Agreed. Personally, I find Bayonetta's combat to be leaps and bounds above God of War's.

I agree with this agreement :P. Granted, I haven't played GOW 3 yet (soon, though...very soon) but I'm guessing it'll be the same as playing GOW2 overall. Bayonettas was more original and over the top.

No, just no. If you want a better comparison check gamerankings and metacritic instead of being selective.

Did they actually say that? I find it ridiculous that people are comparing the two. Besides falling under the hack-n-slash genre, they couldn't be more different.

Its funny too cause the one gripe everyone has with the previous games is the crappy sub weapons you get, where as in this one everyone is saying how all the weapons are awesome. Really all these reviewers need to play it on the hardest difficulty because thats where you really see the depth of the combat, the game is meant to be approachable for new comers and insanely difficult for those that want a challenge, which it most definitely was in the previous 2 games on the hardest setting. You cannot beat the game using the blades alone on the hardest difficulty.

The combat in Bayonetta really fresh.

God of War's Epicness is what's keeping it AAA (just barely).

and for me, i don't care too much for hack n slash anyways, so I take epic set pieces over good combat mechanics.

Bayonetta was a cool game, but my game saved at a boss fight and my life meter was at practicly 0. And there was no way to get to a store and buy more health. Because of this I gave up and I really don't care to ever beat it. GoW on the other hand I would of started the game over, Bayonetta I really did't want to do anything over again. So in my mind GoW>>>Bayonetta

And why is everyone acting like it's an Xbox exclusive? I think Lems are just mad because they can't play GoW 3

I think its funny that people complain about the combat never changing, but continue to play, and never complain aboutgames like MW2, Halo, other generic FPS, etc.

They did this too with Dantes Inferno before the score hit. (I think it deserves higher than what it got even though its a shameless ripoff. I was watching my friend play and it looked like fun.)

While Bayonetta's gameplay was better, i believe that GOW3 will be more epic and a much better game overall. The only thing that Boyonetta have over GOW3 it seems is gameplay. From what i seen, GOW3 visuals blows Bayonetta visuals away, and the story will be miles better than Bayonetta (i thought that Bayonetta's story was horrid and cheezy at best).

Bayonetta has a better combat system. GOW as far as combat systems, isn't as good. GOWs huge scale, story, great graphicsand violence are what make it AAA.

Bayo has faster paced combat this doesnt mean its better it just means its faster and less grounded.

Gow has better visuals,puzzles, voice acting, story and characters.

Bayo is a good game but extremely shallow and forgettable... when you judge a game you judge all the aspects I mentioned. Gow hits all the above points and floors while doing it.

Trust me. If you played it you would NEVER forget that game. Their is no other action game thats crazier than Bayonetta or has a combat system more over the top. Comparing Bayonetta's combat to GOW is like comparing a Cheetah to a Tortus.

And Metacritic, the average of almost ALL available review sites, states GOW3 is superior.

Note that most of those sites are PS3 only and would give GOW3 a 10 no matter what.

Bayonetta is more combo crazy with all of stuff going on, but GoW III is more crazy because of the sheer brutality and just doing straight up mean things...

Really? I found GoW to be the shallow and forgettable ones. Doesn't mean I don't enjoy them. GoW is just a better cinematic experience. Gameplay keeps me playing. GoW has interesting puzzles and good combat. To each his own. I found Bayonetta's combat to be of high quality.

Wrong, just b/c it's a magazine/web site based on Playstation doesn't mean really much. Check their other reviews. Also, they go on a 1 to 10 scale by 1's and a 1 to 5 scale... They aren't like IGN that goes by .1

IGN is a freaking joke now...all they do is have a Playstation team that over critisizes games, while the Xbox 360 team under critizises and ignores problems within the games they are reviewing. MW2 looks like complete garbage on all systems. It has probably the worst texturing this gen, pixelated shadowing, static lighting, and average at best character models, and they give it a 10 in graphics? IGN:"Weill itz da big leapz for COD4z" well its easy to make a big leap from COD 4, as its plagued with the problems i listed above, but its somehow uglier than MW2...Anyways, they gave Bayonetta, a game that had a crappy story,horendous character models, and average visuals at best a 9.5 while GOW3 a 9.3? I understand though, because the Xbox team rated Bayonetta, while the Playstation team rated GOW3

i can see that. i dont know why cows are so excited about gow 3, the first 2 are wildly over-rated. ok its pretty, so what? its still a linear 10 hour button masher (RENTAL at best, $60? hell no)
