EPIC stuff. Shuhei Yoshida about Team ICO: They have something really, really good on the way

Source: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=329791

"They are working on a title. I started the ICO project. Ueda-san joined my team in Japan as a cinematic animator, but he created a short movie and presented it to me and said, "I want to make this game."

I said, "Yes, let's do it, but you have never made a game. We have to have experienced people do it," so it took a while, recruiting one person at a time. And because Fumito Ueda doesn't compromise, we had to move the development from PSone to PlayStation 2. Then I couldn't complete the game because I moved to the United States.

It took four years and the second game took four years too. So I started calling them the 'Olympic Team.' They haven't released a PS3 title yet - of course not - they'll take four years! But they have something really, really good on the way."

I love when people like the guy in the article state the obvious. No really a big team with 2 great games are currrently working on another game that looks good! Wow, I'm in shock and awe, I'd simply never have known.

Unless a team is known to have split up or be working on side projects it can always be assumed they are working on something, it is their job after all, not like they're just going to take 2 years off work...

Anything these guys make are as big as MGS4. I simply cant wait to see what they have instore for us. I hope they show something off at TGS. Finally its good to finally hear from them. Ico and Shadow of The Colossus still are games ill never forget, 2 very awesome games and very underrated in my opinion. This game should be the one that will have tons of hype behind it, once it is shown in public and the amazing thing is, u can count on team ico to deliver just as we did with Kojima San. I am totally hyped now. Great news. :)

Also off topic, but even Haze looks good when you shrink it that much :P But yay for new Team Ico game! I loved the first one, definitely top 5 of my ps2 games. So beautiful!
