Dec 6, 2016Indeed a really good and emotional game. But a game for people with a soul and passion for great a great story. Gamers that think that frame rate and few technical issues are the most important thing maybe don't like every aspect of the game, but even in theses camps, The Last Guardian is already another Playstation legend. Play it.

Dec 7, 2016There are too many games that are mechanical, rigid, repetitive and boring.
This is different. This is Trico, an organic and truly lifelike creature that make you wholeheatedly invest your emotions in and care about. This is the true meaning of immersion and fantasy.
No control or camera flaw could justify you not living this lifetime experience of a game. -

Feb 4, 2017This game is just pure magic. It has an amazing atmosphere. And the relationship between Trico and the boy is enjoyable. Good story and graphics. Must have.
-
Dec 8, 2016Trico is the best animated creature being ever created in a video game. A story that touches the heart and an impressive atmosphere. The camera and framerate are minor problems in this masterpiece that no one can miss. Best Team ICO game.

Dec 6, 2016The ten year prophecy has come true-- The Last Guardian is finally here. Haven't finished it yet, but if you like Shadow of the Colossus and Ico, don't think twice, just buy the game. A true exhibition of the artistic merit of games and the emotional response they can evince.

Dec 11, 2016Breathtaking. Beautiful. Ethereal. Emotive. Consistent. Fantastic. Mythical. Wondrous. Authentic. Emphatic. Immersive. Engaging.
Just a few words that reflect my experience of traversing through The Last Guardian. A genuine empathetic experience like no other - seriously.
A crowning achievement in vision, design and execution. -
Dec 18, 2016Beautiful. Amazing. Masterpiece. Must have. Trico is such a wonderful creature, he was a bit intimidating at the beginnin, but then he grows in me. The ending makes my eyes wet.

Dec 11, 2016Just finished it. Astonishing and best game I've played this year. I was expecting to be frustrated by Trico's AI based on what I'd heard but other than getting stuck at one point (which wasn't due to Trico rather my getting a puzzle wrong) I had no issues. Trico is the most astonishing game creation I've ever witnessed. If you have a bit of soul you'll love this. Highly recommended.

Dec 7, 2016This game is Amazing! I can't wait to play through it again this weekend! You won't regret the purchase, this is game of the year material and it's a shame it is only 15 hours long. But there's still a lot more to do that I didn't do my first playthrough.

Dec 6, 2016Amazing game! Interesting story, charming graphics, cool animations and tons of emotions... this is The Last Guardian! This unique game! If you like ICO and Shadow of the Collossus - buy The Last Guardian, you will love this game.
-
Apr 6, 2020The last guardian is made for everyone. Its a unique experience never saw before in my long game road (aprox. 30 years). This game shows how do a immersive storytelling with normal graphics and envirorment can did!.
This game's has the same camera and gameplay issues likewise entire Ico series but the relationship of yourself and the creature's awesome!
Great game! -
Dec 6, 2016It was a completely absorbing game that I just did not wish to stop playing. Even when I took the occasional break, my thoughts seemed to always drift back to this fantasy world. If you've played and enjoyed ICO and Shadow of the Colossus then the Last Guardian will not disappoint.
-
Dec 7, 2016This is a game for few people...go play cod instead..i guess the people giving 0 never played Ico or SotC..the game sure has its problem with slme mechanics..but it s nothing in front of this masterpiece of story e realtionship between the two
-
Dec 12, 2016Aside from some minor camera and AI issues, The Last Guardian is the game you've been waiting for. If you've been following this project, the outcome won't disappoint you, and if you haven't, you can discover a beautiful game that is a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Dec 11, 2016one of the best games that could satisfy the expectations
worthed every penny for it
just loved it till the end
and i believe 84 is not what this game deserve from critics -
Dec 18, 2016This game like Ico and Shadow of the colossus take my tears and my heart. Games who gives these emotions are rares. The game has some technichal issues but it's a masterpiece anyway.
Thank you Fumito and developpers. -
Dec 6, 2016This game takes some of the best elements from Ico and SoTC and turns them into it's own unique game. If you really have the patience to deal with Toriko (Trico), this might be the best adventure game you would play this year or even this generation yet!
-
Dec 6, 2016Probably the most moving game I played all year. The controls are a little clunky and the camera frustrating, but I could overlook these minor annoyances. Felt like I was playing a game from past. Not a bad feel.

Feb 10, 2017This game is a true masterpiece! That ending really got me! Had to hug my dog really hard, this game made me realize how much I love him! The controls are a bit annoying sometimes, but the whole experiences is a blast! A very story driven game, with really smart puzzles and very intriguing characters! Another masterpiece from Team ICO!
-
Jan 28, 2017A Wonderfull, visually stunning and emotional adventure, one of the greatest games I've played in my 30 years.
You haven't ever experienced something like this.
A vacation from the shooters overdose. -
Dec 6, 2016I've been waiting a long time for this game, the game teaches you the real meaning of the word RESPECT, great game, exceeded my expectations ... thanks UEDA and team for this masterpiece...
-
Dec 27, 2016This game is not perfect, but it's a masterclass piece of entertainment that will rattle you to your core. I laughed, I screamed, I cried. The boy's relationship with Trico is best understood by feelings, not words, like the best pieces of cinema that I love. Well worth the wait.

