Eurogamer (http://www.eurogamer.net) has posted a great interview with Kenji Kaido - creator of ICO and Shadow of the Colossus.

Eurogamer: The themes of isolation and sadness seem to prevail in both ICO and Shadow of the Colossus - was that deliberate?
Kenji Kaido: The sadness was focussed - in ICO's case, but in terms of Colossus, when you're riding around in the field, maybe that's where you get your isolation. But when you're fighting against the colossus there are similar feelings. Maybe after defeating each colossus, that might make you feel sad, but once you finish the whole game then you get a better picture of the feelings.
I think I just made Kelegacy's day!
I can't wait to see what Kenji's team has in store for the next generation.
