Remember how we told you yesterday that Bayonetta had received a coveted perfect score from Japan’s Famitsu? No? Well we did!
Turns out though that there’s a caveat. Now that scans of the magazine are available there’s a fairly important footnote; it seems that that set of quadruple 10’s awarded to the game only applies to the Xbox 360 version.
How did the PS3 version of the same game fare? Not badly at all – it gets a 38, which while not terrible is hardly perfect, is it?
Seems SEGA and Platinum Games just haven’t managed to smooth out the problems that have existed in the PS3 port, despite assurances they would. This seems to continue the unfortunate trend of multiplatform games being just that little bit inferior on Sony’s PS3.
It’s quite clear – if you’re fortunate enough to own both HD consoles, then the 360 version is the one to get.

Nope, I meant 38.
Famitsu scores it games out of 40.
4 reviewers with a score out of 10 each.

oops! I forget they score out of 40.
Still, I think it is pretty pathetic that there should be that big of a difference between the two versions. What about having some pride in your work.
Hey guys @lazy how about doing a review for the new ratchet and clank..i love that series..pweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeas.

I would *LOVE* to review R&C, but we only review what we’re sampled.

If its 38 out of 40 I don’t think the issues can be that big. Should be the same on both consoles???
