The Last Guardian Gameplay Finally Revealed...and It's a Shooter? - Satire

"For those who were so distraught at the lack of Last Guardian-ness at Sony’s E3 Press Conference, you are finally about to get some good news. After being announced in 2009, The Last Guardian has finally seen the light of day, and after meeting in a secret location, taking a blood oath, and selling my kidney, Sony allowed me to get the first peek at what Team Ico has been working on." | Explosion.com

LMAO

[Axios2]

ROFL

[xHeavYx]

This looks fake, I'm sure we'll see a "TLG is not a shooter" article soon.
Besides, of all reputable websites, this guy gets a first look?
Nevermind,I just saw that this was entered as opinion piece instead of news, great clickbait though

[pedrof93]

This is satire for thosr who are wondering.

[cleft5]

Brilliant read, I needed a laugh today.

[DrJones]

"Shooters are told from the perspective of someone killing thousands of people, it is important that these mass murderers seem grounded and honest."

Lol

@xHeavYx

'This looks fake'

[RyuCloudStrife]

It's a funny piece but unfortunately the satire in the headline spoiled it for me.

[Pro Racer]

So TLG has been turned into the the Adventures of Commander McKillan and his giant fire-breathing, laser-shooting, shark-finned wolf-mount...

Day 1 purchase for me!

[bigbic]

I would take anything at this point, I hope they say something soon.

[Cam977]

This is obviously satirical... Great read!

[Edsword]

This is great news, I really wanted more bro shooters. However if it's from team ICO, it will likely only have 6 things to shoot in the entire game.

[Back-to-Back]

If this game doesnt have killstreaks it will fail...

[FanboyKilla]

Lmao look how many sony fans came running. Lol their eyes got big and then...... Lol they need something soooo bad to reasure themselves. Great article though.

[bigbic]

And just as many X1 fans came running as well, wonder why. lmao

[KingKelloggTheWH]

This...just...the person who wrote this put a lot of time into it..

[No_Limit]

LMFAO, that was pretty funny, I might add.

Even Sony CEO himself weigh in on twitter to comment one the status of the last Guardian.

CEO Kaz Hirai ‏@KazHiraiCEO

"The Last Guardian has not been cancelled. You can’t cancel a game that never really existed"
https://twitter.com/KazHira...

/S

[No_Limit]

Clearly the people missed the "/S" for Sarcasm. Hoping The Last Guardian will make an appearance at this year's TGS and is now officially on PS4.

[Software_Lover]

Some people just can't take a joke.

[Freedomland]

They can take a joke, but can't take piss poor attempt on a joke.

[FastRedPonyCar]

That's a joke twitter account. It's not really Kaz (though it would be hilarious if it really were him)

[ibrake4naps]

Was hoping it would be a shooter!

[Patrick_pk44]

Please stop.

[ibrake4naps]

Jk duh

[LightofDarkness]

This is humour, not opinion piece.

[mydyingparadiselost]

This is so dumb, if the Last Guardian is a shooter then the Wolf head laser shooting guardian should be held in your hands and NOT a mount you ride. This game might as well now be a mech shooter and will fail cause that's too anime to be popular....

[DoomeDx]

Read the freaking article before posting comments :/

[mydyingparadiselost]

I did, the comment is a joke based on the content of the article, which is hilarious by the way. I'll break it down for you if you'd like....

[KwietStorm_BLM]

You couldn't possibly have thought he was serious with a comment like that..

[ScottyHoss]

I ROFL'd at your joke.

/S

[mydyingparadiselost]

I never said it was a GOOD joke

[VealParmHero]

light-gun accessories!?

[Mr_Writer85]

I would suggest someone tell this person to stick to writing about facts.

As his made up joke stories are awful.

A waste of Internet.

[punctualdork]

No one forced you to read it.

[Dubaman]

Yeah, because we ALL know the quality of an article before actually reading it.

/s

[Mr_Writer85]

And yet had a not read it I would of not been able to make a fair judgement.

I read it, didn't like it so made my opinion heard.

Gotta love freedom of speech :)

[KingMe42]

A few comments down you say you love freedom of speech. Yet on your fist comment you pretty much tell the guy to stop writing what he wants to write.

What do you think that makes you look like? Hint it starts similar to hippopotamus and ends similar to district.

[Mr_Writer85]

No I actually said some one should suggest he sticks to writing news.

A suggestion can be ignored can it not? Show how would suggesting something effect his right to exercise his freedom of speech?

Please I'd love to know...

[SoulSercher620]

Lol this was actually kinda funny.

