    A masterpiece

    Some of the controls where not that good, but the story was so good. This is one of few games I've ever cried to.

    Extremely frustrating

    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.

    A PS2 game that disguised itself as a PS3 game release on PS4

    I am a huge fan of the The Shadow Of The Colossus and consider it as one of the best games ever so my hopes were really high for this game considering it was released by the same developer but what I played was a technically bankrupt game with the worst AI I have ever seen, the game is so dated that it actually put a lot of PS2 games to shame, the only positive thing is the lore but that is not enough to make a good video game, this game should have been a movie when I can sit back and enjoy the rather interesting story not a video game with most lacking and frustrating GAMEPLAY I have ever witnessed.5/10.

    A Flawed But Great Game

    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.

    Pushing the boundaries of the technology

    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.
