Tokyo Game Show this year has been pretty significant for Sony’s Team Ico, the creators of classic PlayStation titles Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and the upcoming spectacular-spectacular, The Last Guardian.

Not only have we been able to catch extended looks at the new title, with a release date of 2011 attached, but it’s been officially announced that high definition versions of both of the studio’s previous games will be coming to PS3 next year in a bundle package.

After such exciting reveals and announcements it’s always nice to hear from developers working on these projects, and if there’s one individual we would want to hear from at Team Ico, it would be studio head Fumito Ueda, so this interview that was recently posted on the PlayStation Blog comes as an especially special treat.

The interview tells us more about The Last Guardian and where the development team is currently at with the project, and also reveals Ueda’s thoughts on stereoscopic 3D and its inclusion in the HD remake package.
