Okami is one of my favorite PS2 games. The graphics are beautiful, there is great depth of story, the combat system is easy but doesn't get old, and the soundtrack is rich and varied. Brush techniques are learned as the story progresses, kind of like spells. Many compare the game to the Legend of Zelda, as Okami has much in common with the 3D Zelda games. Who else has played Okami?
I would've if I had PS2. I've seen some of it and it looks godly (pun intended), I wish I get a chance to play through it some day
Okami is just BEGGING for a sequel on the Wii. It fits in perfectly with any other Japanese game for the Wii.
Here are some pictures from actual gameplay: Shinshu field outside the starting village [img width=635 height=507]http://holdingcell.net/wp-content/uploads/2006/10/okami-001.jpg[/img] One of the first boss fights [img width=430 height=323]http://ps2media.gamespy.com/ps2/image/article/708/708264/okami-20060512102010492.jpg[/img] The use of the Celestial Brush [img width=670 height=502]http://www.siliconera.com/ps2/okami/060425s3.jpg[/img] Agata Forest [img width=640 height=448]http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d159/Light_Jak/Okami%20Thread/okami-20060404024038957.jpg[/img] One of the human characters in Sei An City [img width=300 height=234]http://www.bradygames.com/content/downloads/walkthroughs/okami/okami_11.jpg[/img] Introduction of Waka, one of the more mysterious characters [img width=670 height=512]http://costa.kofeina.net/uploads/soft/okami-screen01.jpg[/img] A cursed zone, an area made evil by demons [img width=670 height=502]http://www.siliconera.com/ps2/okami/060425s7.jpg[/img]
Watch some trailers or movies on youtube, it looks nothing like naruto Wink BUMP: Is there going to be Okami on Wii?
Those rumors were confirmed a while ago. According to Wikipedia, the current release date for Okami on the Wii in North America is March 25, 2008. For Japan and Europe, the release is Q2, 2008. An article confirming Okami for the Wii dating back to last October... http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=85578 I am doubtful as to whether or not I will buy the Wii version, since I already have it for PS2--though I don't actually have a PS2... Hm.
This is a very good game, i was able to beat the game last year, it was very good and using different weapons are awesome
