Bayonetta/Shout Out: Difference between revisions

** At the beginning of the game, Bayonetta and Enzo are conducting the funeral of a guy named "[[Sonic the Hedgehog|Eggman]]" and the angel Halos which comprise the game's currency seem awfully familiar.

*** The 'Eggman' line [http://platinumgames.com/2010/04/14/platinum-twilight-and-bayonetta-developer-commentary/ was explained by Kamiya] thus:

** One of the demonic beasts Bayonetta can summon is a reference to Phantom from ''Devil May Cry''. Both happen to be giant demonic spiders filled with lava. Oddly enough, it's portrayed in almost the opposite way; this demon is one of only ''two'' demons referred to positively. It is described as curious, rare, and willing to offer treasures or rare knowledge to those who find it, as opposed to the others which are for the most part described as brutal monstrosities.

*** Games Radar notes all these, and more (such as a subtle one to ''[[God of War (series)|God of War]]'') [http://www.gamesradar.com/f/30-hidden-references-in-bayonetta/a-2010011493658559064 here].
