Okami, Again, in HD

So I met Amaterasu, "origin of us all that is good and mother to us all", again.

This is one of my favorite game on Playstation 2 (PS2) and to my surprise and delight, was release in PS3 in HD.

The game revolves around the goddess Amaterasu  (nicknamed Ammy in the game), who is incarnated as a wolf to rid of the evil that plagued Nippon, Orochi.

If the names are somewhat familiar to you, you may have encountered it via Japanese Comics or Manga as it is popularly known. Amaterasu and Orochi are Japanese Myth.

Ammy's ability is to use Celestial Brush to execute different skills based on what you draw. On PS3, you may now use the PS Move in order to "rollout" a piece of paper and draw lines in order to execute Ammy's skills. The PS Move is quite a nice touch to the game as it makes you actually feels that you are drawing the lines.

When I played this on PS2, I was stunned with the way the game is presented graphic wise. The Japanese painting style presentation is quite nice to look at. Now imagine my reaction when it is now shown in HD.

Also, the game is quite long, making it worth the buy.

Oh, and now it also has trophies to achieve.
