Brian Crecente from Kotaku writes: Okamiden manages to walk the fine line between artistic and interesting, delivering a portable gaming experience that is a pleasure to watch and play.
I spent about a half hour with the localized version of the DS title last week, settling down into a chair to tap my way through a small section of gameplay.
In Okamiden players take on the role of Chibiterasu, the wolf cub of Okami's Amatersau. Throughout the section I played through, Chibiterasu had sidekick Kuni, the son of the original game's Susano, riding on his back.
There are more franchises that cater to particular people than ever in the online melting pot. But there are plenty of sequels and spin-offs that don’t even start, uh, cooking in that melting pot.
Phil writes, "I don't like to toot my own horn (aw, hell-- TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!), but today I celebrate my 31st birthday, and with that, SuperPhillip Central arrives with five special themes to commemorate the occasion. Sure, I was going to use these five VGMs regardless, but why ruin the spectacle of the moment?
The recently released Gravity Rush 2 leads us off with a jazzy battle theme before handing it off to Final Fantasy XI. Then, we turn our attention to Okamiden. Following that is some funk (the good kind) from Dreamcast classic Jet Set Radio. Lastly, we roll on through with a catchy song from Katamari Forever.
Hey, you! Yeah, you! Click on the VGM volume name to hear the song on YouTube! Finally, check out the VGM Database for all past VGMs featured on this weekly recurring segment. Now, let's get on to the music!"
This listicle presents five classic PS2 games that are worthy of being resurrected for a PS4 exclusive game release, which was last week in a tweet.
Okami it's one of my favorite games ever, but i really don't see another game from the series coming. Looks like they used a lot of Japanese myths on the first game, or am i wrong? What else could it be for a sequel?
It really makes me sad how the game had poor sales, it's a masterpiece in every sense.
Hmm, Grandia reminds me of Dreamcast, which reminds me of Skies of Arcadia, which reminds me of MAKE IT! Remake/remaster, as long as it comes out, it's all good. Btw, a remake or a nu-gen reinterpretation announcement would make my jaw fall off; little to no chance of that tho, right? :(
& yeah, not ps2, but still want it.
I feel that with level-5s popularity, a rogue galaxy 2 would be a really big hit.
I'd sooner have DQ8. I liked Rogue galaxy but always felt it meandered a tad too much.
Honestly any exclusive will be big to the PS4 since it is severely lacking in that department.
Don't tell me it has exclusives because other than BloodBorne, Persona 5, Uncharted, and Horizon nothing has been announced. Sony has taken a big hit in the financial department how much is and will that effect them this generation when it comes to game is unknown.
PS4 is way beyond in the new ip department as well. The best exclusive so far on the console is a remaster like come on people stop defending Sony and start demanding more fronm them instead of defending the mediocrity that is PSN, which goes down once a week for mainttance and/or updating th store.
Let me be clear I like my PS4 but I want more and am not happy with what they have given us so far and want to see both consoles do well. I wanted BloodBorne and Uncharted as of now and that is the only reason I bought the console, if it wasn't for those two games I would not own the system at all.
I know a lot of people are blind to this and think Sony is the savior to gaming and the PS4 is superior console and that very well might be and you have the right to have that opinion but start demanding more from them instead of attacking people who disagree with Sony

In just barely over a year, ps4 had a wide variety of games across all genres and is only getting bigger with each passing day.
Sports, Rpgs, racing, fighting, anime, horror, ps4 has it all.
And with e3 right around the corner, this list is bound to grow.
I'll admit Xbox one had a stronger launch line-up, but it's lagged behind since then.
On topic: How about a new atv off-road fury, sly Cooper, jak and daxter, maximo or SSX? :)
Yeah, I'm getting a little sick of people who keep saying there are no games on the PS4. Just because there may not be a particular type of game or genre some people personally want, they say there's nothing available. Time to grow up kiddies. There is plenty of stuff available right now.
You say there are plenty of exclusives announced, both first and third party and then go on to list multiplatform titles like LBP3, MLB The Show, Ultra SF4, SF5, FF X/X2 HD, and God of War 3... ???
I think it's Suikoden,it's the biggest possibility I think.After that comes dark cloud then the getaway
definitely, I can easily see the stylus being the best for a paintbrush mechanic in a game. It's like trauma center on the wii, it's good but it's so much better with a stylus.
If they make another Okami game after this, they should consider making it work with PS Move, Natal, and/or WiiMotionPlus if it was multipat of course. That would be pretty fun and I see it as a kind of game that was meant for motion controls.
gets no attention on n4g
i was really impressed by the vid!
with the stylus is like havink the brush on your hand, even better than okami on the Wii
This game will be a blast on the DS, so perfect for that platform
