Sonyâ€™s Yoshida: Team Ico Has Something â€œReally, Really Good on the Wayâ€

Fork · Aug 3, 2008

The new head of Sony Computer Entertainment Shuhei Yoshida said, in an interview with the Official PlayStation Magazine, that Team Ico has something “really, really good on the way.”

The full quote:

“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.”

It's good to know the Ico team has somethin' up their sleeves. Gotta love their games. Hopefully it won't be 4 years till we see some more info 'bout what this project is.

Team ICO makes the best games. I'm really excited for this new one. I wonder if this will have any subtle connections to ICO and SotC, like how SotC had some to ICO.