Already you can tell there's some people in here that don't have a sense of humor.

[JetsFool3500]

Whats the hype surrounding this game when it hasnt even had any gameplay shown & its been in development hell since forever

[Taislin]

It´s from the creators of ICO, and Showdow of the Colossus, two of the finest PS2 games, and games in general, to be produced.

[JetsFool3500]

Ok thanks I thought it was some random game everybody was hyping

[Studio-YaMi]

It actually HAD some gameplay footage when it was announced for the PS3 couple years ago,youtube it.

Not to mention the fact that it's made by the guy who made ICO & SoTC(SoTC being one of the best games for the PS2) pretty much makes everyone hyped for the game.

[mixelon]

Lol i have no idea how people are disagreeing about the gameplay. It wasn't an insignificant amount of it either!

[sungin]

The Last Guardian aka call of duty

[younglj01]

Lol if this article make it too Neogaf they would sh1t bricks on an epic level...

[vikingland1]

That was a funny read.

[Ocsta]

Lawl!

[uth11]

haha

great commentary on the state of the industry

[Tresyn10]

I read two paragraphs and stopped, I can understand and appreciate a little humor and sarcasm here and there but I would like some details even if it's in the slightest, I've.... Rephrase, we've waited too long for this game, come on Sony give us something real, please!!!

[Activemessiah]

Call of Guardians: Last Duty

[NixonMonoxide]

Lol people are still waiting for the Last Guardian?
Almost as pathetic as those who waited, and kept supporting FF VersusXIII hype.

I hope this vaporware meets fanboys' expectations...if it ever materializes.

Gamersheep always fail to call out devs/publishers on Bullshit.

"Well it takezz sew looong, because itz genius!! It'll be a masterpiece when teh gaem comez! Yew'll see!"

[insomnium2]

I get what you are saying but I don't think this topic is serious enough to call people sheep.

[NixonMonoxide]

My statement is not based on the humorous article. Are you kidding me? Gamersheep are definitely responsible for the hilarious state of the industry today. I'll call em out anytime.

Keep waiting on The Last Guardian. Just like Versus XIII...But no wait! It's now XV, so please wait another 5 years lol!

Incomplete games, hilariously paying for a demo from Konami. Hell they should have done that with the idiot masses, for MGS3's Virtuous Mission. Need I go further?

The only reason this Vaporware gets any news, is because Sheep keep supporting. It'll be hilarious if it shows at TGS. "coming soon".

Bend over & open wide. TLG will definitely be worth the wait, and vapor.

[kenshiro100]

Nice mature attitude you have there.

[trenso1]

How was supporting versus pathetic if we knew the game was coming and it still is? As is it now FF15?

[SoulSercher620]

"Gamersheep always fail to call out devs/publishers on Bullshit."

Lol and you have? Show me where you've called out devs and publishers. Because if you haven't wouldn't that make you a gamersheep too?

And no calling BS on here is NOT calling out devs/publishers.

[NixonMonoxide]

Alas, the point floats over your head.
As a matter of fact, I don't run out & support BS like mindless drones similar to yourself. I'm no journalist, don't have a youtube following. However as a simple consumer, I always vote with my wallet, and opinion.

Haven't supported any DRM form. Don't buy paperweights till they actually have games on them. Didn't even purchase titles like Arkham City, till it was in the bargain bin. (LOL locked single player content) I don't jump on hype trains, & certainly don't support vaporware like you do.

It's alright to be upset by my comments. Keep waiting for devs/pubs to drip feed you with sweet nothings. Open wide too. More "DLC", fake "gameplay videos", and "next gen" promises to feed the hive mind.

Purchase ULTRA SF4 - copy/paste edition & an extra copy of MGS V - The opening section.

Both Capcom & Konami clearly need your money.
Bend over & smile.

[Skankinruby]

While its aggravating to get toyed with on a game that's been testing people's patience its sure relieving to see someone else mock the absurdity of most shooters these days and how popular they are.

[Ryan741]

Sony is the new home of the pew pew🍭

[mrpsychoticstalker]

LOL. delayed for another 8 years.... I wanted to play this on my ps 1.

[jmac53]

Sweet! Now Sony can secure even more Xbox dudebros

[TheJacksonRGN]

This is not an opinion piece seeing as it is a joke piece. False advertising.

[wannabe gamer]

this guy has too much free time

[kenshiro100]

Cute, but no.

[QuickdrawMcgraw]

The article could at least be funny...

