Lets not get too hasty here…are we talking dmc collection as is? or with dmc 1-3 graphic models and overall resolution pumped up to dmc4 standards? If the dmc graphics and res stay the same on the older games, then Bayonetta for sure…but with graphic upgrade?..well…
DMC3 and Bayonetta, for my tastes, are equals. I love one just as much as the other, with or without a graphics upgrade. Now if they did an HD Remix of DMC3, it will be much too EPIC!!!
You ain’t kidding. I was hoping the pc version would look better, but it was botched. I’m really surprised there’s no pc version of Bayonetta. Things used to go
What system is the best to get this game on?

Hey, I just started playing this game yesterday and I’m loving it so far.
Complete noob question. The magic meter under your life bar, is that just how long you are engaged in witch time?
And the weapons section in the gates of hell, is that just to make the guns stronger?
The magic meter under your bar has nothing to do with witch time. Witch time’s length depends on how accurate your dodge was. Later on, you’ll get a move that allows you to dodge on the frame that you get hit. That gives a longer witch time than with an average dodge. The longest witch time comes from an accessory that lets you parry and counter enemies’ attacks by tilting the stick toward the enemy that’s attacking you. Once again, the parry has to be on the 1st frame you get hit, and you will get a super long witch time.
The magic gauge is used for your wicked weave attacks (attacks with the giant arms and feet that use her hair) and witch accessories that use up magic power.
The weapons section is where you buy alternate versions of your gun weapons. Alternate versions are an extra pair that you can equip on your feet, so you can have all handguns, shotguns, or grenade launchers on all limbs at the same time. You get new weapons by finding all the pieces of the weapon (in the form of broken music CD pieces) as you play the game. When you get all the CD pieces, you take it to the Gates of Hell and mah nigga Rodin will hook you up.
Only the instant Witch Weave attacks(b,f+P/K) take magic. The most common way you’ll be using magic is for Torture Attacks (the finishers), but there are a few others that don’t include item usage
Forgot about the torture attacks (never use them because i have kilgore glitch <3) and thanks for clarification. just started playing that game after several months yesterday. going for that plat trophy finally
So I cleared the game finally on normal. What accessories should I get?
The parry accessory and the accessory that drops a little bomb instead of going into witch time when you dodge. The first one is obvious, the second one is for battles where witch time isn’t allowed. In NSIC mode it’ll be your only defense against the nasty angels.
NSIC was an awesome difficulty. I felt like I accomplished something when I got done
Meh. I didn’t. Mostly because I did use items to get through it. I’d like it more if I had witch time because witch time is a part of the game. To remove it is like playing a challenge in VF4 where you can’t kick. Yeah it’s hard and challenging but on any given sunday you are allowed to kick. You don’t go to tourneys where you can’t kick.
I love nsic mode, the accessory that leaves the bomb and parry make up for the lack of witch time (butterfly trinket is also good). Plus the Kilgore glitch takes down tougher enemies. Just make sure you know how to dodge in combos and continue them (forgot what it’s called).
What are you guys favorite weapon combinations? I usually use the katana on hands and claws on the feet. My second set usually has Kilgore on the feet (for glitch) and shotgun on the hands.
wow was browsing and saw this thread and realized that they were selling this at bestbuy for only 20 dollars (compared to 35 used at gamestop/gamecrazy)
this game is insanely good
Just got this game, what skills should I be buying from the start?
And I also got the game for 20 bucks at Best buy online, great deal.
Get bat within. It basically extends the dodge window by a good amount. The dive kick/upward kick is great for air combos. As for accessories, if you are getting hit alot get the one that activates witch time when you get hit, although it’s worthless once you get good at dodging attacks. If you aren’t getting hit a lot then get the parry. I almost always have it equipped.
this is the single most important advice that can be given before the start of an NCIS mode run… that and the killgore glitch (stuff just lives too long in this mode without killgore glitching)
may i ask wut killgore glitching is? i played the demo and i assume killgore is the death scene animation she does when enemies are at lower hp, but there’s a glitch to this?
no, what your describing are called torture attacks. the killgore glitch is where you use weapon set switching so that you start a attack with the h2h weapon (your specifically looking for them on the feet), it’s the one where bayo does a chun-li style lightning legs, and right as that attack animation starts you swap sets to a set with killgore (the rocket launcher) on bayo’s feet, what happens is that the lightning kicks shoots 1 rocket (killgores version of a weave attack) per really fast kick so you do an ASSTON of damage in like a second or so.
however you still have to combo far enough to get the lightning legs in the first weapon set.
Yea the Kilgore glitch is awesome damage. Equip the claws to your feet on one set (make sure they are lightning and not fire) and whatever on your hands. Second set needs to have Kilgore launchers on the feet (again, whatever on the hands). The combo you need is ppppk, as soon as the kick animation starts, switch to Kilgore set and she will fire a million missiles.

Wow. I wish I knew about this sooner. I have had the exact weapon setup for it all this time. My other set is the katana+ice skates.
Edit: Just pulled it off. Just need more practice.
