Which one do you think is better?

EDGE said that Bayonetta has slapped Kratos in the face

And IGN give Bayonetta score 9.5 equal to Uncharted 2, which won GOTY 2009 at many sites

So it's clear that Bayonetta one of the best hack and slash game ever made

And my question is will God of War III top Bayonetta as the king of hack and slash game?

Graphic wise, God of War III is 10000000x times better than Bayonetta

Story wise, God of War III is also better (even IGN said Bayonetta story is not as good as Uncharted)

Gameplay wise, which is I dont know, Bayonetta is looking awesome even though I haven't played them because I dont have a 360

But I still think God of War III will be better than Bayonetta just because one thing: God of War series always EPIC!!

What do you guys think?

I'd say GOW3. I played the Bayonetta demo and hated it. Felt too much like DMC to me, another game I dislike.

God of War can never be "king", so I guess this one goes to Bayonetta.

That's because Bayonetta is inspired by DMC. It's not meant to be a GoW rip-off, but a DMC rip-off.

Played the GoWIII demo, absolutely outstanding. I'll be surprised if anything will be better than that.

Bayonetta, simply because I prefer the gameplay in Devil May Cry to the gameplay in God Of War.

I'm going to have to choose option D) This thread is going to be full of cows trying to make out that GoW3, a game they haven't played, is better than Bayonetta, a game they also haven't played yet, thus making themselves look like fools. Personally judging by what I've seen and played (Bayonetta demo and the previous 3 GoW games, because let's face it, 3 won't be a huge change) I have to say it's a tie, they're both going to be fantastic games and they are both also completely different styles of action game.

Did you just say God of War was made for eight year olds? I'm just making sure I read that right.

I imagine God of War will end up better than Bayonetta, but as Phoenix534 pointed out, Bayonetta is more of a Devil May Cry rip-off than a God of War rip-off; Dante's Inferno is a God of War rip-off, and it's got no chance of living up to God of War 3.

They are two different types of games in the same genre ------ God of War games were always kind of their own thing ....... while everyone was really arguing over DMC and NG for their hardcore action styles. It would kinda be like comapring Burnout Paradise to Forza 2 if you get my drift.

There's probably this comparable group - (GoW III, Dante's Inferno , Darksiders) ........ and then this group - (Ninja Gaiden II , DMC4 , Bayonetta). Kratos can be king and Bayonetta can be queen and they can rule together.

Bayonetta is a better game. God of War 3 is a more casual game, but it's still really fun and great. (Obviously I'm going off the demos, reviews, and what I know so far.)

Other. Rip off or otherwise. Dante's Inferno has a real good chance of being the king of hack and slash.

For all i care, even if GOW3 beats Bayonetta, the game has proven to outshine every single next gen sequal, including Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, Devil May Cry 4, and the the "not so next gen" GOW collection. Whether god of war 3 beats it or not doesnt bother me, because the game will either sit 1 or 2 in the best hack n slash games of this generation. GOW has the weakest combat system out of the heavyweights, and for me, im a combat fanatic so i will definately choose Bayonetta over GOW3.

*sigh*

Nothing in the genre beats God Of War 3. The closest thing would be Darksiders and that's probably going to be a lot better than Bayonetta regardless of scores.

this is the best post of the day. there is no denying that both will be great. both will score in the 9s. one is a stylized action game, the other is a dark brutal game based on greek mythos. Bayonetta best action game on the 360 GOW3 best action game on the ps3 a win for 360 owners and a win, win for ps3 owners.

Daimyo is technically inferior to Duke, cuz Daimyo can mean a lord with small, insignificant piece of land, while Dukes usually had huge influence over a country's affair during old times. You should have said shogun

Well, as people on SW talk about games such asHalo Reach and Agent as if they have personally played them, this kind of comparison is pretty par for the course.

King Of the Action genre is still Ninja Gaiden Black IMO. Out of those two neither, I never got into God Of War and Bayonetta is just Devil MayCry with more flash and a deeper combo system.

Yeah... you kinda missed the word "probably." I was just saying many people on here are just judging GoW3 from gameplay videos and not the demo because the demo is not available to the general public, but people have actually played the Bayonetta demo but have nothing to compare it to except gameplay videos, so choose Bayonetta. I personally didn't think GoW 3 looked so amazing until I tried the demo.

I've only played Bayonetta, but nothing about it seemed that special. It was, however, the PS3 version which is apparently quite gimped.

Maybe people have played God of War 1, God of War 2, or God of War Chains of Olympus like I have? Surely three full games, during which the gameplay style has had no radical changes is a better indication of how GoW3 will turn out than a demo which, going by previous GoW demos, will feature different moves and stuff as to what you actually have in the game at that point.

God Of War (Kratos) for sure. Im just not a fan of the japanese style games.
