Okami HD (PS3)

[Anim8td_fan]

Okami is getting the HD treatment this fall for PS3. It has full trophy support including a platinum. I played this on the PS2 long after it came out and it is a great game so I hope this sells really well. Oh and it has Move support if you care about that.

Grab your Celestial Brush! I’m pleased to confirm that this fall, gamers will be able to return to the land of Nippon in Okami HD, exclusively on the PS3 with PlayStation Move support. Initially released to

critical acclaim

on

the PS2, Okami HD has the player take on the role of Amaterasu, the Japanese sun goddess, who inhabits the form of a wolf. After a tyrannical monster, Orochi, turns the world into a ruined, colorless wasteland, Amaterasu must use her magical abilities to restore the land to its previous glory and defeat the demon in charge of the destruction.

Okami HD brings Amaterasu’s epic tale to the PS3 with fully integrated HD graphics and widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio. I did not think it was possible to make the game look even better, but when I saw it for myself, I was a believer. The trademark sumi-e ink art style lends itself perfectly to HD, allowing players to experience more of the awe-inspiring world displayed in more detail than ever before. Check out the trailer above to see what I’m talking about!

To create an even more immersive experience, you can take your PlayStation Move motion controller and use it as your own Celestial Brush and naturally make brush strokes to defeat enemies and solve puzzles. That said, if you’re just in the mood to relive Okami in HD with the same controls as you had on your PS2, you can also play with your traditional PS3 controllers.

To top things off, we know everyone loves Trophies, so Okami HD will support PS3 Trophies, (including a Platinum) giving you new challenges to face and feats to complete. Okami HD will be available for download exclusively on PS3 in North America and Europe this fall.

Finally! A reason to dust off my Move!

Wonder how much it'll be.

It's going to be $20. I guess the Move controls will be the same as the Wii version which I seem to recall not hearing a lot of good things about.

It's nice to see them upgrading the game but at the same time I think I would much prefer a new game in the series.

It's sad that Clover Studios is gone, but I'm so glad this game lives on and on. I already finished the PS2 version back in its days and I still can't wait to replay it. The mid section is a bit slow, but overall 50 hours of awesome action RPG goodness. The story is also amazing, the build up and the pay off at the end is fantastic.

I would assume that would make it work like the PS2 game did as well and let the gamer choose what way they want to play it. Of course, that's unless Sony wants to try and Sell Move controllers... which isn't out of the question by any means.

It's in the first post: "To create an even more immersive experience, you can take your PlayStation Move motion controller and use it as your own Celestial Brush and naturally make brush strokes to defeat enemies and solve puzzles.

Well... obviously I didn't read that.

Capcom's press release revealed its price: $19.99/£15.99/€19.99

Damn you, Capcom! €19.99 are $25, I'll get it off the US store then.

I own the Wii version of this game, but never played it. I think I'll ignore the Wii version, and play this version instead.
