  • Updated version of Okami, I want this game!

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

It looks really really fun! Wind Waker fun (Or even Majora's Mask, and that game was a LOT of fun, maybe more so than any other in the series), which was better than Twilight Princess in my opinion.

I can't wait to try out the painting system using the Wii remote.


On a side note, it looks like Mario Kart will have to wait.

Once May hits, I'm ordering this, FES and prolly Mario Kart Wii.

Truthfully, I didn't really pay attention to it. I had no idea how awesome it looked. I wasn't even considering the Wii version until I saw that review video either. Tuesday for $39.99 is certainly what I wanted to hear though =)

Capcom seems to be insane when pricing their titles, since the Gamecube RE1-remake they seem to have been delivering very high quality titles at VERY low prices.

Seeker doesn't buy any game unless it's associated with Nintendo. Of course he never heard of the PS2 version. He must have ignored all of the threads talking about it for the last two years, too.

Sine doesn't make a post unless it's infested with ignorance. Of course he is clueless about the difference between a lack of interest and a lack of knowing about a game's existence. He must have completely ignored rational and logical thought for the last 28 years.

PS. Show me all of these Okami threads.

Worst attempt at argument ever!

1) Only TWO of those threads are about Okami, TWO!!!!! What the shit are all these other links for?
2) One of those threads is THIS thread!
3) The one listed as the most relavent thread was posted a month ago in anticipation of the Wii release, not exactly something that will convince a person to buy the PS2 version. On top of that, it barely discusses the game.

Well, we talk about all kinds of shit off-topic. It's nothing new.

All that proves is that I'm lazy. Which I am. Congratulations!

Try 2 1/2 years ago. You can read dates, can you? The point is that we've talking about it, quite a bit, so you should have looked into it.

Hell, don't look at us. Reviewers have talked about it and given it 10/10 or 5 stars or A+ ratings. Shouldn't that have peaked your interest? Or do you only read Nintendo Power for reviews?

1. I only read IGN and Gamespot (and on occasion Magicbox), I don't care about any of those other sites you mentioned. I stopped reading any kind of print magazine about the time videogamespot.com came online.

2. Gamespot and IGN gave Okami a 9.0 and a 9.1 respectively; not something I would even consider looking at in light of the fact that I already have tons of other stuff to play.

3. Where is all this discussion on the game you are talking about? I don't really see anything about the game at all outside of this thread.

You're whole argument is pointless and retarded. Your main argument is "Seeker doesn't buy any game unless it's associated with Nintendo."; which I am sorry to say, just shows that you are lacking somewhere mentally if you are indeed that ignorant. You seemed to post it for no real reason but to be ignorant. You backed it up with an argument stating that I should have known everything about a very obscure title that I just happened to catch a video review for; considering the title bombed completely, what do you have to say about all the other gamers (the 5000 who actually bought the game in North America aside) who didn't buy it?
