Ico and Shadow Of The Colossus director Fumito Ueda has left Sony, according to reports, and is finishing development of the long-awaited PlayStation 3 exclusive The Last Guardian as a freelancer.

In April, Ueda said the game had been delayed until 2012 "to provide more challenging and better quality of content to users." More >
