^^^ Different strokes for different folks

Some people think feet are sexy, watch a Tarantino movie to get his opinion on the subject

^^^yea i know man,,,i sounded like a close minded A**hole with that coment ,,,but that's how i felt after seeing her glasses

This game is freaking awesome. Bayonetta is actually naked the whole time as she uses witch magic to cover her body with her hair, the further the combo goes the more skin she shows.

Well it's got my attention now at least. I was thinking this is going more "serious" cinematic gaming, but it actually looks really campy and crazy. (Which I like.)

And as for why she looks the way she does, my guess is to allow it to stand out from other action titles, by featuring an over-sexed main female character who does NOT fit the generally expected appearance.

Sorta like how Team Fortress 2 looks almost like a Pixar movie in terms of art style, despite being true to mayhem and carnage you'd expect from an online shooter.

A marketing hook if you will.

Bayonetta=Sarah Palin

I LOVE IT.

she is like pretty, but she is rather hot and her personality KICK BUTTS!! XD

I'd hate to be the one to try to name it, but maybe 3rd person, non-fixed camera, Action-based 3D beat-em-up. Howbout Styalized 3rd person action game.

Other games in the sub-genre include new Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2, Shinobi PS2, Heavenly Sword, the new 3d Castlevania games(except for castlevania 64, which is more akin to Zelda than DMC), and God of War.

Double Dragon, Final Fight, Contra, all different sub-genres.

Of course the hack and slash existed before, however what you are implying is that 2d and 3d castlevania games are in the same genre, when one is basically a platformer, and the other is a 3rd person, non-fixed camera, action-based 3D beat-em-up.

There is no doubt that the games I talked about are a member of a larger genre, but there was as subgenre of games created and inspired by the original Devil May Cry game. It didn't so much reinvent the hack n slash genre as it did create a subgenre in and of itself.

Not to be argumentative, but classifying this sub-genre is like the supreme court classifying porn on the internet. I can't define it, but I know it when I see it. Bayonetta is definitely a member of that sub-genre.

You also know it when you see it. DMC was the first game like this, with the upgradable super moves, the 3rd person iffy camera, the styalized action, and the quick darting killing techniques, the over the top hard as balls bosses, and multiple difficulty levels that accompany most games in this genre. I think we should just call it the DMC genre, unless there was a game that did it earlier, which there wasn't considering DMC was a very early release on the PS2, and at the time "true next gen gameplay." Thus, my earlier post.

When you get older, two things will happen. Your standards will lower, and your taste will refine. She's sex on a stick, my friend.

that game looks fucking horrible! the girl is trying to look sexy, too bad she's fugly

Yeah, whatever, that's like....your opinion man. I, myself, am hot for mama.

Anyway, nice Wii hate in your sig, hater. Don't see any 360 numbers there, which pwn the PS3 readily and consistantly throughout this generation.
