Tales From the Bargain Bin: Anarchy Reigns

Tim Allen, GIZORAMA - "Platinum Games, the eccentric Japanese developer behind titles such as Bayonetta, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, and The Wonderful 101 exist in kind of a strange space for a Japanese niche studio: better-regarded than Grasshopper but not quite as beloved as Atlus (the guys behind those Persona games your RPG friends wont shut up about), with the majority of their games existing in this sort of yeah, that was pretty good space. A new Platinum game comes out, the Internet gets pretty excited, it gets a lot of 6/10-7/10 scores (except Bayonetta 2, weirdly), and it winds up being pretty cheap after a few months so GameStop can make room for more used copies of Destiny. Or at least thats how it worked when I used to work at video game stores. Perfectly into that little bucket fell poor Anarchy Reigns."
