Ueda: The Last Guardian Moving Ahead Under Completely New Conditions

December 11, 2014

According to director Fumito Ueda, The Last Guardian is moving forward under “completely new conditions.” No, we're not trolling you.

Ueda discussed the adventure game with Dengeki PlayStation (translated by Kotaku), stating that “talks with Sony Computer Entertainment on The Last Guardian have been ironed out, and we're making progress under completely new conditions.”

The director added, “I'm also working on some other things that I'll hopefully be able to show in time if progress is smooth.”

The Last Guardian was announced way back in 2009, and has since been stuck in development hell, even undergoing a “reengineering” at one point. The title was, unsurprisingly, not involved in last weekend's PlayStation Experience, but speculation about Ueda's “completely new conditions” point to a possible platform shift from PlayStation 3 to PlayStation 4.

I'm currently based out of Las Vegas, NV (no I don't gamble all the time or live in a hotel on the strip) but I'm a So Cal kid through and through. I'm a Nintendiehard -- I stand by my man -- but I'm a fan of games no matter what the console, including Steam. RPGs, fighting, and action/adventure are my fortes. Give me a great story and characters any day. Call of Duty? I guess, if that's your thing. Classic Final Fantasy and Zelda? Now you're cookin' with gas!

When I'm not gaming, I like culinary adventures, moviegoing, and the Intert00bz. Ask me about my favorite web shows! I can get down on some anime, my favorite sports are boxing and baseball, and I can even get in tune with that parapsychological vibe, even though it's well-known and well-documented I'm kinda a pansy with horror stuff. (I think they get a kick out of assigning me those games for review.)

I'm also single and available, but sorry gamer girls, I play with joysticks.
