5 out of 5 stars Okami review   November 17, 2008
This is a great game, really enjoyed it. The wii pointing controls during the magic brush moments is difficult to use though.


4 out of 5 stars Okami: PS2 vs Wii   November 16, 2008

Okami is a wonderful game and reminiscent of games such as Zelda. A vibrant and visually unique game set in a world seemingly pulled out of a painting. You play as the white wolf Amaterasu, a reincarnation of the sun goddess, and travel across the land of Nippon "purifying" locations of demons and a plague curse.

Another aspect I love about this game is the dialogue. Unlike most Japanese games that need translating from Japanese to English, the dialogue in this game is funny and amusing (at least I think so).

If you have this game for PS2 already and are happy with it I would say the Wii version isn't worth getting. The biggest different between the Wii version of this game from the PS2 version is the use of the Wii-mote to draw your brush strokes. What I had found from playing both versions is that the brush strokes are harder to draw accurately on the Wii version. I guess that would seem surprising to most, being that the cool part of the Wii version was the drawing aspect of the game. I suppose with practice this wouldn't be much of a problem but from experience, if you have the PS2 version, just stick with it.

I bought this game for my son, a creative, somewhat non-violent (although Halo-loving), D&D playing 14-year old. He loves it to death and for good reason: it is absolutely the most beautiful, wonderful game we've ever seen. The professional reviews say it better than I could, but really there's no substitute for seeing it.

I don't know how much I'll play it because, frankly, I like to run around and shoot stuff and this game has a lot more planning/figuring and less "conflict." And the wolf fights stuff like plants -- so it's family-friendly, too.

Mostly it's beautiful. I watch the kid play without really knowing what's going on and that's just fine with me.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic!   September 13, 2008

I cannot believe I missed this game the first time around. I rented this game and after one day of playing, realized I must buy it instead! I'm tired of all the games being short enough to beat in the 5 days I can rent the game for. Finally, there's a new game that is taking me on an adventure and is beautifully created as well.

The game is very similar, mission-wise, to the Zelda series. There's the monsters you fight and side-quest to take, skills to learn, people to talk to, towns to help out, etc.

I'm still playing this game (haven't beat it yet!) and it's just fantastic. I haven't have any problems described in other reviews about the game not recognizing brush techniques, etc. I think maybe there's just a learning curve and you have to make sure your sensor is positioned right and is clean too!
