HERONESS IS BACK BABY!!!
http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=jEBf12lu5WI
After DMC3, VJ and God Hand I am totally this genre's bitch and NOBODY does it properly but these wonderful bredders!
I've needed a new fix for so long - I'm putting Platinum Games in my will.

New No More Heroes is coming too...

When's 'Wii Carlton' coming out?
How on Earth did you just write that without CAPITALS, exclaimation marks and bad spelling?
It should read;
"OMFG nO mOAR hEROS IS COMMING TO!!11!1"
________________________________
Gnnng,
Not enough hours in the day. I need a clone to send to work so that I can get on with the more important things.
MadWorld, NMH2 and Bayonetta are looking sweet. Largely I'm going to have to sit these out and watch the mini detonations from peeps heads exploding from afar
If Bayonetta brings it with a deep fighting system and fair cues from EVERY enemy I'll devote some serious time to it above all else, if its whack though I shall hunt down Saurian and teef his stash!
______________________________________________________________________________
When's 'Wii Carlton' coming out?
They want to hurry up with some sort of beta...
Cues are SO fucking important yet it's the one thing gamers on the whole can't seem to grasp.
I've massively got back into DMC3 and am blowing up all over again about how perfect the system is. Due to the clear cues you can absolutely devastate the game once you tune into them.
Like you know that stage (the one where you get Artemis) when you go into that "Essense of Fighting" room and face a whole army? I was in there the other night in DMD mode and managed the whole fucking thing without so much as a scratch on Dante after not having played the game for months. Once I tuned into the sound there was NO WAY I was getting hit, even when it's a combination of those red reapers and the white ones which teleport - I was parrying everything without even having to think about timing.
This is what's missing from DMC4 and why the game is a heaving pile of testicles. How the hell are you meant to judge 4 frame windows from attacks coming at you from all angles?
S O U N D !

We shall have to wait and see if them Platinum brers remember to include them then...
I've been watching that trailer a fair bit now
Seems like she gets naked as her hair is used to create special attacks >_< The bit when she is on her hands using her feet cannons looks amazing, also really digging the style, especially all the DMC magic ring things...

When's 'Wii Carlton' coming out?
Just realised, this is Vanessa from P.N.03 in DMC. . .I'm so hard right now.
______________________________________________________________________________
When's 'Wii Carlton' coming out?
We think alike!!!
I was going on about this to a friend yesterday about how she's blatantly Vanessa - it's the same chick, just playing a different role.
________________________________
There is a move in the vid where she kicks her leg up in the air and it hit me..also she looks like her!XD
______________________________________________________________________________
When's 'Wii Carlton' coming out?
Ofcourse! We all blatantly know that Vanessa is naturally slutty, she was just hol'ing it down in PN03. It's gonna be great fun playing a character who's totally, 100%, unashamedly SLUTTY!
LOVE IT - I knew they couldn't let Vanessa die, she's too savoury.

I really wanted to get Bayonetta’s backside perfect. I guess I am into that sort of thing…
http://platinumgames.com/2009/04/24/modeling-bayonetta/
I didn't realise that her clothes are essentially made of her own hair (head hair I assume). The bigger attacks result in more loss of hair control and more nudity. Saur we will be needing Youtube vids of your best runs. As if he needs any more incentives to max out her attack potential
--I cannot fucking wait for Bayonetta! Hopefully I will be "working" with this one soon. I've been trying to pimp myself to Platinum for a while now, I want to provide content for that blog for starters - what they've done so far reads like an American teenager's forum post.

Hope you get the gig. I like the way you have to hold your tongue and then when the game is released there's this almighty outpouring on the forums like you have the best (or the worst) news bottled up inside, bursting to get out. Makes for some really memorable posts.
, must be frustrating for you I guess.
It funny - cos like you say I don't say a damn word! I'll be playing a game up to 5 months before release all the while people are emailing me trailers and links to previews of the said game, I feel like such a shit for playing dumb but I have to.

