If you are desperate and I mean really, really desperate then just wait to get it used or when the price is around $10-20 as it will be worth it then.



I WILL b buying it used, I still enjoy the game and nobody , but game stop gets my money. Wanted it 4 PS3. The anwer if ur annoyed by a copanies actions should b 2 get the used version or rent it. U still enjoy a great game without selling out to companies that have annoyed u 4 some reason. I did the same 4 modern warfare 2. OH and anybody posing saying they never intended 2 buy the game ever r morons, thats not the point of this guys thread. PEACE!!!

I'll probably pick it up used. Well, unless they announce a patch that brings things up to snuff. I think they should have pulled a Oblivion/Bioshock here. Announced timed exclusive for 360, say 4-6 months, then released a superior PS3 version to take better use of the hardware. Also I posted this on another thread, but I think it belongs in this one:

You know it is kinda sad that Sega screwed up the port of Bayonetta, as it could have gone on to sell so much more than it is now. I mean this style definitely appeals more to PS3 owners than 360 owners. I say this using Devil May Cry 4 as a reference, since they are both from the same genre and style. According to VGC, DMC4 sold 1.29 mil on PS3 and 1.22 mil on 360. Keep in mind this was in Feb of '08, when PS3 had just under 10 mil in homes and 360 had well over 15 mil, yet the PS3 version sold ~80k more. I am in no way saying that 1.22 mil is a bad number, just establishing that the genre is more appealing for PS3 owners.

Now we have Bayonetta. It should have definitely peaked the interest of quite a few PS3 owners. It's from Hideki Kamiya, the series/style originator. It's more polished with a deeper, more stylish combo system. And, according to IGN, its "teh greatest action game EVAR!" But the crowd who would have been more interested got shafted by a sloppy port.

So here we are, with 10 weeks of sales in Japan and a debut week in America and Others. The PS3 version sits at just 330k WW and the superior 360 at 220k, and looking at the numbers I doubt sales are going to skyrocket anytime soon or have long legs. It's sad when you think about how well Kayima's DMC series has done. All have done more than this in Japan alone, with 2 debuting higher than 330k in Japan alone. I just feel that Bayonetta would have done better as a polished PS3 exclusive, than as a 360 game with a PS3 port that wasn't up to par.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think Bayonetta would have been a 10 mil seller, probably not even a 5 mil. But, I feel with the things going for it, it could have at least sold what the original DMC did, ~2.5 mil. As of now, it will be lucky to hit 1 mil with the 360 and Ps3's sales combined.



I was going to buy it. Now im not. Great job clowns.



lulz 69 :D

I still don't get why this game is getting more attention on forums than Darksiders. IMO godly brawl games beats skinny unattractive skinny milfs any day. Oh and I think the character is designed by a woman or some gay dude, why else would they design a fashion-model-esque creature that is in every way unattractive to regular-boob-lovin joes like us? I predict that this game will be prove that skinny ass women are really not attractive.

Lol Wha? how old are you 13?

 

Was interested in this when I played the demo but I dont support bastard step child ports.

The only way im getting this is out of the pre-owned bin for $15

and you must be 15, congratulations on using such a tired line.  *sigh*  forumers should really step up and stop using tired old lines like that.  Anyway if skinny long legged no-meat-on-bones women are your cup of tea the so be it.  I don't get this fashion model esque obsession nowadays, if you've never met one of those you'd think they're all glamorous but if you've seen one without makeup and stuff you'd know that most of them have bad breath from starving themselves or puking their guts off just to fit a size 1.  pfft I'd take real women any day.
