Because they both suck now, and Platinum is the only company good enough to make them now. Dying genre is dying.

The overpowered nature of certain combos/weapons/magics tend to overshadow any depth of the combat for me as I end up reverting back to abusing the Izuna Drop over and over. I ended up beating the last boss by spamming ninpo. Use all my casts, replenish with an item. Repeat until he died. It was great, cause I don't know if I would've finished the game without that, since he was kicking my ass and I had about half health and 0 healing items by the time I got through that bullshit climbing section right before him.

Try playing NGB on anything past Normal. Shit will make you sweat. They withhold Izuna Drop on harder difficulties so you have to actually play. And you can abuse tons of shit in tons of action games. I abuse the

out of air raid in DMC1. lol
I could say I abused the

out of jump cancelling in DmC, but you can abuse about half of that game's moves easily. Quick review : Best NT game yet, not saying much, probably better than DMC2 just because it has more colors than brown.
Though this cutscene will always trump DmC.

It'll be ni to see if Rising will take the throne for me. Bayonetta had potential, but I still felt it wasn't quite as good as DMC3 or DMC4 for me. Particularly the fact that even the "good" version had slowdown in areas when it wasn't even that busy on screen.

DMC4 was so damn good, but people hated on it. Whatevs. Haven't finished Bayonetta, but from what I've played, it's alright. Rising is already better than it just from a demo.

Speaking of, has anyone seen noticeable slowdown in Rising when they're NOT cutting something it 8000329482304928304982039 pieces? *cough*hank*cough*

Oh, you're just forgetting Zeki's GOTY 2012 -- Ninja Gaiden 3 DOES exist. It even got an updated edition on the hardcore WiiU. You can buy it when you pick up Betrayonetta 2. :P

Best action games ever, on the best system ever.
