    Okami

    The stuff of legends. Perfect for ICO types.

    I'll probably sound like a small-minded xenophobic cretinous impatient simplistic boorish halfwit for saying this [promising start -Ed], but hearing that a game is based upon "Japanese mythology" tends to put me off these days. Normally what follows such a revelation is the equally startling revelation that swords, demons and wronged children and/or warlords are involved, with a lead character whose latent folklore-y-ness is key to progression, and pause menus drawn on scrolls.

    Feature | Xbox 360 fails to convince in LA

    Did PS3 reveal itself on Microsoft's chips?

    Squeezed out just in time for E3.

    Kojima on Metal Gear Solid 4

    The series creator says his absence may curtail references and Codec humour, but says stealth will be key and that next-gen formats could lead to more "conceptual" or "spiritual" ideas.
