They probably need a bit more time to iron out the kinks.

Every time this thread appears, I keep on thinking that the once mighty formerly-Manchester-based paper has finally run out of cash.

Even more time! People will say that they're "tired of waiting for you".

An Update on The Last Guardian

The Last Guardian development team is fast approaching major milestones in production and has made the tough decision to delay the release of The Last Guardian a few weeks. The Last Guardian will launch on December 6, 2016.

Fumito Ueda, gen DESIGN and JAPAN Studio have a wonderful vision for The Last Guardian’s touching, emotional journey of friendship and trust, and we want to deliver the most polished experience possible for our fans who have supported us for so long. A delay is a difficult decision, particularly with this game, but we have encountered more bugs than anticipated while in the final stages of development. To ensure that The Last Guardian delivers on the experience that the game’s creators have envisioned, we need to take the extra time to work on those issues.

Our development continues to push itself to the fullest and we look forward to revealing new content toward launch.

We appreciate your continued support.

I don't think it's ever going to come out at all.

He's saying on Twitter that he doesn't mind delays for "polish". I keep saying "Duke Nukem Forever" at him.

ZOMG!

Apparently early access says it's really not very good at all

Can the Last Guardian Live Up To Expectations?

The short answer, before I lead you on any further, is yes.

I ain't reading anymore than that.

I am excited for this, mostly because of Saturnalian. Maybe I will ask for it for Christmas 2017 when I have worked my way through my existing games and it's not 8 million Euros

Valve haven't made games themselves in aeons. The Portal and L4D teams were assimilated from elsewhere. Half-Life 2 might have been their last game, in 2004 (sub please check).

Well, except that those teams then grew due to existing valve people joining the effort.

Portal 2 (the last full game I remember them releasing was quite long time ago. Before The first beexbq at any rate. )

You've forgotten about Dota 2.

Is not what I have said factually correct then? *

(I did post this after checking out the Wikipedia page on valve releases, saw dota 2, but rather disregarded it for much the same reason I discounted the lab. Which may or not be fair, given its something I've never really noticed or paid much attention to. )

DOTA is a stupid game that appears to be designed so weirdos can shout abuse at each other, so doesn't count.

Anyway, Half-Life 3 is the last of the great 'vaporware all-stars' Prey came out, Duke Nukem Forever came out, The Last Guardian is about to come out.

Apparently 8-12 hours long.

I'll probably end up devouring it in a single session.

Apparently, reviewers have already gotten the game and the review embargo lifts on Monday, so I'll wait for that, and if there are no catastrophic shortcomings, I'll preorder at that point, I think.

As it's all in Japanese, I'm going to translate it for you:

Our long awaited latest work, about a boy and an eagle engaging in mad bondage, is finally released

残念、糞だ

Unfortunately, It is crap.

That text does not appear in the video.

I missed out the part that says

『ICO』
『ワンダと巨象』に続く
新たな物語ー

because I imagine you could guess what that says... (Ico and (shadow of the colossus - Translation consistency Ed) are continued with [our] new story) which is then continued with the part I had above.

(Oh, and by the way ronchi = launch. And declined makes no sense. It's refering to the game, not the trailer, and is clearly the wrong translation of 控える. See, this is why you need me to translate stuff.)
