DMC5 has the best combat of any action game I've ever played. Bayonetta doesn't really compare. And when the combat/gameplay is this deep and oozing in variety, I hardly noticed that every level was basically a linear hallway with intermittent enemy spawns. I think that's the sign of a good action game: you can keep fighting enemies and it just never gets old. I was in the middle of my DMD playthrough before Sekiro came out but I'm eager to come back to it.

Bayonetta 3 will surely be a great game but I've always preferred Devil May Cry's combat, and DMC5 is the series' peak--ergo the pinnacle of action games as a whole.

The fact that this game did so well critically while being monstrously hard pretty much ends the "all reviewers suck at video games" nonsense

I think it's valid to point out that Lady and Trish don't actually do anything in this game (at least so far from what I've played). In previous games there were a lot of scenes where they kicked major ass but those don't seem to be here

Complaints about the "nudity" are just silly though. DMC has been around since 2001; you should know what you're getting by now

Bayonetta and Devil May Cry are different styles of action games but I've simply had more fun playing DMC5 than Bayonetta 1 or 2. But I generally prefer DMC over Bayonetta.

I think DMC5 deserved a 10 more than Bayo 2

Bwahahaha

Glad to see RE2 is doing better

Dabbed on by RE2 lol

Yes. I haven't played RE2 in more than a decade and I bought Deluxe just for this.

REmake is the best survival horror game I've ever played and the best video game remake I've ever played.

Director's Cut is a rerelease of the PS1 game with changes to item locations and enemy placement. The same exact game with some very minor twists. Capcom literally released it to apologize for the original RE2's delay.

I think REmake, with all of its original content, fantastic visuals and atmosphere, and brilliant crimson head mechanic, just makes the original versions of Resident Evil 1 obsolete--especially now that REmake is available on virtually every modern platform.

Smash Ultimate, didn't expect the game itself to be so good but the online to be even worse than Smash 4's

Haven't beaten Spider-Man yet but I'm loving it so far, much to my surprise. So far I actually am enjoying it much more than the Arkham games I've played (Asylum/City). Hands-down, this game has the best open-world traversal ever; I'm actually shocked fast travel exists because you'd have to be out of your mind to even think of using it. Also: Spider-Man absolutely, unquestionably has better combat than any of the Arkham games. Spidey's moveset is really varied, the game rewards creativity and experimentation, you can make really effective use of the environment, it's actually challenging, and it feels fucking incredible. Arkham's combat was novel when Asylum first released in 2009 but it's been done by so many other games by now that it's just nauseatingly simplistic, easy, and boring.
