GameZone: Bayonetta Hands-On Impressions

"Bayonetta's action unfolds in a very tongue-in-cheek way, with the title character blowing kisses at the screen and cheesy music playing in the background. The game definitely has a sense of humor about itself, but still manages to pack in a substantial amount of style.

The gameplay is noticeably similar to the Devil May Cry franchise, as Bayonetta combines a substantial amount of gunplay and melee combat, and some pretty awesome combos. Bayonetta can perform punches and kicks, as well as shoot her guns (which can be in her hands as well as attached to her feet), and perform air juggles. Dodging from enemy attacks is done by pressing the right trigger before an enemy attacks. Do this at just the right moment to activate Witch Time, which allows you to perform stronger attacks and slows down your foes to a crawl while you wail on them. "

SO looking forward to this. That said, I think Famitsu is full of it. No way it's a 10.

I played this the other day on the OXM magazine disk. I thought it was ok, not on my top 10

Caspel6003d ago

yeah, their 40/40 score is... well... out there haha

Kyrwolf6003d ago

premise sounds pretty good, and it looks good, but not sure how it plays out after more than an hour - that will be the telling mark of the 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.

-Foxtrot466d ago (Edited 466d 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

jwillj2k4466d ago

Same universe doesn’t mean same world or galaxy

SeTTriP466d 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.

-Foxtrot466d ago

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

Dying at 61 in Japan is too young.

Chevalier639d ago

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

FACTUAL evidence639d ago

Too many greats passed in 2024. Life is never promised. R.I.P
