  • like ps3 cares, we fucks wit god of war

  • so is this really not as good on PS3 or is IGN just biased on this one? I am thinking of getting this so please answer

  • @FOoMan777 Well, it kinda is. The main problems are load times, but there was a patch that allows you to install the game on the harddrive of the ps3 to erase load times. Make sure you have internet. Even if you don't at least give it a rent. FUN AS A HELL.

  • @Sullytofu Thats what I heard that it is just the load times. Seeing as renting is so hard over here now (no more hollywood :( and blockbuster got really expensive) I will probably just get it on ebay for 10 bucks or so. Thank you!

  • i hate how game developers underestemate the ps3 as characteristics go its better thst the 360 then how games run better on it i guess because they design them for xbox and then they got the idea that if its also on ps3 it will make more money

  • bayonetta's first fight scene beat up the entire devil may cry series in terms of crazy fight

  • Nah, people just hate on it because they suck at it! People are always saying BF3 is better than COD when they're both good games. I should know, I own them both. I like the campaign better for MW3 and I like the multiplayer better for BF3, however, COD's multiplayer isn't all that bad either.

  • @megemunchig2008 and @imbabomba

    SHUT THE FUCK UP

    FUCKING WINEING YOUR ASSES OFF HERE

    SOOOOOO FUCKING PETHETIC LOOK AT YOURSELVES

  • @merJewel You shut the fuck up and stop crying! Should I call you the whaaaabulance?

  • true, the only thing i hate from Bayonetta loads all the time, but overall i love the gameplay

  • If anyone reading it: I just finished the game on the PS3 and you know what? FUCK IGN. The game runs great. To be fair I haven't played the 360 version, But the PS3 one is still very good.

  • @gonen32

    This review by IGN was done at the games launch over 2 years ago. The game has been patched and runs great now, I should know I bought the game the day it came out and have played through it probably 50 times. This reviewer is right, the game was slow and the graphics were washed out on release, but again, now that they've patched the problems the it looks and runs great.

  • Bayonetta is like an Asian God of War :P

  • @ChanchoLoks124 dude you're so funny you should do stand up.

  • In other Words~

    Sony's Screeeeeewed~

  • This game was meant to be a 360 exclusives so if i had a ps3 i wouldnt mind the graphics(that are REALLY washed out) as long as i get to play it i mean it is still fun

  • I believe it has been patched now. Now you can install the game on your HDD, which should make it much less sluggish.

  • god of whore haha

  • god of hore haha

  • did the patch fix the ugly textures or just the load times?

  • @insertnamehere001 Just the load times. The game still looks worse than the Xbox 360 game. It's still mighty fun though. :)

  • you could tell this guy did the xbox review first. HIs voice seems washed out and unwilling to do this review.

  • @DarkMnMChocolate Well, the graphics DO look "washed out" and it IS sluggish. It's still fun to play it on the PS3, but the Xbox 360 version is definitely better.

  • @DarkMnMChocolate Actually that's clements voice all the time hehehe

  • doesn't sound too intense.... that's like my everyday life

  • @serithious ... Right...

  • @serithious ohhh its funny because the Mega64, they said that. ohhhh

  • Bayonetta in a few words: VERY ASIAN, SEX COMBAT GAME.

  • @MichaelMyers87 well try dareksiders if u can get to the 9 hour mark the rest will be great and no theres no sexy wtch in darksiders jst better graphics

  • Also Infamous is another awesome action game, and so is prototype to only iv never played it just heard about it lol.

  • Also, the camera issues and the same damn boss every damn fucking time. If you want to play a badass action game play god of war, or darksiders. Darksiders isnt as good as god of war (series), but its still very fun and is not just action like god of war, but also more action adventure. Darksiders is open world theres alot of puzzle solving. Reminds me of a new more badass zelda ocorina of time on the 64.

    Some other cool games to get over this, batman arkham asylum, and red dead redemption.

  • This game sucked and was boring. The controls/gameplay was too complicated. And there were always certain combos that youd have to pull off to beat certan enemies, only they were too hard to pull off. One of the most overrated games ever. Plus there was no story or splot development. The story was confusing as hell. I got bored after a while but kept playing anyways. But then i was fed up with having to do this same bullshit hard combo to take some fuckers out so i broke the game disc in half.

