GameSpy: Okami Review - Despite some serious issues with the Wii controls, Okami remains a work of art

GameSpy writes: "In 2006, Capcom and the now-defunct Clover Studio released Okami for the PlayStation 2, earning multiple accolades including GameSpy's highest possible review score. In 2008, Okami comes to the Nintendo Wii with motion-sensitive controls for its lauded Celestial Brush. Despite some serious setbacks, the game still stands head and shoulders above nearly anything else available today."

Pros:
-Breathtaking artistry and music;
-Refreshingly original character design and animation
-Strong storytelling

Cons:
-Motion-sensing controls make using the Celestial Brush painfully frustrating
-Mild camera issues
