Idiotic game for idiotic people
This game is a pathetic excuse for a peepshow at proportionally deformed women. The combat is cool, but far too unrealistic. The developers should have just been making Devil May Cry 5 instead of this ridiculous waste of time.

Well lets start.
The reviewer below me claims its appropiate for all ages. Actually he's 10 so he shouldn't be playing it anyway. Its really well not suitable for all ages. This game has all aspects of violence. Torture,Dismemberment and tons and tons of blood. The sex just goes on and on. Its like a witch extremely violent GTA. :) This is given a 15 age rating in my country which quite frankly is ridiculous. 18 it should be. Anywayyy. Its a great game but disturbingly violent. PLAY IT.

Not for everyone
I love this game from the moment that I picked it up from the store. Younger kids really shouldn't be playing since it's quite bloody and parents might not like the idea of a witch killing angels. So teenagers 15 and up can have no problem playing the game.

Good for those that know better
I've played this game and its really cool. If your kid (like me) knows that some things shouldnt be imatated then something like this shouldn't be a problem. The game is easy to learn and I love everything about it.

Sexuality is the biggest issue, light tone negates violence and language
The only real issue you should have with Bayonetta is the sexuality. Definitely not appropriate for anyone under 13 or 14 but lets be honest, past that point people have a pretty good idea about sexuality. The tone is fairly light so the violence, language, and sexuality are gratuitous but never truly offensive. As for the religious aspect, this isn't challenging beliefs, it's just taking a different spin on the Devil May Cry formula.

Just perfect for the right child.
I think bayonetta is awesome. I played this game when I was 9 going on 10 years old. I have been gaming sense the age of 3 years old playing mortal kombat, def jam, and god of war at 5 years old. I was always a mature child. So IF u don't mind language it is fine for kids at 8.

Amazing, crazy action title
Despite other opinions I would consider this game nothing short of fantastic.To start, yes, the story is completely insane, and the dialogue and voice acting feel like they come from a B-rate movie (not a put-down by the way). Without this mixture the game would not be the masterpiece it is. Yes, often, the protagonist Bayonetta is often seen half naked, but only when she's using her powers to the fullest extent against her enemies. I would consider Bayonetta herself an awesome female role-model. She's powerful, intelligent, capable, independent and wields her sexuality like a weapon. To anyone who has issues with her proportion, well she was designed to be tall and slender like a bayonet as her name suggests. The gameplay surpassed Devil May Cry by miles in terms of fluidity and variety. Bayonettat was, in many ways, meant to be an homage to the DMC series but far surpassed it in my opinion. There isn't an excessive amount of violence, so I believe the game is appropriate with those in their mid-late teens.

Ok,I really am all for this kind of stuff but this really,really sucked.
I looked up IGN's review and saw it was good so I got this game for my PS3 from Amazon.But,sadly,it wasn't that of a memorable experience.This game sucks.Dont buy it.You don't have to worry about violence.Dont even get it in the first place.You have been warned.Prepare for a load of disappointment,
