I don't know if you're a dude or a chick but it needs to be said that even though he's bald, Hideki Kamiya's is not gay. (Warning, this is a kotaku link).

Nope, just on backgrounds.
I'm trying to remember, was Infinite Space the only Platinum Games DS game? I thought it did "decent" (slight euphemism) considering it had no hype (whether justified or not) and little awareness both here and abroad.
Anyway, any Platinum is good Platinum!~
Is he plugging Bayo's holes?

Infinite Space isn't even really a Platinum Games title. It's entirely developed by Nudemaker. Platinum Games simply produced it because they're good friends with Nudemaker and wanted to help them get their game made.

I agree, but I want MGSR and Bayo 2 / Bayo spinoff before.Come on.
Next week... in games magazines. *runs*
Stealth edit: I know I was beaten, but it is so much fun.
Hah!
While you're here, I've been meaning to ask - who translates the director's commentary? Is that you JP?

Resident Evil 6 developed by Platinum.....
Kamiya, not Kojima
nope, he might be right
Yeah this for sure. I want something so similar to the combat style of Bayonetta and it can still be wacky and zany but I wouldn't mind characters or a plot I could relate to a little more.

After Sega's last Golden Ax attempt, I think it would be better to let the property stay dead. Or at least, fallow for a few more years. And Kamiya has repeatedly expressed "NO INTEREST" in taking up the reigns of something like Shinobi.
Of course, as much as Kamiya loves his corridor shooters, it'd be funny if he got to do Panzer Dragoon. :lol
New Bayo game, please. But anything Kamiya directed is day one for me
Matches my sentiments exactly! H Y P E!

Neat. I'm hyped for Anarchy Rings in the mean time.
I really effing hope the new game doesn't have any of this.
Make one of the best and most epic boss fights ever but preface it by a long ass on rails shooter segment? gtfo

Kamiya hasn't directed a sequel to one of his games during his entire career, why would he do Bayonetta 2?

Mikami did Vanquish, so I wouldn't want Kamiya to make it.
Looking forward to his project and anything else Platinum Games will do this year (yes, that includes Anarchy Reigns).
I think he has always wanted to, but they never gave him a chance or something
Pretty much. He's reiterated more than once that he would have loved to work on DMC2. But by the time DMC1 had barely finished, Capcom had already assigned another team to work on it.
Similarly, Capcom, in typical Capcom fashion, had already given orders for Clover Studios to give Viewtiful Joe the "Megaman" treatment. But Kamiya himself hadn't worked on any of the VJ sequels.

Mikami did Resident Evil, and Kamiya did the kickass Resident Evil 2.
Lighting can't strike twice?
Nah, he still wrote the scripts for VJ2 and DT. Nothing more than that, though.

Ehhh... yes, it's expected from him as he LOVES classic games. So I really wouldn't look too much into it ;P
Besides, on this war of exclusives Nintendo is currently waging, it would've been announced already.
On topic: FUCK YEAH. Bayo 2 or whatever, most anticipated announce for me!
Yup. Besides Miyamoto, Kamiya has the best track record of any developer ever. He's got that midas touch.

Nintendo X Platinum Games double deal!
Star Fox Climax for Wii U
3D Classics: Star Fox for eShop
I'd rather see him remake RE 2.

Always happy to see I'm not the only one.
Most anticipated game of 2012 so far.(Alongside VF5)
He expressed interest in a DMC and Okami sequel, but DMC was given to another team and he left Capcom soon after making Okami.
He worked on the scripts for VJ2 and DT like others have said tho. Which is why he still has interest in working on a VJ3, while he has said he no long wants to work on DMC or Okami since other people have had hands in the stories of those worlds.
That said I remember reading an interview around the time that Bayonetta was coming out that said he wanted to take a break from action games after Bayonetta.(He had gotten action games "out of his system" for the moment.) So if he wasn't trolling on twitter when he said he began to work on his next project before bayonetta even released, there's a pretty good chance it's not Bayo 2.
I'm going to try and find it.
I think I remember that which you speak of. I just hope that, again, even if he decides to take a break from the "Stylish Action" genre, it may not mean taking a break from action games, as a whole.
After all, I still would like another take on the Viewtiful Joe formula, if he was up to such. Or maybe something action-RPG in tone?
