Jul 25, 20124A button masher that arbitrarly raises the difficulty way high so it can seem sooo hardcore. That's what this is. This is not better than god of war. This is a scam that we're supposed to get excited about because it looks so cool. It looks stupid. I guess that was the point. The developers wanted the game to be stupid. And they succeeded.

Mar 8, 20137Altough not that bad, there are better action games to play.

Oct 30, 20119Fantastic game. I love the mish-mash button fighting system and really excites me. Cool storyline to be a part of. The enemies are really hilariously awesome and gorgeously created. The bosses fight are memorable and bayonetta manages to own them all. I only wish the game could be longer.

Oct 5, 201010Bayonetta is an impressive game that is rich in gameplay, story and graphics. The superb features that are in this game are flawless. I reccomend this game to everyone who is thinking of buying it, it is a truly indulging game all-together.

Nov 30, 201010An amazing experience meant to played by those who enjoy the Devil May Cry series and maybe even the Ninja Gaiden games. The ps3 may be the inferior product when compared to the 360, however the patch released make this a more enjoyable port. Overall, fast-paced, intense, epic, and a must have on any gamers' shelf.

Nov 25, 20125A button-smash game with a pathetic story and character development.
It sucked.
Only horny teenagers will like this piece of crap.
Play other games because this one doesn't deserve your attention. -
Mar 18, 20138Awful game design decisions (platforming sections that break the flow of combat, quick time events, lengthy cutscenes you have to open a menu to skip, etc.) and occasional lag keep Bayonetta from being the 10/10 sterling action game it deserves to be. Still highly recommended.

Jun 5, 20115If you're like me and hate games with time limits, you will not like this game. That's even more annoying than the pure button-mashing that is the crux of the game. Very disappointing game.
-
Feb 24, 20129Great game, fun to play, good combos, very good graph's, interesting charactere and story.
its a shame that you can't start a new game with old charactere with points, stats and bought items. -

AnthonyC.Jan 9, 20105I do not know who is paying the "professional reviewers" but this game does not deserve anything above a 5 out of 10. The plot is pathetic which is saying something given that it being such a fantasy game i had no expectations of it being realistic (and just because it is Japanese does not excuse the ridiculous dialogue, plot and development). It is also not fun to play. Avoid it like the plague.

DaveJan 11, 201010Even with the PS3 issues, Bayonetta is a standout in its genre in terms of style, character and enemy design, and fighting fluidity. If you like 3rd person action, this cannot be missed.

MaxplankJan 10, 20105It looks like the game was designed by a horny 14 year old teenager. The character design the color usage is crazy, the screen always seems to be cluttered with random sh*t (flowers, butterflies etc.) and those stilettos i don't think its easy to walk in those let alone fight. The game is outright Stupid.

CalumG.Jan 6, 20109Awesome game, the character design/art style is awesome and the combat is great, not as polished as the 360 version but still a great game.

DanJ.Jan 6, 201010A truly great action game. One of the best I've played in ages. I found it better then any of the Ninja Gaiden or Devil May Cry game. Yes it has some loading errors on the PS3 but with a simple patch this could be fixed easily.

ShakeelJan 12, 20105Bought this becaues i love devil may cry series but this game just sucks. It looks like this game was made by a horny teenager and the gameplay is just shite to much stuff going on and i cant even keep track of the character. not worth 40 quid only worth 20 instead buy darksiders which has a better story and pacing and blows bayonetta out of the water.

MichaelH.Jan 12, 20105Why a 5 out of 10? because it's a sloppy Ps3 port. Hey SAGA it's 2010 do something right or don't do it at all.

JoshuaWJan 20, 201010Bayonetta is a MUST BUY. This game was developed by the same people responsible for Devil May Cry, Resident Evil, Viewtiful Joe, Okami, God Hand, and Madworld. Buy this game.

BARDEM_Jan 23, 20105This game gets a solid 5, its been done before, we are not getting anything new. Okay I have just played the demo but that was enough for me, its to cliche with no substance and for all you sonic lovers **the rings** are back, Sega you disappoint me, let the**sonic rings** go.

RhodyT.Jan 6, 201010Quite possibly the best action game ever. The technical issues on the PS3 are mostly things you wouldn't notice unless someone specifically mentioned them to you, or show you the Xbox 360 version. Except for the load times. Those are pretty terrible.
-
-
JasonG.Jan 9, 20108great game sadly the loading times muck the game up i own both consoles and wish now i had bought the xbox 360 version never mind.

90Bayonetta is the kind of game that makes me appreciate why I love videogames. It really defines a time when things were not taken too seriously and the focus was more on style and gameplay than anything else.
-
80Bayonetta on the PlayStation 3 is simultaneously gratuitous, ludicrous, and great, but it's unfortunately held back from its potential by a number of technical issues.
-
85Bayonetta is a refreshing and somewhat surprising addition to an already extensive catalogue of action games. A must-buy for any anime gaming fan, and an excellent representation of the genre.
