In a recent official blog entry, Tatsuya Minami, President and CEO of Paltinum Games, anounced that they will not be developing the PS3 port of Bayonetta, and will be handing if off to SEGA, and Platinum games will be “giving them advice… and overseeing the progress”.
As some of you dedicated readers may remember, our guest writer Andrew wrote an aticle about Bayonetta for our E3 coverage back in July, and I think it was pretty obvious how overly excited he and the rest of GamersRoute was about this title.
Of course, those with Xbox 360s have nothing to worry about. But for those of us who have PS3s, this news doesn’t make me feel too comfortable, especially with a line like this:
We feel the best way to evaluate this [the differences] is by actually playing the game for yourself and coming to your own conclusions.
I can’t help but feel that what’s really being said is this: “Yeah, the game is not gonna be the same. And we’re not actually a part of the PS3 port. But we’ll just go ahead with this plan and let you deal with it.”
I guess we won’t know till it comes out. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for all of us Bayonetta-wantin’ PS3 owners out there.
