Put it simply I play games because I want to play them not because I want to watch them.

The difference between press quickly the A button for 20 straight minutes and play the start of a game is quite astounishing

 

 

I think that's a little unfair. First off, the "20 minute cutscene" at the beginning is embellishment for effect. Secondly, the game is Zelda based, so it needs to spend a bit of time setting up the premise. The game actually has what I feel is a sparse story going forward, focused more on gameplay. My problems with the game are a bit more real than "I had to wait for 20 minutes to start playing."

If you can't stand that, then don't get a PS3. You have to do 20 minute installs at the start of a lot of your games.

Again, the pacing is really at fault here, though. The long cutscene followed very closely by a text heavy tutorial and "starting village" are a testament to the overly slow pace and excessive length of the game.

I feel if the game managed to pack everything it has now into a lean 20-25 hour package, it would be remembed as one of the greatest games of all time, rather than simply a AAA Wii and PS2 game.

I was responding to Montana comment. I enjoy Okami overall however I belive it isn't a perfect ( or near perfect ) game. Repetition is clearly one of its fault and also certain dialogues are too long.

PS: No problem about about the PS3, I'm currently satisfied by my Nintendo DS and Wii.
