hmm just checked some comparison videos.. yup the PS3 version is pretty gimped.. frame rate is shifty.. Kinda weird how sega managed this after some real gems like VC,yakuza.. woulda figured they knew the ps3 like their backhand.. this looks more like a genki port..



Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

VC and Yakuza are PS3 games. Bayonetta is a 360 game ported to PS3 by Sega in a few months. This wasn't a decision by the developer Platinum games it was by the publisher Sega who wanted to make a few more $$$. It wasn't a good move, Sega still haven't lost the ability to make poor decisions. PS3 owners should vote with their wallet. It would be much better to wait 6 months to a year and get a decent port or upgrade (RA3, NG2S).

It takes 6 seconds to load the PAUSE MENU on ps3 according to gametrailers.This gotta be the worst port ever.



But war... war never changes

Why would you want to pause...and unpause in less than 6 seconds?

ok time to change the review gamespot!!!! PS3 patch game now no more loading time it equal to x 360 version now!

January 28, 2010 - In conjunction with Sega and Platinum Games, Sony has released a patch for the PS3 version of Bayonetta. Bayonetta on the PS3 has been plagued by long loading times between levels, and the patch will fix the problem by allowing gamers to install the title to their hard drives.

Bayonetta was highly acclaimed on both the PS3 and Xbox 360, but reviewers noted technical issues on the PS3 version of the game. We LOVED Bayonetta. It’s an action packed story about a Witch who revives after 500 years sleep at the bottom of a lake to vanquish angels. There’s a story there, but the story is secondary to the awe-inspiring hack and slash gameplay that won our hearts. Add a dash of a funny (and easy on the eyes) heroine and some ingenious level design, and you have an early Game of the Year contender.

If you’re a PS3 owner, the update will download when you boot up the game today and you’ll then be able to install the game and see load times drop significantly.

i think the main reason why the ps3 version run worse is its run at native 1080p which take alot of the graphics power while the 360 version upscaled to 1080p and that give the the 360 more space and ram to let the game have more details and run smooth .... its my opinion.

Where did you get that from?

The game was first developed on the X360, then it was horrible ported to the PS3. That's why.
