We haven't got it over here yet. It's been in all the mags for well over 12 months, but no sign yet. Looks pretty cool though.

Okami isn't that expensive....for a PS2 game I mean. When it came out it was only 39.99. That's pretty good for that game. Oh and I LOVED IT! So yeah buy it!

I've only played the demo upto now. It seems pretty amazing tho.

If you want another game to seriously move you emotionally, try Shadow of the Collossus. A beautiful rollercoaster of a game that truly blew me away. I have played it through 3 times now and still feel guilty by about half way through.

If you love Shadow of the Collosus, may I recomend Ico since it is made by the same people and it has similar graphics engine aswell as story. The last game that made me feel emotional was Shenmue for the Dreamccast.

Im not suprise that you havent heard of it it was a pretty under rated game, it got great reviews but not many people gave it the recognition that it deserves. Its gonna be on my to buy lists. Or I might borrow from my friend.

Ico was brought out 3 or 4 years ago. It was made by the team who eventually did SoC. It is a fantastic looking VERY original game, Your basically a kid who has to lead a princess through all sorts of environments, but you have to solve puzzles and stuff to get her through. These spooky black ghosties keep trying to drag her to hell if you leave her alone to long tho.
i heard that shadow of colossus had a very emotional ending.
It does yeah, but your emotions are going all the way through really. Without spoiling the game, you just feel that you shouldn't be doing what your doing.

Because the ending was a letdown, or because it was so good you hated being done with it?

I've played both. There's a part of me that still gets teary-eyed when I think of Auron from Final Fantasy X or Mia from the .hack series. Then to the contrary, there's Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, which I absolutely loved up until the ending when they informed me in less than twenty seconds that the country was even more FUBAR after my work was done. :P

I have this big long list of things I plan to do once I finally start making a monthly income. There's quite a few things on the list that come before Okami, but it's on the list indefinitely.

BTW, has anyone tried both Okami and Godhand, Clover's other brainchild? If so, which do you recommend trying first?

so I heard, but Clover Studios is not porting it, so Wii owners dont get the honor of having Okami made by a brilliant studio.
