I'm sorry but only Santa Monica can pull off a game in the same league as GOW...so no wasn't expecting it to be 'like' GOW either

your wrong... everybody knows or should know Bayonetta currently holds the title for best action game his gen. Bayonetta fars surpasses Groan of War

...says the guy who hasn't played God of War III.  :P

Bayonetta and God of War are two completely different styles of hack n' slash.

How so? I usaully hate statments like this.. sometimes its right most times its wrong..  how do Bayonetta and GOW different to where you cant compare them?

You can compare them, but their strengths lie in different areas, thus the "better" game usually boils down to which facet you prefer.

Bayonetta is all abow the complexity and technique found in its combat.  God of War focuses more on the visual spectacle of fighting, focusing on powerful yet slow moves, and incorporating numerous scripted sequences in lieu of traditional gameplay.  Almost half the game is spent getting tossed around by a titan or smashing a god's eyeballs in, while in Bayonetta, you spend the majority of your time using your wits and knowledge of the combat system to take down the game's pernicious AI opponents.

No.  It's 360 exclusive.  I was originally going to post this in Microsoft discusison, but I thought the God of War comment would seem somewhat out of place there.

Im afraid im not convinced. Thats like saying we cant compare LBP to Mario or any other platfomer. A genre is a genre and just because your game is built in a different style, doesnt mean its exempt from comparison to other game in the same genre

JRPG with card-based mini-games is my bet.
