D+PAD: Bayonetta Reviewed

Tipped as a spiritual successor to the popular demon-slaying franchise Devil May Cry, the Platinum Games developed Bayonetta has received much attention from the gaming press, in turn becoming one of the most anticipated games of 2010. While Bayonetta does indeed feature a combat system akin to the series from which it's been inspired, anyone hoping for a successor in more traditional terms will find themselves bemused, confused and utterly overwhelmed by what's on offer. Bayonetta is daft, overtly sexual and so incredibly camp that using the term 'unconventional' would already make for understatement of the year. The game is also highly enjoyable when accepted as the deviant and over-the-top piece of entertainment it is, even if certain aspects of its design result in a few unpalatable moments.

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

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.

-Foxtrot454d ago

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