I know it sucks that rare dont make the best games anymore, but at least theyre still around. MS realized theyre games werent selling and took the studio in a direction that saved 200 people theyre jobs. Now that Kinect games arent selling, they're letting the studio decide what next.
Thats how i like to see it, you're welcome to see nothing but negatives.
But who's counting, right?
It starts off great, unfortunately things only get inconsistent. One second im wandering in the tense, pitch black luring disturbing creatures into my traps, the next im on a banal turret section mowing down enemies meant to be intimidating while the framerate dips to 10.
But reviewers are missing the point for sure. Instead of bashing the cheesy voice acting (works for the game imo) and story they should be praising this game as the RE5 we've waited 10 years for.

Edit: screw it, gonna send this as a PM because youre veering off topic
Its an exclusive, of course it charted higher than crappy ports like AC.
I won't say anything until i see numbers, though i'll admit im pessimistic. In this case, i'd love to be wrong and see Bayonetta 2 become a sleeper hit.
Not sure why people disagree with wonderfulmonkeyman. There is a world outside of games, and equal pay, to this day, is an issue. I think that women cant put in the same amount of work as men and get the same amount of money is ridiculous.
These neo-feminists, making issues out of nonissues, are what give feminism a bad name.
I never take offense from a character like peach, especially since she is a product of her time, when character development in games was non existent. I definitely wouldnt want every character to be like Bayonetta haha.
I should elucidate, while a sexualized male character is largely ignored i certainly wouldnt want that to be an issue. I was just saying feminists were being counterintuitive by disparaging a character like Bayonetta. There are too many big-titted, useless, w...
Lol, like platinum is advertising the game.
It still stands that if Nintendo had a problem with it, they wouldve pulled it and this would be a totally different article.
So you would define nintendo as "kiddy"?
The character is never fully nude in the game, THAT would be kind of pointless.
Let me just say i transcended any superficial judgements i had on nintendos games through many hours of adversity. Namely:

Yeah, it's a slimy move, i agree.
They probably had a higher build quality for display from the beginning, let's be honest.
But Nintendo's been cutting costs a lot lately... they minimized the paper in their game cases now with no manuals and printing the club nintendo codes on the back of the insert.
I don't think the toys look fast food restaurant bad though. Look better than the Skylanders or Infinity toys.
This was a great article, i like seeing the different takes. This will always be a difficult topic, but the way i see it, a sexist female character is one that is constantly under the order of men, or exists solely to be sex appeal. Megan Fox's character from the Transformers movies always struck me that way for example.
But Bayonetta, while sexually charged and meant to be attractive, does have a caring personality and a good sense of humor. She also never stops at achie...

I have it before Resogun. I put them all in order.
@martinez
Im sure sony and MS will both have more games on the list by next year. But pikmin 3 and SM3DW were both out in wii u's first year.
LBP3 could very well steal top or second knowing that series' critical history. Now that i think about it cross gen games count, just not HD remakes.
So the top ten is
SM3DW
Bayonetta 2
Mario Kart 8
Pikmin 3
Forza Horizon 2
Titanfall
Resogu...
@ghostface
I was referring to games you cant play anywhere but next gen. Those games are both on last gen. Forza Horizon 2 is very fun from what i played though
Wii U now owns 4 of the top 5 highest rated next gen exclusives.
SM3DW
Bayonetta 2
Mario Kart 8
Pikmin 3
Resogun (PS4)
Might as well shove Smash bros in there too, reviews for it are just around the corner.
For what the Wii U lacks in quantity, it makes up for it in quality and variety
I had to go to three different game stores to find it! All they had was pre order copies
Its very good. Scariest out of all of them, id say. Its a long game and theres some tediousness in it, but its still miles ahead of most games these days. I say go for it.
I definitely disagree with Kotaku ranking 4 over 3. 4 is damn near broken with an awful framerate and impossible to 100% complete. 3 is at least a technically capable game with great ps2 visuals and progressive scan support.

Well said
Lol, i couldnt keep a straight face...
