Team Ico and re-assign the staff who want to stay on into Japan Studio.

Even Polyphony, who faffed around immensely this generation, have managed to get 3 games out of the door.



I'm sure they've already put a limit. Last Guardian will be the last game they'll release on a Sony console. (If it happens at all)



Game of the year 2017 so far:

5. Resident Evil VII
4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
3. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
2. Horizon Zero Dawn
1. Super Mario Odyssey

I agree it is getting to the point where it just becomes ridiculous. At least put out new news on the game weather you want to finish it or not.



Currently own:

 

  • Ps4

 

Currently playing: Witcher 3, Walking Dead S1/2, GTA5, Dying Light, Tomb Raider Remaster, MGS Ground Zeros

They ported the ICO/SOTC collection didn't they?


...but I agree, give them a deadline and make sure they meet it, they've had long enough.


Bluepoint ported it. Some they have little excuse for this game not being released after all these years.
