Bayonetta 2

Every aspect of Bayonetta 2 feels polished and focused. At times, the writing feels ridiculous, but I still love how it plays. The superb pacing and combat are just that good. By the end I was convinced: This sequel builds on everything that made the original great, and delivers one of the most satisfying action games I've played.

On one level, it’s utter nonsense, not to mention camper than a Strictly Come Dancing Abba special presented by C3-PO and Alan Carr. Its star remains, as in the first game, one of gaming’s most intriguing heroines; a leather-clad, ass-kicking witch so ludicrously over-sexualised that you can only assume it’s tongue in cheek.
