  • Although Bayonetta has more than a few similarities to Devil May Cry, I wholeheartedly believe that this game is a must-play. Buyers beware, however: the 360 version is vastly superior to the PS3 version on a technical level, so PS3 owners fortunate en...

  • Abstract:  Bayonetta is essentially a sequel masquerading as an original game. It's not a "nice first attempt." It's not short. It's not a foundation lacking features and variety and whatever else reviewers like to complain about. It has the kind of heft usually ...

  • The combat system is just about perfect and the boss encounters are memorable
  • It pushes the sex angle too far, the story makes absolutely no sense, the game drags on longer than it should
  • Even after suffering through the gruelling battles, the repeated deaths, the campy dialogue and the head-numbingly bad plot, I still had a hell of time with Bayonetta thanks to the immensely satisfying combat, the inspired level design and the memorable b...

  • Abstract:  There’s no denying that Bayonetta is one of the sexiest gaming characters and from way she talks, flirts and flaunts her assets, the game is definitely oozing with a titillation factor. Obviously the creators had this in mind and whether it's the way s...

  • Witch time is a fantastic feature that should be in all action games like this. Gorgeous graphics. Bayonetta is a great character with a strong mix of confident, powerful and sexy attributes. Fluid controls and a great combat system that is easy to use fo...
  • A little screen tearing when there is too much happening. The story (whilst interesting in concept) is not told very well and can become confusing. Some may hate the music.

  • Abstract:  Good grief... that is exactly what Charlie Brown would say were he ever to play Bayonetta. This is because the game has an extremely over-sexualized sense of style. >> Click here to win a copy of Bayonetta from Gameplanet.co.nz Don't let any of that fo...