  • @MichaelMyers87 all i keep reading is "too hard too hard too confusing." don't bash the game because of your lack of skill and your short attention span, if you don't like it fine but you don't even give any good points.

  • wow guys a hard game these day's make's scrubs stop playing do u really suck thta much to hate a creat game like this?

  • @thefoodgamer1 The game wasnt hard at all. Just boring as shit. The controlls/gameplay/combo system was way too in depth. Yea you could just use one move ever and over once u mastered it and it woudnt be hard. But the main problem was that there was no storyline and u never felt like you had a purpose to get to the next level to find out whats going on. Because you never did.

  • Enslaved Odyssey to the West > Bayonetta

  • @d4rfnad3r Quite alright

  • another fanboy war...

  • @d4rfnad3r

    That's the point, we get the full game plus 3 (4 if you buy the game new), of the best DLC packs for free, plus ours has ME3's engine which is awesome

  • this game is super fun. I just think it does deserve a high score because of it has a shit story. oh and install the game for the PS3 or else it loads annoyingly too much

  • @myNAMEisNOTjordan I thought this game was super fun. But after chapter 2 or 3, it all goes down hill from there. This game is PILE OF SHIT! Crapiest game I have ever played in my life. Worse than Assassins Creed 1. AC1 has a nice story, nice atmosphere vibe but shit gameplay. Bayonetta has shit gameplay, shit story, shit vibes, shit everything, shit characters, just shit shit shit! How the fuck did this piece of shit get a 9.5.

  • People, do not buy this fucking game. It's fucking repetitive and boring. The camera controls is all fucked up, the boss fights are all the same, the mini battles are all the same. This game is shit with a shit story! Not worth playing.

  • @megamunchit2008 wow somebody that has the same opinion as mine.. when i said this on my review of the game at gamestop many didn't like it and when i told my friends about what i think about this game they all don't agree and say its better than DMC..for me it is too repetitive.. and yes the boss fights are the same and i don't like the cutscenes where its like a film.

  • @SSpardAA16 Nice, by the way, did you finish this game? I'm just wondering how many chapters are in this stupid game. I need to finish this so I can start a new game. This game is taking up way to much of my time.

  • @megamunchit2008 no.. it was really getting stupid for me.. i dont remember what mission i stopped but its after the boss fight in the Colosseum place shown here from 1:58 to 2:03.. i did not finish it coz i remember i already beat that same boss in other chapters i got tired of its too much repetition so i went back to gamestop and changed this shitty game for batman arkham asylum GOTY..

  • @SSpardAA16 Oh shit, I didn't even get as far as you yet. I'm just starting chapter 11. I don't know how much more I can take of this shitty game. This is the first game that makes me want to literally break the disc. I won't be surprised if I do. By the way, how is Batman Arkham Asylum GOTY? I have that game to and have not opened it yet. Looking forward to it.

  • @megamunchit2008 I really get tired of it thats why i returned it... especially if the bosses are the same its tiring i can accept that the mobs are the same like most of the time in DMC but same bosses and different ways of beating them?? it really sucked for me.. Batman Arkham Asylum GOTY is great.. im not really a fan of comics superhero game like that but its really awesome the gameplay is fun especially you solve puzzles of Joker while playing the story which adds to the hours of gameplay..

  • @SSpardAA16 I finally beat this piece of shit game.

  • 1.3 points in difference due to HARDWARE-issues? How is that in any sense a fair review of a game? Could it be that IGN just has fail equipment, since i've never had any tearing, nor heavy loading times at all.

    Btw, Bayonetta > God of War and even DMC (yes, i've said it)

  • @KeiVal666 This game fucking sucks! God of War shits on this pile of shit game. This game deserves a 4.5/10, maybe even lower. I'm on chapter 10 and I can't seem to bring myself to finishing this stupid game. FUCK! I need to finish this boring ass game before I start a new game.

  • @megamunchit2008 oh cmon! you just suck!

    gow is too easy for me. even kids can finish that fcking game..

    you only insult that game because you;re just a noob

    I TELL YOU!!

