The Shattered Star

When a game sees such a long & troubled development like TLG did, it would be natural to have worries going in, thinking what the finished product would be like and whether it could ever live up to the amount of hype that has surrounded it for all of this time. I never really did myself (have any concerns) but I'm happy to say that for me, it most certainly did live up to the hype and was a worthy spiritual successor to both Ico and Shadow of the Colossus. There were a couple of moments which I found frustrating and I'd be lying if I said there weren't, but it was such a wonderful & special experience that (much like Ico & SotC) even a few days after completing, I'm still thinking about it. If you're a fan of Ueda's work (it would be hard not to be as I & many others would regard SotC & Ico as two of the greatest games of all time, especially the former), you owe it to yourself to play TLG if you have a PS4 to play it on. What a game.

(And it should go without saying that if you've never experienced the beauty of a Team Ico/Ueda game to begin with, you need to go & play Ico & Shadow of the Colossus, like I recently recommend for Anny to do. Very special games which every gamer should experience at least once imo!}
