I liked how every moment in Bayonetta's story was more absurd than the last. Judging from the demo, Vanquish has some similarly exaggerated characters as well.
Played the demo and very much enjoyed it. A a gears of war-esque game it is much better than quantum theory....that game looks bloody awful.
Bayonettas plot was utter garbage but the execution was so well done and so hilariously over the top that the whole plot turned out to be very entertaining.
Lets just wait and see how this one turns out. The demo was very cool. I needed a little time to get used to it and break out from the typical thinking in cover based shooters. But when you get the grip of it it's very fun to play.

What Bayonetta had the greatest plot ever I mean it was Oscar worthy. And on that point I have a bridge to sell you .
Bayonetta's plot is unique in that it's nonsense made the game even more endearing to me. The game's presentation and art design was unlike any other game I've ever played, and the storyline kept implanting the idea that this was the game the developers wanted to make. They made no compromises, and it's an experience I'm unlikely to find anywhere else.
Now as for Vanquish, they definitely seem to be going for something a bit more traditional, and if that means a more traditional storyline, I'm okay with that.

I think I'm (almost) alone in this, but the demo fully put me off.
I might rent it, maybe, one day...

Judging by the demo (cutscenes/voice acting), the story is indeed utter cheese.
But that's fine. I loved it in Bayonetta and I'll love it here. Expecting anything more is setting yourself up for disappointed, though.

I'm kinda in the same boat. Demo didn't really do it for me, but I only ran through it once. Curious to go back and toy around with a little more before I write it off though.

Do I care about plot in these games?
No. I come for the action, and stay for the action.
Too many games are narrative driven these days.

I've never been to interested in the game. Played the demo and it came across as a dry husk of a game, with decent mechanics wrapped around boring enemies, waist-high-cover level design and a non-existent plot.

Nooooo!!! San Francisco!!!
But yeah the plot looks like utter cheese, however the action looks absolutely insane.

Ok, I know this game is gonna be awesome, I can't wait for it, but I have to ask one thing:
Why is his visor on his mouth? Is he Tom Tucker's son?

My speakers at work aren't even working but this trailer still managed to get me more excited about this game.
I almost gave up on it because I downloaded the PSN demo first and hated the controls - it killed a lot of the interest I had in the game. For some reason I also tried the Xbox Live demo and for whatever reason I found the controls easier to handle. I wouldn't say they're perfect but felt much better. But I've got to get used to playing FPS/TPS on PS3 because if Deadspace 2 and Portal 2 are any indication (all things being equal) developers may start taking advantage of is unique features (storage space, not as closed a system as 360).

I was sold on this game until I tried the demo... The suit overheating all the time is very annoying and the controls are way too shoddy.
Also, am I the only one who found Bayonetta's story to make sense The plot is incredibly simple... There are quite a few loose ends, some character motivations are very unclear,and the execution on the whole was shaky at best, but it wasn't batshit to the point of "WTF IS GOING ON HERE?!".

"The suit overheating all the time is very annoying"
I wonder if the suit upgrades like weapons giving longer boosts/shorter recharge time. I still want the game (as long as it's not 6-7 hours then I'll wait until it's on clearance) but you do become vuberable when overheated.

This is the first multiplatform game I'm gonna get for PS3 instead of Xbox. The demo for PS3 just seemed so much better, it was a little more frantic and graphics seemed much smoother. Xbox version has this hazy look to it.
I hadn't heard about this game until this morning when I tried out the demo. It reminds me quite a bit of Gunvalkyrie, only with controls that a human being can understand. Any of the old SmileBit crew end up at Platinum Games?
