Bayonetta

Bayonetta in the next Soulcalibur?

by

The next Soul Cailbur game is in early production and it has already been confirmed that the team wants to add ‘guest characters’ from other franchises, which the series has been known to do. Many fans have been fighting it out in discussions, suggesting their favorite characters. Kamiya even re-tweeted fans asking for Bayonetta in the next Soul Cailbur installment.

Well, it doesn’t end there, Tekken director Katsuhiro Harada also likes the idea of having Bayonetta in the next Soulcalibur title.  This is not the first time the Tekken team has wanted to do something with a SEGA IP, awhile back they chatted about wanting to do a Virtua Fighter vs. Tekken game.

I doubt SEGA will approve the use of Bayonetta in the game, but I don’t see why they shouldn’t. Free promotion for Bayonetta 2.

Hideki Kamiya discribes favorite scene in Bayonetta

by


PSM3 magazine had a feature titled ‘100 moments of 2010’, where they had a chit chat with Bayonetta director Hideki Kamiya. The boys over at CVG got some quotes that didn’t make the magazine, like what his favorite moment of Bayonetta was.

“When people ask me what my favourite scene is, all I can say is ‘all of them’… Well, if I had to pick one, I would say it is the scene where Joy first appears in the game, with Bayonetta and her impostor getting into a pose battle.

That was my way of expressing the feminine notion that, to one woman, all other women are enemies. Even women walking by each other will check out what the other is wearing, and might smoulder a bit with antagonism. Women are scary.” – Hideki Kamiya, Director of Bayonetta

Also the YouTube video above is the scene he is talking about. CVG for some reason titled this article “X-rated Bayonetta scene is creator’s favourite”. Thanks for the misleading title, that scene is as X-Rated as those Britney Spears videos that play on MTV during the day for 7th grade girls.

Misconceptions about SEGA’s 2010 games

by


Something that I hate is when one someone writes something about a game that gets echoed everywhere I go. These people that keep on babbling on about how this game has these issues or its  a clone of some other mainstream game, most of the time these individuals never end up actually playing the game in question for themselves.

I have decided to give my 2 cents on what I consider false assumptions of SEGA’s 2010 games.

Bayonetta 2 teased again via Twitter

by

Kamiya loves to tease his fans on twitter. If he was a female, he would be posting half naked pictures, thankfully that doesn’t stop all males, like me.

He said we will be seeing more of Bayonetta soon. I assume that SEGA has a announcement ready before E3? Please?

Cliff Bleszinski wished he worked on Bayonetta

by


He really thought about the question

Cliff Bleszinski, or as he is known to his fans, Cliffy B, is a design director for Epic Games. His name is all over video game media after Microsoft did the huge hype train for Gears of War.
When twitter fan @AGamestopMgr asked him:

“if you could attach your name to any game in history, which game do you wish you made?”

Cliff said “Bayonetta”, that is right, out of all the games in history, he picked Bayonetta. I guess this guy is an ass man.

Bayonetta 2 waiting for the right time

by

Atsushi Inaba, Platinum Games co-founder, has told the guys at Eurogamer that he would “would love” to do Bayonetta 2. He also stated that it will be done “when the time is right”.

“There is no concrete plan or schedule that we can talk about, It’s not like Kamiya said, ‘Okay, we’re going to make this.’ But Bayonetta is definitely a special IP for us. We loved creating that game. We think it was a really good game. We would love to make a sequel to it when the time is right. That’s all we can say.” – Atsushi Inaba

Kamiya also talked about the sequel via twitter, stating that he believes we would be seeing Bayonetta again. Sounds like everyone wants a new game. Lets get it cracking.

Preorder Vanquish, get Bayonetta free! (Europe only)

by

I think I have just found the best deal of all time!

For a limited time only, if you pre-order Vanquish from PLAY.com not only will you get the fancy special edition game sleeve but you’ll get Bayonetta completely free. Unfortunately for those amongst us that are not in Europe this deal is not open to you, sorry. The deal is Europe only I’m afriad.

Now if you haven’t already got Bayonetta then slap yourself on the wrist. Bayonetta is fantastic… Vanquish is shaping up to be just as addictive and just as fun. So this deal is a must for those of you with no Bayonetta to show for yourself. Hell, this deal is so good it’s pretty much a must for everyone.

Rumor: Bayonetta 2 to feature co-op?

by


Here is another rumor out of the blue. We don’t even know for sure if there will be a Bayonetta 2, but infamous Hip Hop Gamer has already pronounced it will have a co-op mode called “Twin Sisters”. This rumor will most likely turn out to be false.

Not only has HHG ran a ton of rumors, most of them have turned out to be false. Some have come true, but if you throw enough darts, you’re bound to hit something. Last big SEGA rumor of his  said that SEGA would announce a new Shinobi game running on the Bayonetta engine. Not only that, the game was going to be announced in 2010. With TGS already behind us, we can basically dismiss this.

Hideki Kamiya believes we’ll see Bayonetta again

by

Bayonetta will most likely end up being the best action game this generation, now with Devil May Cry having an idienty crisis and Ninja Gaiden 3 not having Tomonobu Itagaki, it seems there is not much challenge standing in her way. Soon that will not be the case, she might have to compete for the title against herself.

Someone asked Kamiya if there would be a Bayonetta 2 and he responded “I believe so.” and then responded to someone else “She’ll [Bayonetta] be back if you believe so.” I hope there is a new game, lots of potential for another amazing experience.

New Bayonetta info coming this week

by

It seems all the big news these days has to be processed through twitter for whatever odd reason. New Bayonetta news is not any different, a tweet from director Yusuke Hashimoto informs followers that there will be some news, although to the extent of which, from a spinoff, sequel or DLC, is not address;

“Good morning. It looks like we’ll be able to share new information related to Bayonetta this week. Look forward to it”

So there you have it, if you’re a fan of Bayonetta, expect some sort of news this week.
