Via Wario64 and the GWG thread.



Come and get it. I know this will make quite a few happy.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Never played, will check it out. Thanks!

 

[Yearsoflurking]

And bought! Thanks

 

[Pajamas]

One of the best games of that generation

 

[Lucian]

I love me some "free" games.

 

[Lorul2]

On the fence. Is it worth $9.99 = month of gold?

 

[backflip10019]

Psyched to finally play this.

 

[mindsale]

Is the Wii U version better performing than the 360 version? I know it played like ass on PS3.

$10 is a fair price for the best console version of Bayonetta.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Thanks OP!

Also curious about this!

Is xbox live different that PS Plus? On ps plus you lose access to the game if not subscribed. Do you keep it forever on XBL?

You keep 360 games forever regardless of subscription status. XB1 titles work like plus though.

Iirc xbox live lets you keep 360 games but not xbone one games

From memory for the console versions of Bayonetta:

360 via Xbox One > Wii U > 360 >>>>> PS3

DF had a good frame rate test video.

 

[borges]

And bought! Thanks

Always sound weird to 'buy' something for 0.00.

DF says the XB1 BC is the best console version of Bayonetta.

Holy shit, this is huge news. I might sub just to have this for when I get a One X.

 

[Tenshin]

At last! Been months bitchin it never goes on a sale now free? Thanks MS!!

A transaction has occurred nonetheless.

THE SHADOW REMAINS CAST

 

[Crazyorloco]

Never played this. Thanks! I barely ever check these games with gold things.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

It is free though.

Even if your gold lapses, you get to keep Bayonetta. You're not "renting" it like Xbox One and PS3/4 games.

 

[mrmickfran]

Best game of all time.

Getting it for free is robbery.

 

[Keinning]

I remember playing the demo and that was it
First time i'll beat it, seems fun

It is free though.

Don't go down this rabbit hole, nothing of value will come from there

Let's just keep the quotes and have a peaceful thread for once

 

[Khaos Kontrol]

Solid but highly overrated (as Platinum Games is in general) game IMO.

Still worth checking out if you haven't played it.

 

[D3VI0US]

Solid but highly overrated (as Platinum Games is in general) game IMO.

Agreed, I loved DMC1-3 and Ninja Gaiden but just never really got into this series. Might give it another shot but maybe I'm just over the genre. Bayo is more polished tan DMC but at the time it wasn't the next gen leap I was looking for, felt like more of the same.

I'd say 360 > Wii U. The original DF face off when the Wii U version came out didn't really address the terrible slowdown during Witch Time, though it may run a tiny little bit better during normal fights. The newer DF video linked above after it came out on Xbone BC shows how bad the Wii U version is during Witch Time. Regardless, the Xbone BC version is the best console version.

Spoiler

the PC version is glorious at 4K60

[KratosEnergyDrink]

Every version haa slowdowns in Witch time. WiiU & X360 have equally bad slowdowns there, a big advantage of the WiiU version is full Vsync (no screen tearing) better shadows and better reflections (and additional costumes for Bayonetta).

 

[inner-G]

Would this have any advantages over the Steam version if you already have it?

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

There are 0 advantages

 

[oneida]

i fucking love this video game

Comfy Couch™

 

[dickroach]

I played the Wii U version for an hour or two last year. the loading times on the XOne version are a fraction of what they were there.

 

[Triple Oceans]

Oh wow, I need to see if I can get a 30 day free Xbox live card somewhere! Thanks for the PSA op!

 

[Persona7]

Would this have any advantages over the Steam version if you already have it?

Nope. Might as well cop it though while it's available if you have an xbox.

 

[Seik]

You ladies and gentlemen better grab this, this a good game.

 

[Regiruler]

You get to basically start with moon in the Wii U version though.

 

[Solidsoul]

I must thank you, as today my Gold expires and this thread led me to searching Xbox Store and claiming my free copy before tomorrow!

 

[BigEmil]

Would this have any advantages over the Steam version if you already have it?

No but the opposite is though, Steam port has alot of advantages over the 360 port

 

[ChamplooJones]

One of the GOAT action games staring one of the GOAT characters.

Baeyonetta lives!

 

[theWB27]

I shall download since I've never played it.

I can't find a direct comparison with the Fortitudo fight at the bridge, but I'm pretty sure the Wii U has worse slowdown than the 360. The Wii U just doesn't do well with heavy alpha effects.

 

[Drewfonse]

I immediately thought of how disproportionately small her head is. I have no idea why. Great game.
