Not MGS3:Subsistence. :eyeroll:

Silly boy.


Heh...

Okami is a piece of Art... According to Kojima, Capcom execs, and Nintendo, games aren't supposed to be Art... Therefore, Okami was a flop, saleswise, and the company that made it (a subsidiary of Capcom) was disolved. Too bad, too. This game is gorgeous. And about 100x more interesting than Capcom's "big" title Lost Planet.

Of course, I consider MG series to be art, too... In the same way that any movie can be art, that is. If MGS3 isn't art, then no product sold for money can be considered art. Okami can still be considered art because it didn't make much money.

Just a little irrelevant side-note before someone tries to prove me wrong.

I consider Snake Eater and Subsistence different games.
