Guess that product listing from 2017 was real.

It's crazy how every time there's a game with a lot of consistent praise that isn't a AAA Nintendo or Sony title (Death Stranding and Days Gone excluded), the game is either overrated or is liked by an irrational "cult" of people.

People need to open a thesaurus or take some sort of creative writing class to find some other way to word their opinions. This forum really has a problem with that.

"Successful titles"

A game isn't for me? Must be overrated!

You know you guys aren't doing the "we're rational" stance favor by preemptively arguing against hypothetical LTTP threads right?

If this is real, day 1 baby. I love these games, and I will own them on every platform I can. Also, Bayonetta at (maybe) 4k? Oh man.

The only way to get Vanquish to feel smooth is by playing it on PC.

The OG consoles versions ran pretty bad and stayed under 30 for the vast majority of time in combat.
I mean when I played it on my XB1, it felt pretty great aside from a few issues here and there. Maybe I need to go back and have another look.

The Switch gets left out in the cold :'(

Given Platinums relationship with Nintendo and the fact Vanquish has never been on a Nintendo console, the chances of them remastering it for PS4 and XB1 but not Switch is pretty low and would be a massive wasted opportunity.

Although, with Bayonetta 1 already on switch, this double pack wouldn't make much sense at all.

If I was you I'd be optimistic for Vanquish to be released for Switch a little later as a stand-alone.

I wouldn't exclude Switch getting Vanquish digital only.

Vanquish is probably the best third person shooter ever made. If it does come to PS4 as well, I'll pick this baby up for sure.

This is a Sega initative, not Platinum, and Platinum didn't port either of these games to PC (which these ports are clearly based on), contracted studios like Little Stone Software did, and it's almost certainly the same here.

I'd definitely buy it if it hits PS4, don't have an XB. I remember playing the demo and being really intrigued, although sucking ass, and I kind of just forgot about it :/

Yes, more people playing these games the better, Platinum Games combat is just so good and the reason why I still replay or go back to their games every so often, like I did just this year with MGSRising, Vanquish, Bayonetta and Nier Automata. :D

My bad, although that certainly doesn't prevent it happening.

Very true, probably a lot more worthwhile than doing it physically as they wouldn't have to charge as much

These are probably just the PC versions, right?

Sega decides the platforms, not Platinum

That would be nice.
But I'm honestly more interested in a Switch port, I want to play Vanquish on the toilet.

Legendary game. I remember my buddy letting me borrow this in college as I let him borrow Dark Souls.

Would this be the version number 5625656 I will buy of Bayonetta 1? I honestly lost the count at this point lol.

Probably the most rewarding Platinum trophy I acquired on the PS3. Would do it again on the PS4 in a heart beat.

I would have a chance of finishing Bayonetta. This was a lost game for on the PS3. Color me interested.
