  • Summary: Okami tells the story of a mythical sun god who sets out to restore a dismal world, decimating the forces of evil who stand in the way by commanding the elements and mythical abilities the deity possesses. Mixing Japanese folklore and a stunning traditional Japanese art style, players must utilize an inventive control scheme to overcome the challenges and evil that await. By enhancing the unique gameplay, visual style and story line of Okami with the control of the Wii Remote, it is sure to be the ultimate version of the game. Originally designed for the PS2 and released in 2006, Okami now comes alive in an entirely new way on the Wii with its visually stunning art style and beautiful scenic 3D levels that have the appearance and texture of paper scrolls brushed with watercolor-like calligraphy art. Throughout the vibrant and distinctive surroundings, players must use the Wii remote to interact with a dynamic world and cast of characters. The blend of stylized graphics, movements and unique gameplay will result in a rich and dynamic experience never seen before. [Capcom]… Expand

    Okami is a stunning game experience through and through. It has depth and longevity, as well as beautiful art direction, graphics, and music.

    When you decide to make no compromises, you can expect either a catastrophe or a miracle. Okami is the second case. This game is the phantom that scares other games with its own perfection and neatness. [Aug 2008]

    It's as well-designed as Zelda, as involving as Final Fantasy, and as beautiful as anything you've ever seen; it belongs with the best of the Zelda series at the very apex of its genre.

    I haven't enjoyed a game this much since Ocarina of Time (and being disappointed with Twilight Princesses' ultimately linear game play, Okami comes as a real breath of fresh air). I hope to see more games following this challenge-reward formula. Highly recommended.… Expand

    Bah, I wanted to like this game so much. I played for 4 hours, the quit after the game made me break my wii mote all over the damn place. The painting scenes require way too much precision. I got to a part that makes you sit through a minute long cut scene, (why you can skip through all other cut scenes but not this one is beyond me) and then makes you draw little circles over fruit for about a minute. sounds easy right. HA. goddamned pos likes to accept half ass circles, and then completely ignore perfect circles, making you start over again. After my 5th retry I snapped. goodbye wii mote. Goodbye Crap game. Oh yeah, the fighting sucked too.… Expand
