A statement released by Naughty Dog elaborates on the "influence" that Ico and its relatives has on the next installment in the Uncharted series. The article describes possibilities as to what ND is alluding to and covers every nook and cranny that Ico has under its belt in the ways of story telling, gameplay, and the extreme lack of dialogue. The Uncharted characters are known for being very surreal with their dialogue, bodily movements, appearance and personalities. I trust the company to make another kickass installment in the series, but if they let the game influence the next Uncharted too much, it'll definitely be a step backward.
This could be big news, because taken at face value this could mean a complete departure for the Uncharted series. If they try to imitate Ico’s style literally, and take out most of the voice acting and sarcastic humor, and instead go for more heavy symbolism, this would completely change the feel of playing an Uncharted game.
