Okami on ps2 very awesome.

Played all day today, very awesome, the whole caligraphy thing is quite fun and the caligraphy rendering looks nifty. Also boss battles are pretty nuts, this game reminds me a lot of zelda on the n64 in terms of gameplay as well as story, side quests and exploration.

I've heard good things about Okami. Frankly I am considering buying a PS2 just to play this game.

Reading about Okami makes me very happy I recently bought myself a ps2 /images/graemlins/smile.gif. It won't be out in europe til february though /images/graemlins/frown.gif

Amusing charming zelda clone. Well worth buying a ps2 for or getting a swapdisk and importing it to play it.

Hardly anything is wrong with it. The QTE's are handled well and the random battles can be mostly avoided(if you get caught they usually only last 10-15 secs).

I'm about halfway through at the moment and I've only been stuck once. It isn't a hard game to play and I prefer that. A pleasant adventure romp over a anal rpg is just my cup of tea.

Best Zelda game I've played since the last Zelda game.

Seriously - if they only changed about a dozen very small things, they could have released it as a Zelda game and no-one would be the wiser. It has that level of polish and it nearly identical in every other way. I could list out the similarities, but I don't have the time. Play it yourself!

If I had money to throw at it I'd import it right now. But I just got Earth Defence Force 2 (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6956000047436272418&hl=en) and am waiting for Rockman ZX. Maybe I'll have time when it comes out here.

I picked it up last week and I have to say it's sucked me into its world and hasn’t let me go yet, its very reminiscent of The Shadow of Colossus that way. Capcom is definitely on a roll!

PS: I can’t wait for Lost Planet!

Amazing game. Just completed it. Apart from a few iffy design choices later on in the game (They aren't bad. I would have just done them in a different way), and issues general to gaming(money for killing, having to buy skills) and it being a bit too long for me(~8-10 hours too long), it's a near perfect game.

Just ordered the jap version, the soundtrack and the art book for 77£. mmm.

And my pointless stats because I'm sad
Playtime: 74:47:12 (it was left on overnight a few times and idle during the day. (You are ment to stop the game clock when the player is in the menu/pausing. Silly devs.))
Days Passed: 65
Saves: 100
Deaths: 0
Enemies Defeated: 469
Money: 2,944,439
Demon Fangs: 9 (kept forgetting about them)
Praise Earned: 3637

Final boss is really well designed.
