Hey dungavin,
Sorry my response has been so slow and thanks very much for your words; you're too kind. I haven't gotten round to playing Okami yet. I've got it but I'm still playing MGS3: Subsistence, which is just utterly bizarre and brilliant (On a side-note: I got a copy of Twin Snakes through the door today, from amazon. Really chuffed: they are quite rare. Cost me £40!). Okami does look brill though. I was thinking I might enjoy it more on Wii because of the whole 'painting' thing, but I've already got it for PS2. Darn multi-platforming.
Thanks for your comments on GRAW, also. The bit I was talking about was right at the end, but I remember the cobbled part because I also threw about fifty grenades over. Can't be too careful :)