[Tresyn10]

:)

[Tresyn10]

I'm optimistic so until they announce its cancellation and confirm it, I'll expect the worst and hope for the best, besides, i have a enough to hold me over, Rayman Legends (solid platformer) AC (freedom cry) Dead Nation, Resogun, Strider (next month) SS, WD, BF4 plus many more to come TLoU, Garden Warfare 😉, some gameplay or new footage from The Guardian will be icing on the cake but I'm sure people will have something negative to say then so it's cool, i have nothing against MS, I can't wait to hear more on the new Crackdown, that was my favorite series from last gen, not to mention, GoW but since Cliff left, nothing was the same like Drake's last album, with that being said Sony is where it all started for me, many of us, if not all of us with its first system. Nintendo too but that's another story for my son to tell lol...

[illidari]

*This article was (obviously) written in jest. The Last Guardian is never coming out, I’m sorry I broke your heart. In all sincerity, shooters are great, in fact a shooter was one of my favorite games last year. But if you can’t appreciate the ridiculousness of shooters and think I am a terrible person, please let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

Read the article before raging.

[Kingoftherodeo]

can you imagine if they actually did it like sony just taking a massive dump on everyone

[Ma1nframe]

UGH I got sucked into this one. I normally NEVER read the articles unless it's very interesting but this one tricked me. Should have read the comments first.

Most Gaming Websites these days are all about tricking you to go to their site so that they can get hits and generate advertising revenue.

[Blackcanary]

That's got to be fake but it was funny as hell.

[TheGrimReaper0011]

At this point I wouldn't care if it's an arcade puzzle game
Any news would be welcome

[jambola]

I predict many people will read the title, get pissed off and then comment angrily.

[RexDD]

Even if it's satire, this article is clearly click bait. I'll admit it's kind of funny, but it doesn't deserve to be in the top story's.

[Lacarious]

april fools arleady happened

[PaleMoonDeath]

Haha! I needed that, well played.

[Xyconaut]

This person has way too much time on their hands, almost as much as the amount of stupidity they try to pass as an attempt at humor, if this made your day I can't fathom how much you suck.

[DasTier]

I wish N4G filter out cr*p like this.

Opinion pieces belong on a personal blog, not News 4 Gamers.

[dafegamer]

nice joke article

[lunatic0001]

this article sums up what is wrong with gamers these days...a bunch of single minded, 1080p/60 fps obsessed,bro shooting morons that think nintendo is dumb because they make kiddy games and bitch on forums about why their console of choice is better than anything out there because they need a reason to justify their purchase...damn im getting old and grumpy haha...great article

[uth11]

yup! and they have no sense of humor or tolerance for an article like this :)

[GamePeace]

Toooooo funny ... I'm already laughing in front of my middle-range PC Monitor, reaaaaally funny ... really ... *feels ashamed for the writer of this article*, this is an offence for fans who are waiting nearly a decade for the game, what a bad joke, sorry.

[lfc_4eva]

I've heard Elvis is gonna do the voice overs.

[Killzoner99]

DO NOT BELIEVE THIS
This is a fake. There's no way that The Last Guardian has been turned into a shooter. I hope someone gets in a lot of trouble for this .

[lunatic0001]

how do you even stand to think for a little that this was somehow real...did you even read the article??????

[lfc_4eva]

He's just woke up :-)

[marloc_x]

I hope it's not rendered in that split 1080p crap KZ:Shadowfall pulled..

[ATi_Elite]

If you are having problems determining if this story is FAKE.........Then you may wanna grab a DICTIONARY and look up the word SATIRE.

Nice funny Satirical piece.

[Pabbs_Slick]

I hate crap like this, just because some closed minded idiot has some biased opinion about shooters because his only frame of reference is COD doesn't mean he has to waste time writing cynical trash like this. Regardless of what happens with The Last Guardian, the FPS genre has done a lot for gaming, years before even the first Call of Duty was in the works. There are shitty, annualized, half-assed shooters, and there are masterpieces such as Half Life 2, Bioshock and Fallout: New Vegas, to name a few, it's the same thing for every genre. Drop the shooter hate, it's almost as obnoxious as those PC Master Race douche bags.

[dmonee]

LIES!!!!

[CoyoteHunter]

Wowza, this guy spent a lot of time putting this together. But well worth it :) Great read.

[WitWolfy]

Hope it has a kill streak feature!!!

[CaptainCamper]

I love how this article even gets approved...Especially considering "satire" was not in the title for ages..Oh N4G..I love your illogical approach to logic.

[ZeroAtmin]

Yeah thanks for !@#%$$#@ with my mind asshole like come on at most the Last Guardian should be an innovative coop adventure let alone a fps well that's my opinion