...that's because it's written by American teenagers ;_;
A new trailer is up! (use the HQ option if possible)

WOW!
Cannot. Fucking. Wait.
Some raw play footage here;

Audio attack cues: check
Looks like they kept the wicked 2-way weapon switch from DMC3 aswell, I fucking HATED having all weapons in the cycle at once.
Dear lord (feel free to insert your own deity here) - check this out - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/24862
Now take a look at this boss - http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/24862
To my wife's eternal disappointment, it would appear that size is everything. This is looking gooood....
I hate working here, all the good stuff is blocked
The internet just become one huge cock tease!
XD
It's great working here - I AM The Internets!

Don't worry about it dude, you're only missing out on the BEST THING EVAR!!111one
LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE DOOOOOOONE!!!!!!!!!!
That looks incredible. I really don't want to see anymore vids now until I get to play it for myself. Hopefully there will be more Epic Win in the full game.

Some nice concept art and Scarborough Fair pistol awesomeness!1

WANT!!!!1
Platinum are posting up little system vids - notice how the evade does not break/reset the combo chain? Naughty!
Sweet lord, those heel guns are beautiful.
"Bayonetta is an extremely important new IP for SEGA and adds a new
level of depth to our growing portfolio. As a result of market analysis we
have taken a Publishing decision that January 2010 is the optimum release
time in the Western Markets to maximize this exciting new title's
potential," said Mike Hayes, President and COO for SEGA West.
Thank you Sega.....oh thank you so very fucking much.
I'll just import the PS3 Japanese version on the 29th October kthxbai.
Still not as bad as the whole Excitebots debacle.
But, y'know, its up there.
I've been quite deliberately avoiding Bayonetta stuff, as I saw 2 seconds of one vid which appeared to be a fight against an entire castle, not the inhabitants mind you, but the ACTUAL CASTLE... that I took a step back, and decided that non-interactive 2D imagery wasn't good enough to articulate the kind of, "This is what computer games are, and always should have been about type of imagination vs gameplay vs human preconceptions"...
Like y'know, in Mario Galaxy, you can walk upside down right... and that's seen as the great breakthrough... but why can't you walk upside down and inside out?
It just bugs me, that computer games as a medium play it safe 99.999% of the time, when the scope and imagination and concepts available are limitless.
Hey ho.
Things, when they fall, don't always have to fall down.
Amen to that!
How kind of Sega to release this on my birthday - thats a loooooooooooooooong way off though
You've got a PS3 haven't you? Just get the Japanese version, it's 100% English language/text anyway.
Fuck knows what I'll be doing January...that's so far off my mind can't comprehend it. It's like in astromony when they describe the distance to other galaxies....it's just numbers.
Cool 100% English. I'm up for an import then. I can arse about with it for a bit and then pick up a strategy guide later when it's released over here. I'm hoping there will be a decent guide produced
Proper can't wait for this to come out - want to get my YouTube account going again and rinse this game like God Hand! XD
Have to vent more frustration at Sega -
What fucking planet are these fuckwits on? First they delay the western release which fucks up everything, then in their wisdom they decide to release the Japanese version on the same day as Tekken 6!
I swear they are doing everything in their power to ensure this game does not achieve the success it should have, everything Sega does seems to be counter-productive as if they are doing it on purpose! Just like with MadWorld they are going fail miserably in sales, I can see it happening. Why does Platinum's output have to rely on a publisher as braindead as Sega? There's no justice in the world T_T
Boxart is mint though;
I'm liking the Boxart a lot! Saw some pics from ComiCon of enemies and weapons - the snake weapon looks interesting.

Flickr concept design updated = rad!
The awesomeness cannot be contained!
Heroness is back?
ATOMIC FIRE BLADE
Heroness IS back - even for the most hopeless people out there;
The game practically plays itself in Very Easy Mode. A true auto-pilot, even QTEs are impossible to fail.
Hopefully this will stop the idiots bitching about difficulty...
Just translated that kana, "God of War mode"
If there is a super pleb mode, they need to do some marketing on it... extreme, or urban mode.
An added benefit - IGN should be able to post a complete review this time.
I love this chick - she is such a HO! (and I mean that in a good way)
Did you spot this story about the PS3 version being a bit flaky?
http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3175838
Does sound dubious.
It does...
I still haven't seen the PS3 version running either.
