Okage: Shadow King

Okage: Shadow King (2001)

Themes:Action, Comedy, Horror
Game modes:Single player
Story:Conquer your demons and you may conquer the world in this distinctly styled role-playing adventure for the PlayStation 2. Some have compared the look of this game to Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas and the fluid, stop-motion appearance of the three-dimensional characters is not completely unlike that seen in seasonal television specials. OKAGE: Shadow King is not a holiday story, however, but a dark tale of polar opposites that questions basic notions of identity and essence. Players take the role of Ari, a young man with a remarkable affliction. A powerful demon -- calling himself "Stan" -- has taken refuge in Ari's shadow and is becoming infused in the boy's life. To free both his demon and himself, Ari embarks on a dangerous and involved quest to rid the world of seven other rival demons. Though he suffers under the burden of playing host to Stan, Ari is also aided from time to time by his demon's powers and the two begin to forge a symbiotic relationship.Show more

I absolutely love this game. I played this game a few years ago on my ps2 and had a really fun time with it, the characters are written well and have really cool goofy designs, and I really love the tim burton vibe this game has and I personally think this game should be available to more people to enjoy this masterpiece

This was such a charming game and one of my childhood favorites. It is funny, it is cute, it is absolutely nutty and every character has its own charm. A very unique coming of age story turned to save the world adventure with tons of laughs and heartwarming moments.

This was the first ps2 game I bought with my own money. I hand drew a map for the world library as a kid. Boogie Knight, if you're out there, thanks for all the forum help with OSK in the early 2000s.
This game oddly enough wasnt my first choice of games that came with ps2 demo cd. But its main character’s English name, Ari, was the same as my dad’s nickname, so it caught my attention and we got the game. Now coming up 24 years later, I’m making my own fan sequel as a love letter to this series. Sekimoto’s unique artwork and the love letter style parody to RPGs story line is something I wish people to see more. I do agree the gameplay can be janky, defiantly a product of its time, but the art, characters and story makes up for it.

Heimdall
HeimdallHeimdall is an action-adventure computer game developed by a team called The 8th Day and published by Core Design. The game is set in the world of Vikings and Norse mythology. Loki steals Odin's sword, Freyr's spear and Thor's hammer, rendering them powerless. They decide to create an infant, the title character (named after the god of the same name), who must bring back the three legendary weapons. The game sees Heimdall and his crew travelling around an archipelago of islands in three different maps: Utgard, Midgard and Asgard. They travel engaging monsters in combat, interacting with the locals, solving puzzles and avoiding traps, a blend of styles somewhat similar to that found in the Legend of Zelda games. The cartoon-style action is viewed in the isometric perspective.

Infamous: Second Son - Limited Edition
Infamous: Second Son - Limited EditionThis edition, when pre-ordered, also comes with the exclusive Cole's Legacy. Cole's Legacy is an expansion pack for Infamous: Second Son which was initially available only by pre-ordering the game (For US Customers), or purchasing the Special Edition (All other Countries). The pack contains missions uncovering the events which happened during the seven year time span between the activation of the RFI in Infamous 2 and the storyline of Infamous: Second Son. This is the only time when Zeke Dunbar makes a cameo appearance and Dr. Sebastian Wolfe's brother Raymond Wolfe appears in a cameo as well. After completion of Cole's Legacy, the Cole's original bike courier jacket is awarded for in-game use. The design of the jacket is slightly different compared to the first two games of the series. In this game, the design of the jacket shows some tears in the front and the back of the jacket and rather than the yellow pads being sewed up on top of the black jacket, the yellow and the black are sewn together imitating as a jacket pad-less. There are also some more minor changes such as the zipper on the jacket is also revealed due to Delsin wearing it without zipping it up and covering it, and also small changes to the collar area of the jacket. Since June 25, 2014, European Infamous: Second Son players can now access the Cole’s Legacy’ DLC from the PlayStation Store
