Clover studios closed down

They had some pretty inventive games.
I wonder if this means that Okami will never never see a release in Europe or will capcom still publish it?

Bad news but was probably inevitable. When joe public has the choice of a new, excellent and inventive game such as Viewtiful Joe or Okami he will always take the latest Fifa instead. It's a monument to never underestimating the stupidity of the general public.

I hope Capcom don't start changing the type of games they make. Capcom along with Konami and Nintendo are one of the few big developers that bring out innovative and challenging games. I hope Grasshopper studios don't go the same way.

I'd say Capcom will still publish Okami here.

This is very bad news indeed, we still better get Okami.

Nooo!!! Why did they have to wait until February 07 to release Okami; us sophisticated Europeans would have bought enough copies to keep Clover in business!

... they better still be on schedule to release. That or Nintendo pick it up to showcase the functionality of Wii (though I'd hate to think how long it'd be delayed then...)

Argh, I'm looking forward to Okami. Curses.