    YOU'RE A FUCKING NOOB!.

  • @imbabomba You're a fucking piece of shit! You're pathetic. You pick internet fights with people over a video game. You're obviously a dumb weakling who doesn't know what's best for him. Go act tough on the streets bitch! Then you can call yourself a man.

  • @megamunchit2008 NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOBNOOB NOOBNOOBNOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOB NOOBNOOBNOOBNOOBNOOBNOOBNOOBNO­OBNOOB NOOB

  • @imbabomba OUCH!! I'm so hurt! You fucking little coward!

  • @megamunchit2008 or how about this...

    GO FIGHT ME IN ONE OF THESE GAMES!!

    dota

    league of legends

    heroes of newerth

    garena username : renethepk

  • @imbabomba What the fuck kinda games are these? Never even heard of it! Come play 1 on 1 with me on MW3 you little bitch!

  • @megamunchit2008 ewwwwwwwwwww....

    mw3? what a joke! you only play that because the quick scoping is autoaim

    that game if for noobs man. go play other league games like counter strike.

  • @imbabomba I`ll own your noob ass in counter strike! If there were no cheaters or hackers on that game, I would have still been playing it. And I don`t quick scope you idiot. I don`t know how. MW3 is a fun game and I play it because it is fun. You just don`t like it because you suck at it.

  • @megamunchit2008 sorry. i already play mw 3. dude. the quick scoping is autoaim!

    why dont you play league games instead. ya know? like DOTA?

  • @megamunchit2008 its fun but its still a shit game

  • @DjScreamify The demo was fun, then the full game sucks ass!

  • @megamunchit2008 im talking about cod o.o not Bayonetta 

  • @DjScreamify COD shits on Bayonetta. Bayonetta such a garbage game.

  • @megamunchit2008 but then again COD gets shitted on by every other game

  • @megamunchit2008 WOW you are here too... dont you get that EVERYONE hates you

  • @LD1E60 Holy shit man. Are you a girl or are you a queer! You follow me everywhere! Fucking moron! Get a life. Jeez, stalker!

  • Reckon I get it on ps3? (I don't have an xbox)

  • Rip Off of DMC4

  • @BananaGamer101 The game come from the same person who made the original Devil May Cry on the PS2. So Bayonetta can't be a ripoff of Devil May Cry.

  • @E3Daw really ? thanks man !

  • I got this game yesterday, and i love it,i played in ps3 and i dont have any of these problems

  • Btw, the complaints about the load times have an easy solution: Install the game. Takes 5 minutes, and after you do that, there's practically no load times.

  • I haven't had any of these problems... at all. Probably becuase of patches since this review was made. But still, I'd take the PS3 version WITH the problems, over buying an Xbox 3Shitty any day.

  • I have the PS3 version of the game and I didn't really have any of these issues that he was talking about.

  • Is there a Bayonetta 2?

  • the ps3 version is playing shit. That is unless if you only own a ps3 :p

  • fuck you dumb ass bayonetta is A beast game dude plz dissapointing load times and not sharp detail just use a more better hdmi cable with a better tv ps3 and xbox are both good with this game gosh lol ign reviews suck

  • @SGamerRPG Bayonetta was released early 2010, and then it DID suck. They have fixed most issues on the ps3 already, the screen tearing however is still there. It's not bothering me that much, but the Xbox360 version really is better (I played both).

  • Screen tearing, screen tearing, and more screen tearing. That's all i fucking heard on almost all of the reviews it doesnt even bug me.

  • why don't you just marry xbox, fuckin ign whore, can we get a reviewer who doesn't have hate crimes against ps3, cool thanx :)

  • It's messed up that this game is of a lesser quality on the PS3 because this type of character action game originated on Sony's Playstation 2 (such as Devil May Cry and God of War).

  • Screw you IGN, it was great :D

  • Laugh it up Microsoft, you get the best version of Bayonetta

    We get the best version of Mass Effect 2

    Still consider it a fair deal?

  • @gale1243 YEAH :D XBOX SUUUUUUUX

  • @gale1243 PC is the best version of Mass Effect 2. now go buy the other console and quit being a fanboy douchebag.

