Some blog at gametrailers has a gameplay description of Bayonetta.  If true the game sounds awesome!

So it is essentially an unsaid successor to Devil May Cry? Hmm hopefully they will fix those horrid camera angles.

While I enjoyed Devil May Cry I in no way saw it as the "extrememly fast and deep combat" game that everyone else saw it to be.

Extremely fast? Personally I don't see how it's any faster then the high points of "The World Ends With You". I could only attack one enemy at a time, not to mention that they were braindead, and it took some time to transition attack to attack. Deep combat? Try playing a fighting game. Combining both? Guilty Gear? Melty Blood? Those are far faster and deeper then Devil May Cry. Oh and they have good camera angles.

I mean don't get me wrong the game gives me the FEEL of being fast paced and being frantic, but in reality it isn't very much so. Personally I think if they are going for a third person perspective for these games they should look up the angles, designs, and enemy placements left in from "Sin and Punishment" (though it is a different type of action game they could learn alot from it.)

I've seen one piece its decent, but I'd rather watch it for free than pay any money for it...Animecrazy.net and Veoh have everything I need. My favorites as seen in the Ring of Fire Thread:

Samurai X (Rurouni Kenshin OVAs

Black Lagoon

Basilisk

Elfen Lied

Tenjho Tenje

Death Note

Monster

You fucking asshole! You are killing the anime industry! I HATE YOU. It's piracy's fault for the market being on a HUGE decline in profit , forget the ridiculous pricing (I.E. $25 for 4 episodes), giving fans the lack of incentive to buy their products, not expanding towards digital distribution, lack of new and innovative shows, not asking the fanbase what is bothering them and why they are pirating. No it is all your fault you MONSTER!

Anyway that is one damn good list. While I felt that "Elfen Lied" was awesome (looks at complete series boxset) the directing and characters were just too damn awkward. I mean they just reacted very generic and poor at times. "Monster" however goes the complete opposite route. It is beautifully scripted and directed. I'd love to buy it but it is only avaliable in Japan. *Sigh* if only all anime creators would pay attention to these things as much as "Monster". "Death Note" IMO is exactly what the market needs right now. Very new, different, wide market appeal, and appeals to those who wouldn't be into most anime. "Black Lagoon" use to be a favorite of mine but now that I watch it again it suffers the same fate of with the Marvel comics. Basically it feels WAY too unrealistic due to it being in a realistic setting with just some unrealistic events. In terms of "Naruto", I haven't watched it but anime fans always like to point their fingers and yell at something. I don't see why "Bleach" doesn't get haggled on being that there is only one good arc in it (from what I have seen, ended at Episode 150). Oh and did I mention that half the show is filler?

IGN Signs Content Deal With Xbox Live [Xbox 360]

". . . Microsoft have announced that they've signed a deal with IGN to bring the site's IGN Strategize segments to Xbox Live. Or, more specifically, that they're bringing the site's IGN Strategize segments to Xbox Live, and they'll be hosted by Jessica Chobot. Neat way to get the IGN brand on Xbox Live without worrying about editorial concerns, that (Strategize being a video hints and tips section)." --Kotaku

I understand the concept, but ugh, I don't like the sound of the gaming media being that close to that big of a player in gaming.  Is Microsoft going to be very happy about a segment that bashes a big Xbox franchise?  What about mentioning the Wii's growing sales lead?  If they let it go without dispute, great, but I don't trust the development.

Anyway that is one damn good list. While I felt that "Elfen Lied" was awesome (looks at complete series boxset) the directing and characters were just too damn awkward. I mean they just reacted very generic and poor at times. "Monster" however goes the complete opposite route. It is beautifully scripted and directed. I'd love to buy it but it is only avaliable in Japan. *Sigh* if only all anime creators would pay attention to these things as much as "Monster". "Death Note" IMO is exactly what the market needs right now. Very new, different, wide market appeal, and appeals to those who wouldn't be into most anime. "Black Lagoon" use to be a favorite of mine but now that I watch it again it suffers the same fate of with the Marvel comics. Basically it feels WAY too unrealistic due to it being in a realistic setting with just some unrealistic events. In terms of "Naruto", I haven't watched it but anime fans always like to point their fingers and yell at something. I don't see why "Bleach" doesn't get haggled on being that there is only one good arc in it (from what I have seen, ended at Episode 150). Oh and did I mention that half the show is filler?

Anime outside of the Internet is impossible to get around here.  Instead there's crap like Deal or No Deal on 8 times a day between constant commercials for "The Love Guru".  As you can imagine, I don't watch anything but the Daily Show and The Colbert Report anymore.

I did see Death Note on one day, but I'm sorry, I couldn't get past the worst opening sequence I've ever seen.  This was just unbearable.  I watched Bleach right before it.  Meh.

Oh, and Azumanga Daioh FTW.

^^^Well I don't watch anime on TV (HATE DUBS). I download online. Though when my PC is down (which it now is and I am now on my Mom's PC) I use my Wii and stream anime online. Yes it isn't as good of picture quality but my TV is 52" so the picture is HUGE.

Oh and that song is really cool, same with the band...too bad they are talentless.

So you like anime but it isn't avaliable to you? Huh OMGZ itz not teh priatcyz!

I agree with everything the PRE said, in his last quote, and shamefully also in the one before it. : (
