I did not take the "over-the-top action game" description very seriously but oh boy was I wrong. Everything in this game is absurd. I love it! You play as Bayonetta, a fashion model witch recently woken up from a long slumber, struggling to catwalk wearing guns for heels recover her memory without losing her swag or something. Her only link to her past is a mysterious, equally glamorous figure, Jeanne, who is kinda of a b**** to her. Amidst combos, Bayonetta will pause for a photograph, or do some pole-dance-like moves to summon a demon who proceeds to possess her hair (which she is in fact wearing? so she kinda gets naked when that happens?) and attack the enemy. On the downside, I am myself not a fan of long-arms-and-legs-and-tiny-head, but I can look past it. The gameplay is challenging even on normal. It is very fast paced, combos are complex and varied. You can purchase new weapons, techniques, upgrades and accessories which act just like levels. The story is divided into 17 "chapters", each having multiple "verses". They then proceed to tease you by grading your performance in each Verse with medals and it is annoying and insulting and not good for my OCD when you get less than Platinum for a job you consider well done. There are 5 difficulties, but you need to finish 3 to unlock 4, and 4 to unlock 5 and let me tell you, you'll regret doing so. No Linux port but worked perfectly on Steam Deck - thanks Valve! The achievements are quite difficult, having to finish the game in the max difficulty. However, it is the "fair" kind of difficult and I love it. Even after getting all achievements there will be extra challenges, hidden levels and bosses with interesting prizes and the insane challenge to get platinum trophy on all difficulties. Honestly, this game was full of "WTF" moments and was VERY entertaining. Just in originality, this scores a perfect 10/10, definitely worthy!

If you can get past the hardness, both of the enemies and of yourself, Bayonetta is a great experience. Music is fun to listen to and very thematic, and the visuals hold up very well for a PS3 game. Fights are fast, fluid, and challenging (sometimes a bit overchallenging) and keep you on your toes the entire time; it will force you to play with both hands on the controller, whether you like it or not. Characters are fun to see interact, Bayo herself is a gem of a character, and the writing mixes funny dialogue, over-the-top flirtatious one-liners, and an actually deep and engaging story. Much like Metal Gear Rising (another platinum game, whoda thunk), it will challenge you more than it probably should, but it's overall a great experience. 8/10.
