Our impressionsofBayonetta have been consistently favorable, and now we must invent new heights for our appreciation to soar. Following our viewing of this latest trailer -- the highlight of which is the game's heroine suplexing a giant dragon because we weren't lying in the headline of this post -- we've come to believe that Bayonetta's release cannot come soon enough. And it doesn't even have a release date yet, so it's that much tougher.
Sure, it looks a lot like Devil May Cry, but is that such a bad thing? Let us hold hands through this near two minute video ride together, and embrace the action. And maybe watch her suplex that dragon 3 or 4 more times.
that music playing in the background of that video gets a big WTF!?! I hope that is not in the actual game. I thought this game was going to have a hrd core attitude and now it has this stupid j pop comedy aspect to it. I smell fail.
its funny the guy who got voted up is wrong... After it says SEGA, there is a moon with a "P" in it, thats for Platinum Games, the ppl who made Mad World, they have a few ppl that worked on DMC and the Clover team and maybe Resident Evil? talented group tho
At first i wasnt too into the whole chick thing but now after watching this, im actually looking forward to playing this game i hope they keep the character on.

meh.

Heh... you got voted down, but I kind of agree. It just looked kind of stupid. Maybe the fighting will be fun, but story elements sure looked lame.
Ezio Auditore de Firenze (PSN slycooper_rocker) @ Apr 10th 2009 6:42PM
that looked amazing. bayonetta is a badass.

Looks just like DMC with even more insanity. I really can't wait for this. I thought you were joking with the title until the end....
Mr Khan @ Apr 10th 2009 6:43PM
So she *is* a librarian, after a fashion (archivist is close enough, i think)
THA1icarus @ Apr 10th 2009 7:10PM
No man she is Sarah Palin before she had all the kids.
Now she has stopped killing daemons but she still kills animals out of her helicopter.
boomsilent @ Apr 10th 2009 6:43PM
oh. fuggin. snap.
even in a recession, CAP's got my cash. just dont announce DLC before it comes out, lolz
Moptimus Slime (Gobot in disguise) @ Apr 10th 2009 6:50PM
CAPCOMs making this game? Someone better tell SEGA that before they get sued.
abisairomero @ Apr 10th 2009 10:04PM
no. the guy that made DMC is now working 4 SEGA. this game is made and published by SEGA. capcom has nothing to do with this.
this will be an awesome game...too bad it doesnt have the HYPE other games have
Kamizar @ Apr 10th 2009 10:17PM
This game is being made by Platinum Games Inc.

xtremeholymuffin @ Apr 12th 2009 4:46AM
Wait, Platinum Games?!?!
The developers of Madworld?!?
Where can I preorder?
Kleptomaniac @ Apr 10th 2009 6:47PM
The gameplay looks pretty good but i hate the main character!
Ezio Auditore de Firenze (PSN slycooper_rocker) @ Apr 10th 2009 6:54PM
why? she seems pretty badass to me.
Kleptomaniac @ Apr 10th 2009 6:57PM
Apart from the ridiculous character design. Its the accent i cannot stand that kind of voice!
Hyams @ Apr 10th 2009 6:58PM
Yeah, that's my reaction as well. Gameplay lots awesome, but the character is just so freakin' annoying.
At the moment, though, this is a rental.
lennygundam14 @ Apr 10th 2009 7:22PM
nah chill man, its Dante's long lost sister LMAO
Ezio Auditore de Firenze (PSN slycooper_rocker) @ Apr 10th 2009 9:42PM
fair enough. i liked the accent but i see how it could annoy the f*** out of some people.
grudgeoms @ Apr 10th 2009 6:47PM
I have to admit this looks cool but also kind of weird at the same time lol
Imagine plying this while your high
MaliceMajorE15 @ Apr 10th 2009 7:50PM
wow you lot actually down voted him. let that be a lesson kids.......drugs aint cool
BPMOmega [gamertag] @ Apr 11th 2009 2:21AM
No, it's because he said "your high" instead of "you're high."
Remember the importance of good grammar, kids!
DrAwesome123 @ Apr 10th 2009 6:51PM
Looks ridiculous...and fun
Nytemare @ Apr 11th 2009 12:03AM
Suplexing a dragon.
Man, never thought I'd see the day! I'm so pumped for this game now!
DBuck_Eye @ Apr 10th 2009 6:59PM
That dialogue at the beginning sounds like it's out of an Uwe Boll movie... and I like it!
Moptimus Slime (Gobot in disguise) @ Apr 10th 2009 7:05PM
hopefully the action won't be reminiscent of a Uwe Boll film
House of the Dead, anyone?
WINterfang @ Apr 10th 2009 9:37PM
Shut up dude! doesn't mention the words House of the Dead and uwe boll together please, it brings me too much pain.
Popfrogs @ Apr 10th 2009 6:59PM
Damn, that dragon at the end gets OWNED. This game looks like it might be alot of fun.
darkseid @ Apr 10th 2009 7:12PM
I'm pleased to see that Hideki Kamiya has evolved past impenetrable and nonsensical stories. Oh wait. Still curious about this game, though.
OLDMIKE @ Apr 10th 2009 7:12PM
is it just me or is SEGA makeing good games now??
this looks like fun VC is my top RPG this gen
PSP on the PSP eats up many a lunch brake
Kamizar @ Apr 10th 2009 8:56PM
Sega isn't making this, Platinum games is making this. Sega is the publisher.
BPMOmega [gamertag] @ Apr 11th 2009 2:22AM
Yo, dawg. Heard you like PSP. So, we put PSP in your PSP, so you can game while you game!
OLDMIKE @ Apr 11th 2009 11:40PM
PSP as in Phantasy Star Portable
Kamizar @ Apr 10th 2009 7:19PM
Hair fetish, kami fetish, god fetish.

AnnoyingPoster @ Apr 10th 2009 7:20PM
lame...all japanese games suck except those made by capcom.
Roto13 @ Apr 10th 2009 7:31PM
Annoying Poster indeed.
Jacksons @ Apr 10th 2009 7:31PM
Really? Come on now.
Brett from Atlanta @ Apr 10th 2009 7:33PM
lame...all posters are awesome except for you.
Mr Khan @ Apr 10th 2009 7:39PM
Nintendo would like to have a word with you.
Nineteen88 @ Apr 10th 2009 8:54PM
MGS4 IS NOT LAME! How many games have come out after it? It's still the best IMO!
ray k @ May 31st 2009 4:40PM
metal gear is weak.
final fantasy is weak.
but not all japanese games apart from capcom's are weak.
lennygundam14 @ Apr 10th 2009 7:21PM
the storyline looks ridiculously bad, but the gameplay is pretty awesome, like DMC3 awesome.
Roto13 @ Apr 10th 2009 7:29PM
ilu Kamiya
Orex @ Apr 10th 2009 7:31PM
Gameplay looks great!
At first i wasnt too into the whole chick thing but now after watching this, im actually looking forward to playing this game i hope they keep the character on.
Brett from Atlanta @ Apr 10th 2009 7:31PM
big deal, I suplex dragons...umm..for breakfast! In all seriousness this game looks pretty cool. Hopefully we will get to see more of it.
Moptimus Slime (Gobot in disguise) @ Apr 10th 2009 7:37PM
Oh yeah? I SUPLEX DRAGONS IN MY SLEEP
Toasty @ Apr 10th 2009 8:34PM
