Okay, I watch too much MMA.
I was more interested in her suplex than her assets.
I'm going to go hide in the corner now.

As someone has mentioned, Enzo (the little annoying Italian shit) basically never appears at all after this scene.

Which makes his overbearing presence in it even worse!

my brain is spinning from all the referances. I started to loose track and then the cutscene kept getting more and more rediculous. good episode but I feel like I needed to watch it at half speed to get everything.

Are the Japanese just completely incapable of making believable western characters and cutscenes that doesn't look like a puppetshow, or am i just being picky?

"He's called Robotnik" I thought this too :p
instruments of God "mostly brass sections" just look at some of the angel's weapons to understand
"That's where the good part starts" YES IT IS :D it's where the witch gets some guns :)

That made no sense and any respect I had for this game (there was little to begin with) is now totally gone.

I loved the robotnik part :p

Le Magnifique Masterpiece! This game looks fun and zany all the way through, and the touch of G&P to it adds to the magic.

And for all you confused ones out there, not every game has to have a plot to it. Want plot? Read a book.

"Are we allowed to keep watching this?"

That's exactly what I was thinking, the entire time I played that game I could picture my parents coming in and throwing a fit.

So... if the object of Unskippable is to make fun of cutscenes that take themselves too seriously (or at all seriously), as Graham has mentioned before, how come it works so well with games like Bayonetta, which are so incredibly over-the-top and satirical?

Wow, Yahtzee really wasn't kidding when he made the 'poledancing-giraffe-in-catsuit' analogy.

Maybe it's just me, but I think Unskippable would be a lot better without those two guys talking over the video
Maybe it's just me, but I think that you don't get the point of this series.

The plot makes no sense whatsoever. You can try and understand it but I guarantee you won't understand a whole lot even after your first play though. That being said, the game is batshit insane (in a good way) and manages to have one of the most fascinating sexualized characters in a long time. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/columns/on-the-ball/7053-On-The-Ball-Pimping-Bayonetta] The nonsense could even be a complement to the final game. Bayonetta is, without a doubt, the game the developers wanted to make. They made no compromises and the final product has an overwhelming sense of creativity. Anyone who thinks that the Japanese are losing that key trait needs to go play Bayonetta.

You are seriously missing out if you don't play this game due to the copious use of cheesecake, because its manages to have some genuinely funny moments and its an absolute blast to play.

I wasn't sure you guys had it in you to do this Graham & Paul, but damn it all, ya pulled it off. You done me proud. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/6.169432-On-The-Ball-Pimping-Bayonetta?page=2]


One more thing, I'll try and explain some of it, though I'll probably crash and burn:

Bayonetta was dressed as a nun to lure the angels out to collect "Eggman" and bring him to heaven. Don't ask who Eggman is, he has no real importance to the main plot. She travels into Purgatorio, which is where most of the game takes place. That is why Enzo disappears, he remains in the human world. Once the angels take the bait, Bayonetta beats the living snot out of them, for pretty much one reason-she likes her job of tucking them in(so to speak).

Rodin shows up to provide Bayonetta with guns which happens after the video ends, but the cutscene continues. Rodin is a demon blacksmith who provides Bayonetta with weapons throughout the game and follows the typical hard-ass character traits. After the cutscene ends, the game initiates the tutorial and the first real level begins.
