The PS3 port of Bayonetta was pretty bad anyway

The WiiU version is technically like the one to have in regards to performance right now, isn't it? Outside of the PC one, I mean,

Downloading the heck out of that even though I don't own and may never buy Blaster Master Zero.

It's kinda weird that they allow you to do that, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna miss out on free stuff.

I did it once before to grab another DLC for the same game. It was that genie last time. I download them for free and then immediately delete it. I just want to be able to get it again in the future, should I ever want or have a need.

It has some frame drops bosses compared to on 360 but the Nintendo costumes more than make up for it.

There is also clearly a demo of Master Blaster Zero for anyone on the fence. I agree, it is fun to play. I love how you can leave your vehicle and there's like little rpg zones amongst the platforming. I still haven't bought it though.

Especially if you have any fondness for Blaster Master on NES you owe it to yourself to get it stat. It's pretty much a remake with a ton of QoL changes that makes it feel more like a modern game.

Embarrassing gamer confession: I owned Bayonetta on PS3 and played for like half an hour. I have since seen the light of Platinum games and will buy the hell out of the switch release. MGR was so so good.

I played Bayonetta during the beta phase when it was called Devil May cry.

It wasn't so bad for a ps2 game, maybe someday i will play the sequels.

Bayonetta is better than devil may Cry and I say this as someone who beat the best dmc, 3, on every single difficulty

Bayonetta is probably the best 3D action game ever. The sequel and Metal Gear Rising are close behind it imo.

It's not as good as Bayonetta or MGR but I also really liked Transformers Devastation.

I'm at work so I can't vouch for if it is out or not. However, this is not the Hawaii one, that comes out by Christmas.

This is a port of the pc and 3ds game. It's a bit obnoxious but there are tons of classic game references. Missions that play exactly like the opening scene of Metal Gear, jokes about GTA, nods to Double Dragon etc.

It's pretty fun but sometimes I was like "geezus give it a rest, game."

Apparently the game is also balanced a bit better gameplay wise from the other versions.

Yeah, it scratches the musou itch pretty nicely even if the special moves go on a bit long and the story is pretty inscrutable (it follows a PSP-only dungeon crawler and another which never made it out of Japan).

Oh, I guess Shakedown Hawaii was the one I was interested in. Maybe I'll check out the first one on steam and return it if I don't like it.

On the moon... they don't make Neo Kobe Pizza.

Why would I need to save musou energy for games that I've already played???

Fire Emblem Warriors will probably be good if it's another case of TK just smashing together mechanics from other Musous that worked like Hyrule was, so even with the narrow roster focus on base version it'll probably be fun. Don't think I like the heavy DLC slant that Hyrule brought to Musou, given that I much prefer full expansions ala Xtreme Warriors with new campaigns plus a handful of new guys rather than season passes but whatever Ike's :10bux:

I really like dragon quest heroes but it's probably the biggest diversion from most musou games out there. Really good but it scratches a different itch
