for those of you who plan on buying Darksiders tomorrow what are you expecting from the game, and how do you think it will hold up compared to Beyonetta?

I finished Bayonetta last night. It was nothing but a so-so game with a sexy main character. It's too short too. Finished it on Easy mode in less than 10 hours. Haven't been much into Darksiders yet but from what I've seen so far, its story is way better and deeper than Bayonetta's and the graphics are really really nice. Can't say much about the controls since I haven't unlocked many moves and combos yet (played for around 20 mins just to test). But it seems smooth enough.

People are already streaming the game LIVE in some channels. Looks pretty good, nice puzzles, start off really simple and gets better more into the game. It's more Zelda-ish game, i'm definitly going to get. Bayonetta still better for the game style, wich is totally different from Darksiders, it's pure DMC content (yes its the same director), the battles are incredible smooth and well paced.

I didn't like it so I just wanted to finish it fast. It sucks compared to DMC, in my opinion due to the stupid story/characters. And Darksiders looks way better than Bayonetta in my eyes. Maybe it's my TV xD

How will it hold up to Bayonetta? Well, first off I don't understand the comparison as they are drastically different, but whatever. Personally, I think Darksiders looks like AAA material and Bayonetta looks like a mediocre over-the-top action game with a main character that looks like she was made by a horny 14-year old nerd. So, in short, I think Bayonetta will have the hard time. Of course, critics seems to disagree.

They're being compared because they're both highly rated games that are being released on the same day, and most people can't afford to spend $120 on games in one day.

I'll be playing both, probably Darksiders first, considering DMC4 wasn't that long and wasn't particularly replayable, so Bayonetta will be a renter/bargain-bin purchase eventually.

I played bayonetta, I'm sure it doesn't require 100% button mashing, but thats all I Was doing I had no idea even where my character was, I found it really messy and story seemed a bit poor, So I'd have to go with dark siders, but then again I haven't tried dark siders but the gameplay footage of darksiders looked pretty nice.

Still very different games, the fact that they have the same release date really means nothing. Bayonetta is in the same vein as DMC, while Darksiders is more of a mixture of God of War and Zelda.