  • @rickyjshiznit

    I'm not a fanboy, and I own both consoles, I just like PS3 better. So SHUT THE FUCK UP PC FANBOY!!!

  • @gale1243 im not a fanboy and you are a dumbass.

  • @rickyjshiznit

    considering you called me a fanboy for saying PS3 is good, you should be considered a fanboy for saying PC is good.

    If you're wondering what I just did, I just beat you with logic

  • @gale1243 no, i didnt say pc was better i said that mass effect 2 is better on pc, there is a difference. im not a fanboy by any means, i play whatever console the game is better on. if i want to play bayonetta ill play it on my 360, if i want to play uncharted ill play it on my ps3. you on the other hand choose to play games on the ps3 even though they are better played on other consoles, you are a ps3 fanboy. also, ps3 sucks ass.

  • @rickyjshiznit I don't care if you don't like the PS3, honestly I couldn't care less, but attack me and call me an idiotic fanboy just for saying I like PS3 a little bit better is simply showing me that you are like the thousands of idiots out there who consider PS3 fanboys ignorant idiots. Here's an idea, if you don't like the PS3, DON"T REPLY TO A FUCKING COMMENT INVOLVING THE PS3!!! All I said was I like it a little better than 360, and automatically I'm and "idiotic fanboy".

  • @rickyjshiznit BTW, the Ps3 doesn't suck ass, and calling someone ignorant for liking the PS3 is simply ignorant in of itself. Everyone likes certain things better than others, SO DON't FORCE YOUR OPINION ON ME!!!!

  • @gale1243 sorry pc had that :)

  • @gale1243 How do you get the best version? They're the same, you just got all the DLC with it but you had to play it a year later and we got huge price slashes on all the ME2 DLC

  • Just finished playing this game on ps3 and it was amazing.

  • I'm not having problems on the ps3 and i don't any patches installed.. I dunno about washed out graphics but framerate and load times are no issue..

  • Wasn't there a patch for PS3 Bayonetta which fixed a lot of the issues. I wanna play the game but I only have a PS3.

  • why the fuck bayonetta for xbox hhas a 9.5 and for ps3 has a 8.2

  • @rafasc94 IGN is dick riding on Bill Gates lmfao. Seriously I don't know

  • @darkwarriorkane yup i have recently come to see exactly how bias IGN is.

  • i think most of this was patched :) it went perfect when I played it

  • One of the fun-nest games i have EVER played... if you haven't already played it, its really cheap and i highly recommend you pick it up :D

  • how is this game overrated? its massively underrated if anything

  • @cloudnine500

    I know right, that guy is dumb as fuck....you now whats overrated? COD

  • @666x666Slipknotx exactly, couldnt agree more

  • @cloudnine500

    i just noticed i spelled know wrong lol :P oh well

  • Callin bs. None of the PS3 bugs happened when I played it last week.

  • @HonestGamersReviews really? thanks this review kinda made me think twice but i guess ill get it now

  • Bayonetta vs. Dante (devil may cry)

  • PS3 version aint that bad, especially with the load times solved with the patch. IGNorant.

  • @MultiSnyderman Well to be fair dude they made this review before the patch was even released.

  • @MultiSnyderman They review this on release day you know.Or you just could not find a better reason to troll.

  • @tacomaster141 Or maybe i found a reason to piss off noobs like you.

  • @Hardhitter056 to be honest, ign is stupid.

  • Bayonetta is better on xbox.

    Devil may cry 4 is better on ps3.

  • @Vietminh293 DMC4 is better on the PC :P

  • capcom has been fucking up ever since they started on the xbox.

  • @Vietminh293 no that's not the case -.-' They just run out of ideas

  • oh and my comment below i am not a fanboy of the ps3 i love both consoles equally xbox in my opinion has better exclusive games but ps3 has free online play i was just saying get over ps3 flaws

  • i own a ps3 and i have the solution for some of the problems

    (load times) you do know you can install game data

    (slowdowns) ps3 always does this get over it

    (screen tearing) have no eff-ing idea to what screen tearing means

    (texture popins) again ps3 does this get over it it doesn't distract you from the game you must have a very low attention span for this to become a bother

    i do think xbox is superior graphic wise but ps3 has bluray...nuff said

    LET THE PUSSY FANBOY REPLYS BEGIN...

