I own a sealed copy of Okami that I'm currently selling because the idea of dedicating 50 hours to a single game like this is just too daunting.

I have a low attention span see, so I rarely complete games like these before being destra--

As for the person who mentioned Shadow of the Colossus and Psychonauts, both are incredible games, but both have a strong emphasis on platforming and fighting.

If the original poster doesn't like those kinds of games with a passion, I wouldn't advise. But if he/ she is willing to take a plunge into action adventure games at any point, IMO these are the best of the best.

Both are unique, epic, but instead of dedicating 50+ hours, half of it seems meaningless, these provide a good 10-15 hours of gaming that's 100% satisfaction from start to finish.

With Psychonauts, I'd advise buying the PC version and grabbing a PC pad or PS2 pad converter. The PS2 game has some pretty awful frame issues.
