    Okami is a superb game that simply keeps on giving, but sometimes there can be too much of a good thing. Okami proves that when after the second or third ending it gives you, it keeps on going even if you've already had enough, slightly souring the otherwise amazing experience.
    Pros: Beautiful visual style, Celestial Brush is a cool gameplay mechanic, helluva charming, lovely characters, great music and story, diverse locales, mostly great dungeons and boss fights, flashy combat, gameplay and scenic variation stop the game from going stale...
    Cons: ...for good two thirds of the game, then the game starts to overstay its welcome (last few hours especially are a huge pain), combat is all flash and no substance, overall the game is way too simple and too easy, camera and ball physics are troublesome

      Editing … I personally liked the huge dramatic peaks that made you think the game was over, only for the story to march on. It was like the Nier: Automata of its day. By the end it really felt like I had been on a huge, incredible journey, and the way it shows all the characters lending you their strength makes it all feel very earned. It made that final boss fight against pseudo-Unicron one of the most memorable and emotionally enthralling endings to a game I've ever experienced. The story is so good it makes you forget about the annoying chirping and squeaking the characters make. I would have trimmed back on the recycled boss fights though. That's one annoying staple in Japanese games I could do without.
