Board 8 > Rate the Game: Okami

(+) Yeah! (+)

Rules:
- Rate from 0 to 10 (one decimal place is fine, more than that and I'll round for you). I'd prefer if 5 were an average rather than 7.
- You may vote for any games you want that have been rated before at any time. You may also change your vote at any time.
- No alts, no joke voting, no “purposeful downvoting” - you all know this.
- Please only vote if you've played enough of the game to be able to rate it.
- You may nominate as many games as you want on any given day. Multiple noms of the same game aren't necessary.

Even though it can still get there via retro votes, Deus Ex not only fails to get in the Top 10 like I figured, but it just barely makes it into the Top 25.

Today's game is the first non-Viewtiful Joe game by Clover Studio and the second-to-last game of theirs before shutting down

Oh yeah, since I actually finished UC2 I'd like to reinsert my rating.

Uncharted 2 - 6.8/10

The action is good, and the writing is alot better than the first, which is good to help the characters be more likable. The climbing segments are still ass-- this is probably an 8-8.5/10 game without those.

Hopefully this puts it back below Starcraft !!

Deus Ex 10/10

Looks like I will be having to do a lot of score implementing after I take my finals today.

Okami - 8.2

Gorgeous game with incredible areas that were wonderful to traverse and it was a nice change of pace to control a non-anthropomorphic female wolf. However, the game frequently dragged on at parts and the combat became stale almost immediately.

can I comment on it?
It's an amazing game, had the most beautiful artwork throughout the whole thing. Also had really great gameplay and a lot of side quests so you can play the game forever before finishing it completely.
