MGS5 PSP & Torico Interviews
The Last Guardian interview can be found here. One of the questions asked by the journalist to Ueda is ‘what is the name Trico stand for?’. Ueda answers “Torico can mean, to be charmed or taken captive, Child (ko) of Bird (tori), Bird-Cat (tori-neko). Apart from the cuteness of creatures, we also wanted to imply the wildness of the animal too in the title.”
In another interview, Kojima also mentions something interesting about the teaser site that was up for E3. He says that what looks like “5″ or “S” is 巳 – the kanji for Snake :) and because it looked like “e” too, they figured it’ll do as the E3 teaser site… and the “P” is for PSP. And it’s going to be based this time in Costa Rica. The full interview can be found here. (Metal Gear Arcade – how cool?)
Steam was advertising, but also, funny trailer. Made me sign up for a Beta.
