For a guy with a short attention span, i don't really enjoy long-winded movies or games for that matter. Okami has tested my patience on so many levels that sometimes i wonder if i would ever finish the game if it was not for my fanboyism love for hideki kamiya games. As good as Kamiya is at crafting out action games, i must admit most if not all of his games lacks a strong finish. It could be due to his inability to stick to schedule and finish a game ontime, thus leading to the game getting rushed as it reaches the end of production that's something i will never know for sure.
Devil May Cry was a short but very sweet game, a nice length for an action game but yet somehow kamiya still managed to ruin it by plugging in an on-the-rails shooting/flying segment with the final boss. Viewtiful Joe was far worse, upon beating the final boss you are treated to an ending that revealed that it's not quite the end of Viewtiful Joe and co yet. I don't exactly remember much of the last level as i thought the game sort of fizzle out after the big boss fight with Fire Leo, probably because i had to cheat my way through the rest of the way. Okami? Plain awful final boss and a rather abrupt ending similar to the first Viewtiful Joe, i wonder if it would have felt more fulfilling had ReadyatDawn left the original credit sequence in there?
