Game Informer to reveal the Team ICO game?

[Darji]

Upcoming Issue of Game Informer to feature first details and title of next Team ICO-game

First glimpse of ICO-successor: Ueda reveals next game.
While the whole world is occupied with playing the third Halo-game, Game Informer got the chance to get the first real news about Team ICO´s next generation game for Playstation 3. Instead of having some lukewarm chitchat we went home with material for a whole feature - this feature. After having created two such completely different experiences as ICO and Shadow of the Colossus, one could wonder where the next game would go. Fighting giants in HD? No, thanks god Fumito Ueda who we talked to chose another different, unique setting: The whole game is one gigantic, wide flat desert. Ueda described it as being like Death Valley (California), only being different in one department: It’s not really a flat area. That’s what it looks like when you’re hundreds of meters above ground. Actually, the whole area is interspersed with canyons. A lot of them, and all of different width and depth. The key of
the game is, so says Ueda, to explore these canyons and find 'something'. What this ‘something' is will be revealed at a later time. Now, what is it that’ll make this game so special one might ask. Besides the breath-taking setting of this enormous desert with canyons all over the place, the way you explore those is what makes the difference: The main character will travel by utilizing a glider, which allows him to fly through the air. It’s not some high-tech glider, but seemingly a traditional glider, made of wood and cloth. What makes this so unique is that you freely, and we cannot put enough emphasize on that, fly around that desert, dive into these canyons and jump off the glider to run around without it. From what we’ve seen there’s never before been that feeling of flying around in the sky, combined with this scale of environment. One thing that returns from both previous games is the ability to climb. While diving into canyons you’ll have to climb back to the surface, having a glider and not a motor-driven vehicle. The information you read until now was exciting, and we should end this article with something exciting, as well: The working title of Team ICO´s third game is 'The Last Canyon'. Having seen how many canyons this game has we’re looking forward to find out more about the title’s meaning.

dont know if this is true but it could be a true Team ICO game^^

As long as SOMEBODY reveals SOMETHING about this game, I'll be happy.

Gameinformer usually get some games in their magazine before it hit sites, Dead Space & Prototype are two perfect examples of that. I can't wait for the next issue to come in.

[Idenowhereiam]

interesting.. i don't know i'm kinda skeptical but.. then again thinking about whose making this game..hahaha.. i'm sure it'll be brilliant

[Jap Attack]

Thats wierd. Why would they show it first on an american magazine and not TGS? Sony's been confusing me lately with there chooses.

[Wargasm]

I...need to change my shorts.

[Hussaro]

source ?

scan, pic anything.

[nelsonroyale]

eh, that sounds a bit funny...I was hoping for a more fully fledged adventure, at least I hope there is some interaction, or at least enemies. Il withold my thoughts until I see confirmation though

[Me_Becoming_I]

That concept sounds absolutely awesome. I seriously hope its true. Couple that with (possibly) amazing visuals, and it could easily be one of the most amazing games around...

Don't fail me now rumour...

[designit123]

It's fake. Someone from Game Informer debunked it.

[Lirion]

It's fake. Someone from Game Informer debunked it.

That sucks, this sounded so awsome.

[WonsAuto]

Proof of the GI reveal- or even of it's debunking- would be nice to have.

[VG Aficionado]

So, someone makes a thread about news without source, and someone else debunks it without a source either. How cool!

[designit123]

The GI guy posts on GAF. Find the thread there and it's on the 3rd page.

[manyak1]

... i think i just wet my pants

[VG Aficionado]

Yeah, this is FAKE. This is the NeoGAF thread, and the GameInformer staffer confirmed this is not featured in their next issue.

By the way, IGN believed the rumor. LOL!

[Doc Evils]

GI confirmed it's not true. Where the hell did this come from?

[Pantyhelmet]

from between some bored souls buttcheeks most likely.

[tamud]

I hope it does not look boring since we can only see canons and desert and no vegetation or structurs or large master. Oh my it is such a pity they decided to put Shadow of colosus for ps3 instead of ps2 and this new game should have been for ps2 because nothing is big or any spectacular scene. I do hope this news is a fake because it really is boring

hopefully people read this post and catch on since thetitle hasn't changed.

[Idenowhereiam]

**** that sucks.. i was all excited an such.. but to who ever made that rumor up.. bravo and you suck!!!

[tamud]

good thing its fake . Thats a relief

[zenkaipower]

I dont see why this wouldn't be new ICO project? Sounds awesome! Seriously if team ICO wont make this, can anyone else? lol

[MikeCandler]

What we need is a new SoC that game was simply amazing...they must have something big to show if it is taking this long considering there have been rumors for (seems like last year) ago their new game.

Hopefully sooner than later we see something.

[Cooke_E_G]

Even though this is FAKE it did sound pretty interesting! I think this should be closed sense the rumor has already been debunked!
