Watch the last episode of Gametrailers TV on Dante's Inferno and you'll all be convinced it will not only be a winner in this genre but a fantastic game:

Ahh..the atmosphere, graphics design and music.

Bayonetta. Dante's Inferno doesn't look nearly as lame as I originally expected it would, though.

I haven't really seen anything from either game that makes me want to play either.

So maybe someone here needs to post why each game is special or something.

Have to get both of course

Bayonetta

both games looks to be quite different. Dante's Inferno will be simillar to God of War while Bayonetta looks like will be more technical like Ninja Gaiden.
Platinum games have a lot experience with those kind of games and they are making quality and unique games - it will definitely be awesome game. they made 2 great beat'em up's and besides you can't go wrong when you buy game from people who are capable of this

I can make a case for Bayonetta...

I'll quote Yathzee here...

"If you don't think that launching an enemy in the air and then keeping him afloat with bullets until he dies is great, you need to re-evaluate your standards"

Combat for bayonetta is going to be fun.

Dante's Inferno was one of the games I was anticipating, until the latest video. The gameplay moves look incredibly mechanic, visual are ok (at most)... it honestly looks like a God of War bad clone!

Bayonetta. I saw the new trailer of DI, and I didn't like it. Combat looked too slow and boring. The new Castlevania game looks better than Dante's.

Dante's Inferno. I love the sins.
