I disagree with your opinion.
In my opinion, Bayonetta gets cannibalized by God of War 3 in just about every single way. The gameplay of God of War is absolutely fluid, the story, graphics, scale, difficulty, etc is all right where it needs to be.

Bayonetta is an average game IMHO in just about every way and certainly no God of War. Consumers / Reviewers / etc will prove this opinion to be true.

Bayonetta has a 90 meta while GOW3 has a 93......3 point differential is the difference between an "average game" and a great one?

The truth lies somewhere in the middle.  86 on the PS3 / 90 on the 360.   I could say Bayonetta averages out at an 88 overall.   Either way,  3 points is 3 points.    God of War 3 has also sold quite a bit more on quite a smaller gamer base in a much shorter amount of time.  

Consumers have spoken of their opinion of quality / enjoyment of the two games.

Bayonetta is a niche game to me.  A game that die hard fans of it will swear by it but more people will avoid it than go out of their way for it.  Gameplay is almost entirely a personal preference thing.  For example, I hate Ninja Gaiden-esque game play.  I don't enjoy Ninja Gaiden's simply because of their gameplay.    So while it's great that you enjoy Bayonetta more,  you're in the minority.
