TVG: Bayonetta Review

Bayonetta is nothing short of a hardcore gaming masterpiece. As he originally did nearly a decade ago with Devil May Cry, Hideki Kamiya has once again set the bar impressively high with the combat in Bayonetta, coaxing the likes of God of War III to come and have a go if it thinks it's hard enough. While the game is a little short on ideas when it comes to its puzzles, the fact that Bayonetta holds up a mirror image of its sadistic lead character in the punishing gameplay itself is enough to keep us coming back again and again.

I thought it was an overhyped turd. No replayability. Totally over the top I mean her hair is a weapon. It is the perfect game to get for any teenage girl you know.

GameOn5596d ago

These games are always over the top. I for one am looking forward to playing though the full game and I'm not your average teenage girl.

Xakep5596d ago

Just the fact that you said it has no replayability proves you haven't played the actual game, perhaps just the demo. Alfheim, hidden verses, LPs, difficulty levels, getting Pure Platinum on each chapter etc. much?
Don't get mad because it doesn't feature sweaty half naked dudes growling and hugging creatures.

This is def one of the best action hack & slashers I've ever played. It might even be number #1 from beginning to end. Defense, Offense, The Bayonetta character(plenty of Sex appeal, I was surprised), Evade, (voices were well done) and Story.

Though this game is more of an evade more then defense, while NG is more of both.

There actually is plenty of replay Value. I'm gonna start Darksiders and try Hard mode and get some extra weapons later. I been on some other forums and there are many PS3 gamers enjoying this game regardless of the loading time, which seems to be the most annoyance.

Goes to show you the father of the DMC series knows action. Hideki Kamiya is genius.

This game is def AAA/10 in my book, now I know why the reviews were so good. I dare anyone to go ahead and play DMC4 and tell me this game is not better with a straight face...lol Though DMC3, I think is better than 4. I can't fully compare this game to GOW since, well just like I couldn't with NG the Gameplay/Battle is more over the top/Techinical while GOW is more cinematic and more of a WOW factor.

The soundtrack is good as well. Very Jazzy. "Fly me to the moon"(Ending tune) plays well with this title and the End Boss tune is sweet..

Anyhow get this fn game. Holy Cow what a game.

I could definitely see a Bayonetta/Dante game. Imagine them initially battling each other before eventually teaming up to take on the big baddies. Now, imagine what their child(ren) would be like.

-Foxtrot83d ago (Edited 83d ago )

Bayonetta and Dante I could see but even then with how their lore differs it's a hard sell. For the others...I just can't see it at all.

I feel he's just saying whatever comes to him online

Same universe doesn’t mean same world or galaxy

SeTTriP82d ago

Bayonetta is a witch who enter contracts with demons for power and Dante is a demon, not really hard to connect.

They could even write in an alliance between the umbra witches and sparda.

-Foxtrot82d ago

On the surface yeah but the actual lore the two games have given us if you go into it...not so much.

micdagoat1982d ago

would be great if switch 2 upgrades resolution and frame rate on bayonetta 2

Dying at 61 in Japan is too young.

Major is definitely one of my all time favourite anime characters so this is really sad
