Why? You ask that of a company in today's world?
You thought Dante was badass? Well wait'll you see Bayonetta
-
-
Not patches alone, no. With all the DLC, additional features, and fixes, yes.
Like how Gears of War 2 GOTY, Little Big PLanet GOTY,,etc had a re-release of thier games? that had all the DLC and Fixes? I can see that.
-
Yeah, but I doubt Bayonetta is going to be a GOTY.
-
I am SOOOO hyped about this game, though I got the red ring of death on my 360 so I gotta get it fixed FAST!!
-
^ Agreed. Here in the UK the game has been advertised since Mid-December. WHich is all well and good apart from the fact taht it's not released till mid-jan. Does look a lot of fun tho.

Square Enix Play Arts Posable Bayonetta and Jeanne figures (no release date announced yet)
http://kotaku.com/5435336/a-bayonetta-you-can-touch-and-pose/gallery/
I'm really more interested in seeing the one from Kotobukiya. Still nothing on that one yet.
EDIT: Still can't get past 450 Gigatons on Beloved in the Demo. And them stupid angels in verse 2 keep screwing over my Pure Platinum run because one of them has to hit me somehow. Oh well. I'm still trying to get Pure Platinum Medals and a Pure Platinum Award but man is it a pain in the ass.
This guy makes it look so easy

! Another Father Rodin Video. After seeing this, I'm gonna dodge like hell when I fight him.
! iqHqsasKTIg -
I didn't realize till I looked at those figures that Bayonetta and Jeane have reversed color schemes. This is a very common thing to do, but it still manages to slip past me.
-
Just got the game, it plays fine but there are some odd loading times…
Still fun so far, I suck at DMC-like games when it comes to comboing but that shouldn't be a trouble here so long as I dodge properly. -
This, or Darksiders
This or Darksiders
Damn it, why are they both released on the same day -
Tizoc which ver you playing? I just got the game right now and will be playing it in a bit. :D
-
@ZeArmyOfHalen:
This, or Darksiders
This or Darksiders
Damn it, why are they both released on the same dayget this.
it's design is way better than the World of Warcraft inspired look of Darksiders.
Besides… Bayonetta's combos run circles around the other's hack & slash
-
If I'm going to have to choose between those two I think I will go with Darksiders. I like really Zelda style adventure stuff with puzzles and exploration, and I'm actually digging Darksiders' cartoony visuals. Might be a surprise hit, that one. At least it has gotten very positive hands-ons so far.
Although I will wait until there will be a demo and reviews of Darksiders before buying anything. And, yeah, I can't really bring myself to enjoy the demo of Bayonetta :unsure:. But I think I will give the real deal another try at some point. Since it's been getting really good reviews and all.
-
Tizoc which ver you playing? I just got the game right now and will be playing it in a bit. :D
European ver. =3
Someone at another forum, got Darksiders and commented on how it had this one combo that was the most useful or somesuch, I'll try to rent it if it gets out here and see for myself.
-
Just saw the commercial on Comedy Central. That was a tight commercial.
It came on after a Girls Gone Wild one.

I could never find it at all on TV.
-
So are there any fixes for the bullshit loads yet? I've been without PS3 for two weeks.

That's the one. I never liked that song till I saw this.
-
So are there any fixes for the bullshit loads yet? I've been without PS3 for two weeks.
Those are in the JP version as well? They're present in the European ver., which I feel can be fixed by have Game data saved in the HDD; there weren't any load times/messages when I played the demo.
-
I haven't noticed any lag in the 360Ver. Plays quick and thats even before I have installed it. Gonna see how fast it is with it installed.
-
Well the main reason the 360 doesn't have those issues is, IIRC, because the game was designed based on 360 hardware? The reason with the frame rate issue with the PS3 ver. is because SEGA fucked up the conversion from the 360 to PS3. I read that Sony is helping out to fix it though.
-
I'd like to hope that a HD install would help some the conversion problems on the PS3 version, but i'm also doubtful. I also haven't read any as-of-late news regarding the US release being fixed… and seeing how i've already physically held one of the sealed copies in our store's back room pretty much tells me it isn't being fixed.
A patch would be nice... but this seriously is affecting my decision to purchase what otherwise seems to be an awesome game
dammit
-
Ain't nothing wrong in waiting for the patch to come out; by then the game would get a price drop.
This year has a lot of interesting games to get, and all the money in your av may not be enough to make you get them all and other life essentials ;3; -
Several online stores seem to have Bayonetta's introductory price as $47.99, including GameFly if you rent it and choose to keep it.
-
Really liking the game so far. The motorcycle part is fun just wish it wasnt so long @_@.
I'm on Chapter 9 so I'm close to beating the game.
-
I picked up Bayonetta finally. I was the first person in GameStop. The guy behind the desk said that there were only 12 copies of the game and 10 of them are on reserve. I might install the game on the HDD. Anyhow, I can't wait for this fight:

