Big breasts aren't erotic, says Kamiya News

Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 News by Ellie Gibson

13 October, 2009

Bayonetta creator Hideki Kamiya has dismissed suggestions that giant knockers are hot stuff.

That's according to reports floating round the Japanese internet, as reported by Kotaku.

"It's a huge mistake to think like an idiot that big breasts on women seem erotic," Kamiya is quoted as saying.

The statement seems likely to be a dig at his long-time rival, Tomonobu Itagaki, who is best known for his work on the Dead or Alive series and associated huge wobbling bangers. The two developers are often to be found taking a pop at each other - as back in 2008, for example, when they had a spat about Ninja Gaiden.

"I am bald, but I am not gay," Kamiya added, for undiscernible reasons.

He did have some things to say about his new game, such as: "For the opponent, dodging attacks is more humiliating than blocking them." Jolly good.

Bayonetta is in development for PS3 and Xbox 360 and will be released here next year. Visit the gamepage for more info, or just watch this YouTube video of Itagaki's greatest tits.

I loved the demo. Even if it was rough around the technical edges.

But I do like big boobs though:P

Good to see that gaming's moved on since the days of 'that' Maria Whittaker Barbarian advert *ahem*

I hope there will be a bit more pecs/'lunchbox'-related news though- I know EG prides itself as the no.1 portal for erogenous zone news for all genders (with the occasional bit about computer games)

"It's a huge mistake to think like an idiot that big breasts on women seem erotic,"

? I like big boobies....so does that make me an idiot or something? I'm also bald and have no idea why a bald head means you are gay :)

Anyway, I actually saw a video of this crappy game yesterday (that boring DF "look it's got more pixels!" stuff), have you guys seen this Bayonetta? It's basically a DMC/GOW clone with a naked woman (not all the time) used to sell to all the teens and pervy Japanese.

That guy from Capcom certainly had a point about the Japanese games industry......

Bit much, but he's right. I'm going to risk bemusing the majority of readers here, big breasts (and sweet baby Jesus in the manger, do I love them myself) are hot but big breasts in themselves are not necessarily erotic.

The big bald gayer.

Anyway - they mighn't be especially erotic, but on the right person they can be very attractive.

Definitely eye-catching.

More like eye-swallowing.

Totally, completely and utterly distracting.

Yes.

So... this guy is criticising big breasts... doesn't his new character have an outfit made of hair that makes her naked when she conjures up various creatures/spells?

It's the new console vs. console argument; how best to attract the sad one handed [Japanese] gamer market: motion controlled monster boob wobbling with poorly implemented simple harmonic physics, or low poly poorly textured badly proportioned partial nudity flashes. Perhaps Digital Foundry could work themselves into a hand shandy with some sort of waste of time tech comparison.

Me - I find real flesh and blood women erotic, not pixels. And I'm not gay either.

This guy needs to look up some porn tubes of Gianna Michaels or Katerina Konec. Next he'll be saying he doesn't find brunette chicks with glasses hot (which I thought was the whole point of Bayonetta)

"Big breasts aren't erotic", says the guy who already admitted to very much appreciating beautiful asses. I for one don't see what is the big fuss about asses all about...

Different tastes, that's all. Not need to call those who prefer breasts idiots.

Breasts are great, the bigger the better.

As long as they're not attached to very large girls who think they have massive tits when it's really nothing but flab.
A bit like a female version of a fat chested out of shape bloke.

No need for such chubby madness!

Well judging on the footage I've seen of Bayonetta so far, he might not be a breast man but he does seem to enjoy constantly showing off Bayonetta's backside.

i love obscenly big breasts. even saggies :) but in a game, digital breasts wobbling about seems a bit pathetic - and embarrasing.

C-cups are the pinnacle. both busty and retaining certain pertness.

I love boobs, period. But I have issues with the fact that I seem programmed to like them.

A girl with pert breasts walk by, jiggling - my mouth falls open and I HAVE TO LOOK AT HER.

Shame the Gaiden series is a shit load better than the DMC games (especially the more recent ones) and I imagine it will still be significantly better than Bayonetta, I was quite excited for it but I watched a fair amount of gameplay footage from the Jap demo yesterday and stylistically wise it looks EXACTLY like DMC and the combat system looks kind of clunky...

EDIT: Also just to note: all boobs are lovely for the simple fact that they're all boobs and odds are they're attached to a women and if that woman is letting you see her boobs then you're probably just about to have yourself a lovely time.

@ SleepyMagpie

A fun little fact (or excuse) for you, apparently ALL men are actually programmed to look at breasts. Some studies were done years ago and men look at breasts even subconsciously. So fellas even those times you got blamed for looking when you weren't....you were! I can't remember exactly but it's something to do with looking for a good mate back when we lived in caves or something.

Honest ladies, I'm not making this up.....

Sorry gotta disagree Mr Kamiya, I absolutely adore nice natural larger than average breasts. And coincidentally I think baynetta is creepy, and find the DOA girls [b]sexually[/b] more appealing.

Did you know the reason why the women stand behind the men in some mosques is to prevent the men from looking up their bottoms when praying? Makes sense when you think about it. It may not hold true in all of them though.

Im sorry but you are the idiot that you think you are selling games for including big breast and counting on tho idiots that do care for digital boobs and also are the idiot if you are telling me that you would rather have your wife with lemontits than boobs that can fill your hands and play with any time of the day willingly.

Other than that DOA has always been in my favs list of the genre, after Killer Instict.
