This week's UK entertainment software chart (all formats, all prices) makes us sad. It makes us sad because no matter how hard we look at it we can't see Okami anywhere. One of the most utterly original and delightfully entertaining games to ever bound its way to PS2 has vanished just two weeks after its debut at number 12, before sliding to 30 and, now, it's plummeted with a forlorn howl into the abyss...

Little Britain: The Videogame, on the other hand, is still doing good business. It's enjoying its fourth week in the charts (it's currently at number 18) despite the fact that it's complete toss. Released a week earlier than Capcom's masterpiece, Little Britain defied - and defiled - belief by reaching the number two spot. Number two. That's very, very nearly number one.

We know it's ten quid cheaper and it's on PS2 and PC and yeah but no but yeah but no Vicky Pollard is like well hard, but Little Britain outselling Okami is a tragedy beyond words.... It's the ugly truth about the state of UK gaming.

This seems to be a result of the shift away from "hardcore" gamers to more casual gamers.

I'd never heard of Okami, what is is like?

yup casual games are becoming the main stable for portable systems....i think thats why the ds does so well.

It's exactly why the DS has done so well. As well as the uptake by the fairer sex. The PSP is by and large a boys toy where the DS is a much more lady friendly platform, damn females. LOL no offence meant to any female members
