Fumito Ueda is an esteemed Japanese game designer behind iconic PlayStation exclusives like Shadow of the Colossus, Ico, and The Last Guardian. Even though he has only directed three video games in his entire career, his work has been widely considered some of the best the gaming medium has to offer. Ico, Ueda's directorial debut and his first-ever collaborative effort with Sony Interactive Entertainment, inspired many famous developers in the gaming industry. The same could be said for Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian, both of which became instant cult classics.
