A weapon wheel would do wonders for this game! God if there would ever be a mod for this game please be this!

Bayonetta PC port gets updated... with a Vanquish teaser

If Sega is reading this, I'll join in on the port begging: Anarchy Reigns!!!!!! Plz.
Resonance of Fate's stylish acrobatics in 60 frames would be a dream. Sega just needs to port it all.
The PC port of Valkyria Chronicles got a nice budget release on PS4 several months after the Steam version dropped. There's no reason why Bayonetta and/or Vanquish shouldn't follow with PS4 and Xbox One versions, but I guess time will tell. It would be cool considering more people would get to play these great games, but let them release a PC version first to test the waters.

This and a mod that lets you use the suit with the limits removed like in the final bossfight would be wonderful.
Platinum will surely do it if they get payed for it, but that would be SEGA Japan/Americas decision and have nothing to do with Sega Europe.
You'd think so, but Valkyra PC did not have anything to do with Valkyria PS4. That one happened because Sega Japan wanted to bundle the Valkyria Revolution demo with something (a game that started development just before Valkyria PC and is therefore also not a response to it).

Bayonetta's already playable as backward compatible title on XB1
Playing Doom with the wheel made me realize​ how much I missed having all weapons on hand.
I thought of that as well but wouldn't it make the game too easy?
Thanks. I did not know that. I based my assumption off Digital Foundy VC face-off (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-valkyria-chronicles-face-off) and I thought it would be easier to port games to PS4/X1 from PC releases than PS3/360 originals due to architecture similarities, but that was always my guess (uneducated it seems).

Oh but excuse my rudeness kind sir.
Thank you!! I have the disc version of Bayonetta from the 360 days, I'll try it on Xbox One.
Well it's what every sane person would guess
I'm actually not sure if they leveraged the PC port for the PS4 version or if it's an entirely independent thing, but at the very least the decision to make it was not made after looking at VC PCs success.

Madworld was kinda boring after a while though. Soundtrack is still good though.
Definitely up for the others. Actually haven't played RoF in the hopes an even better PC port arrives.
Even though I'm a bigger fan of Bayo than Vanquish, a PC port of Vanquish is more exciting to me than the Bayo port. I think Vanquish has a whole lot more to gain from being on PC. It's super cinematic looking and with tonnes of pretty effects; I think it'll look amazing. I want to know what all those screen filling explosions look like without frame drops.
Mad World, Shenmue, Shenmue 2, Resonance of Fate, Catherine, and a bunch of Yakuza games. I think these all make sense for cheap but well done late ass ports. Certainly shouldn't be super hard. Okay maybe they lost the Shenmue source code.
Panzer Dragoon Saga when?
The only reason my XB1 is still hooked up is to play Catherine. Would love a port of that ha.
For Shenmue I think they need to go bigger than a simple cheap port. If you release them as is you run the risk of alienating a lot of potential new fans.
I think they need to at least add the QoL improvements from the second game to the first one, tweak the controls to be usable with twin sticks, and redub it, or at least offer dual audio (and probably retranslate it).

I think it's more simple than that.
Games like Bayonetta and Vanquish can now survive on PC -- at least, much better compared to seven/eight years ago. Metal Gear Rising showed that there is a massive interest in their software.
In any case, PlatinumGames' best software were always the SEGA titles. So much creativity and bound only by a budget.
I agree. Hopefully it'll be like Capcom's efforts with RE 4 Ultimate HD Edition where only a handful of alpha effects (and the damn sniper reload animation) are tied to 30 fps.

This. It's one if those games that make me consider buying an Xbox.

I'm in
This game was originally released just one year after the Bayonetta. But based on the GIFs and footage that i saw it looks so much better to me. I guess that's the price of targeting 60fps for Bayonetta vs 30fps for Vanquish.
Can't wait to play this game in 1440p and 60fps!

hope you'll like it! Simply the best TPS ever made IMO
Just got a press release regarding a new Bayonetta Dev Diary, ending with this sentence:
"Sega will announce more news regarding planned PC ports shortly."
Nice 👌

Would LOVE to see it ported, too, but the US version does run great on a 360.

The best Platinum game in my eyes. Really looking forward to this. I'm looking forward to the mod that lets you smoke through the entire game.

Is there any chance any of the Atlus stuff comes over or is that still a pipe dream?
You would think Persona 5 would make bank considering the hype and good reviews.
Vanquish was also subHD. A PC port would be revelatory.
I would explode if this happened.
I considered doing that but because I'm in a PAL region that's not an option. Game suffers from a major bug.

My thoughts exactly, environmentally it has so much scale and action going on around you that I would welcome even a 30fps cap if I get to see it in higher resolution with no screen tearing.

Definitely resonance. Somehow I never thought of Catherine but is welcome that as well.
persona, lol? Gimme 1-4.
Even if they don't change any of the assets, just breaking this out of the 720p jail of the 7th gen is more than worth the effort.
Mayhem like this needs all the resolution it can get.
I don't think this was even 720p. 540p is more like it.
