It's only the first week of 2010 and we already have a game better than pretty much everything I played last year. Bayonetta isn't perfect and doesn't really break new ground but what it does, it does extremely well. If you like action games then it's a must buy. Not quite sure it's deserving of Edge's 10/10 mind but that probably says more about the quality of Edge these days than it does about the game.
In any case it's good to see Sega Europe have got really behind this game with their marketing. I think their campaign, including a launch trailer featuring Scream's Lets Get Ravey remix of La Roux's In For The Kill (below), is probably the best marketing I've seen them do in years.
*sigh* I miss Sega's glory days.
Just remember that if you have a choice go for the Xbox360 version. This was the original development platform with the PS3 version being a port by another internal Sega team. Unfortunately the differences show.
