The 360 version is objectively superior and the only online mode is leaderboards afaik.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #544 on:** December 21, 2009, 12:37:16 PM »

Is the 360 demo up in the US or is it PS3 only? I'm just worried about the controller.

archie4208 · « **Reply #545 on:** December 21, 2009, 12:40:12 PM »

360 demo is up, and it controls fine with that system's controller.

Third · « **Reply #546 on:** December 21, 2009, 12:40:38 PM »

After finishing the X360 version, I downloaded the Ps3 demo. Just to see if people are right over the graphical/performance differences between both versions.

Seems they are right. Ps3 demo ran and looked like shit compared to the X360 version.

I know it controls fine but my personal preference is a PS3 controller, that's what I meant. I wanted to see if I could handle the controller.

I think it's inaccurate...been tricked many times by it. like 10 minutes ago, for example. If I don't get the "order is ready" email in an hour, I'll cancel it.

The site shows my Best Buy has it in stock as well... they also have Final Fatasy XIII, Splinter Cell Conviction and Lost Planet 2. I'm pretty sure that's just showing it's available for preorder at those store. They might still have it anyway though, who knows.

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #565 on:** December 21, 2009, 10:36:34 PM »

just picked up bayonetta, FFXIII, Splinter Cell: Conviction at my local best buy. not sure what to play first. passed on Lost Planet 2 and pissed on copies of every PS3 exclusive coming out next year.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #566 on:** December 21, 2009, 11:08:16 PM »

I picked up SC:C too, this game is shit, no wonder it's 360 exclusive, it can't even run past 20fps on that inferior hardware.

For a second there I believed you about Lost Planet 2 and SC: C...especially since Bestbuy.com shows them "in stock" at their stores.

But that also means there's no telling which of these BBs might actually have Bayonetta. $:-\$

That's not even the reason usually given. The 360 pad isn't even oversized like the original Xbox controllers were. Its problem is its dpad, but that doesn't matter for Bayonetta. This is a game where one version is clearly superior to the other. You cannot argue otherwise. These guys with both systems whining and bitching over the PS3 version are distinguished mentally-challenged. Buy it for the 360, love the shit out of it, and forget about the PS3 fuck-up. Or buy the inferior version, deal with the shittier frame rate and ugly graphics. Just shut the fuck up about it already. That GAF thread is so tired and stupid I haven't bothered reading it for a week. Keeps going in circles.

Yeah, that's not arguing, it's an emotional appeal; at which point, it becomes a fallacy. Or in GAF's case, a phallacy.

So I finished the game on normal. Regarding some of the achievements, can I get them on easy and still have them count. There's a few that seem like they'd be kind of a pain in the ass on normal but would probably be fairly easy to do on easy.

One of the things I haven't been able to do is find all the umbran tears of blood...I've only spotted about 19 crows throughout the whole game. The other 30 or so must be damn well hidden.

I only own my 360 because of the absurb amount of money i've put in on Rock Band and Guitar Hero DLC on the pos. So I keep mine around for music games, but it's time might be getting near anyways because I don't want to pay $100 for a fucking bigger hard drive because Microsoft wants to make a penny off of everyone. Nearly $2 a gig, go fuck yourself.
