    ARE her weapons made out of hair? Her summons are, for sure. But the weapons?

    There's one thing I'm wondering. How are she pulling the triggers on her foot guns?

    I thought that as well.

    It's depressing that I don't question the hair-as-clothes-and-monsters, but I question the mechanics of foot guns.

    It's like Crystal skull and the fridge is the thing that suspended my disbelief most.

    Well her guns are her hair too, right? I mean it seems more strange to think that she can make clothing and guns out of her hair but can't shoot the foot-hair-guns.

    I don't think the guns are hair. I haven't seen anything that would indicate that.

    If I want to look at fake bodies, I'll dial up some bad porn. Or skip to good porn. If I want to play a game, I want to play a good one. If the good game in question happens to have boobs or crotches or bare male chests, great, but the game comes first.

    I know you're not accusing the game of this, but complaints like this (judging this book solely by its cover) fails to take into account that - based on its pedigree - it will probably be a very good game. A benchmark-setting game.

    Seriously. Look at the games these guys were attached to. The original Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe, Okami, and God Hand. In other words, masterpieces of their respective genres.

    Edit: in other words, these fellows don't make bad games. And I'm not about to assume they're starting now, just because their new one is ten times more over-the-top than anything else they've done in the past. If anything, it makes me more hopeful.

    Unless this game manages to have actually fun gameplay, I have zero interest. And the TGS video is the first time I've been repulsed by a game for clearly trying to reach out with sex appeal (not even Dead or Alive Volleyball matches this). It's like, "Oh yeah, check out this hardcore bitch who uses guns!" Her body structure is goofy as hell too.

    Are you seriously suggesting that Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Voleyball, with independent breast physics and bikini models and textures that take into account whether or not erect nipples would be visible through the material the bikini is made from, as well as totally-not-underage-no-sir-not-with-those-DD-cups pole dancing, is less egregious than Bayonetta?

    I saw little gameplay in the video. I saw her using her feet to shoot guns (more than once) and a fuckton of crotch shots and boobs.

    Really, I'd like to know a bit more about the gameplay and how fast / slow it'll be, and less about the character's stupid legs and angles her ankles take.

    I guess what I meant to say is I didn't expect Bayonetta to have as much focus on the character's crotch. DoA Volleyball you can already see what that's about, it's not full of surprises. Bayonetta caught me off guard.

    Even before this trailer, most of the promo artwork and teases for Bayonetta since E3 have been showing off her legs in incredibly high stiletto heels with the pistols on them, with the skin-tight bodysuit. Plus, this game is from the mind of the DMC guy, whose games, even without his influence beyond the first, are still fairly decently known for having pretty sexually-charged female leads.

    And you had no idea that Bayonetta was going to be even remotely close to the over-the-top "kitschy sexy" stuff we've seen in that second trailer?

    I mean, I find the over-the-top-ness of the whole thing a bit off-putting, but I just find it mind-boggling that you and apparently several other people never saw any of this coming.

    Umm, maybe this is some people's first glimpse?

    But yeah, if you been following this game at all, I don't think you have reason to be THAT surprise.

    I do agree that the latest trailer is a bit offputting for me. I guess now I know how people felt about DMC3. I fucking loved(still do) all the cut scenes in that game, but there were a bunch of people that hated how outlandish they were. This is pretty much the same thing, except that instead of totally awesome missile riding Dante, we have ass shots galore.

    I don't see how this trailer any worse then the shit Japan has been putting out the last few years. Look what's happening to Final Fantasy. Jump in the air, slice 50 guys, then land and pose for the camera. Maybe throw in a wink for good measure. Either that, or all the main characters are 9 years old. People should be mad at Japan as a whole for the dumb things they are doing with stories, setting, cut scenes, character design, and so on. At least the gameplay that they did show looked really neat.

    I'm thinking it will be a very fun DMC-alike, but it won't push us into another dimension of wonder or anything. Hopefully they add in some unique elements that make it lovely. Oh, and if they let you build your own combos like God Hand did, I'll buy 2 copies.

    Bad:
    Bayonetta looks like Sarah Palin.
    Bayonetta's voice is nearly as annoying as Sarah Palin's.
    Bayonetta shows off her vagina more than Britney Spears.

    The good far outweighs the bad so I'm pretty damn excited to play it.

    Edit: I kinda agree with Neva. Fuck Japan for all their dumb trends. Now what they need to do is make the main character a dude, then give him a wicked looking helmet and some massive muscles. And to top it all off, set the game in a gritty futuristic world. THAT would be hot.
