Bayonetta, can now pick it up Steam for a mere price of $20.  So far, it looks like the game is getting "Very Good" reception on Steam for being a quality port.

Quote

Bayonetta. The last survivor of an ancient witch clan who keep the balance between light, dark and chaos. Entombed to protect herself – and the world as we know it – Bayonetta is discovered and revived after 500 years, sparking a chain of events with cataclysmic repercussions.

Thrust straight into battle, with only one clue to her past, Bayonetta must discover the truth and fight for the future. Her daunting conquest sees her face off against countless angelic enemies and giant foes in a game of 100% pure action.

The premise of the game seems to be "sexy female combat", and a lot of Bayonetta's moves show her skin while she is kicking "angel" ass.  It's the same creator who made Devil May Cry, so I can see where the gameplay would be going, too.

Here's what the game play looks like on max settings:

That's some flashy combat! As expected of the genius behind Devil May Cry.  I'll probably pick this one up, eventually, it certainly looks like a wondrous feast of visuals and action.  And here I almost got the WII U version! I always prefer playing these kind of games with a mouse+keyboard combo myself. Hopefully Bayonetta 2 is ported next!
