    One of the best, most beautiful games ever made.

    Okami HD is a fantastic game that I cannot recommend enough; at its $19.99 price tag, that is practically giving the game away.

    Aside from a few minor gripes and this re-release of the game not offering much else from the 2012 PlayStation 3 re-release (other than higher resolutions and the return of loading screen mini-games), Okami HD is still a near-perfect game. If you haven't already beaten or played it yet, then now is a better time than ever before..Unless you're waiting for a Nintendo Switch port.

    Okami was a high point of the PS2 era, fusing its action to an incredible art style that was years ahead of its time. It takes a bit to get moving from the opening section, but every new area is packed with things to do with little wasted space to be found and it doesn’t seem to ever stop growing. New areas bring new abilities that open up more options, both for solving puzzles in the world and taking out enemies, and there’s always something happening to pull you a little bit farther along the story. Okami HD is close to being the perfect version of the original game, sharp and crisp and beautiful in a way we could only have dreamed of when it first came out.

    Okami combines typical Zelda-like gameplay with an extraordinary art style and a world full of interesting mythology.

    If you liked playing games from Platinum Games, which are now also found on the PC, Okami HD is also essential in your game library.

    Okami is the definition of a masterpiece, and somehow manages to be a better Zelda game than any Zelda game since Ocarina of Time. The worldOkami is the definition of a masterpiece, and somehow manages to be a better Zelda game than any Zelda game since Ocarina of Time. The world is fantastic to explore with engaging characters and charming aesthetics. Each tune on the soundtrack really harkens back to the Japanese folklore the game is so well crafted around. It really does ooze charm, style and love. I haven't felt so immersed in a game in a long time.

    The brush mechanic itself is somehow seamlessly integrated with the overworld and makes everything you do from puzzles to fights unique. Dungeons, boss fights, hidden secrets, collectibles, puzzles, platforming challenges. Every mainstay is here and come together for a long and satisfying experience.

    There was no better time for Capcom to remind the world what good, complete and satisfying gameplay experiences look like in a world full of companies trying to nickel and dime you at every turn. (Which admittedly, Capcom are very guilty of themselves)

    In my opinion this game is the pinnacle of the action-adventure game genre. It does so many things right and no matter how hard I look the flaws never stand out. Do yourself a favor and experience an absolute classic. This game is Kamiyas magnum opus.    … Expand

Et poétique, onirique, drôle, émouvant. La refonte graphique sur Pc en 4k est tout simplement impressionnante. Les couleurs sont éclatantes et les animations en cel-shading représentent, à moins d'être viscéralement réfractaire au style, rien de moins que le mètre-étalon de cette technique. Les musiques sont merveilleuses et en totale adéquation avec l'action en cours à l'écran. Enfin les trouvailles de gameplay comme, bien entendu le fameux Pinceau Céleste, finissent le travail en apportant ce que l'on peut qualifier de cerise sur le Mochi. Puisqu'il faut bien lui trouver des petites imperfections, il faut reconnaitre que l'introduction est inutilement longue et pénible et que la "puce" est un peu trop bavarde. Sinon, ce n'est que pur bonheur. Élu jeu de l'année 2006 par nos confrères de IGN et depuis sa sortie considéré comme l'un des meilleurs jeux vidéo de tous les temps, Okami et un jeu que tout joueur se doit d'avoir fait. Et la disponibilité aujourd'hui d'Okami HD est l'occasion ou jamais de le faire ou de le refaire, encore et encore.… Expand
