PhantomPhantasmaraneae is a bossfight.

I wonder how closely it will resemble the DMC 1 boss. tongue

Hopefully not at all, not everything needs to be a freakin Call-Back.

Between this and Devil's 3rd wii-U seems like it's stepping up its game...let's hope all this hype delivers in the end.

I'm hopping the Bayonetta 1 port matches the performance of the 360 version.

[up][up]I was joking.

It would be stupid to design the bosses with the same moveset because Bayonetta controls much more fluidly and has way more options than DMC 1 Dante.

[up]The site says they're aiming for 60FPS.

Well it would make sense for it to have callbacks to its old moveset, even if they would be remixed heavily to fit the game.

I am liking the theme too. The singer sounds so familiar.

The song is so Bayonetta, but the lack of Engrish makes it somehow less so...[lol] And the singer being so young even more less so.

...more less so. Makes total sense.

I really hope Bayonetta gets another music video.

What if Phantom's move set initially copied his first game move set, just as a tribute, before he realises it's not working and switches to an entirely new one.

Also, half expecting Nelo Angelo Jeanne to show up. (Bianco Diabolo?)

I've been listening to the song on loop on the website now for maybe an hour. It's really good at energizing me into reading all of Nintendo's other E3 news.

...I still have to play through my DMC collection. I got stuck on the warping dark knight guy.

Multiplayer info was stealth-announced through Nintendo's E3 website. Here's the scoop:

Team up with a friend in Tag Climax, a two-player online co-op mode. In online quick matches, you can wager halos, the in-game currency that you earn by defeating enemies. You receive a large sum back if you can prove you're a better fighter than your partner. Halos can then be traded in a story mode shop to unlock new techniques, buy accessories and pick up alternate weapon variations.

[up][up]Nelo Angelo eh? The key is to play more defensively. Don't attack him off the bat, wait for him to attack, and then retaliate when his combo is done. He's also open during his fireballs, but it's also best to dodge, then attack.

That was amazing!!!grin

Though...well I'm not sure about the aerial fights, they just don't look as tight as ground fighting, seems a bit awkard. The summon fighting was neat but sensory overload isn't a good thing and could possibly obstruct the action...the madame butterfly summon in full was neat the little boxing minigame looked pretty gimmicky. Not sure how I feel about cornrow kid yet, his VA is ehhhh. Also a small nitpick, but Bayo's lines midbattle aren't as good? A few sound kind of corny lol. I hope her sexuality isn't played down too much.

Bayonetta has always sounded corny.

That's part of the charm.

Well that's just friggen' awesome. This went from "buy once the price drops a little" to "preorder at next paycheck".
So glad the first game is included. That complaint about not being able to play the first on Nintendo consoles is now moot.

Also, heh. Flock off feather face. Nice.

More Bayo 2 on Nintendo Treehouse.

EDIT: Everything about this Sage fight is pure awesome. [tup]

Indeed, it does look awesome.

So in this game, you are now fighting demons in addition to the angels it seems. I guess that Bayonetta's pact ran out, and now the residents of Inferno are here to claim her soul or something. Either that, or the Lumen Sage is doing this, but that's a wild guess.

Wonder if the Sage will become an ally for the final fight?
