Quantcast



Could Okamiden be the world's cutest DS game? All signs point to yes, with Chibiterasu being so insanely adorable that I reckon even Osama Bin Laden would get all cuddly and start respecting women. The game's looking hot and here's a new trailer to prove it. 

Check out the video and prepare to get all snorgly. This game is very lovely.

What Indiana Jones said is worse than anything Mel Gibson has ever said.

@indiana troll: you should have died in that fucking fridge. Fuck Indy 4.


...anyways

Thank you Capcom for showing us more of what the DS is actually capable of.

purchase on launch day (and if they have that sweet preorder deliciousness for the US too yum.) without a doubt.

This is the same troll who declared that the PSP was better than the 3DS despite not even coming close to fifty miles to it.
But it takes a certain kind of douche to wish failure on an Okami game.

I didn't like the original Okami at all, but hey, I wish this one all the best.

I REALLY hope that this sells like no tomorrow so Capcom can realize that this is an amazing franchise and then venture into doing a new Okami for the current generation consoles!
please do it.

Fuck you, fuck your movies, fuck your running from the boulders, fuck your treasure hunting, fuck your old wrinkly ass, fuck Harrison Ford, fuck Karen Allen, fuck Steven Spielberg and most of all fuck your fourth movie. And if I see you making a fifth one, I'm slappin' the shit outta you.

DS GOTY in Japan.

I hope it sells well so we get a 3DS sequel or something.

In the wake of the 3DS, there is still one DS game I will buy as soon as possible.

But DAMN. Okami keeps getting screwed over by emerging technology.
PS2 came out when Wii was beginning, and felt like it'd be so much better on Wii. So the team that made it went -poof!- and then years later a different team made the Wii version happen.

Okamiden is coming out on DS right before 3DS hits and damn if I can't help but wish, again, that it were just a little bit earlier or later.
If it comes out on both (and ends up being a really good game again), I'll support both versions again.

You know, I really like Okami, have it for the PS2, and while this looks like a very good port for the DS... there doesn't seem to be much new. Nothing really wrong with that, but the gameplay, the brush techniques, even the characters are mostly the same. Even some of the bosses I saw were similar to ones in the first game.

Piggybacking on Chibiterasu and a few additions is cool, but I'd like to have seen a bit more innovation. I'm kinda hoping that they'll eventually port the original Okami to the PSP. That way both portable consoles get some love. Again, not bashing the game. It looks quite fun, but it does look like a SD port of Okami with a few small additions. I do hope it does well... I'd like to see a full fledged sequel on a home console.
