Like, crazy slowdown and lag. Oh cool, it's not just me then. There's a lot of slowdown in this port, a lot more than the original but not as bad as the PS3 port. I get a fair bit of input lag though.

I'm losing cables left and right, here. By chance are there any good third-party accessories for charging the gamepad, remote and pro controller off one power plug?

It looks like Bayo 2 was built from the ground up, and runs pretty perfectly (and doesn't look like a game from 2008!) Bayo 1 just seems like a rough-around-the-edges port. Whatever, it was free, it just doesn't stand up to Bayo 2, performance-wise, the way I was hoping it would. Someone else mentioned input lag as well -- I felt it, too. Missed probably 90% of my dodges; went to Bayo 2, and made 90% of my dodges. vvvvvvvv- Could be, but it doesn't feel like it to me. It's not that "at or near 60FPS slowdown" effect, it's that stuttery, can't handle all these polygons and lovely code slowdown effect. enojy fucked around with this message at 01:44 on Oct 25, 2014 |

So is Normal mode on Bayonetta 1 supposed to be ball-bustingly hard and I should just swallow my pride and kick it down to Easy? It does feel really hard to time my dodges, I only seem to actually activate Witch Time half the time.

It's a Platinum game so Normal is gonna be tougher than you're probably used to seeing on Normal. Stick with it though, the best part of these games is getting good at them. E: Learn to witch time, that's pretty much all that matters WRT making it through the level without dying.

I beat Mario 3D world last night, and started on the Star level. Goddamn this game is oozing charm. I'm sad I only have 8 or so more levels left. Now I'm waiting on Bayo 2 to come in. I've been waiting for it since I saw the promo trailer 2-3 years ago. I'm so stoked.

Don't worry, those last handful of levels ramp the difficulty up, and the last two proper levels will easily tide you over until Bayonetta 2 arrives. Just exercise some restraint and don't break anything if you want to be able to play it. I think you have to go back and get all of the stars to unlock those two. It's worth it. enojy fucked around with this message at 02:43 on Oct 25, 2014 |

I still haven't unlocked them. I can't really find it in me to spend the hour or so it would take to get the last of the flagpoles. I already re-did the game to get all the green stars. Maybe I'll try playing on just the gamepad while I watch a stream or something. E: Can Nintendo stop this?

Clearing each stage with all 5 characters is only for unlocking the final stamp and more stars on your save file. The final levels are accessible by collecting all green stars and having at least one character per stage reach the top of the flagpole.

Also it doesn't take nearly as long to beat a stage when you don't need to get the stars. If you're missing golden flag poles anywhere just redo the levels with Peach in the cat suit for a pretty much automatic golden flag and you'll have it done in no time.

Yeah the flagpoles are super easy and take like zero time, getting everything else but stopping there is weird

My favorite part is where there are two sets of them back to back in an L shaped hallway that screws with your camera. I'm getting stone awards constantly even though I'm getting silvers and golds on almost everything. I might go back and not die on them later, but I want to beat this game then move on to the second one.

I also love how Hard mode immediately shows you how real that poo poo is by throwing a Grace and Glory into the opening fight. It's just a big red flag telling you to not touch that mode until you're good and ready.

I noticed a spike in difficulty already. It's quite nice. I have a large back catalogue to play if it starts to get me angry. The last time I threw a controller was during Ninja Gaiden II, or I Wanna Be the Guy. I can't remember which, both pissed me off.

Hard mode isn't just more health and damage for the baddies, it's different enemy layouts and usually harder AI as well.

Sometimes I dispatch them perfectly, but just getting caught in one or two of their combos spells doom. And yeah, the first time the game drops a second set on you is like a mean joke.

It's just a big red flag telling you to not touch that mode until you're good and ready. You should see what it does in Vanquish. That Level 1-3 fight (the one in the demo culminating in the first Argus fight) goes from being a squad to a veritable battalion (with big-rear end dropships delivering a few dozen more mid-fight) made up of a bunch of Gorgie types you're not meant to encounter until mid/late-game. I think there's even a few of the blue Gorgie-USG's, which you don't normally see till like late Chapter 4.

I don't really think of Uncharted as a cover shooter. Like yeah it has cover but it's not really like Gears of War or the 11 billion games that tried to rip it off, which is what Vanquish is closer to.

It's all set on a single big-rear end space colony, but yes there's a wide variety of terrain types over the course of the game. It's not all the same corridor pieces two hundred times.
