What’s Bayonetta developer Platinum Games got planned for its next outing? We have no idea. But we’re willing to bet that this mesmerizing new countdown clock – which combines the best parts of a fireworks show and a disco ball – might have something to do with it.

It’ll tick it’s final tock sometime at the end of this week. Friday-ish, we’re thinking. Go stare at it for a while. Maybe you’ll discover the meaning of existence or something.

According to a report over on Gamekyo (per Wearetheinternetz), Sega and Platinum Games are “taking responsibility” for the PS3 version of Bayonetta, and a team at Sony hard at work fixing the game.

When comparisons to the Xbox 360 version were made, the PS3 version was found to sport murkier graphics, longer load times, and bad framerates; therefore the team hopes to “guarantee” a better version of the game outside of Japan.

SEGA responded to the load time bit last month, stating that it was “well aware of this issue” and were “working on a solution”.

Looks like Sony to the rescue, then.

SEGA has announced preorder bonuses available to folks in the UK who want to get their hands on Bayonetta, and then some.

The Climax Edition (snicker), available through Play for PS3 and Xbox 360 comes with a limited edition slipcase package, an artbook and soundtrack CD.

Game has the Replica Scarborough Fair Gun is one of four “infamous” handguns.

In it you can see some of the forms the hot little witch shapeshifts into.

Go have a look through the link.

It’s out January 8.

Sega’s shown off the new Bayonetta model through Maxim. See here.

We had no idea there was an old Bayonetta model, unless you count the woman in very tight rubber you see a lot on UKR.

But anyway, there she is. She’s called Andrea Bonaccorso.

“While some entrants perfectly mirrored the outfit of the character and others simply donned librarian glasses, Andrea married both elements to come out on top,” said someone at Maxim.

The game’s out in the west next year. You’ll get a demo next week.

Sega’s just confirmed that the Western demo release of Bayonetta will get a US-EU sim-release next Wednesday for Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Network.

A Japanese demo was previously released on the PlayStation Store and XBLMP.

It comes as the game gets a previously announced January 8 release in the UK, with it becoming only the 11th game ever to get a 10 from Edge.

Two words: buy. it.

Press release is after the break.
