Hope it runs locked 60fps with no tearing. I so wanted this game to get a remaster on next gen consoles, so this is the best thing to happen to it in the interim.........

Oh snap I had no idea they finally fixed that!

Nothing for me here, but happy to see they're still pushing.

They really need to give that IP another chance

I can all but guarantee you that's not happening.

Hopefully we get Vesperia and Nier as well soon.

The same as Xbox One, likely with further framerate improvements (I imagine they might be able to most games running locked at their respective framerate caps - at the very least no more emulation-specific dips) and maaaaybe some improved upscaling (no uprendering). I wouldn't expect anything crazy since there's not a whole lot that's worth doing that also wouldn't potentially cause issues that would require extra, game-specific work.

I really don't see why it should not, XB1-S is more powerful than Wiiu and the game was unlocked on the 360 with a 60fps cap.
What? You said you played through rdr some time ago via bc but now with bayo, it's worth it?

No it's not.
My dream is Microsoft will magically unlock the frame rate on all 360 games - third party included - to get 60fps across the board....but that makes no logical sense.
Scorpio probably guarantees that all 30fps-targeted 360 games are truly locked at 30fps. If Scorpio sports a new CPU (to go with increased memory), maybe we'll always get faster loading times. And just a reminder that current XB1's have Vsync to help with 360 screen-tearing.
BC games on Scorpio will run better than they ever had...but its still just emulation software that won't attempt to tweak the base game.

If Bayonetta were being run on the hardware as a new native XB1 port or remaster (as in, not through 360 software emulation) a locked 60fps would be pretty much guaranteed. But it's not.
I mean, if Bayo on XB1 runs at a locked 60fps, I'll buy the game for a third time.

If they can get the rest of the Sega/Platinum games on here I'll buy a One instantly.
Well, SEGA is currently exploring options for porting titles like Bayonetta for PC.
Once it comes to PC, we will most likely see it being remastered for consoles as well. Including hopefully 1080P/60fps HDR support.

It has odd drops during cutscenes, but the framerate is much, much more consistent. Her chapter 1 summon at the fountain supports this, lots of places that had big drops aren't there.
There were also no tearing.
Input lag was mainly an issue with Unreal engine games and even those got fixed when the emulator was patched.
It's a cache issue for sure.
I've just played an hour for capture and it's been nearly perfect throughout.
We saw some users encounter this with Forza Horizon as well.
It's a bug in the BC not a problem with the emulation of this specific game.

Did you try bullet climax? That would cause slowdown everytime i used it.

Same. Vanquish, Bayo, and MGR have aged very well.
Monocle

Yeah, surprisingly so. It's going to be great to play Bayonetta with the more ergonomic XB1 controller.
I hope MGR is next.

Are you a preview member? Do you have the current preview dashboard installed? The one with clubs and LFG?
It should include a fix for the bc framerate/stuttering.
Bayonetta ran like this yesterday (without the update):

I got the update today but I haven't checked Bayonetta yet.
Hmmm........this could be why I could barely play Far Cry : BD then?, is there any easier way of clearing cache than the power lead hokey cokey?
There was a Clear Xbox 360 Cache option, but they must have renamed it to "Clear local Xbox 360 storage" with one of the newer updates. Be careful, though. It deletes offline profiles and savefiles, so make sure you have a cloud save on the Xbox 360 games you play. Should be synced automatically, if you play online.

Will there be a DF comparison with the WiiU release or will this be X1 vs X360 like the other BC videos?
I think a lot of fans would appreciate the former!

This is good news! Can't wait for the comparison (if it happens). Really wonder how good it runs!
OrbitalBeard

Not surprised about no tearing, as I'm pretty sure all (or most, maybe?) BC games lack it.
Also good to hear about the improved framerate, but I highly doubt it's a locked 60. If it is, that's incredible and would literally be the first non-PC Platinum game to achieve it.

Member
I hope the DF comparison includes XB1S and Wii U captures.
Good lord.
I am actually in the preview program so that might explain the lack of issues. That looks awful and I certainly haven't encountered anything like that.

Do high level Bayonetta players prefer the 360 version over Wii U?
sixteen-bit
Member
I believe yoshesque does
OrbitalBeard
Member
I would assume a decent amount prefer the 360 game based on the controller alone.
Halo: Reach and Gears 3 still play horribly.

Looks quite cinematic imo.
I'm on the preview dash and it runs fine. Had slowdown during some cutscenes in the prologue but gameplay has been smooth.
I always hear ppl say this but I never played any BC games with noticeable input lag. I have played fighting games, racing games, and shooters. Didn't notice anything. What games did you get lag with?
