1up show I believe. It's definitely the 1up guys either way. That was probably the best part of the interview though.Benjillion said:
I hope I don't have the same experience with Bayonetta as I've had with his previous games. I've only played DMC3+4, which he wasn't involved with. I've only watched RE2 being played by a friend when it came out & played a few minutes here & there (I have fairly good knowledge of the innards of it now though). Viewtiful Joe was really hard (
) until I picked it up again a year later after collecting some dust on the shelf. I only played 10 hours of Okami before putting it on hold & restarted again this year & completed it. So all in all, I've never fully committed myself to his games after buying them until months/years later. Hopefully Bayonetta will break that trend.beelzebozo

has anyone who thought DMC3 was a bit too tough or just not that enjoyable played this? what do you think of it? some background: huge fan of the original DMC, the first NG, disliked GOW, thought NG2 was a big disappointment, and so on.
fans of VIEWTIFUL JOE, i also want your opinions on how this is (though clearly the game is very different, i think liking VJ quite a lot indicates we may have similar tastes, or may be looking for similar things in a very good game)

I get a lot of the same vibe from Bayonetta that I got from Viewtiful Joe, in the sense of presentation.
That move where Joe strikes a pose, looks at the camera, and destroys everything on screen, that is very much in line with the kind of stuff I have seen from Bayonetta. Just total humorous indulgence.

yeah, it's not as godly. it's more godly.
In terms of pure combat, Bayonetta is probably a little tougher than DMC3 although the difficultly curve is much, much better. DMC3s enemies weren't too smart for the most part although they dealt a shit ton of damage when their attacks hit. The difference between DMC3 and Bayonetta is that Bayonetta is far, far more liberal with its checkpoints than DMC3, or any other action game on the market. Say for instance you're fighting a boss with multiple life bars and you got the boss down to its last life bar, you'll start at that life bar with full health if you die. Even with all of the forgiving checkpoints, it's still a fairly difficult game.beelzebozo said:

Hell yeah, the combat is incredible and everything is cancelable. Go play the demo, it's out on XBL and PSN.theluma said:

Oh I've played the demo, but there wasn't exactly a lot of enemies to fight. Certainly not enough to make me try to figure out some extra combos - just a demo after all. I did notice the amount of crazy combos available though. So is it satisfying being able to master the combat? I don't want to make a "sure there are heaps of moves but you never have to use more than three" argument because IMO that is extremely dumb. It's not important that you don't HAVE to use all these combos it's important that using all these combos makes for a much more satisfying experience.
So, is this the case in Bayonetta?

It's just pure fun for me to pull of these crazy combos and the customization is there because you can equip shit on her hands and feet for ultimate craziness. Try some more combos in the loading screens and tutorial and use the sword, it's crazy.
I see where you're coming from (i.e. GOW). Don't know about Bayonetta except from the demo, but in the first DMC, the moveset was there for a reason, not throwaway like in GOW since there were many different enemy types that required different strategies. DMC3 I believe suffered because of this lack in variety; it's been awhile but I can't recall any particularly standout enemies like ones in DMC1 (shadow hounds, phantoms, etc.)theluma said:

I have a PS3, a Wii. I intend to get a 360 just for Bayonetta ( I can afford it ). Is it worth it?

So can we finally say Kamiya > Itagaki?

It's almost certainly using the hard drive as a cache then.a Master Ninja said:
I guess MS still haven't exposed the installed status of a game to the developers. Either that or your hard-drive is fragmented.

You're doing the right thing.
theluma said:
PS3 ver: framerate ranging from 20 fps to 30 fps, 50% screen tear rate, worse textures and long ass loading to boot.
Xbox360 ver: 60 fps and none of the above mentioned faults.
Others will swear that the game is still playable and it probably is, but ask yourself this: "Do I really want to play the gimped version of the Action Game of the Forever ?"

Always. Itagaki's games are broken. He must learn what is the difficulty curve. And it isn't related to boobs.Angelus Errare said:So can we finally say Kamiya > Itagaki?
1up Show. I can't remember the episode. Look for Platinum interview.Benjillion said:
FPS and screen tear data is false, even for the Japanese demos. And overseas PS3 demos were improved, so I assume the PAL/US PS3 release code too.Dave1988 said:
360 version is better, sure. But if I was you I would get the 360 for Gears, Dead Rising, Halo, etc. They deserve to buy the console.Saargabath said:
Some FPS more, some better tearing, a bit better textures and loading times in a single multiplatform game I think doesn't deserve to buy a console just for this. PS3 version -at least the demo- isn't that bad. But if you finally buy the 360, buy this version.

VJ, to me, is still one of most balanced games of its sort. If you died in that game, it really was due to your own fault, and not utilizing Joe's moveset to its fullest.
Now that he's gone back to the DMC formula once more with Bayo, I really could stand to see what he had in store for VJ3. Whether Capcom actually is willing to play ball with him or not...I'd even be willing for him to start over with a new IP and adapt the new ideas to that, if nothing else is possible.
On the other hand, I REALLY want to see what Kamiya could do with that "Umbran Fighter" idea that he talked about on his last blog. Kamiya? Doing a Vs. Fighting Game?
...He may be the kind of guy who could breathe new life into that genre, too...

Well this thread is going places.
You are not worthy of your username.

Err my reasoning is buying a console for one game that is already playable (yes, playable) on a console you own isn't a smart purchase.
But then again he said he can afford it, and most of GAF can relate, considering how many people have multiple consoles, so if you feel the need to go right ahead.
