At the beginning of the year, when the Wii version of Okami was released, someone noticed something odd about the cover art on the box – there was an IGN watermark on the Okami art! Shortly thereafter, Capcom announced “Okami Cover Artwork Redemption” – basically, they planned to cover up their colossal mistake via distraction. They offered some really nice alternate cover art, free to anybody who owned the game, if only we’d shut up and not get mad about them stealing their own artwork back from IGN.

I ordered immediately. In April. Today, it came in the mail. It’s really pretty. I’m gonna go play Okami now.
