Well, I think there's no question that Okami is one of the best games ever made. The only question would be the flaws someone has that would prevent them from liking it. These sorts of things need to examined.

Really, had they toned down Issun and edited the game down to flow better, I think it'd improve dramatically.  It just needed a bit more polishing.  The Wii port was also pretty unoptimized, and could have definitely been better.  I wasn't a fan of the new supersaturated colors or reduced paper filter, the PS2 version really does look a lot better imo.  The weird weapon timing in the Wii version sucks too, I wish we'd have gotten the controls from the JP version instead (A button attack, wiitmore dodge).

I could make the same case for Navi in Zelda being annoying, and I could probably form complaints about flow if I didn't like it and wanted to complain about it. The game has amazing amounts of polish, by the way. I haven't played the Wii version much, so I can't offer a lot of insight on that one, but you're looking at one of the most polished games ever made.
