I hope Bayonetta 2 sells well enough for us to get a Trilogy at least...

Dat mop thing was such a cock tease that it wasn't even funny T_T

Like, that cock tease was literily in the level of a hooker sucking u off and as soon as you are about to shoot ur load, she leaves without finishing you off! Just, urghhhhh


You know, his hair did turn white at the end of the game, though!

Yea, at the end... But his hair was always white in all the other games and not just in the ending... Heck, he may as well be Birdo without the white hair T_T

I've played all of them except God of War Ascension, the Darksiders games and Castlevania LoS. Never really considered myself a big fan of the genre but looking at my history, I guess I am. Can't argue with the results, though. From a "total package" standpoint, you just can't beat God of War. If Bayonetta had a better story and sharper graphics, I bet it would have topped the charts, though. To me, it always had the best gameplay of the genre, easily.

Bayonetta doesn't have as awesome gameplay as GOW series. Also, GOW just simply doesn't have better story and graphics. It is also a lot more epic (I'd say the most epic gaming series ever) and has an amazing sense of scale and boss fights. It is also a lot more atmospheric. Those are the reasons it has scored better.

Also, GOW: A is a must-play if you like other GOW games.

You have both of those sexy terrible games, but you haven't played Lords of Shadow? Tsk, tsk.

Actually, I haven't played Blades of Time. But Tak Fujii was involved with it somehow, so I bet it's awesome!

That's not exactly true because Dante's pubes turn white at the end of the first game. Source: my headcanon.

I don't know.  I never really liked the way God of War games felt in combat.  The scale was epic and the story was great but I just found myself putting up with the game to get to the next setpiece.  Honestly, I bought the first one just for the boobies and didn't like it.  The only reason I bought the second was because I found the HD collection in a pawn shop for like $10.  It was an all around great game but, for me, the combat was still the weakest part.  The third was simply fantastic and the sense of being powerful was really there.  But these are all just my opinion.  Bayonetta doesn't take itself seriously at all but as far as scale, there are some bosses that could crush GoW's biggest bosses in the palm of their hands.  

I may buy GoW:A one day.  I know it was like insanely cheap on PS+ earlier this year but I just didn't want to play it.  I heard bad things about it and, to me, the story was pretty much over at the end of GoW3.

I bought both entirely for the bewbs but Blades of Time was actually quite addictive.  X Blades was poop, though.  I also am ashamed to admit that I bought Golden Axe Beast Rider, too.  My penis has no taste.

 

 

Seriously.  When I was in middle school I managed to....uh...nevermind.

^ My reaction before I realized that "it" referred to the game.
