Capcom said they don't want a sequel, and I played both, but the PS2 trumps the Wii version, cause Ready At Dawn, said Clover coded the game, in the most unusual way, plus the Wii controls, weren't spot on.

But this is easily 1 of the greatest games ever made, hands down, on all aspects.

The game play is almost identical for motion control for the paintbrush. The only noticeable thing is the absence of the film grain in the Wii version.

Because we already played it on the PS2?

I rented it myself, awesome game. I had no idea i was in for 40 hours of game play.

I was surprised that this game took the top spot as my favourite and wish it was on the PS3.

Okami was a pretty brilliant game, but yeah - Own it on the PS2 already. Thought about getting it for the Wii but I dont have the time to commit to it, again.

this has been said before on this site and maney others but......i'll say it again" Wii owners hate ports".I,m sure it's a great game but i'm not buying a game that was made for the wii and the ps2.Why you ask because the wii is way better then the ps2 and i'd bet that it's nothing but a port over.I could be wrong but i don't think so.I'll save my money for something that was built with the wii in mind.

It's simple really, Okami didn't sell well because the public doesn't appreciate original and stylish games.

Okami is hands-down one of the greatest games of all time, it was way better than Twilight Princess. I hope Bayonetta (the next game from gaming mastermind Hideki Kamiya) doesn;t suffer the same fate.
