  • Xbox, though I could turn on my PS3 to find out I'd imagine its both. Surely the Internet will answer our question...

    QUEUED Dubs I love u
  • Really not sure about this after playing through a couple of times.Its very Platinum but the nature of the combat doesn't really do it for me. I'm more a shooter than a swordsman so it leaves me a little empty. But I'd imagine for those that enjoy such combat they'll love it.
  • Damn it I wish they'd hurry up and confirm the PC version already.

    Quite seriously Sony have picked a bad time to put the store in maintenance for me.

    No idea, I lost track of Sony's 'routine' about a year ago. It seems like a smegging joke though now.

  • Hmm, that was short. Yeah, I didn't need to play this to know it's a day one, but it didn't dissuade me that's for sure. I died 4 times. Seems like it's gonna take a lot of getting used to, but that's what Platinum are all about. As for a PC version, I wouldn't count on it. They've said they want to start making PC games but they haven't done one yet.

    Yeah. Combat is weird, would like a move list to see exactly how some of it works. But oh shit, no fucking blocking! That is a new sensation. Died four times on that dog, twice on the Geckos before it. Gonna give it another go, because parrying makes you feel like a total boss.

  • Yes, you can only parry. Sometimes you need to parry multiple attacks. Enemies do not give a shit if you are not looking at them, so parrying is 360 too, if you press the stick in the right direction. Oh, you can also cut people into 100 pieces.

    More I hear the more I cum. I've avoided much of the media around this. Time to unplug my PS3 and plug in the BBC's PS3 for some other P* adventure.

  • I predict it will be DIFFICULT.
  • No block is a strange one. Against the dog it seems more luck than anything missing some of its attacks.

    I wouldn't play a P* game that doesn't result in self-doubt.

    Love feeling boss like.

    It's all timing, but the timing is quite strict. I managed to block it's pounce & pin, it's chainsaw whip combo, the dash, and get up spike that it chucks at you as it goes out of vulnerable mode in one fraught exchange. Crazy times.

    From the tiny bit I've played, I think it is harder than Bayonetta or Vanquish. Both of those gave you the slow time mechanic and a judicious dodge with which to avoid enemies whereas this appears to keep you in the combat, the only dodge being a kind of leapfrog maneuver that needs a normal sized enemy to be near.

    Maybe the dodge will be an unlockable. I kind of hope there is one, I'm not much of a parry type, never did it in Dark Souls either. It's a lot easier in this than most games though.

  • I get the feeling it'll end up being a bit rhythmic, especially against bosses and tougher enemies. You can always hold LT and ninja run away though, wooosh!

    How's the soundtrack in the demo?

    Vanquish was surprisingly forgettable in that area so i'm hoping a return to Bayonetta level tunes.

    I'm kind of hoping it isn't more than I am it is. Having not had a go, I might swing though.

    Nothing of note except for silly jrock during the boss fight. Tonally out the window. Too busy chopping things up.
