Advantages: Great graphics with individual style. Involving gampelay. Great use of the Wii-mote. Disadvantages: Limited replay value. May not be to everyone's taste
Originally released for the PS2, Okami was a game that got somewhat lost at the time, in part due to the arrival of the PS3 and the dissolution of Clover Studio who developed it. However, it's been given a second chance with this new and improved version for the Wii; converted for Capcom by new developers Ready at Dawn.
