Dante Posted November 21, 2009 Author Posted November 21, 2009 Clearly proving videogame journalists just need to get laid Nah, im sure its a fine game. Bayonetta creator is Hideki Kamiya aka Devil May Cry & Viewtiful Joe creator and made Resident Evil 2.
Wesley Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 I've completely ignored this game because it's a busty female wearing hardly anything, with guns, guns on her shoes, lots of focus on her ass and breasts, oh, and lots of average looking gameplay. But... it's good? Is there a demo out?
Dante Posted November 21, 2009 Author Posted November 21, 2009 (edited) The demo is out for Japan and the english demo is out for the people that become members of Sega's free pass.[Xbox360] Gamersyde Review VERDICT: Despite some weaker parts and a technical side not always at the top, Bayonetta easily becomes the new reigning king of the modern Beat'Em All genre. With a gameplay as deep as it is easy to understand, an incredibly varied arsenal and numerous enemies and bosses, Platinum released here nothing less than THE new reference. A game that no player that considers himself a gamer should miss.

But... it's good? Is there a demo out? You can download a demo and burn it to a disk, play it through an unmodded 360. It's been around for quite some time (if you go back through this thread to when a few of us had a go). It's good, but the demo doesn't really show enough diversity to warrant that Edge 10.
LegoMan1031 Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 I new nothing about this game until i watched the latest episode of Insiders on the 360, must admit it has my interest now and i shall be looking into it abit more! Is there a demo out? The insiders episode said there is a demo out on 360 on 03/12/09 (pretty sure it's that date... if not it was definatly early December time).

Dante Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 Yeah I mean to write God Of War than Gears Of War.
Tellyn Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I played it at the Eurogamer Expo. It seems EDGE picked up on something that I missed.

khilafah Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-bayonetta-faceoff Bayonetta kicks off with a level called the Falling Clock Tower, a name which only provides a very basic description of the sheer visual majesty to which you are witness. If you've played it in the 360 demo, you'll know that it's very, very special (though it's even better in the full game). It is also completely missing from the respective PS3 sampler, and looking at the final release, it is not difficult to see why. Frame-rate is often running at half the speed of the 360 version and the performance impact, combined with the sheer amount of stuff going on, essentially makes the PS3 version more confusing than playable: you're starved of visual feedback.
Shorty Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I really didn't think much of that opener. I think in the midst of hectic action, I'm not very good at giving a crap about the stunning visuals going on around me.
Tellyn Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Again, I didn't think much of the graphics either. Considering these are the guys who gave birth to Viewtiful Joe, Okami and MadWorld, it felt quite uninspired.

starscream316 Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 Does anyone know when the demo is out for this on PS3? I can't wait!!!
Roostophe Posted December 2, 2009 Posted December 2, 2009 On the PSN demo tomorrow. And Xbox Live. Which I'll be downloading and seeing what all teh goddamn hype is about.
Guest Stefkov Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 I had a chance to play this back in October but never really took notice of it (I say had a chance, I didn't. Queues were massive.) It really did look pretty fun to play, a lot looked like it was going on screen at a time and it looked similar to how ridiculously awesome Oneechanbara is. Yes I love that game. I'll have to get the demo for this.
Caris Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 This game is, fucking mental. Mind you the Japanese pop music that plays during battles is horrible.
MATtheHAT Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 Having played both demo's now on PS3 and 360, the 360 version is far superior. I can't normally tell between the versions, even if the disparity is quite big. But this is just ridiculous. This shit should not be happening now, maybe a couple of years ago yes, but not now. Loved the demo though, will definitely be picking it up (for the 360).
Caris Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 Thats only one of the 151 songs. Cheers Wikipedia.
