Okami replacement covers shipping with bonus!

Hey, remember ordering replacement boxart for your copy of Okami? To make up for the unsightly blemish on the covers that came with the game (sorry, IGN), Capcom offered a selection of replacement art ranging from "the real cover, but IGN-free" to completely new, unconventional box designs, and we all got to pick one.

We've had to wait a bit, but it turns out that we'll get all of them! According to Capcom's Colin Ferris, "Each cover sheet features the cleaned cover art on one side, and the two different new designs on the other." The covers are now on their way out, ready to adorn those copies of Okami that you forgot about or traded in.

If you didn't order a replacement cover, perhaps because you didn't yet own Okami and are an honest person, you can still find the high-quality images available for printing.

All Okami boxart is great boxart. Here in the UK, we got corrected boxart without the IGN watermark from the off, well I think we did (goes and checks).

I just recently completed the game. It took my breath away. Masterpiece.

I wish this game retailed for £20 rather than £30.

After completing WindWaker a few weeks back the urge to play another big game has slowly been growing though.

It's worth it. They could have charged double what they are now and it'd still be worth the price!

That boxart is inspired, JC...excellent blogging... :-)

"If you didn't order a replacement cover, perhaps because you didn't yet own Okami"

...you should be ashamed of yourself! Okami is easily one of Top 3 Best games on the system, especially for anyone who claims to be a Zelda fan.

Finally! I was beginning to think I'd never get my hands on that sweet new Okami art.

So I didn't need to go through the trouble of ordering each one from three different addresses?

Maybe a slight error at the end there, everyone will be getting two covers, the two pretty ones and they both have the fixed plain cover on the reverse. The wording makes it sound like you'd get one with the plain cover on one side and then both of the other covers on the opposite side, which I'm pretty sure isn't possible.
