so...not a wii fan, then.
those of you still harping on FF XII: did you really use two hands to play before? i would walk, hit X during fights, walk some more. you put too much effort in prior to XII.
Indigo i get (though that basketball game bit fucked me up), but DMC? if you can beat DMC 3 one handed, shit, respect.

QFT.
this shit is echoing the "should games be made for the 18-35 demographic" thread of shitting on other people's choices.
this plus itakagi throwing up in ferrari made me glad i showed up.

People complain about the lack of options, then when there's an option people make up excuses to hate on having that option.

Great, I can troll this game on GameFAQs while playing at the same time!

Seeing as how you apparently know more about the situation than I, maybe I should let you explain it to me.GuardianE said:
The guy is interested in action games on a visual level, and when he sees me playing them he sometimes wants to pick up the controller himself. Even though all of his attempts to date have ended in frustration or disappointment, he's still attracted to the idea of playing through a good action game. His problem is he doesn't have the patience or coordination to do so. Bayonetta's going to solve that problem for himmaybe even prompt him to make a serious attempt to learn the standard controls.

Has anyone else confirmed that the game is going to be region locked? I saw this and I am curious.

Well, we can only comment based on your description. Don't blame me if your description of the situation was inaccurate.
You posed the situation as though it was your endeavor to teach your friend the joys of action gaming and he was not "interested" in any of the games you listed, all of which are leaders in the action game genre. You made it sound like he doesn't care for them at all, and the added difficulty made the initiative even more futile.
1) 99% of the people who are in this thread and on these boards will not be using this mode if they do in fact place the $60 in it for the purchase.
2) Having this mode doesn't make this game any shallower. In fact, Automatic mode has been in these games since DMC1 (and earlier but let's keep it in the same genre) and it basically boiled down combat to button mashing a single or double buttons at the most. Bayonetta takes it one step further by making it into a mode that virtually any one on this planet could beat.
3) Continuing with my point from before, the game will offer modes resembling Master Mode/Dante Must Die in difficulty level. This is staple stuff from Kamiya, there is almost always an insanely hard difficulty level in his games for those looking for mastery and challenge. At its core, this is still a game targetted mainly at the 18-35 year old male audience who have been gaming practically all their life.
4) IT. IS. OPTIONAL! Unless they do it like in DMC1/DMC3 where if you die too many times and you get switched to an easy mode, usually permanently. I remember people having a hissy fit because their ego couldn't take it when they were advised by the game to go easy mode in DMC3.

I love how people are honestly losing their minds over a "easy mode" of a videogame...:lol
You don't feel the need to use it, then don't. I'm sure there will be players out there who will...

I just think this is a hilarious slap in the face to anyone playing easy mode because PG/Kamiya were just like "fine, here's a mode so easy that you pussies won't have any fun with it."
