Description
I'm starting to think that Japanese-made games have become very flashy to look at but are no longer fun to play.What the hell happened?!

bayonetta only appeals to me as a character and not a game.

Lol this is great. Baynetta has the scale of a nine foot tall person, your so right About her proportions

Wow, that's a good way to sum it up. Do you watch "Zero Punctuation?"

From what I've heard and seen, that about sums the game up.

Saw the trailer and that put me straight off by itself.

Well, I guess Bayonetta isn't far off from what you usually draw.

I won't play Bayonetta, 1) because I'm not into hack 'n' slash games to begin with, and 2) her proportions are way too extreme, to the point of being ridiculous.
No thanks.

At least your first reason is good

I just think it's kind of ridiculous to to make "THIS CHARACTER IS SEXEH!" the main selling point of a game. But I respect those who like it - they probably think some of the games I play are just generic old shooters ^^'
All well.

Hehe yeh, your Halo icon hints at that
And yes, the in-your-face sex appeal is a bit much at times, but it's really overshadowed by the over-the-top craziness (throw a chuch at an angel! ride a motorbike into space!)
Lucky the gameplay is so good, really!

*SPOILER ALERT!!!*
You wanna know the worst part about it? There's probably going to be a sequel because Bayonetta somehow lives at the ending.

The majority of that site will explain what happened.
I remember fondly playing games like Grandia 1 and 2, The Legend of Dragoon, Lunar 1 and 2, and such....for me it seems like Japanese games are suffering from Legacy of Kain syndrome. LOK was one of my favorite game series, but sadly what started out good became repetitive in gameplay, and the series ended before they could finish the whole story.
Most Japanese games nowadays seem to be extremely bland and repetitive. Granted alot of American games are the same currently, but there are shining jewels here and there...I've yet to see another interesting Japanese game. Just look at anime, it is all tits and butt now. It use to be we had story in with fanservice here and there, and there was usually some comedy 'behind' it, remember the hotsprings scene in Outlaw Star? Now all I see is softcore hentai on store shelves where anime use to be.
For those who keep saying only jocks and brainless muscle men play FPS games and only geeks and nerds play RPG's, silence infidels.

Wow, that's actually the first negative review I've heard of Bayonetta, I appreciate your honesty Phil.
Incidentally, I have to ask, being that your a sandbox fan.
Have you played Red Faction Guerrilla yet? And did you plan to do a lets play for that one?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Agreed sadly.
American games are getting better in the meanwhile... WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR UNIVERSE?

I wonder how many people in this comments section have actually PLAYED Bayonetta?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
I've played it... and it wasn't bad, there were so many cool looking combos out there that the combat always looked refreshing, but...
A grading system? Why don't they just have a message that will flash across the screen that says, "wow, dude, you SUCK." Maybe it's because I'm really don't meet up to the game expectations in my play style, but still...
And I like the story. But after looking back and trying to put all the peices together, I'm surprised my head didn't explode. It's just wacky.

I should probably say I'm more of a strategy/tactics game person. xD So I suppose that dampens my input.

Hah yeah, many just seem to blindly agree with him

all the good japanese games arent released in america which sucks, hard, and flashy is good but game play has to be good as well, final fantasy 13 is a good example, and now im glad i saw this cuz i was about to buy bayonneta

Final Fantasy 13 is a very good example of very little real gameplay (as far as I've got through it anyway) and too much cutscene- I want choices dammit! - sorry ... I'm frustrated.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha, its fine, i like final fantasy 13 because the battle system requires more strategy, and i never really liked final fantasy 12 at all

Dude... have to disagree with you on this one.... I thought Bayonetta was everything it should have been.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
still God of War 3 is the king of action games, which Bayonetta is a GoW rip-off
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Incorrect. Bayonetta is an evolution of the Devil May Cry series/formula. Devil May Cry was around before God of War. Ultimately, it's pointless to call anything a rip-off of anything, because with all things there are varying degrees of influence and like concepts.

i just followed what yatzhee said about darksiders, bayonetta, and dante's inferno that they are all god of war rip offs
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I second that. I loved it to death. action and gameplay and all. Granted it was infuriatingly hard, even on easy.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Yeah, i remember looking at the trailer for this one and going "Hmm, it looks nice. But what else does it have?" And then i heard about it having a 1 button play mode and wrote it of completly.
Not that i mind sexy and stuff, heck i dig it. But Bayonetta just reeked of trying to cash in on sexy gaming.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's not 
If you want to play easy mode, with one button mashing, you can though. Game lets you choose.

its just Devil May Cry with a Female, and a lot more flash

japenese needs to get laid... and not with japanese women... *OH NOES RACIST COMMENT

next gen consoles with their uber-graphics pretty much destroyed games for me.
Its waiting and looking for a game that actually delivers fun gameplay and length of game-time.Overall most games have become no more than visually high quality movies with a bit of interaction here and there in between.
Either way,to leave my usual ranting,this is once again a splendid work (tho i cant relate in this game case
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Bayonetta is Japanese-made? Are you kidding? The blatant and awkward 'sexiness' came across as very Western to me. Well darn.
Yeah, all I could think was 'Ok.. so.. some of her hair is permanently wedged up her buttcrack?' which sort of ruined the sexy for me. :S
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I think there might already be a Bayonetta anime...Or maybe there was just an announcement about it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Man, I remeber when games were supposed to be FUN to play, not just FUN too look at. Where did it all go wrong?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Just watching the trailers and gameplay vids was a good indication about the controls. It looked and sounded repetitive as fuck. ¬¬
Even if I didn't play this game, I ain't surprised.
