PS3 Bayonetta Isn't Looking So Hot

Before I go feeling bad for owning a PS3, I have some questions.
What kind of setup was the demo running on? The television? the HDMI connections?
The lighting in the room, what was it like?
I'll wait until we actually see the final product before I go declaring which version is better.

Let's mention some cold, hard facts here.
360 games have just plain looked better than PS3 games for quite a while. This was documented again, and again, and again -- with screenshots and plenty of proof. The PS3 had the shittiest resolution scaling for something like what, at least half a year? PS2 games on it also used to look worse than the original system. So even Sony has problems with their own architecture.
The 360 is thought of as having the best ports out of the two. People who own both buy the 360 versions. This is such a regular occurrence that it can't possibly be dismissed as the developers' faults. Given what multiple respected game makers have reported, the only logical conclusion is that Sony's architecture is both underwhelming in hardware features and overwhelming in the difficulty of making games.
Sony has stated that this production difficulty is intentional and artificially inflicted upon the game developers on purpose.

So developing games for the PS3 is indeed a lot more challenging and is simply not very cost effective because of the length involved.
Which is likely the primary reason that the same games for it have sucked total ass in comparison, and will continue to do so.
Maybe you should do a little research next time, Mornelithe.

Or better yet, completely avoid "Super Nanny meets gunplay" and put your money towards a much more deserving title... Like Wet (hahaha, god no, i'm only joking, but still a better game)Mornelithe said:

Yes, it's from the creator of Devil May Cry, but I can guarantee ish not gunna to be good.
Despite the fact that my 2nd!!! 360 is currently blinking those three f**king lights at me im buying a new 360 and not a ps3. I know this is a hardware thread but i hate that sixaxis bs, other than that all games i have played multi-platform are better on 360 GTA4, Fallout3. Even just a few days ago i was on friends PS3 playing fallout to show him some of the side quests and stuff and playing it felt so much less satifying, was getting slower framerates,even the graphics, i know fallout not supposed to be that colorful but it all seemed so much blander than my version. Some PS3 game I have played are pretty sweet but they tend to be the exclusive titles and i prefer choice.
I refuse to pay money for any game with such a stupid sounding name for a character. It's like they aren't even trying anymore.

"We have a game with a busty female killing stuff..."
(from around the room) "Brilliant" "Unique" "Innovative" "imaginative" "No one has ever done that before!"
"But we just don't have a name that conveys it's uniqueness and brilliance."
"we need a female name that sounds badass and lethal."
"Why not just take a weapon and add a syllable that ends in an a sound to it?"
"Brilliant!"
Later...
"Our choices so far are Chainsawah, katananata, Gunslut, or Shurikeena."
"We need something that implies both penetration and a controlled, projectile explosion..."
"How about a Bayonet! It's a knife you attach to the end of a gun!"
"Bayonetta!"
"Oh wow, we're brilliant!"

I agree with that.
Once again, I'm very glad I own a Xbox 360. But still, Bayonetta looks pretty freaking sweet from what I've seen- kind of like Devil May Cry on meth and speed- so I feel sorry for the PS3 owners that'll either get a flawed port of Bayonetta or won't get it at all.
It is possible that there is a more innocent explanation for this. Maybe they are simply doing things in a different order on each version. Each console may have a certain optimum order of doing things.
That may explain why the PS3 version may not look so crash hot at the moment but may be more complete in other areas. Only the developer at this stage knows how far along each version of the game is.
