GDC 09: Team Ico Game to be closer to Ico than SotC

by Shak
 

During a joint panel at GDC 2009, the developers of Shadow of Colossus, Fallout 3 and No More Heroes all spoke of their latest projects.  

Goichi Suda, creator of No More Heroes, took the chance to ask a question that's been on everyone's lips. 

"I think I'll represent everybody's question in asking about Mr. Ueda's new game." 

Fumito Ueda, creator of Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, let loose some information regarding Team ICO's next game, after being initially secretive about the game. 

"...Well, probably it will be similar to the past... we are struggling. The essence of the game is rather close to Ico."

BETTER Response (Translation Wise Below)

Slightly different report from gamasutra:

Ueda's response? "Well, let's see. It might be similar to the past, probably... I'm struggling. The essence of the game is close to Ico... I can't talk about this anymore. Don't ask any more questions, please!"

____________

THIS is big news for fans

Its CLOSER to ICO than SOTC! (SO no HUGE monsters)!

Its cool to see the NMH guy looking forward to it!

Hopefully MORE details will be revealed soon

If a developer say we are struggling I don't take it like something good

It could just be a translation error... english isn't his first language after all...

OT: I'm glad because Ico is f**king awesome!!!

They are probably struggling to make the game live up to the expectations of the fanbase and also trying to live up to the quality of the other games!

Bring on more information!

@MAUELF

Your thread titles are starting to piss me off. They're not informative. They're just a bunch of exclamation points and capital letters, in an effort to get people to click your threads.

Yes, there is, even if it would have to be made with great care. I don't think it's a spoiler if I reveal that Shadow of the Colossus takes place in the same universe as ICO.
But I think he was talking about game genre and spirit, not about plot contiguity.
