Itagaki Blasts Developer Hideki Kamiya And Bayonetta

http://www.psxextreme.com/ps3-news/5274.html

"If I made a similar game as a game I made in the company I quit, people would say, 'What an idiot, can't he make anything else?' Well, that is more or less the opinion I have for, uh, that Bayo-something game."

and people badmouth Jaffe...

so heimplied thatkamiya is an idiot... real mature.

K, that's crossing the line. I like Itagaki, but that's just mean. Watch Bayonetta be a better game that NGII.

I have no respect for Itagaki

starting to really dislike that man.

So he's basically saying to the director of DMC that if he's going to leave and make his own game at least make it more original. i have no problem with that comment. In fact, lets remember this for the future to see if Itagaki makes something similar to NG or DOA.Ontain

My favorite developer makes me feel embarrassed to be a fan of his once again... :(

What is Itagaki saying because Hideki Kamiya also created Viewtiful Joe for the GCN and PS2, He also created Okami I think.

Ya know I'd be worried if Itagaki didn't make comments like this. :P

And who still has a job?

true, gaming wouldn't be the same without his oatmeal cookie face around...

Teufelhuhn

i think the gaming world needs someone like him,

but how dare he insult the maker of Okami? :evil: boooooo

actually I find Igataki a funny guy and a "celebrity" in his own way... But I don´t take him seriously thoughGiancar

I feel the same way. Besides, he probably had a few drinks before he said that. :P

I dont know why but whenever i hear these kind of comments from Itagaki, they make me chuckle but when i hear someone like Jaffe make them, i just :roll:

The sad thing is that his MASTER WORK Ninja Gaiden is a blatant rip-off of the gameplay mechanics and gameplay set-up of DMC1. Hell even some of the stages in Ninja gaiden are strikingly simular to DMC1 it's obvious he copied. How so many other people failed to notice this is beyond me.

Anyone ever remember the bookcase stage in DMC1 with the crumbled stairway to a second floor( a game that released in 2001 mind you)? Ninja Gaiden has the same exact bookcase and crumbled stairway set-up after the fight with Alma (Ninja Gaiden release in 2003 or 2004). The guy is quite the clown.

seriously how old is itagaki. He sounds like a 12 year old bully.

Go continue playing with boobs, Itagaki. No one cares about what you have to say anymore.

lol! What an ass. Idgaf though, just glad he's still making games. Can't wait to see he what he does next. :)

Lol, typical Itagaki.

I don't agree with half of what he says, but it would be a pretty boring world if no one spoke their mind.

Itagaki is the Kanye West of the game industries LOL. Created one good game (Ninja Gaiden) then his ego eats him up. Besides NG 1(black,Sigma) being a great game, NG2 was decent at most. All he has left is that awful overrated p.o.sDead or Alive series(one worse3D fighter series besides SF: EX). DoA the button masher dream and pervs fantasy game.

How can you guys say he crossed the line and then you turn around and champion loud mouths like Cliffy B, David Jaffe, Kaz Hirai and all the other people in the games business who spout utter nonsense everytime you give them a mic or a keyboard?

DOA may be a button masher, but it still takes a serious degree of skill and dexterity to play it competitively. The series may never have reached the dizzying heights of VF4, but at least there was never a DOA game as bad as Tekken 4 or Soul Calibur III.

for everyon'e amusement:

Book staircase level with crumbled staircase with 2nd floorin DMC 1 (2001)

Book staircase level with crumbled staircase with 2nd floorin Ninja gaiden on xbox (2004)

:P Itagaki you silly kid you, don't bit the hand that feeds you.

Always nice to hear from Itagaki after a long hiatus. :D

"Oh no he didnt!!" :lol: Really, it's cool to see Itagaki speaking his mind. Besides I'm more a DOA fan than a DMC fan but I will play Bayonetta.

Sorry you missed the point then. That ISN'T the only thing I'm saying he copied but it's the most blatant and obvious that anyone could look at and say "Yeah was studying DMC1 and obviouslycompied somethings when making Ninja Gaiden for xbox"

He also copied the "touch and item and read the caption feature" also the "run on the wall mechanic", and other simular stage layouts, gameplay mechanics and stage features...you obviously wouldn't recognize them.

I didn't say he copied EVERYTHNG, but yes Itagaki did copy many of the basic elements of ninja gaiden from DMC1. Do youself a favor and go play it (DMC1) and then play NG1 (on xbox) back to back LIKE I HAVE DONE and then you won't be making the selfowning comments you're making now.

The dude copied...deal with it. Why dose this make you made? is he ur uncle or something? Or cause DMC1 was for PS2 and Ninja Gaiden was for xbox? I don't care I ownd both and the guys a duche for talking crap about someone who he copied from to create his best work.

How can you guys say he crossed the line and then you turn around and champion loud mouths like Cliffy B, David Jaffe, Kaz Hirai and all the other people in the games business who spout utter nonsense everytime you give them a mic or a keyboard?

DO those people put down other developers. Seriously its like itagaki has the mind of a 12 year old bully.
