The Last Guardian

Amidst the bad controls and the irritating camera, The Last Guardian is still a remarkably enjoyable game. It's charming, sweet, and emotional. It's a bit tame to earn that T rating as well, excluding the blood. I would recommend this game to people. Be warned: The. Camera. Sucks. I'd give it a 9/10.

The level designs, lighting, puzzles and plot are a masterpiece in their own right, but in doing so the game clearly pushes the boundaries of the technology required a little to far.

This title not only gives you an AI companion that walks alongside you on your journey, but actually relies upon it to complete most of the puzzles. Any video game with an AI companion suffers from the issue of the Artificial intelligence falling far behind the flexible and rational intelligence that is expected, however, whilst it can be slightly frustrating the companion in this game is years ahead of other titles, it looks and acts in a rational manner and its animations are flexible enough to adapt to nearly all scenarios. Any issues can be overlooked but if the companion were another humanoid rather than an animal it would be more obvious. In this respect, when the boy your are playing as becomes unresponsive or performs an unintended action, it is far more frustrating. Similarly, although the camera follows your avatar without player control you are left to suffer some horrible and confusing angles at times.

If your are a fan of Fumito Ueda or linear-puzzle games then this is a must play game, if however, you are looking for fast paced action games then this is not the game for you.

Team Ico seemed to have read the reviews for Shadow of the Colossus and made everything more extreme. The design and architecture was made much bigger than before! But the animal companion was made much more important and uncooperative than before! Whatever they were aiming for, it didn't work. Not worth the wait nor the frustration.

I enjoy what story is in this game. It has a lot of heart and emotions involved which make up a good experience. The only problem (and it's a major problem) is that it's too hard to control Trico! You will tell him to jump one way and he will jump a completely different way. It makes playing the game so irritating/frustrating and a lot of times I will get exhausted and stop playing because it would take too long for Trico to do what you want. I want to continue on playing the game because I want to know what happens to the characters but it is extremely difficult to want to stick around and play it when it takes me an hour to get out of a room when it should only take 10 minutes.

Great game. Beginning of the game i dont have good opinion on this , after playing it,it is one of the greatest game. Animal and kid in the game move as realistic as. Climax you feel the relation between them.
