Bayonetta

The near perfect combat mechanics and engaging storyline work wonders to suppress any of the negatives that arise in the game. A true gamers game Bayonetta mixes a lot of what makes video games good now and from yesteryear, and does it in splendid stylish fashion.

Although Bayonetta has more than a few similarities to Devil May Cry, I wholeheartedly believe that this game is a must-play.

After almost a decade Bayonetta is starting to show her age, but that doesn’t stop this hyperactive melee/shooter action mashup from being one of the most rewarding and memorable cult hits of the previous generation.
