Bayonetta demands Dante (DMC) to make her a sandwich. Patch fix available for PS3!

General Discussion

Like I said before, this game is about replay. Just beating it once won’t give you the full experience. There is also a secret mode in the game that has tons of replay. Don’t listen to DSP fans because half of them are under the age of 13. I’d rather have a short game with tons of replay then a long game that I only play once.

New Mode

Spoiler

It’s called the Lost Chapter and it is Bayonetta’s version of bloody palace mode. A mode where you fight hordes of enemies. They have leaderboards for this mode as well.

1782

Ah ha! I can’t wait to try that. Oh and are the alt weapons just like skin swaps or do they have differences?

I love how as I play this game I can only think about how I can’t wait to replay it… a third time!!!

1783

They are the alternare limb versions. Like the shot guns when you get them can only be used on your feet. The one’s in the store are the hands versions.

Edit: Also games out. Think it’s time for a new Title change again.

1784

I’ll put spoiler tags on the references just in case people want to find them on their own.

References

[details=Spoiler]There’s the first part where Bayonetta says “Dancing a gogo baby” during the virgil town burning.

Then the second time you meet Luka he starts naming out female names…Claire, Trish, Silvia, Ammy.

Claire = RE2
Trish = DMC
Silvia= Viewtiful Joe
Ammy= Okami

Then the panther form in general is somewhat of a Okami reference. Mainly the flowers left behind.

Then Rodin actually says the “What’re ya buyin” quote from RE4…which he states he heard from a game once.[/details]

1785

There is also a Virtua Fighter reference in the game.

Virtua Fighter Reference

Spoiler

Her back,forward+punch is Akira’s back,forward,forward+punch body check. If you use it to finish a battle she will yell one of Akira Yuki’s old quotes.:karate:

1786

oh yea that dragon kick move is a Viewtiful Joe reference also. At least the one going upward.

1787

Holding down I think R2/RT during either the motor cycle chase or the missle ride nets you a theme from Outrun. I don’t remember which.

Also one of the note books is written by Anthony “Tony” Redgrave

1788

the missle bit is a remix version of the original 1st stage of Space harrier.

EDIT: I take that back…it’s either one of the later stages in space harrier IIRC.

1789

I don’t get the new title of the thread…

1790

I think the thread titles stopped making sense when Dante was being compared to Launchpad McQuack.

1791

I wish the lock on wasn’t stuck to the rb. Trying to press everything with one hand is painful. Seriously, how can something like that make it through testing…

1792

Here’s how:

  1. Tester finds and notes it.
  2. Developer says, “Fuck off. As designed. Waived.”
  3. No one else really cares because they just want the game out the door.

In like 99.9% of bugs that exist, QA very likely found it at some point during the project cycle. It’s just that the bug was never fixed, due to any number of possible reasons.

1793

Yeah, I know how development goes. Still, something as simple as a button config should be standard.

1794

it’s actually weird there’s no button config in this game considering DMC has somewhat of a Button config.

but I really don’t use lockon in this game unless it’s a certain enemy. Bayonetta kinda locks on for you.

1795

DMC didn’t get a button config until DMC3. DMC1 (The Kamiya game) and DMC2 don’t have any sort of button config. In fact none of Kamiya’s games have a button config.

1796

Having jump mapped to triangle in DMC 1 made no sense. At least he didn’t do it again with Bayonetta.

And as a Software QA team member myself I completely agree with Sep’s description. It can be really frustrating at times.

1797

You’re starting a new thread because you don’t like the ongoing joke title? Uh, okay.

Anyway, would anybody be interested in a copy of this game for around $50-55?

1798

And you give a fuck about what DSP and his fans think? Try it out(at least the demo), and think for yourself. Rent it if you are that unsure.

1799

I finished this epic game and got till chapter 5 in hard mode. God this game rocks. I usually don’t even replay games but this game is too damn good. Hard mode = Grace and Glory everywhere, fuck those Angels man they’re driving me nuts. I wonder how I’m going to finish hard mode man. Btw this game is soooooooooooo over the top and epic. The last boss fight was super entertaining.

Here’s a link to help newcomers to bayonetta out. It’s hypersakura’s youtube channel where she gives a full tutorial for bayonetta and also shows you how to unlock costumes, weapons and combo vids etc…

Also check out this guy’s channel as well (n472a), he’s a pretty sick bayonetta jap player as well.
Here’s a combo vid he did, he’s sick with the whip! [media=youtube]uMU7lKZyS20[/media]

And here’s a vid of him abusing the panther scratch cancel attack into wicked weave slash with the sword.

Here’s his channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/n472a#p/u

Happy Angel slaying!
