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?!

The japanese do not have long legs, so of course all the characters have to have them.

Not so much japanese games so much it is most games not on the nintendo wii. Graphics are turning developers into morons.

I thought this one was rather fun. And an amusing commentary on modern action-game tropes to boot.

Psh Bayonetta is a great game, such a deep combat system you rarely see in action games like GoW et al. Sure the story isn't up to much, but the game itself has clearly been put together with a lot of love. So many hidden secrets and details you just can't get with one playthrough.

Don't expect to get a good grade on your first playthrough if you ever play it again, that is. Shame, I thought this sort of game would be right up your street, looking at your artwork and previous HtP comics.

I love reading these "How to Play..." comics, but I've got to disagree with this one. I will admit that the Q.T.E's are unforgiving and kind of random, but I never had any trouble with the controls or anything.

This was still funny though lol

If they make an Anime out of it, then pls with the DMC Style.

Bayonetta is a bad Game, but when i look at her and some Moves, i think i am watching more a soft Hentai as a Video Game X3

I didn't say all their games were good, I just said they made truly good games. Oh, and they know that the best market is the people looking for the games instead of trying to over-advertise. *COUGHCOUGHHaloDawnofWarallFirstPersonShootersfor360COUGHCOUGH*

FPS while not a genre I enjoy (in fact I only own Goldeneye and haven't played in years) are as popular and well-liked as they are because they get pretty clear publicitary campaigns slipped into the stuff their demographic like such as adult magazines, sport shows and testosterone-filled websites.

It's jrpg's and action games those that have seemed to forgot who their player base are and what we like, I don't want to see another GOW, that's what GOW is there in the first place, I don't want to see another DMC, or another Ninja Gaiden unless it's a secuel to the franchises, and it's pretty sickening and boring to see gaming companies coming out with clones with just aesthetical overhauls instead of even trying to add something a bit different (wich Darksiders tryed, for wich I like it).

Nintendo is awesome, but they need to remember why we like Donkey Kong is not because of stupid musical games and cameos, we want a new DKC. We don't like Zelda because we want to see convoluted stories, we just want to solve puzzles, raid temples, beat awesome bosses and save the princess.
