Unlike so many other PS2 games, Okami has stood the test of time visually I enjoyed the vibrant colors and the aesthetic that was found in Okami HD, and it makes it feel like you’re playing with an interactive painting. While the Okami HD‘s story is very well-written, the main draw of the game are the well-written and lovable characters.Ĭlover Studio’s decision to implement cell-shaded graphics with massive inspiration from Japanese water coloring was a great decision by the development team. Regardless of which version you play the re-release on, Okami HD looks beautiful thanks to masterful art direction.

I reviewed the PC version of this game, and the hardware in my rig allowed me to run the game in 4K, which looks impressive. Of course, the game looks stunning at 1080p. Visually, the game is marvelous - the remastered PS2 version’s graphics still hold up in 2017, thanks to a healthy dose of polish. That being said, while I hold this title dear to my heart, I’m also taking on more critical eyes to see how this eleven-year-old title holds up and how additions impact the base game. So back in October when it was revealed that the previously PlayStation 3-exclusive Okami HD would finally see the light of day on current-generation consoles, I was excited.īefore I dive into this review, I want to disclose that I am a huge fan of the original Okami as well as its subsequent re-releases so much so that I’ve been hoping that this re-release on current-gen platforms will help spawn future installments.

Not only that, but the Mega Man X series will also receive resolution upgrades to be playable on modern hardware. Of course, it isn’t new for Capcom to bring back classic titles onto other consoles, even this year they re-released the Resident Evil Revelations series to current-gen platforms, as well as Mega Man 1-10 in the form of the Mega Man Legacy Collections. Going for fatality 'Demon Fang' hits is way too often a tense affair, the game just seems to often not recognize my lines as straight.…2006’s action-adventure title Okami would be considered Clover Studio’s legacy project.

It's really irritating when you want to slash and instead you end up just covering an enemy in black ink.ugh. I still have more failed paint slashes than I'd ever like though. It almost seems to never roll Ammy in the direction I'd like it to dodge, and I doubt I'll ever use it in the game because of that. Far less aggravating.Īs for the dodge roll, it totally blows. After lots of practice against the dummy I got a decent feel of it, but in actual combat situations I still can barely perform it on command.Īfter getting the new chain-like weapon though, it seems you can pretty much waggle nonstop to pull off long strings just fine and stow the default weapon in the 2nd slot for defense. Training for the 4-hit combo in the dojo and my failure rate was ridiculous. You can do the combo by pushing a single direction(I do mostly all 'right' slashes to pull it off), it's just the timing has to be absolutely flawless to pull it off. If anything my issue with waggle strikes REALLY makes me wish for a button attack.īeyond that, is there a way to see a checklist for missing animal feedings, clovers, treasure, and other hidden collectibles in each zone? Just wondering because it can be a nightmare trying to track down a missing chicken group in the lategame I'd guess.

I do like the motion controller, but it really isn't an improvement in any fashion based on my 4-5 hours. I've gotten accustomed to circles with greater accuracy, but it can occasionally feel like a crapshoot to get the game to register them still. Oh and even wrestling out straight ink slash strikes worked a zillion times more accurately on PS2. The window for waggling a perfect 3-hit combo is so damn small that it really is becoming a serious problem for enjoying that aspect of the game. Too slow and I end up doing constant 1-hit, 1-hit, 1-hit, 1-hit strikes until I get the chance to corpse slash for my demon nail. Waggle too fast and the game stops registering your commands period. Doing any sort of continued strings of attacks just doesn't seem to register as well as it should. I still can't get a good feel for the combat timing though. Adoring this game, just so well presented.
