Sony - Okami HD with Move! - View Post

Why is nobody talking about this?  I could only find a single thread on this, from when it was still a rumor and we had no details.

So yeah, Okami is being remastered in HD for PS3 with support for both Move and analog controls.  It's set for Fall, and it'll be released on PSN in North America and Europe for $19.99/19.99, and in Japan via retail in addition to PSN for ¥3,900.   You can pre-order the Japanese release for  $79.90 USD at Play-Asia.

The PlayStation Blog posted a trailer for the game alongside its announcement:

(Edit:  Sony's embed code didn't work =/)

I haven't been this excited for a game in a long time! Possibly ever!  I've only played the Wii version, but I loved it, and I thought the brush controls were mapped to the Wiimote really well.  It may have been my favorite use of motion on the console.  The mix of style and music is only matched by a select few other games, in my opinion, like the Wind Waker and Shadow of the Colossus, but even they fall short.  Just hearing the music in the trailer for this remaster had me all giddy.

This will unquestionably be the best version of the game released.  HD.  Motion or analog controls.  Trophies.  Though I'm surprised they didn't announce a Wii U version.  I feel like there's always a boat Capcom's missing when it comes to poor little Okami.
