Okami is May's Game of the Month

For the Month of May we have Selected Okami as our game. It was a close race for awhile between all of the game nominations before Okami started to break away from the pack in the vote. The original Release of Okami was in 2006 and is a game that pushed the question of are videogames Art.

Made some stickers for myself and some friends

I made a design I was messing around with and then made some stickers out of them for some friends. Kinda made the club a little bit more tangible to me. This has been a fun little passion project for me the last few months and I really have been enjoying the community each and every day

The most Japanese weekend ever

All I'm missing is some sushi, and I plan to correct that soon once my order gets here.

What do you guys have going on in the background while you game?

Great recommendation, VGBookclub. I somehow never heard about this game until the sequel announcement.

Such a jam packed and beautiful game. Getting the 100% platinum was a rewarding journey as well. Anyone else excited for the sequel?

The Zelda-like?

When I first heard about this game years and years ago, it was because I love Zelda so much. People said this was arguably the best example of a Zelda clone or Zelda like. The brush is similar to the ocarinas and wind waker so I definitely see where they’re coming from, do you guys agree? I also think the game stands on its own enough, I haven’t heard anyone call it a Zelda like in a long time.

Who plans to play the sequel to Okami?

Some of you might not know this but there was a sequel to Okami called Okamiden that is pretty decent. I never finished it, but not because I wasn't enjoying it. I intend to correct this soon.

Being a Nintendo DS game, many of you might not have an option to play it on but luckily I have an AYN Thor that should emulate it beautifully. I'm looking forward to playing it.
