Wow. So Ign is saying Bayonetta>GOW3. And Gamespot is saying Bayonetta=GOw3!

Doesn't surprise me.

Bayonetta has gone a significant step in action games. GoW 3 may have the upper hand on story, but game play wise, it will more or less be the same.

They're both fantastic games.

Lol we have to see. People say Bayo has more moves when gow 3 hasent come out yet!.

Bayonetta combat > GOW3

GOW story+QTE > Bayonetta.

and you should play the game first before judging anything about it, the demo if not representative of its quality.

Also, I don't care about anything IGNorance has to say about this.

i can see that. i dont know why gamersare so excited about gow 3.GrannyGoat

Bayo has faster paced combat this doesnt mean its better it just means its faster and less grounded.

Gow has better visuals,puzzles, voice acting, story and characters.

Bayo is a good game but extremely shallow and forgettable... when you judge a game you judge all the aspects I mentioned. Gow hits all the above points and floors while doing it.

Bayonetta's combat is more refined than GoW's combat, but that doesn't mean GoW's combat is bad.

If you have actually tried "button mashing" with both games, you would notice how they both react differently. If you button mash in Bayonetta, you would look insane. You would go from the wall to the sky to the floor and all around the area without landing a single hit on an enemy. If you buttom mash in GoW, you would rarely pull off some of the stronger moves, but you would do some small/decent damage. I'm not trying to bash GoW in any way.

Bayonetta is about style and God of War is about brutality. Maybe those standards may determine the "opinion" of a review site.

Bayonetta is mediocre at best and its combat isnt nearly as satisfying as GOW3's

[QUOTE="mD-"][QUOTE="dreman999"] Trust me. If you played it you would NEVER forget that game. Their is no other action game thats crazier than Bayonetta or has a combat system more over the top. Comparing Bayonetta's combat to GOW is like comparing a Cheetah to a Tortus.dreman999

Meh I don't really care. I just find it amusing to see the hoopla cows are making over GOW3, like it's the second coming. If I had a PS3, sure I'd rent it, and have it beat and returned in a week, and be done with it. I don't buy games like GOW 3 though. Waste of money. Cows can waste their money of GOW3 and Heavy Rain crap if they so choose.

Why do feel like it's only PS fanboys hyping this game? This game is regarded by many gamers to be one of the best action games they've ever played. That's why it's being hyped. That's why it has a 94 avg on metacritic. That's why a GoW Collection for the PS3 exist. Now continue on with your damage control.

[QUOTE="dreman999"][QUOTE="mD-"] Bayonetta is more combo crazy with all of stuff going on, but GoW III is more crazy because of the sheer brutality and just doing straight up mean things...mD-

Just because you fail to see the value in the GoW franchise and/or action games as a whole doesn't mean that you should act all high and mighty and start going all condescending on everyone.

I'm not trying to say you can't be stylish in either. I was actually referring to how some people say they are both "buttom mashers." I've played God mode on GoW I and II, and I loved eating my controller in anger. On Non-Stop ∞ Climax in Bayonetta, the hardest difficulty, witch time is disabled, the enemies are stronger and faster, and the enemy spawns are changed.

Yet at the same time, none of it looked grotesque enough to make my parents want to return it when I was little.

When my parents saw me playing GoW back in 05' (I was 10 at the time) they were extremely skeptical about it and tried to get rid of I without even consulting me.

My God, can everyone stop compairing the two titles. They're both great in different ways, many ofwhichhave beenmentioned repeatedly. Why the hell are we so eager to compare a multiplat with an exclusive, especially when they're only loosely in the same genre?

[QUOTE="dreman999"][QUOTE="mD-"] Lol, I read some review that said mortal combat is like blues clues compared to GoW III in violence. And no I'm not saying a gore makes a game better. They GoWIII does brutality makes the combot very fun and satisfying. Also, watch your spoilers please.mD-

Bayonetta's a good game. So I don't see the problem.

They are just upset the game didn't turn out to be longer than expected and the story wasn't as good as they had hoped it would be. That's why they docked the points. Biased if you ask me. Honeslty, it doesn't really matter because I would've bought it even if the metacritic were at 8.0 - 8.5

Graphics evolve and gore evolves. MK looks like a joke nowadays compared to God of War. I'm not saying nostalgia ain't good but seriously, play in the present, not the past dude. It's like saying Goldeneye is still the best... I can barely stand it's graphics nowadays!

[QUOTE="Ragashahs"]

one complain i find annoying about GOW3 is the fact the the combat really hasn't changed over the series. it hans't changed for a reason becuase the gameplay is simply perfect the way it is.

I love how this has absolutely nothing to do with nostalgia.

You guys seem to completely ignore metacritic (91 on Bayonetta, 94 for GoW III), as well as Game Inforemr (dual 10's for GoW III and a 9 for Bayonetta).

yeah, a game with an overall rating of 94 is equal to to a game with an overall rating of 90.

IGN and Gamespot are the only critics?

Try Metacritic, score aggregator.

Bayonetta on 360- 90

PS3- 86

God of War III- 94

Heh, guess it's considered better by critics....

Who cares what IGN says. Just look at the metacritic and God Of War 3 has a higher score.Whether its better or not is up to the person.

How dare to awesome games be recognized as awesome! One MUST be superior to the other!

Get over it.

The combat in Bayonetta really fresh.

God of War's Epicness is what's keeping it AAA (just barely).

and for me, i don't care too much for hack n slash anyways, so I take epic set pieces over good combat mechanics.

FeedOnATreeFrog

Wow this is interesting. Bayonetta is better than god of war! Guess Bayonetta 2 will be twice as good as god of war! smh

Aboogie5

And GI says GoW3 > Bayonetta :o

That's why it's actually better to play games to form an opinion versus going purely on reviews.

SPYDER0416

Scores don't show the fact that Bayonetta has indeed pushed the envelope for action games as far as combat goes.

I'm not saying one is better than the other (I mean, seriously, there is no right or wrong when it comes to subjectivity), but you have to appreciate that.

Who cares? Both sources claim both games are fantastic(excluding the PS3 version of Bayonetta of course).

lol they gave mw2 graphics a ten? rofl

Aboogie5

After they gave GTAIV a 10 in graphics nothing surprises me.

Its originality is what gives it the edge. If God of war 1+2 never existed and this was the first one than this would have gotten the better score.. maybe

Bayonetta is the cream of the crop. Such a kick ass female character and the most stunning and deep combat system.

God of War is one of those big name franchises that I never understood all the hype over, like Halo or Pokemon. I've played the first 2 and even the one on PSP, and I thought they were all just OKAY. Maybe I'm just a freak, but give me ninjas with my button mashing gonzo action, or don't give me any of it.
