Having never played Okami before, I am completely in love with the game right now. It's unique and beautiful. There's nothing more satisfying than destroying a bunch of demons to restore the beauty of the earth!
I've played for 36 hours, and I think I'm a little more than half way through. Great value.

One gripe I have though, is that I'm starting to think Okami has too much story. XD
I love the story, and trully wish Zelda games had the depth and character interactions found in Okami. But after playing the game for this long, I feel lost some times because it seems every character has this amazing story to tell. And every new area you discover has its own history with evil gods to vanquish to restore peace. It gets a little overwhelming sometimes!
But that's just me. Perhaps I don't have the capacity to retain so much information.

Anyway, great game. Buy it!

The story itself doesn't bother me. The endless blathering of Issun does. I want him to choke to death on a fly so that I could have freakin' shot at solving a puzzle before he tells me the solution.

But other than that the game is fine. :P
