By far my favorite hack'n slash game, full of intense and thrilling battles, and of course, a very sexy witch. I recall watching this game trailer in early 2009, and craving for a ps3 or xbox360 to play, but didn't have money to buy those console at that time, only in 2017 i had the opportunity to get my hands on bayonetta and got addicted to this game.

I remember when previews for Bayonetta first came out, I wasn't all that sold on it for some reason. But when I tried out the demo on the PS3, I was blown away by the awesome gameplay. This was one of the very few console games I've ever pre-ordered. This was also the game that made me a big Platium Games fan.

An absolute gem of a game and one of my favourites of all time, if not my favourite. Played it in every platform, wouldn't mind to play it here too if it got released. Wish we can have all the saga on PC.

This is the greatest of all time. Witches...mosters...machine gun high heels with a main character that is unforgettable. Non stop action that keep me busy but always entertained.
Why Bayonetta Needs to Happen on GOG Bayonetta is a beloved action masterpiece that deserves a permanent home on GOG — a platform known for celebrating iconic, DRM-free classics and cult hits. Developed by PlatinumGames and originally released in 2009, Bayonetta redefined the character-action genre with its intense, stylish combat, over-the-top spectacle, and unforgettable protagonist. Bringing Bayonetta to GOG would serve both preservation and accessibility. Many PC gamers today want to own their games without DRM, launchers, or online checks — and GOG’s philosophy supports that freedom. It ensures Bayonetta can be enjoyed offline, preserved for future generations, and modded or customized with ease. Not only does Bayonetta feature some of the most fluid combat mechanics ever designed, but it also embraces a tone of unapologetic camp, mythological lore, and cinematic flair. The protagonist, Bayonetta herself, is a unique icon — equal parts stylish witch, action hero, and sassy legend. Her battles against angels, demons, and godlike foes are legendary, and the replay value is immense thanks to challenge modes and score-based rankings. Releasing Bayonetta on GOG would also open the door to a full trilogy on the platform — something fans would welcome with open arms. Imagine having the complete saga, DRM-free, with full controller support, soundtrack extras, and behind-the-scenes art packs as GOG goodies. Ultimately, Bayonetta on GOG isn't just a good idea — it's essential for fans of action games, preservationists, and everyone who believes games should be owned, not rented. Let’s make it happen.
Simply a Fantastic and Super Fun Game to Play Containing a Range of Differentiated Skins and Abilities, A Very Fun Gameplay to Enjoy. With the Vast Maps and Locations in Japan

Lost Planet: Extreme Condition
Lost Planet: Extreme ConditionThe game is played through a third person over-the-shoulder view. Players are allowed to switch between first person and third person at any moment. Players either travel on foot or ride various types of mechanized suits called Vital Suits (VSs). VSs carry heavy weapons such as chainguns and rocket launchers. They can pick up weapons lying on the ground and fire multiple weapons at once. On foot, players are able to use a grappling hook to pull themselves up to normally hard-to-reach places, or to hook onto a VS and hijack it. Driving VSs and using certain weapons requires thermal energy. Also, the planet's cold temperature causes the characters' thermal energy level to continually decrease. Players can replenish their thermal energy level by defeating enemies or activating data posts. Data posts also allow players to use their navigational radars to see incoming enemies. Each of the 11 levels is accompanied by a boss, which can be either a VS or a large Akrid.