  • @DRAGOON2ONIONKNIGHT lmao Xbox graphic superior? its the game engine fool ,all Games run on seperate game engines. FYI,Games were orginally created with tons of Computers in the company =). Enough said to your reply

  • @cutiepe2ce WoW aren't you a smart one

  • is there really a difference between the ps3 and xbox verson?

  • @MenosGronde yes

    

  • @MenosGronde yes...controls....thats it

  • @MenosGronde No when it first came out the game took forever to load but now it comes with an update that allows you to instal the game which speeds up the game so now there is no difference now

  • was the patch for ps3 any good

    did it fix frame rate issue, longer loadng time etc

    please let me know

  • @sudarsanvr yes it did and it looks amazing in hd

  • @sinshenlong

    thank you :D

  • If anyone can help I bought thiss game a feww games ago but coulodn't get past the prologue, i did the training and killed all enemies but then I couldnt get out of the graveyard since there are barries and its locked so I quit to main menu and tried to choose mission one but then i had to do Prologue ALL over and I tried several times but nothing.. any help anyone. Much appreciated (PS3 VERSION if that helps at all?)

  • @R100N3Y10 The fence around the graveyard is broken in one spot (the short cutscene that should play after you kill all enemies shows it to you), you should go there and just do a jump forward. You will have to win 2 more battles during the prologue before the first mission is even unlocked.

    Anyway, I guess the most likely solution is that you simply didn't notice the hole in the fence. Good luck with the game, it's really brilliant.

    Oh, and make sure you download the patch for the PS3 version.

  • @Nemediv Thanks alot Serves me right for skipping cut scenes cuz i didnt see the hole in the fence :L thank you :D

  • Is hypocracy how IGN made a Bayonetta review for PS3 and X360 on separated videos while Final fantasy XIII only got a video for both consoles while the PS3 version is faithful to the original japanese work and the 360 version was a compresed, reduced and lightned version of the game.

  • i think i say eggman in this review and its made by sega coincidence i think not

  • Still a good game

  • Everyone on facebook theyre is a group called "ps3 is better" to join you must know somebody so start asking around.

  • The reason why developers never port stuff from PS3 to 360 is because the 360 doesn't have the hardware. That's why, instead of working on both consoles, they think they can get away with a crappy port.

  • 8.2??? The ps3 version is not better than the 360 but it aint that bad IGNorant

  • Get God of War instead..

    God of War was specially made for Ps3..

  • I'm stating facts the Xbox has a better GPU but the PS3 has six cores dedicated for game. So if this was made for the Xbox first and then poorly tweaked for the PS3 this would happen. Thus the PS3 has more processing power cable of putting out higher resolution. Example Final Fantasy XIII. Verdict both console are capable of putting out great game if the game has flaws on either console is the developers to blame.

  • @LividLeon thank you, what I was trying to say. The developers decide how good the game is by way of how well they craft it, not the systems. It's like putting worn tires on a Porsche and saying it's handling sucks...

  • @LividLeon The PS3 only has one core. But it uses a very complex system, and many game developers are too lazy to program their games to take advantage of it, which is why most games look slightly better on the Xbox. This video can probably explain it better than I can: watch?v=zmHY_VnuDdE

  • @TheOriginalZombieDoG How you know it have one core so the documentaion on wikipedia and other site are wrong. That's what you telling me.

  • Um why are people talking about a FPS game on this video, didn't know this was a FPS game just because she has guns...go to cod videos then talk about it

  • 1:13-1:18 whats the point

  • @robertparkersmu its asian what do u think lmao

  • @SamiFFXII nah man...it looks great..I'd still get it!!

  • Too many games don't understand the importance of combat that flows in action/adventure games. Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, Kingdom Hearts series and a few other games are the only ones that have every understood this.

  • @DoubleDogDork DMC AND BAYONETTA FTW!!!

  • @DoubleDogDork Don't forget God of War

  • @timbojangles64 no that would be cod...