Dec 15, 2016Es el juego más bonito que he jugado nunca, me gustan muchísimo este tipo de juegos como Brother, pero este The Last Guardian supera a todos, es increíble como se mueve Trico, ¡¡está ahi, es real!!. Tiene sus errores como los gráficos que no son punteros y bajada de fps, pero toda la magia que desprende eclipsa todo lo demás.
Si no te gustan estos juegos....lo verás como un bodrio. -

Dec 6, 2016An excellent game, created for this proposal, a mechanic inherited from its previous relatives, undoubtedly a great, moving story. You feel connected to the plot and the empathy for the characters and something very wonderful to happen.
-
Mar 1, 2017Melhor experiência até hoje num jogo, uma obra prima sem duvidas, trilha sonora impecável, relação de amizade entre o trico e o garoto torna a experiência única.
-
Dec 12, 2016No muchos juegos se arriesgan a introducir mecánicas incomodas para trasmitir una realidad, lo cual lo combiérte en un juego brillante, y aunque si que es cierto que tiene momentos(algunas cinemáticas) donde podrían haber aprovechado para mostrar nuevas mecánicas y darle mas inmersión el resto de apartados son sublimes perfectamente medidos como una gran orquesta que cierra esta trilogia
-
Dec 6, 2016O que falar do jogo,mesmo tendo os graficos datados são belos,a historia impecavel demais parece que é comparavel com muitos outros e complementa a historia de ico e sotc,trilha sonora na minha opnião a melhor de todos os tempos nos jogos e para quem gosta do genero vale muito apena obrigatorio

Dec 8, 2016The last guardian chega como mais uma obra de arte do mesmo criador de shadow of the colossus e ico e tambem mais um grande exclusivo do ps4 que so enriquece sua biblioteca de grandes jogos exclusivos , merece ser conferido e apreciado por todos!
-
Jan 8, 2018Oh Gosh, this game is a masterpiece! I have never felt so emotional over a game before that after completing it - I was empty for a while. Gameplay is a little bit wobbly, FPS is low but I can completely forgive, that didn't ruin my experience at all.
Definitely one of the top games for me. -

The story is emotional. You go through different kinds of challenge with your friend Trico.
The end is impressive. -
Dec 6, 2016Amazing story, Vibe and the whole experience.
If you like the old games, you will love this. It have the ICO vibe and many elemtents from shahow of the collesus. Don't expect a game on rails, with many explotions. -

Dec 6, 2016What a masterpiece seriously a must buy if you have a ps4, i didnt let the clunky controls bother me much nor the camera, and this is my first game out of the series, it was fun, emotional, rollercoaster.

Dec 6, 2016Es un gran juego que no necesita los mejores gráficos para ser increíble, solo con su historia y como los personajes se ayudan a avanzar sobre los obstáculos

-
Dec 6, 2016If you loved ICO and Shadow of the colossus, you would love this. Fumito Ueda's games are very unique and are in a league of their own. Not a game for everyone, just the core fans.
-
Dec 6, 2016Excelent, it is diferent, not stupid violence. If i could describe in one word this game, I would say "ART". If you want a call of duty or Gears of war, this is not your game. Recomiendo totalmente el juego.

Dec 8, 2016Emotional masterpiece. Reminded me of the emotion I felt playing Journey, but this had a lot more emotion in it. I would say I WAS attached to Trico, but in reality, I still am. Japan Studios, I applaud you. The gameplay was fun and got more complex the further in you got. The fluidity of the game and the interactions with Trico really made the game what it is: a game to remember.

-
Dec 11, 2016A masterpiece! 10/10 even despite the camera & control issues. One of the best video games ever made, if not the best video game ever! Trico is one of the best video game characters ever! Feels like you're playing a movie! You will fall in love with Trico!
-
Dec 11, 2016The game is incredible, Trico has an awesome AI, I really love the game, worth the wait, It has a very interesting story and full of emotions, it has very negative reviews because the game DEFINITELY is not for everyone. If you like different games The Last Guardian you may like it.
-
Dec 12, 2016Simply amazing...... It has minor technical flaws, but the game is just genious, an incredible experience.... people giving it bad reviews are just spoiled,...... having perfect camera and controls is something so recent in games, you wouldn't believe how many gems you'll miss if you care too much for this.....
Play the game people! You won't regret! -

Mar 8, 2017After 7 years in what seems to be development hell, Team Ico finally introduces us to the majestic Trico and its heartfelt relationship with a young protagonist. While the long development cycle does show its age in certain parts up to a point of some frustration. The experience as a whole is one of the most unique ever.
-
Feb 10, 2017The Last guardian is indeed suffering from some technical and control input issues, but its warm, beautiful adventure filled with countless touching moments is something we’ll never forget for the rest of our lives. The Last Guardian is not just a game, it’s an absolute work of art.
-
Edge MagazineFeb 8, 2017The Last Guardian doesn't just live up to its forebears' legacy, it goes further. Despite the callbacks to Fumito Ueda's previous works, it is a unique creation. Outside of indie experiments, we don't get to say that about modern videogames often enough.
