Are video games art? This fundamental question has fuelled debates for years, and the conversation continues today. While the medium's cultural value is undeniable, this topic nevertheless evokes strong opinions.

Among the games at the centre of this debate, one trilogy in particular stands out, created by Japanese designer Fumito Ueda. His creative approach, offering something that didn't yet exist in other games, set the road map for each of his works: ICO, Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian.

These three works share the same aesthetic, the same video game design philosophy, and even the same universe. Above all, these three works give us a look at the man behind them and his obsession: to offer a different perspective on video games.

Within this book, the author Damien Mecheri explore these three games, their development, their story, their music and their game design, and tends to approach the debate about the art of video games with fresh perspectives, relying on several interviews from various creators such as Sam Barlow (Her Story), Jenova Chen (Journey) and Steve Gaynor (Gone Home).

Long lost LOVE!
This is my absolute favorite outdoor tanning product so far! I purchased this for the first time during a vacation out of state and fell in love with the formula. It is a dry oil, so your skin is left smooth and silky - not sticky or slick. There is no SPF, so I do recommend using this when you've already developed a good base tan. I find that it is not as heavy feeling as similar formulas with SPF. The fragrance is the classic tropical Australian Gold scent that smells just as good hours after applying and is non-offensive. There are instant natural bronzers in this product thanks to the black walnut shell extract which provides a great glow after applying. The formula also boasts a "Colorboost Maximizer to speed up the tanning process. One of the ingredients: Tyrosine, is responsible for this claim. Tyrosine is an amino acid that melanin (responsible for the pigment of your skin) is made from. The formula also states melanin as an ingredient so the idea is to boost your skins natural ability to produce melanin, which is then darkened by your skin's reaction to UV Rays, thus speeding up your tan. Carrot root extract is another ingredient which is a great antioxidant for skin protection - and Vitamin E is obviously fabulous for skin. The best part: NO MINERAL OIL - so your skin can breathe and soak up nutrients, NOT pore clogging oils! Obviously this isn't a miracle product - but what it is is an affordable, reasonable outdoor tanning product that had some thought put into its formula for your skin's benefit. I believe it does boost my skin's natural ability to pick up color from the sun. And the light formula and great scent doesn't hurt! I absolutely can NOT find this product locally, so when I ran out of my first bottle I was so happy to find it on Amazon. Worth a try if you're looking for a reliable LIGHT outdoor tanning product that smells great!

Best bronzing sunscreen ever!
I have been using this for 5+ years and highly recommend it. It goes on easy, doesn’t leave streaks or a greasy film, smells so good. I apply when doing yard work, sitting by the pool, attending outdoor activities etc. and have always get a beautiful bronze tan.

Mom tested for 30+ years
1st I would like to clarify about the comments on the sprayer not working, I see the confusion and it works just fine u have to twist the nozzle a few times in no specific way. There are no instructions but just play w it eventually it'll spray The product itself is great for a little extra sun. It smells good, pleasant and not over bearing. Its oily but once you run it in it u have no idea it's on. I actually will put on too much cuz I prefer to know its on my skin. I have a nice even tan, my palms arnt tanned *idk if thats a common issue for things like this but I was worried about that and in case anyone else is, the answer is no* Love it, I always remember seeing this in my moms bathroom or when we go to the beach so I tried it. She's a sun God and at 56 has very nice skin. Not like a leather couch at all. She's always had very soft beautiful skin.
