The blue hedgehog is wasting no time. After last years' underwhelming Sonic: Lost World, it would be understandable if there wasn't anything new to report for a while, but Sega is not content with staying down. While there have been reports of a new Sonic game in the works, Sega denied the rumors, calling them "incorrect". At a New York City event, however, Sega revealed that a new franchise in the Sonic the Hedgehog brand is being developed.

Bayonetta is a 4-gun-wielding witch, with insane moves, and a walk of a seductress. She came to our screens in 2009, and the game plays similar to Devil May Cry. You can hack and slash gracefully with magic spells, or blow some brains out with your many guns. After 500 years of sleep in a coffin at the bottom of a lake, Bayonetta is awoken without memory of her past, and we play out her story as she scrambles to get it back. Often calm in nature when it comes to fights, enjoying destroying angels with a playful manner.
