AlexY: If you have never played God Hand, then I doubt you could understand Bayonetta.
First, Bayonetta is MEANT to be over-the-top, instant sexual gratification, and more. Hell, there's a one-button Very Easy Automatic mode where you can use the other hand for...other purposes.
You can
cancel out of
any combo and
instantly connect to
any other combo with your
guns on your hands and feet, something even Dante doesn't do as good.
She can turn into a bird, a panther, a pack of bats and a half-moth.
She has deadly ice-skates.
She has a deadly whip.
She has cat claws.
She has a katana, rocket launcher tonfas, guns on all limbs too.
Enemies are angels, halos are collectibles, everything is divided into Verses, there's a supplier from Hell who quotes the merchant from Resident Evil 4, there's 150 acid-jazz tracks on the OST, everything is over the top to the point where Bayonetta starts motorcycles with her magic middle finger.
Oh and her magic is enclosed in her hair which is her outfit which magically disappears during every finisher. And there's bullet time. And magical lollipops.
So yeah, GOTY ALL YEARS.
Seriously, the demo is awesome, and there's at least 150 base combos in it, with who knows how much variations in between. I'm officially in love with the game since the first announcement.
If you have a PS3 and 80 dollars you could be playing the game right now like I am.
