So are the controls broken? Or do reviewers just don't know what it is to LEARN HOW TO PLAY a video game anymore?

Will Okawii's sales push Capcom to make brand new Wii projects, or just port some more?

1. The controls work well, though I haven't gotten any of the nunchuk-movement dodges yet...
2. Just port some more, obviously...Did you really have to ask?

From what I understand even the nunchuck dodge move is an optional move, so while it may be unreliable it is far from necessary in the game.

The nunchuk controls are responsive but not in the way you want and I would have to agree they aren't required. How far is everybody in the game?

From what you posted the other day, I thought I'd reach there faster...Just defeated the Spider Queen at 7 hours...

Have you been avoiding side quests? ='D

By side quest you mean like feeding animals getting clovers and such? If yes then yes I have.I got past the part where you have to find those five dogs in the city and then the princess asks you to find the other 3 I am on the 2nd dog.

Edit: I wanted to edit my post but I clicked quote instead. I won't be playing for a few hours so you can catch up with me. I am gonna watch a movie.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #206 on:** April 17, 2008, 11:38:30 PM »

Seven hours of a single game in a single day is my quota... =)

After you get the three dogs and return to the princess and beat the dungeon and after the festival the next place that you go to you are stuck in till you beat it. Which is moon cave that is where orchi that 8 headed serpent is at. A little hint yummy sake. I stopped after that last dungeon. I need to slow down when I am playing.

I just got the Bloom brush stroke and the game has officially hooked me. I love it.

I got it last night, said I wasn't going to play it, then decided, as I was brushing my teeth, I'd just pop it in and watch the intro.

That turned into "I'll just play the intro!"

Then "Well, I need to get to a better stopping point."

and THEN "Oh, uh, I can't find a mirror to save, dang it!"

AND FINALLY "Ok, I just destroyed the big boulder, there's a mirror right there, it's like nearly 1am, and I have to get up in 5 hours, GOOD STOPPING POINT." Now, I am tired, but it's easy to tell, I am officially hooked already, not even two hours in.

P.S. - GP, your Z-button trick to draw straight lines is the most useful thing I've found so far with the controls. This is probably in the manual, huh? Cuz I sure don't remember it being in the in-game tutorial.

Yeah it isn't in the game, which is odd (probably time constraints when porting it over) but it is quite clear that Ready at Dawn understood there could be a problem with straight lines and came up with a solid solution to it.

When I picked up my copy at the local Gamestop, I saw 3 more copies on the shelf! Yay for a Gamestop receiving a shipment of more than one unit of this game! It makes me sad when they do that....

When I picked the game up I didn't have it reserved there were 5 non preorder copies.

Has anybody been to the dojo to train to get new attacks? When you decide to learn a new technique the sensai does a familiar pose from a character from back in 2003.

Alright, just polished Orochi off...I find it interesting that the story continues after you beat him...

What the F is with that unsightly circle on the Okami box? Fail.

Yeah, bad taste on Capcom's part...Like anyone will care about the ratings it got after already purchasing it...

What did you think of the fight? I thought it was humorous how you beat it.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #220 on:** April 19, 2008, 03:16:36 AM »

You guys are not gonna believe where I was at in the mouth of a emperor and there was this swordsman in there with him before you fight him you get this brush ability that is remincent of VJ. I would like to give out some battle tips. The reflector if you set it as a sub-weapon and time when you use it you can counter the attack into a piledriver. The roseries are good long range weapons as a main and sub weapon. They are quick but weak and can rack up the hits as a main weapon. The glaive is is slow but powerful weapon use it when you have a opening. Looking on the equipment screen It shows that there are 4 types of weapons I only have 3 so far. I wonder what type of weapon it is.

It was an okay battle...What I didn't like was that all 8 heads were killed the same exact way, which was a disappointment considering each head was a different element...It also made the battle drag out a big longer than I felt it should have...But since it's not the final boss, it doesn't bother me too much...

I don't know if you have noticed but if you look close to Ammy's mouth on the box art you will see an IGN watermark.

First picture is a normal shot, 2nd picture i made it darker so the IGN logo stands out and the 3rd picture I inverted it.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #223 on:** April 19, 2008, 01:52:56 PM »

sloppy port

Wow.... how does that even happen? At least it wasn't a PS2 logo....
