Quick quotes – Last Guardian progress “business as usual”
If last week’s quote from the head of PlayStation software development, Scott Rhode, wasn’t enough to put your mind at ease with regard to highly anticipated and in-no-way-canned Sony title, The Last Guardian, here’s another. This time it’s from the beautiful mind that brought us Ico, Shadow of the Colossus and is helping to (eventually) bring us The Last Guardian, the man himself, Fumito Ueda, who told Kotaku that work is indeed coming along on the title, “It’s been business as usual,” he said. “The only things that’ve really changed are the terms of my contract.”
So, there you have it. What more could you possibly want? Oh, you want the actual game? Oh. Right.
