The intro is still long, there’s still no actual voice acting, and one the most beautiful looking, heartwarming, unapologetically Japanese games of the last decade still retains its power both as a testament to game design and a celebration of the old Japanese cliché about The Power Of Friendship™. On the other hand, it’s nice to finally be able to draw bombs and lily pads without struggling for a minute, only to come up with something that looks like a mutant pancake.Īside from the addition of trophies, this is still the same Okami that was criminally ignored back in 2006. Both control systems actually play decently to their strengths though for long term play, the traditional Dualshock method will probably win out for sheer comfort. With a Move and Navigation controller, drawing is now much faster and more natural, as players expected, but the use of a D-pad on the Navigation controller (or a Dualshock if you don’t have one) for camera control now means that adjusting your view feels clunky. Person action game, but it always felt a little clunky when it came to the Celestial Brush mechanics that had players drawing images that would translate into game tools. Okami when played solely with a Dualshock controller functions well as a 3 rd It counterbalances the original control system with strengths and weaknesses of its own. As with the Wii version, this HD port now has some motion control thrown into the mix. The other big change is the addition of a new control scheme. The only downside here-though not to the same degree as God of War-is that the old pre-rendered cutscenes don’t look as smooth or crisp as the real-time cutscenes. The higher resolution makes a solid contribution to the bold lines and rich colours, even the texture of paper that sat behind the graphics looks richer and crisper. It’s now in widescreen, but more importantly, its lush, Japanese ink brush aesthetic has been rezzed up to 1080p.This is the most beautiful that this game is ever going to look which is saying a lot considering how beautiful it looked before. The big news here is obviously the graphical overhaul.
#OKAMI PS2 SCREENSHOT PS2#
Capcom it seems, still has a soft spot in its corporate heart for this gem of gaming, and they’ve gone to another Japanese studio, HexaDrive, to bring this respectful HD port of the PS2 classic. Which is why it came as a huge surprise when almost no one bought it. It was critically lauded by most reviewers (including me) when it first came out, and was hailed for its brilliant design as much as its stunningly gorgeous and distinct art direction.
Okami is the best Zelda game that Nintendo never made.
