Bayonetta. New Lara Croft?

[IamQ]

Someone told me about Bayonetta and I saw this trailer of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ad9f7DvbZM

Is it me, or does this look like the combat of devil may cry combined with the fanservice of Lara Croft?

I saw the trailer.
I wonder how they plan on selling this game.

What is it with people and originality?, yeah its you.

next thing you know someone will be saying steven spielberg totally ripped off Arthur C Doyles Lost World.

I would say it looks like DMC the female version, but thats just me. Also its made by sega soo...not holding my breathe for this one.

its made by the guy who made DMC.

If you mean Lara Croft, I hope you mean a heroine which defined a generation of a particular video game genre. Or you mean a pathetic has-been cash cow that's needs to drink some paint and retard herself to death.

I'm hoping it'll be the first.

 

[bodyklok]

I always thought it bears more resemblance to Devil May Cry.

 

[AmrasCalmacil]

I completely lost interest upon noticing that the game was about a woman in improbable black leather, spouting one lines and making noises during combat that would embarass a tennis player.

 

[DM.]

Looks more like a cross between NiGHTS and Devil May Cry imho.

The Nights bit might be due to the music.

 

[Skeleon]

Wow, what a *****.
I was so rooting for the angels to kill her.
In Yahtzee's words: A braindead badass action girl.
But with the unlikability of X-Blades' protagonist mixed in for an even stronger effect.

Probably on the fact that she gets more naked the more outrageous your combo (or megaton) counter is. That alone should get enough teens interesting in spending a few hours drooling at their TVs.

Not my sort of game tbh, but to each his own. Certainly looks action-packed enough.
the fact that she can quad-wield bazookas probably attracts interest as well. =)

Oh, didnt know that. Thank you, now i will definitely pass on this game.

I dont blame you, Devil May Cry is pretty poor.

oh hark at me, i'm edgy and contreverussual.

 

[GodsOneMistake]

Are gamers really that Horney that every single videogame women has to be... Well like this for example


EDIT: Holy shit, this game is released on my birthday

justcause 2 trailer- that is more lara croft then she is
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owNtj2iREcw&feature=fvw

the only similarities t her and lara croft is shes a woman in a game and she has guns

 

[Xyphon]

Ok wow.... the person who's developing this must be VERY, VERY, VEEEEERY desperate for game sales. I can tell just by all of the crotch shots and the nudity. -____-"

Another game that's going to ruin our reputation even more.

No, you're just right. DMC was mediocre at best.
And this just looks like DMC for perverts. I mean, what do they have against subtlety? It looks more like a parody of itself than anything else.

The simularities I ment is that Lara Croft is a character that's only survived so long because of the atrocius ammounts of fanservice in her games, and this game seems to follow that pattern and take it to the next level (She seems to loose more and more clothing for each magic spells she uses).

Especially when they're using slowmotion crotch shots.