-
Ummm…you can't install the game in the PS3 version...hopefully a future patch will resolve this ^_^;;;
-
That 561 KB HDD must be the space it takes up. Guy behind the desk lied to me. Was wondering about that. The cool part: Custom Soundtrack.
-
I GOT BAYONETTA IN THE MAIL FROM GAMEFLY! This FastReturn thing they set up with the US postal service is awesome, I figured I'll be waiting 10 days instead of 5. Good thing I only put Wolverine in the mail yesterday morning, or Bayonetta would have been skipped. Guess I'll be playing it next week.
-
The final Jeanne fight was amazing. I'm on chapter 15 now and hoping im close to the end @_@
-
so for those who've bought the ps3 version. How is it in yer opinions?
I still have beef.. but damn is my wallet itching to pick this bitch up
-
It's ok. As usual, the load times are an ass. I'm just enjoying the gameplay right now. Stuck on the Alphiem Portal with Limited Punches and Kicks.
-
I'll let you know, but like I said, it'll be a week or so.
EDIT: Aaaaaaaaaaaand, nevermind.
-
Just beat the game. I love the Credits. It's like the game never wants to end :D
Gonna start my second go soon :D
-
Man that Alphiem Portal with Limited Punches and Kicks is an ass. Still can't beat it. Got 10 Trophies so far. I was surprised to get the 2 Witch Time Trophies at the very beginning back to back.
-
It's ok.
really? you've been going on about this game for a couple months now and "it's ok"?
lol, you've got me a bit worried now.
Well, i'm off to work, so i'm gonna bite the bullet and get the game. I hope the technical issues aren't as bad as the game sites make them out to be.
It looks like something i'll enjoy regardless. just watched a clip of the boss you fight…
[hide] on a surfboard [/hide]
-
I was only hyped because I wanted an exciting PS3 game to play. That or I flip-flopped on my opinion. Who knows. But in all honesty, the only reason I say it's ok is because the final boss was a BIG letdown for me.
EDIT: GameSpot reviewed both ports of Bayonetta. They gave the 360 ver. a 9.0 end it's GS's first Editor's Choice game of 2010. The PS3 ver. got an 8.0 (was originally 8.5 but they later changed it).
-
Gekko, I dunno if you read my opinion back when I got it, but back when I first played it, it was easily my favorite game of 2009. It's amazing. However, no matter how much you can deal with the loading in the start, eventually it will get to you. It's really, really, REALLY bad. They NEED to fix it. I dunno about framerate or slowdown issues, I never experienced anything that ever detracted from my enjoyment to that end, but the loading is miserable.
-
@Gekko
! That boss fight is much fun but there are other ones that are much more fun and interactive than that one.
-
This loading is worrying me, PS3 has spoiled me. All the tolerance for loading I've built up over the decade, undone.
-
@Toshiya: Do you plan on fighting the hardest boss in the game?
! Father Rodin at the Gates of Hell
-
You now, yama. Bayonetta don't look half bad in your avatar, too bad she doesn't look like that all the time.
-
Just beat Fortitudo. Almost got a Pure Platinum Medal on him but that Fireball attack of his after I cut off one of his heads got me. 19 Trophies so far. Doing pretty good. Got a Pure Platinum Award on the Prologue, a Platinum Award on Chapter 1, a Silver Award on Chapter 2 (that MF'n Alfhiem Portal with 7 punches and kicks keeps screwing me over), a Gold Award on Chapter 3 and a Silver Award on Chapter 4 (I'll try again later to Pure Platinum that chapter). Finally got Moon of Mahaa-Kalaa. The Counter Attacking looks to be a little harder than I expected. Very small time frame to perform it.
-
@Toshiya: Do you plan on fighting the hardest boss in the game?

I want to but I don't know how lol
oh how did you get Moon of Mahaa-Kalaa?
-
Bought it at the Gates of Hell under Accessories for 200,000 Halos. Yeah for that boss I wanna fight him toe-to-toe so I can get a Pure Platinum but he has one attack that takes out 99% of your HP. To fight him, you have to have at least 10,000,000 Halos and you have to purchase the Platinum Ticket at the Gates of Hell under Rodin's Treasures.
EDIT: Just beat Temperantia. Got a Gold Award on him. 27 trophies so far.

So is the collectors edition of this worth it? It's £39.99 (normal is £34.99) which is the same as the normal edition in most shops. You get a CD with the music on (no idea. Aint played the game so I dunno what the music is like XD) and an art book.
-
so I picked it up and as Greg has mentioned, the game is great! There really haven't been any frame-rate problems for me to cry about at all… the worst so far has been the opening scene with the falling clock tower. Everything after that has been lots of fun and running smoothly. The graphics are good and as long as I don't watch the 360 version, my thoughts on that will stay that way.
The loading is a bitch. No other way to put it. Just a fucking bitch. It's not so bad at first... but it's now grating on my nerves just to get through the menu to change my inventory.
but overall it's been a lot of fun so far. Quite hard at parts as well. I was getting gold and silver trophies at first... but lately i've been continuing and using items too much.

I was really excited about this game, but I can't believe Sega did such a terrible job on the PS3 version.
This is just so people know - I'm a huge fan of all of this director's past games, and a non-360 owner and this PS3 version is absolutely atrocious. At first it might not seem so bad, but then you see what the game is actually supposed to be like. The PS3 version has no color. It looks graphically worse in every way you can imagine - the entire game looks like it's being viewed through fog. The framerate never even comes close to being good. The 360 version is perfectly smooth throughout the entire game, but the PS3 version looks like a last-gen game. The loading is probably some of the worst loading I've ever seen in a game, and there's no install option. When a game takes five seconds to load the pause menu, you know there's a problem.
I can't recommend getting the PS3 version, no matter how much you're hyped for this game. If you do, you're telling Sega that it's okay to take a dump on PS3-only owners.
-
@Sir:
I can't recommend getting the PS3 version,
Not like you needed to do that the Demo and comparison videos suffice enough.
