Another case of not including any hint as to what platform this is on in either the post or the trailer.

It looks extravagantly awesome....it's totally wild!  :D

I love the gentle nod to Okami.

This trailer implies that the game has many of the character design qualities of GOD HAND :D

EDIT: : /

360 and PS3, that was announced when the game was. Besides, look in the gamepage, that's what the fricking link above is for!.

O.o
Oooooh that's a really good trailer. Looks really cool!

that trailer was damn awesome, thanks.

Just as over the top like God of War and Devil May Cry.... how soon shall we expect this? :)

O wow my interest in this game went form 0 to 100 after watching this, I absolutely love its craziness.

Ha looks like i can finally ad something new to my most despised concept page.

That was incredible, everything except the main character's design. I don't know why but she looks... Odd, in a bad way. The boss fight where she keeps switching from animal to human was sweet though. PC version SEGA.

bayonetta more like bulletta

HAHA FORCED IRONY

That's to be expected seeing as the director of this was also the creator( I believe?) of DMC. I also really sorta wanna like this game, but just looking at the combat for a split second looks like you're playing DMC just with some female character in the place of Dante...looks so exactly identical, I have a hard time believing they will be very different at all.

Ah so it wasn't just me that noticed those weird lines in my post(no idea why..) Anyway I'm just saying from this brief trailer that is shown, I notice lock on shooting with guns, and health bars in the same exact place as DMC and since its using the same engine(or appears to be near identical at least) it really does look like DMC with a female lead. As I said, I really do wan to like it, and I hope you're right in that it does do a lot to separate itself from DMC. Just from a brief look at it such as this, they look extremely similar..that's all i was pointing out.

I wondered if you had removed some quotes or something :/

Trust me, there's a load of innovative things going on, it's just a question if they work or not.

Hideki Kamiya recently said that the game was only 50% done. He also said that the time spent so far on the project, has been to implement core gameplay mechanics that work well and are fun. If that's all out of the way, the rest of the project should become more swifter, and the could well meet it's 2009 deadline. I do have a niggling feeling it's more likely to hit sometime in Q1 2010 though. I should add that it's likely to hit in the West before Japan, as PlatimumGames are focused on our market first and foremost.We will see ample amounts of this game during shows this year, so it's not all bad if it gets pushed back a touch."

Kamiya worked on the original DMC as one of the main designers.

You could not be more wrong dude, there's a ton of stuff that's totally new here!. Kamiya is mindful of the fact that nobody wants this to be, "DMC with a female lead". The nature of Bayonetta's character design, and the theme and story the game has, brings in a load of new interesting gameplay mechanics that are conducive to deeper fresher combat. Much of it has never been seen before in a game of this type.

If you want more info check out the game page or look around here.

"Bayonetta - First Climax Trailer"

Cool, a little more info on the story at least. And wow, she can transform, that's awesome!

I have been predicting this game will release in the fall of this year (August-September), but even if it was pushed back I wouldn't mind so much.

I couldn't have said it better myself. But you know what, if it really did up being just like Devil May Cry with a female lead, I don't think that's really such a bad thing. I mean, this isn't another creator trying to capture what made the first Devil May Cry work so well, this is the same creator, he knows what he's doing and he knows how to adapt the formula to make it better. That being said, I do not believe it will be just "DMC with a female," but we're really just going to have to wait until it releases for people to change their opinion on it.  "

This game looks ridiculous, and it's all the better for it. Should be a blast to play.

Just like that other game."

The black guys voice sounds like Greg Eagles aka Peter Stillman from MGS series and Garcian Smith from Killer 7

Bayonetta is so hot... agile... strong... determined... seductive.. gothic... and graceful...
I am falling in loving with her ♥ ...

I hope this game is like DMC, but on crack and with naked hair witches who kill angels and use their halos as currency

Kamiya says she is his ideal woman, I think Mr Kamiya might have a like for a little light spanking ;)"

Mr. Kamiya has a great taste in women, indeed."

It's not as good as what it's trying to rip off, namely Devil May Cry. Not as stylish I mean. Even the main girl isn't that hot.

"Quite a few people reckon she looks like Senator Palin, lol"

WHOA.

What are you saying?

"

Okay, I will give it to you that Bayonetta is not as hot of a chick as Dante, but she's still pretty sexy.

"but she's still pretty sexy."

Devil May Cry with boobs man.

I'm totally for it.

It's being made by the creator of DMC, so you can't call it a rip-off. That's like calling Rock Band a Guitar Hero rip-off. I have to agree with your last point though - Bayonetta is very unattractive IMO. Her proportions are waaay off, and not in a hot way. Her legs are almost twice as long as her torso, and her head is way too small for her body. To top it off, her face kinda resembles Sarah Palin."

This game is fucking nuts. She suplexes a massive dragon.

Oh em gee.

Can't wait for this. It's going to rock. How can it not?

EDIT: On the "sexy" line of comments -- I don't find her sexy at all, but I don't think they're trying to create Lara Croft. Everything is super-exaggerated and over the top, hence her ridiculously long legs. It's almost parody in a way. It's like they are saying "here are the conventions of what people think are 'sexy'... let's go overboard with them". From what I can tell, the game is meant to be nuts -- and the super-suggestive, almost overly-sexy, character suits that mood perfectly.

She's a brilliant protagonist. You just know the voice acting is going to be hilariously stupid too.

She is SOOO sexy.

Looking awesome.

The title is misleading. Shenanigans! Shenanigans!!

A few new screens have popped up after a SEGA event in Japan yesterday.

That's some fucked up shit (in a good way). Are the Otogi dudes involved?

This game looks pretty good.
