Bayonetta is now Backwards Compatible on Xbox One

@freedomfreak: Who told you Xbox One version is improved? I call bullshat on that one. Other than fps, i see no improvements over the Xbox 360 versions.

Wii U is still superior until proven otherwise.

You are a strange, little man. Like, holy shit.

@freedomfreak: Woot, woot. You know how i roll.

>A central mechanic to the game cripples the framerate
>Said central mechanic is tied to one of the best mechanic for higher skilled players in terms of dodge offset, which allows you do the most robust combos
>Response times are actually beneath both the 360 and Xbox One version

>best version in a game about tight, fast, and kinetic action

smh

That's without getting into how much better of a gamepad the 360 pad is for Bayonetta, between better face buttons and an analog stick that doesn't have the absurd ass deadzones over the wiiu pro controller.

This game needs to be on PC!

The preview program fixes the issues on the One, the xbox one version is better.

I've checked earlier, and the major framerate dip shown in the DF video is gone.

I say let him have it. Anybody that thinks the BC on X1 isn't worth anything and then tells someone they aren't a "real gamer" has some issues. Enjoy the game Salt.

Thank you Microsoft, and today a solemn God bless the United States.

Cool game, probably never ever want to return to it in my life.

And yet that system costs the same.

What a pathetic OP. Come on, man...

Dude, what are you on? Are you on Bath Salts? :P

I will just have to assume the worst and give you a little what-for in return, but truth be told I'm pleased you are giving Bayonetta 360 a try. :P

I sure hope to Lord Odin this isn't some strange retaliatory effort for your own fanboy BC thread you refused to answer for 9 months ago. If so, your memory, is awful. LINK.

What I see is a deliberately created dupe thread for passive-aggressive trolling against a targeted user? I feel like a conversation or context would be nice, lol. The hilarious part is I'm not sure where the misplaced anger is even coming from, but I like to think it's not me...

Salty and sad as always, lol, you shouldn't let people irk you into creating threads with seemingly misplaced anger, lies, and/or poor memory (I don't target and create threads about people that aggravated me, don't let them get to you).

TBH, I have no clue what this Salty fella is "So, So Sad" about, but I certainly enjoyed 2009's Bayonetta as I spoke many times on the subject in 2008 before release and 2009 upon release as a true blue Hideki Kamiya fan.

Case in point what I said on the subject 7 years ago:

It seems to me the PS3 port is definitely inferior to an awesome 360 version...

My main concern is Sales. I don't typically care about sales, but I sure hope this game finds a decent audience. I've been talking this game up for a long time.

PWNED!? lol.

I'm confused as to why this thread was so salty, but enjoy your game purchase.

@Salt_The_Fries: A marginal amount of input lag is a small price to pay for a stable image. The tearing in Bayonetta is quite noticeable.

In addition since it performs about the same as 360 in frame rate, sometimes better sometimes worse, and has extra content it's the best version.

Xbone emulation seems bugged, it is in the small instance DF noted but no doubt that's not all.

I agree.

Anyone that makes bogus, false, and radical claims (a huge cry for help/attention) whilst creating a thread of random, misplaced, and clearly longtime butthurt does have some issues.

Anyone that believes such claims without proof from a well known crackpot may also have issues of their own.

The idea of ignoring a fantastic 2009 360 game just because of a dislike of almost all Japanese developed games (Polish inspired anti Japanese Xenophobia?), only to suddenly want to play this wonderful game in mid-2016 because of rampant fanboyism due to the amazing Kamiya game being added to the Xbone BC list in 2016 is troubling. That said, at least one more person is trying the game despite their well known prejudices. Too bad they had to go full fanboy in creating a poorly constructed thread based on lies/clearly misunderstandings (due to English being a 2nd language, methinks) though. :(

I've said it 1000+ times about a variety of BC topics in SW (Atari, PS2, GBA, Wii, Wii U, 360, Xbone, etc). In this case, BC on Xbone can be worth a lot depending on the person (it's a good incentive to get even oddball crackpots to check out games they willfully ignored for years in this case), and I've always maintained to each their own on BC over and over and over (for me, I have too many 360 titles that are not BC to get rid of my 360s).

Regarding a "real gamer", who can say what that really is?

I say let him have it too, that is, let's hope he gets the right mental help and medication prescription to aid this poor soul and treat the alzheimer's disease that is clearly affecting his memory.

The real winner is 2009 Bayonetta's exposure though. The game deserves it as I've been saying since 2008 before the game released, and many times after it's 2009 release (I reserved and waited to buy it day one on 360).

Tootles! :P

Wage your war with salt, on your own bro. Solidgame is the bitchass Cow in this reference. NOT HAVING BC is punkbitch, Japanese, weaboo, SHYTE!!!!

Good for you Salt.

Microsoft backwards compatibility is killing it!!! All we need now is Tales of Vesperia and Im set

Interesting, as I'm not trying to wage any war (I didn't create any threads to attack), but rather just defending what I assume was my e-honor (lol).

I don't have any ill will with salty tbh, but then again, I don't create threads targeting specific users with the intent of trying to provoke and troll them.

Without context and previous run ins with Salty, who can say what or who he's talking about?

I do wish him the best and I hope he enjoys his new purchase of 2009's Bayonetta. At least he is giving the game a shot (finally and only because BC exists).

LOL just wanted to see how quickly I'd get a response. Godspeed.

Played this game on ps3 and never knew about it being so awful compared to the 360 version. I thought it was fine.
