Bayonetta

Urser · 04-11-2009, 4:35 AM

Tyler showed me this game last night and I think it looks quite snazzy. It's an action game coming out for XBox360 and PS3.

Bayonetta is a stylish and cinematic action game, directed by Hideki Kamiya.

A witch with powers beyond the comprehension of mere mortals, Bayonetta faces-off against countless angelic enemies, many reaching epic proportions, in a game of 100% pure, unadulterated all-out action. Outlandish finishing moves are performed with balletic grace as Bayonetta flows from one fight to another. With magnificent over-the-top action taking place in stages that are a veritable theme park of exciting attractions, Bayonetta pushes the limits of the action genre, bringing to life its fast-paced, dynamic climax combat.

Very upbeat. Lotsa action, promoscuity, comedy.

Looks good.

I_Smell · 04-11-2009, 12:58 PM

I like that it's got the same THIS PARTY'S GET'N CRAZYZEH!! vibe that Devil May Cry's got, but it just seems a bit too ridiculous for me. And I don't like the sex thing. Like: Her suit's made of hair, but she uses hair to summon guys, so when you summon guys her suit comes off. No thanks.

Also I like that it looks like a parody of Ninja Gaiden and reminds me of God Hand.

This sounds like a pretty good game, I will probably rent it and decide from there wether or not I will buy this.

I'll pass on this one. From the text it was a very cool concept, but the videos did not fulfill the promise of the text expiations. It looks way to over the top, and the gameplay looks like it would be a C-rate game that I would play at a friends and then never want to see again. I know the action is supposed to be over the top, but that is just ridiculous.

hmn47 · 04-11-2009, 3:24 PM

Looks like shit. I'm going to pass,

Tyler_Legrand · 04-12-2009, 5:49 AM

Tengoku Gold was more ridiculous than this >:|

Have to admit it is a little over done but certainly looks interesting enough for me to get it. I'm pretty bored with all the first person shooters that are currently saturating my local gaming stores.

At first I didn't really like the whole stiletto shooter things but one of the scenes where shes full articulating her legs all over the place blaster angels got me liking them. The hair thing seems pretty cool too but I'm with smell on this one; the whole naked thing is kinda stupid.

Iceshade · 04-13-2009, 1:11 AM

I'm gonna have to give this a rental at best, it just doesn't look too promising to me.

lolguy · 04-13-2009, 9:24 AM

This looks allright. But her getting naked to summon things looks way too stupid. I'll just play it at a friends house.

El Zilcho · 04-14-2009, 10:49 AM

Her shoes are guns which, of course, she apparently never fucking misses with.

This game looks fucking stupid.

Tyler_Legrand · 04-14-2009, 12:09 PM

You mean this game looks FUCKING AWESOME

LOL

Don't you people know how to have fun anymore?

Not only do we have Bayonetta for mushroom cloud laying mother fucking we also have this:

Tweek · 04-14-2009, 12:23 PM

That's cool as shit. The idea is rad and although it isn't done as well as it could be (i.e. how I'd do it), judging by the trailers there, it is still awesome.

BKS · 04-14-2009, 1:31 PM

I'm more interested in Prototype than this. This just seems like its:
"HEY! WOULDNT IT BE COOL TO KILL SOMEONE WITH A GIANT GUILLOTINE?"
"But how would we get away with that?"
"DOES IT MATTER?! IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN ANYWAY"

Petey2112 · 04-14-2009, 1:35 PM

I agree with BKS, Prototype looks pretty sweet. Bayonetta looked decent, but just a bit too odd.

Matterialize · 04-14-2009, 3:33 PM

Well, looks like her naughty bits remain covered during those spells. You guys can go back to sleeping at night.

I'm at a loss at exactly what line a game has to cross before it becomes "too odd".

spaj · 04-17-2009, 9:32 AM

It looks awesome, though I wish it had a lot more gore :(

Petey2112 · 04-17-2009, 9:51 AM

Touche Tyler. Bayonetta just looks too fantasy for me I guess, its just a personal taste.

Urser · 05-30-2009, 3:07 AM

New trailer. Same old stuff, but still looks exciting.

The reason it has the same vibe as Devil May Cry is because the director of Bayonetta created Devil May Cry.

Dodger · 05-30-2009, 7:59 PM

I saw the Bayonetta trailer about 6 months ago and thought it looked awesome, but couldn't find anything on it so I stopped looking and completely forgot about it.

That said, it still looks absolutely great, you guys are stupid fags. Over the top, extravagant gaming is just as good as realistic, gory shooters.

I think this one.

Looks like this shit is going to kick ass boys. Also that chick in the costume is HOT.

istalklang · 11-03-2009, 9:56 PM

I can't wait for this. I ran across information about it a few days ago and man am I stoked! I'm a hardcore sucker for female leads, especially female leads with guns. I loved the high-fashion feel as well.

Sarge51 · 11-04-2009, 6:40 AM

Youtube appears to dislike my Country. I've been following it for months, though.

I was planning on picking this up for the 360 eventually. Looks like Bulletwitch, but without all of the suck. Too bad there's a ton of other games that I want more than this, though.

LandMarkMoon · 11-04-2009, 8:11 AM

Where is it you lived sarge?
