First teaser had me hyped but the screens look a little bit generic...hope the gameplay is different enough to keep me interested.

I like to think that the storylines are absurd and make no sense because no one really cares about their quality, the gameplay in these games comes first and everything else is just built around that.nilam01 said:It does explain the absurd storylines in both ninja gaiden and bayonetta.

Bayonetta had a good story too. Much better than FFXIII.

1) Bayonetta had a good story too. 2)Much better than FFXIII.
Oh no, their games sell on their great gameplay and not on their appeal to 13 year old American boys, what a crime.nilam01 said:They need to tone down the cheese a little, it's hurting their appeal in the west.

fuck that shit! i want normal people punching boulders inside volcanoes and hair dragons eating angles dammit.badcrumble said:Personally, I love the cheese, but I do agree that if they managed to tell a more Western-friendly story (so long as it didn't interfere with the flavor of the gameplay) their games might see much greater success. The story and art is the bait that you use to get people to try the fantastic gameplay. I've got plenty of friends who refused to touch Bayonetta because it 'looked weird.' Those people should have been customers.

Sounds fucking sweet.Roarer said:Swedish mag LEVEL has a 6-page preview of the game in their latest issue. They also interviewed Mikami and Inaba during a conference. A couple of highlights:
The game is a lot faster than traditional third person shooters. Sam can boost from cover to cover, quick tempo and intensity seems to be keywords when designing the game.
According to the article, the action is only ever paused to allow Sam to take a couple of drags on his cigarett (which apparently explains the low placement of his visor.
The game plays more like a shmup a la Sin & Punishment rather than Gears of War.
Sam carries one gun, which the suit can transform into another gun, for example a shotgun turns into a machine gun. Real-time weapon morphing?!
close quarter combat plays a major role.
Mikami admits that the game looks very similar to other shooters on the surface, but promises that the speed and tempo will set it apart.
Inaba says that "Mikami is free to do whatever he wants"
The author of the article is not too impressed by neither story nor cinematics and thinks that the game works best when it focuses on the intense action.
Mikami opens the conference by saying "Is there anyone from IGN here? Thanks for that God Hand review". :-D
All in all it looks pretty awesome, hoping it will deliver a solid gameplay experience a la God Hand.

Decado said:How brutal is the combat? I think I heard that you fight against robots, so they should let you go all out.
Explains so much about the previous comment. So much.nilam01 said:God of war 3
If it does go the Casshern route as someone suggested, this could end up being more brutal than Madworld despite the lower rating. I wish. :lolDecado said:How brutal is the combat? I think I heard that you fight against robots, so they should let you go all out.
