The Actual OST is 5 Discs in length... Quite a bit more content than One Song.verdant monkai said:
It might be worth pointing out that over here in Europe at least, you could find first hand copies of Bayonetta going for ?15 or less a year after launch, so you could give it a try pretty cheap by now if you still want to give it a whirl.GeorgW said:
Now I did not see anyone mention this, but Platinum Games is currently working with Kojima Production, and Kojima himself, on Metal Gear Rising: Revengance, and like him or not (and I do), Kojima is going to make sure, by any means necessary, that the story he has in mind will be delivered!
How this relates to Sega "selving" Bayonetta 2: Sega could easily look at the Bioshock 2 situation where a separate developer made Bioshock 2, and received very little praise. Sega could simply be waiting for Platinum Games to be free to develop Bayonetta 2, or they could even be waiting to see how well Metal Gear Rising is received.
That's my take on the situation.

Of course, I'm used to being disappointed by the actions of Sonic Team, so....business as usual.

This is sort of depressing. The story was reprehensibly stupid, but the ludicrously over the top heroine, and delightfully quick hack and slash action (at higher difficulties, it's almost insanely fast) made the game a lot of fun (it didn't hurt that Sega/Platinum put enough fanservice in to choke a horse - both of the costume removal variety, and the two levels that were obvious Sega references).
It definitely deserves a sequel. Maybe Sega will let the IP loose. I'd love to see what they do under another umbrella (with more titles to reference...)

There are no words to describe my anger and disappointment in that. Bayonetta is one of my top 3 games I've ever played and i was uber excited for the sequel. I did have my doubts there actually would be a second game, but that's only because of the whole fighting the creator of the universe thing.
Conspiracy theories usually feature nobody conspiring. For example, you have to take articles you've posted as anti-video games when the quotes really aren't. I had friends try and parse the quotes for any real anti-video game sentiment and there is none. You're assembling a litany of quotes which only work if there's some double-secret hidden meaning.Therumancer said:
If they feature nobody conspiring then they are by definition not conspiricy theories, despite the general desire of people to want to slap that label onto just about anything they don't like to discredit it by negative association.Zachary Amaranth said:
As far as the articles I posted, and there are plenty more in a similar vein, they speak for themselves. If you and your friends want to try and spin them in your own minds in a way that doesn't have the Obama administration taking an anti-video game position, then nothing your shown is going to matter because you will not accept it by definition. Hillary was running point on Hot Coffee, and Obama has come out as using video games as a scapegoat for youth issues, there really isn't any way around that, what they've done, and what their message is, no matter how you want to try and "parse" or spin it.
Of course I don't expect much said in message board to really influance the love the general population of this sit has for the left wing and current administration. I just bring things like this up when I feel it has some relevency. In this case I do not think SEGA agrees with you, and in forecasting the market is deciding to play it unusually safe with their content given the odds being on Obama's administration entering a second term.
