Who has this OP beaten exactly for it to be so great to begin with? All the other OPs it beat were cans. I can't wait until this OP is exposed for the fraud it is.

It's not empty. It's a floating head of Russell Westbrick smirking.
Looks like we're already divided on the greatness of this OP.
Nice to know nothing has changed

Next you're gonna tell us Bayonetta is a shitty game.
He already thinks it's an anime, cut him some slack.

Hand-drawn artwork of a Japanese videogame character ≠ anime.

Of course he will, everything is shitty for him.

The only thing you taste is shit because that's what everything taste likes you. You're like Stan Marsh in that episode of South Park where he becomes so cynical that he develops hallucinations of seeing shit every where and sounds becomes farts.
inb4 "south park is shitty"
And friend, I do have taste. I have taste for the most refined action combat gameplay of this generation, one that rivals the likes of Ninja Gaiden Black and Devil May Cry 3:Special Edition from last generation. That is what Bayonetta provides.

Have you played Bayonetta to evaluate this for yourself, yes or not?
I played the demo, games are expensive here.

1. Aside from the odd PRIDE DVDs and old UFCs from the tournament era, the first MMA show I watched as it happened was UFC 86 just like our new friend Can. I never actually watched TUF until the Heavyweights season as I avoided all things reality TV and it didn't seem like something I'd enjoy and was more exposed to PRIDE/DREAM than TUF from 05 to 08 through DVDs that friends owned (and HDNET later). So I'm kind of the opposite of a TUF noob even though I started following the sport during the TUF boom. I think I became more of a hardcore fan around UFC 96 or so where I actually watched every fight on the main card and knew who most of the guys were and did so for every UFC from that point onward.
2. Fedor (love/hate relationship since the whole UFC negotiation thing/cherry picking fights in Strikeforce really pissed me off)
Cro Cop (every one of his UFC fights was painful to watch though, including Eddie Sanchez and Mostapha Al-Turk)
BJ Penn (His post-GSP Lightweight run was amazing to watch)
Alistair Overeem (Best striking in the HW division, gonna take Can Velasquez's name off of the OP)
Junior Dos Santos (Knockout king, he'll be back in the W column soon)
3. First show I attended was UFC 104: Machida/Shogun 1. Got free tickets from Uncle Dana when he gave them away through Twitter. Been to a fuckload of shows since including Silva/Sonnen 1, and the next show I'll be attending is UFC 157: Hendo vs. Machida.
And yes FACE, Bayonetta is up there with Ninja Gaiden: Black. Deal With It.

Bayonneta sucks.
Feels like a game stuck in the Ps2 era, with better visuals. Might as well just replay Ninja Gaiden Black.

Fair enough. Just don't judge the depth of an entire character action game on a ten minute demo, I know you're smarter than that.
It'd be like someone playing NGB for ten minutes, saying "this is too hard and unfair, it's no good" and that's that.
Not sure if this is a problem with the demo, but the enemies just stood around while I whooped their friends. It doesn't matter if the combat system is incredibly deep if the enemies are boring.
Funny that you mentioned NGB, one of the reasons I really like that game is that enemies are super aggressive from the beginning and it makes fighting them really fun.
You don't like Bayonetta. That doesn't mean it sucks
bone_and_sinew
breaking down barriers in gratuitous nudity
They don't do that on the higher difficulties (which is where the real game is much like how Master Ninja is where the real NGB is, everything else is just to train for that mode) and there is an entire dodging mechanic built on the premise of resuming combos you had to interrupt because you dodged.

Of course, the sucking part is never a sure thing. I like my gf, and she sucks for example.
Maybe I'm bad at games, but NG:B was challenging even on the normal difficulty.
It's not like there's anything worth discussing on that Strikeforce card. Gotta keep the thread going in the meantime.

Yeah, Bayonetta is certainly from the can school of thought. Cans look good and flashy and dangerous when they are beating on even bigger cans than them.
Ninja gaiden is about constantly proving you are the best.

Let's get back on the saddle.
Friends, this weekend marks the death rattle of Strikeforce. They will cease existence after this card. What is your most memorable Strikeforce moment?
The armbar that shocked the world:
The black eye on free national television and one of America's biggest networks:
One of the best one-round scraps I've ever seen and the fight of the year:

finished all 3 on the 360.

I was tempted to includes Nick Diaz's "fuck yo braces, clown" moment when he flippped of Fwank Shamrock. Nick Diaz made Strikeforce, imo.

On the subject of MMA-ness, I'm less than happy that I missed out on a PRIDE 49-DVD lot that only went for something like $135 w/shipping. The seller was dim enough to have the auction end on Christmas Eve, so I was watching it hoping to snatch it at a great price, but I ended up neglecting the auction while entertaining company and forgot to bid at the last moment. Someone out there got a great deal.
I probably would have just flipped it anyways.

The backtracking is truly awful, but I love the gameplay enough to overlook it. Nero is fun as hell to play

Young pit, while you're here, what does "vai cavalo" mean? Does it really mean "go horse"?
The only bit of DMC I've ever played was the demo for 4 when it first came out. Whatever 4 is like I will go ahead and assume the rest of the series is like and my opinion shall stand!
Problem is I'm enjoying too many other games at the moment. and books. and movies. and hockey is back soon.

I've answered these in the previous threads but for the new thread:
1. UFC 1 on ppv. I watched the next few on video rental, and then lost interest. Being from Hawaii, I'd kinda pay attention to the Inoue bros and BJ, but otherwise didn't follow until my friends started watching Pride in the mid-2000s. Sakuraba and Crocop were the first two Pride fighters I got into. I caught up with UFC via rentals and other means, and then rode the TUF/Spike wave here.
2. Aldo, Diaz bros, Barnetto, Candy, JLo
3. Not sure, one of the Super Brawls. I remember Jason Miller cut a haole heel promo and got the crowd all nuts.

I may as well take Cain's name off the OP right now and replace it with Overeem. The shit's inevitable, brehs.
Bam. The dude doesn't do steroids so shut up about it now pls

Oh yeah the questions:
1) I honestly don't remember because I casually watched UFC and PRIDE beginning in 2003 the way people casually watch boxing or only see the Super Bowl in the NFL. That's all I can remember. The first event I remember where I finally started watching more as hardcore and following the day-to-day stuff in the sport was Page-Hendo. I was super hyped for that fight.
2) Machida, Hendo, Korean Zombie, Crusher Kawajiri, Anthony Pettis, Nick Diaz. Yeah that's more than 5, deal with it.
3) None yet I'm waiting for something besides UFC Fight Night caliber cards or Bellator. I didn't go to Strikeforce Miami or any of Kimbo's fights in South Florida, which I kinda regret.
4) Hendo
5) Comeback to being a middling gatekeeper? Sure.
6) He has the greatest heart of any fighter I've ever seen.

He didn't take steroids while he was suspended, what a shock! I'm still pissed off at him for getting caught and losing JDS v Overeem as a result.
1. I watched some Vale Tudo shows by accident. But Pride 10, specifically Igor Vovchanchyn x Enson Inoue, was the event that caught my attention.
2. All my heroes are dead.
3. Never attended a MMA show and I don't want to attend one.

Me too, I was in the crowd for that shitshow. I was so hyped for that whole main card pre-failed drug test.
