Cruddy_horse 08/13/19 2:41:03 PM #11:	I've been playing Gears 4 since it's free on Xbox in anticipation of 5, the game is far inferior to 3 with nearly everything about it being smaller from going from 4 player Campaign back to 2, removal of Beast mode and multiple fan-favorite Versus modes, a removal of many weapons and locking Horde class progression(aswell as changes I don't like) behind Loot Boxes.

Ferarri619 08/14/19 10:53:48 PM #20:	I finally finished Bayonetta on Nonstop Infinite Climax difficulty the other day, the hardest part of the game? The Alfheim challenges, and I did them on NORMAL FFS. I literally punched my controller a few times doing this one Alfheim that took me 3 hours of nonstop playing to finally finish it. There were more ridiculous alfheims too that were not fun to play and just frustrating. I hated them but I finished them. Started Bayonetta 2 and it is way better. I bet the devs must have received many complaints about the first game's difficulty and maybe that's why Bayonetta 2 is more forgiving. Also got addicted to Devil May Cry 2 HD to get the Playstation platinum trophy for the game. That game just plain sucked. --- ~Nintendo 64. Get N or Get out.
