Okami HD

[Daystar Clarion]

I never played Okami, but I have been interested in it, and I do plan on picking up the HD version.

Is there any word on how much it will cost? Because that will probably be the deciding factor if I pick it up right away, or if I wait a few months.

If I had to guess, I'd probably put the game around the £10-15 mark, since it's a digital release.

 

[Euryalus]

Will it come out for the 360? 'cause I'm not going to pick up a PS3 just for this (as godlike a this as it may be)

PS3 only, I'm afraid.

You are being punished for choosing the wrong console.

Oh cruel fate what tragic hand hath thou dealt me...

At least I've played the game...once

That's worth something right?

The not being struck by the angry gods' lightning kinda something right?

 

[ScrabbitRabbit]

I haven't played the original, but I plan on getting it. The PS3 is my brother's so I'd barely get to play it and the only HD display in my house is my computer monitor :'] Although most HD collections run at 60FPS, which is always nice... not enough to give up being able to play the game whenever I want, though.

 

[telocaster]

Having never played Okami before(I had a gamecube, sue me), the trailer does make it look like a good game.
Also dat Art Style.

So Daystar, what makes this game so special?

I dunno...

Might get half struck with lightning.

When anyone ever asks me that question, I always answer it the same way.

Okami is like The Legend of Zelda.
Only better in every conceivable way.

Better Dungeons?
Better Boss Fights?
Better Music?
Better Exploration?
Better Sidequests?
Better Puzzles?

I am sure it will be fun, I appreciate a game that tries to have it's own identity.

 

[Fiz_The_Toaster]

While I still have my PS2 copy of the game and love it to bits, I'm getting this, and wanna know why?

IT'S FUCKING OKAMI IN HD!!

So pretty, and you can never have enough Okami.

Well objectively, I couldn't say

But for me, the game just hits all the right notes.

I love Wind Waker, it's my favourite Zelda game of all time, but there's just something about Okami...

 

[TehCookie]

Okami is one of my favorite games, but I'm too cheap to buy a digital upscale. Also I still hate Capcom for not doing all the cutscenes in the DMC HD so there's no way I'm buying another one from them.

 

[Exius Xavarus]

Snipz.

I played Okami on PS2. I tried playing on the Wii, but I just couldn't get past the fact that you HAVE to use the motion controls and I really do not like it. It probably won't be, but I'm hoping Okami HD isn't restricted to the PS Move bull.

Okami also pops into my mind every couple days whenever I play Samurai II on my Nexus. The art style is just so nearly identical, but in a good way.

Also, I will be purchasing Okami HD the day it comes out.

 

[neonsword13-ops]

Eh. Never played it before, but it looks alright.

I'm more interested in Sony porting over Persona 4 to the PS3.

Once that happens, EVERYBODY WILL BE HAPPY!

...

[sub][sub][sub]Please don't hurt me, I'll buy it day one I swear. ;([/sub][/sub][/sub]

 

[DustyDrB]

I have the Wii version, so I'll just be sticking with that. But it's cool that they are re-releasing it for latecomers. The HD upgrade isn't enough to make me buy it again. My version still looks good on my HD TV because the art style hasn't aged. It's like The Wind Waker in that regard, I think.

 

[crono738]

Bought it on the PS2...unfortunately it was used, so Clover didn't get my monies

This'll be a day 1 buy for me. Because its Okami.

 

[Solo-Wing]

... What the fuck is this game even about?

I got a PS2 but no PS3... If you can interest me enough on it I might try to hunt down a PS2 copy...

 

[Baron_Rouge]

I've never played it before, but I've heard nothing but glowing recommendations.Day 1 buy for sure

 

[Zhukov]

I'll probably give it a go if I see it at an acceptable price.

God help you if I don't like it.

 

[Mirroga]

I am keeping a very close eye on it as someone who hasn't played it in the PS2. Although once it is released, it has to pass a gauntlet of my personal high-standards for a single player game.

You dare question this games greatness?

How 'high' are your standards, exactly?

My high standards are purely subjective. But it heavily favors a very awesome single-player mode with some nice replayability, and/or mixing things up with some level-up systems.

Here's the list of my game library anyways.

? Action-Adventure:
o Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence
o Shadow of the Colossus
o Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
? First-Person Shooter (FPS) ? BioShock
? Hack And Slash:
o Bastion
o Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition
o God of War III
? Life Simulation ? Monster Rancher 2
? Metroidvania ? An Untitled Story
? Platformer ? Super Meat Boy
? Puzzle Platformer:
o Portal 2
o Warp
? Roguelike ? The Binding of Isaac
? Shoot 'Em Up (SHMUP) ? Einhänder
? Tower Defense ? Plants VS Zombies
? Turn-Based Tactics ? Frozen Synapse
? Wide Open Sandbox:
o Batman: Arkham City GOTY Edition
o inFAMOUS 2

That's why Okami caught my sights back then like SotC but was unable to buy. How's the replayability factor and new game+?

 

[jdogtwodolla]

The PlayStation 3 is a good system for an HD release. I'm curious to see an HD release for the Wii U. That screen looks like it could be the best option for paint controls.

 

[DrunkOnEstus]

Own a PS2 and a Wii copy, and Daystar's right, when my wife asked me about it all I could say was "you know Zelda? All the best parts of all the 3D ones, done right, plus more, and breathtaking art in motion as a graphical direction."

I'll get this too, especially since the price is right and both versions I have are mistreated by a forced external upgrade to an HD monitor.

 

[Boggelz]

Yup, I always like to try games that seem unique and interesting. Okami's artsyle alone seems interesting enough for a purchase.

Also it's hard to say no to Daystar.
