And hour in: I rode Cerberus and burned a man alive in the pits of Hell so I could steal his bow and use it to make minotaurs blow up and hack off Gorgon heads.
An hour and a half in: I hacked off Hades' left tit and stomped on it as it tried to crawl back to him. Then I hung him by his own chains and bashed his face against the roof of the underworld. Then I smashed his face against the rock and ate his soul and watched him get carried away on the River Styx.
This game is yes, yes, a thousand times yes.
Eagerly awaiting my copy from Gamefly, should be here tomorrow.

Get the PS3 remake/anthology or whatever. The gameplay is just as awesome but the graphics are beefed up a lot.
As for myself, I'm keeping God of War III for a special week this summer. In the course of that week, I plan on beating:
-Dante's Inferno
-Darksiders
-Devil May Cry IV
-Bayonetta
-God of War III
Week long action overdose to cater to the testosterone I don't have.

Be warned: Bayonetta has the most amazingly stupid storyline you have ever seen. The fightanz, however, is such epic fun that it more than makes up for the angsty stupidity. The delicious cheesecake doesn't hurt either.

More to the point: all those games have pretty stupid storylines.
GoW3 is the best out of all of them, if only because it's straightforward, but it's still one dude whose goal is to kill everyone.

Bayonetta's is just noticeably worse than anything else I've seen save for Sword of Truth. Yeah, action games tend to be focused on violence rather than story but Bayonetta's mocks that idea.

BAYONNETA WAS PARODY
SATIRE
A FARCE
Sadly I will be putting it off till after I've finished FFXIII. It was here first and I do not want ANY distractions from the multiple metric fucktons of genocide and destruction Kratos will be serving up.
The guys at the GameStop I had mine reserved at asked me to wear a Kratos mask when I came to midnight release to pick it up... Can't go too wrong with a freebie like that.

You sure? Some dev interviews I read had them seeming pretty serious about her and the character...

If you just like to smash and kill things, probably not. If you want to know what the heck is going on in the story, then yes. Its a pretty big leap in the story if you go from Kratos sitting in Olympus as the new God of War to him leading an army of titans in an assault on Olympus. If you just want to read what happens without playing the game, the wiki for GoW2 gives you the whole plot of the game.
Abridged Version in Spoilers:
The gods get angry with Kratos for leading his Spartan followers to attack other cities beholden to other gods. Zeus steals his power and kills Kratos. Kratos escapes the Underworld and goes on a journey toward the location of the Loom of Time and the Three Sisters of Fate. He kills everything in his way, uses the Loom of Time and goes back to when Zeus stole his power and attacks the leader of the gods. Kratos badly injures Zeus before Athena steps in to try and stop Kratos from killing him. It is revealed that Zeus is actually Kratos' father and he killed Kratos to break the cycle of son killing father amongst the gods. Kratos kills Athena as Zeus escapes and rallies the other gods. Kratos goes back to the Loom of Time and goes back to the time when the gods fought and defeated the Titans. Kratos rallies the titans and brings them forward in time to fight a second war against the gods. This is were the second game ends and the third picks up.

It IS 100% serious, it's just made by people who think Japanese shonen manga aren't extreme enough.
if you can play 5 seconds of Bayonetta without thinking that it's a parody I just don't know what to say
edit: even if the creators did take it 100% seriously (which I doubt), the end product is so similar to a well-crafted but straight-faced parody that it can be treated as such without any effort Kegwen fucked around with this message on 03-17-2010 at 06:48 PM.
I haven't even played it yet.

Big tits, glasses, a perfect ass, and ridiculously fun combat. It's completely madcap, wall-running, boot-gunning, crazy shit salted with cheesecaking "snapshot" poses when you do certain techniques. Absolutely brilliant game, I just hate the stupid, angsty story; even if it is satire, it's still annoying.