  • THIS game is way better then devil may cry 5..... they replaced dante with toad from xmen!!!

  • Bullshit. I never had a problem with loading times.Stupid Xbox fan boys.

  • @Ciphorus1

    Its because they patched it.

    If you got the game on the release then you would notice some loading screens poping up when going to your item screen and stuff like that. But if you got the patch and did install the game on your PS3 then all those problems like slow downs and loading times just goes away.

  • I don't know why the PS3 version has been criticised so much. The loading times are hardly noticeable if you make the effort to install the game data on the main menu. It cuts the loading times way over half. And it stops all the slowdown too.

    But this is truly an amazing game. Definitely a title I won't forget for a long time. I hope they make a sequel. :)

  • IGN is a bitch and very biased.

    look at this review in Xbox, it scores 9.5! but here, it only got 8.2

    they are also the same that got 2 negatives.

    IGN are really Xbox fantard bastards.

  • @IconStrife

    Its because PS3 version got a bad port of the X360 version. Loading times and Slow downs were noticeable before when they did the review but later Platinum games did release a patch that gave you the option to install the game on your PS3 which takes away all those problem the PS3 had. They did take away points because of those problems it got when the game was released. I can say that the PS3 and the X360 versions are the same now so think of it gettinng a 9.5 instead of 8.2.

  • @WireLessH but 8.2 is way too low.

  • @IconStrife

    Well, compared to the X360 version i agree but against all other games it is rated pretty high. IGN were too picky when reviewing the game. I had it since day one and it wasn't that bad compared to the X360 version. Loading times were actually pretty good inbetween stages cuz you could train and try moves while it was loading. The only complain i agree with is the Slowdown which's been fixed now. So IGNore (see what i did there xD) IGN and play and enjoy the game xD

  • @WireLessH yeah i know.. im planning on getting this game soon. its just the score i dont like..^^

  • Comment removed

  • @IconStrife Personally, I don't trust anything they say. I had just heard about problems for the PS3 version so I came here to see if it was being discussed in the comments.

  • xbox fanboys

    

  • I never noticed any of these problems except for frame rate. Even that didn't bother me, because from what I can tell, most games do that at chaotic moments.

  • @OmegaFujin they patched it to fix most (if not all) of the loading problems, and yeah I don't notice any loading anymore besides when you save

  • This review came out the same time the game came out, meaning that the problems that arose during the review process were going to be there when fans picked up the game during launch. A review isn't about what a game MIGHT be after it's patched.

  • God of War is a lot better than this, but the real question is. Devil May Cry 4 or Bayonetta?

  • @Jiyaijo Both are good games...but Bayonetta is more entertaining and fast than Devil may cry...

  • @xyo68 I see. Devil May Cry 4 has a better story though compared to this one, at least that's what I heard.

  • Terrible review. IGN needs to keep it's 360 and PS3 reviewers separate, I'm tired of seeing multi-console products being compared to their counterparts.

    I didn't come here for a technically review that complains about issues that can be solved with a patch. (Which was solved in a patch.) You're staff needs to be more forward thinking rather than chastising and asking for improvements in a sequel, when they can be fixed with something as simple as an internet connection and patience. :/

  • Nit pick nit pick nit pick god that's all ign does is bash on the ps3 version I played both while the 360 was good the ps3 was also good now mind you this was before the update and in the ps3 version I didn't have and lag time or ware or tear or whatever he talked about I think he just hates the ps3

  • I have this game on the PS3 I just picked it up a couple days ago and I have no idea what this guy is talking about. I haven't experienced any slow down and in comparison to the demo of the game I played on the Xbox 360 it looked just fine. I also don't have as much problem with loading it loads when u pause but I've never seen it load when picking up items and in between cutscenes.

  • gow girl style LOL

  • Hum. The PS3 version problems can be easily solved by installing the game. And the newer updates corrected the slowdown. This review is old, so that's understandable. Just pointing it out. Either way it's an incredible game. Highly recommend it.

  • When you gotta load, you gotta load.

  • i kniw the loading times have been fixed by installing the game onto the hard drive, but what about the slowdown?
