The Last Guardian Is Absolutely The Most Exciting Game In Production Right Now.

There's a case for LittleBigPlanet, Uncharted and Gran Turismo — all of which are stunning, but parallel in some way. But Fumito Ueda's Team ICO possess a brilliance unmatched across the industry. When Team ICO announce a game, the industry listens.

The Last Guardian may not be a commercial hit; but it could end up being the most important PlayStation 3 game because it offers identity to the platform. And that's why the game's Holiday 2011 release date is extremely important.

Sure, there's going to be a long wait ahead. But can anyone argue it's not going to be worth it?

Check out the new trailer after the jump and weep at the imagination.
