PSM3: Bayonetta review

PSM3 through CVG writes:

"Before you write off Bayonetta as a straight Devil May Cry clone, a weird Japanese hack'n'slash, or another sad attempt by a game to be sexy - STOP. Although it has elements of all these things, Bayonetta rises above such simple classification by being the boldest, most explosive and downright unashamed game we've played for years. It isn't a whacky genre game - it actually defines the genre it sits in.

On the surface, Bayonetta rightly draws comparisons to the likes of Ninja Gaiden, Dante's Inferno and Devil May Cry. At the core of the experience you're pushing face buttons to create combos that devastate your opponents. There are a huge amount of moves available, and you can switch weapon sets mid-combo to create an almost infinite string of blows. And it's all seriously easy to execute."

Verdict:
Overall Sexy, epic and wonderfully ridiculous - a slick action game.

the game is fun but i think GOW3 & lord of shadow are more better.

GOW3 & lord of shadow are day one for me and i well get Bayonetta when the game are less than 30$ or i may skip 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.

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

SeTTriP480d 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.

-Foxtrot480d ago

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

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

Dying at 61 in Japan is too young.

I saw this on an anime site yesterday. She had an awesome voice. RIP

Chevalier653d ago

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

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