Sega May Be Working On Bayonetta PS3 Fix

bayonetta-art

It seems that the previously announced price difference between the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 version of Bayonetta was not enough to temper the PS3 owners of the game who continue to cite slow loading time, lesser graphic quality, and frame rate issues with the port. Well, a fix may be on the way.

A recently translated post on French gaming site Gamekyo, claims the following:

“Sega and Platinum Games have taken responsibility for the bad port before deciding to work with the assistance of an engineering team from Sony to guarantee a PS3 version equal to the level of the console’s power.”

I’ve emailed Sega in hopes of getting an official word on the matter and will keep you posted as soon as I’m able to confirm or deny the information.

I feel it’s important to note that while reading several of the translated comments myself, I did see a fair amount of individuals who stated that the port issues were not as bad as some were making it out to be. I haven’t played it on the PS3 personally, so if you have and would like to share your thoughts in the comment section below please do so.

    It's very bad!
    Besides the long loadings problem, Bayonetta has also big tearing screen problem which is also very annoying. So, if they will release patch, it will fix the loading problem, but I don't think it will solve the tearing problem. So for me, it's 50% fix. I can tell you what would fix the game for 100%: PC release! Devil May Cry 4 looked best for PC and if you have some gamepad like Xbox 360 gamepad for Windows, it's then absolutely same like you would playing it on console, except the better graphic quality on PC. PS3 version of Bayonetta is really bad and to be honest I think that any games should not be released in such a state.

    So what I wish is PC version. I own strong PC and PS3. But I'm afraid they will never release the PC version :-(

    its very bad indeed!

    terrible load times. menus take forever to open. takes away from the continuity of the game. very blurry gameplay.

    this game was suppose to be a great release! alot of gamers were waiting very patiently for it to be released. an absolute shame on the part of the developers and porters to let down ps3 owners, as we are so many in numbers. devil may cry was a great game, and this was it's following…..but the sad part is devil may cry 4 was way better in quality than bayonetta and it was released many years ago. i cant believe platinum would allow this.

    if you play video games infrequently, you wont notice. but if you play video games alot, and were a fan of devil may cry, and were patiently anticipating this release of bayonetta, you will be disappointed. again, a real disappointment on part of sega for such a terrible port, and even moreso a real disappointment on part of platinum for allowing it to be released like this. where were the beta testers in all this!

    fuck sega……fixing it wont solve shit. you write a port, and then you compile the code. a “fix” is just a patch of code on top of already bad code.

    and what about those who already bought the game? we just suppose to put the game down and not play it until the fix is released?

    as an old gensis owner, i was so excited to hear sega got the contract for the port. i was glad to hear they are back in the scene. but they let me down. i will never purchase another sega product again. no self-respecting video game company would release a game like this. not at today's standards.
