Shadow of the Colosus was about a lone, fairly ordinary, desperate man taking on Colossi all by himself. multiple people would kill the spirit of it.

Something like that would totally kill the game, in fact i dont think that it would be SotC anymore, it would be soemthing like World of the Colossus or something like that.
My beat on Team ICO new game is, another original game in the same ICO universe.
Now that i think about it, why not have 2-4 warriors, all go out on these MASSIVE landscapes hunting for giant enemies, working together to take them down, have 4 weak points, goal being all have to jump on a creature and kill it. Not a bad idea. Or imagine facing 4 bosses at one time, all needing to take one each.

That reminds me of the first NICO/Shadow of the Colossus trailer.
Turning SotC into an MMO would *DESTROY* the entire point of the game, and there's no way it could be done without absolutely spitting on the original. I think it's one of the worst ideas anyone has ever come up with.

That would completely defeat the point of the game.

Well, the trailer i posted shows 3-4 people trying to take one down...so it was kinda an idea at one point in time.
Actually, since two of the three who tried to take the Colossus down never actually made it onto it, maybe they didn't really intend to have more than a true one on one experience even at that stage.
Whether they were originally intending on a possible multiplayer experience for SotC early on, the route they took made it infinitely better. It's a landmark of artistic design and storytelling in games, and to cheapen it into an MMO would be a travesty. I have faith they're not incompetent, seeing as they've made two incredible titles in their short history, but I sure hope the rumors aren't true at all.
I do however eagerly look forward to information on whatever they're working on.
