5 Hit Points: Hideki Kamiya (Bayonetta)

Bayonetta Director Hideki Kamiya is all about stylish action. Not only is he responsible for the fast and flashy Devil May Cry series, but he's also working on a game starring a gun-toting witch who sports pistols on shoes -- fierce! Yeah, it's obvious he can make ass-kickings look fabulous, but will he look pretty after we hit him up with our five random questions? Let's find out.



1. Bayonetta stars a witch who shoots gun. So does another game that came out on the Xbox 360 a few years ago. Can you name it?

Hideki Kamiya: Bullet Witch.

Bitmob: Correct.

Points: 1; Hits: 0



2. Tomb Raider's Lara Croft started the whole hot-chicks-with-guns craze. Speaking of Lara, a Japanese publisher recently leveled-up by purchasing Tomb Raider's publisher Eidos. Which company now owns all of Croft's assets?

HK: Square Enix.

Bitmob: Correct. You're racking up a combo here.

Points: 2; Hits: 0



3. You provided the voice for prosecutor Godot in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trials and Tribulations. Recently a Japanese performance troupe adapted the Phoenix Wright saga to the stage. How many men performed in the musical?

HK: None.

Bitmob: Correct -- it's all-girl troupe. You can't be stopped!

Points: 3; Hits: 0



4. You've talked about being a big fan of the arcade version of Gradius. What's the name of the series of games that spoofs Gradius?

HK: Parodius.

Bitmob: Correct again! Is there anything you don't know? If so, tell us, please.

Points: 4; Hits: 0



5. Bayonetta designer, Kenichiro "Yoshi" Yoshimura, recently wrote a blog about making the model for Bayonetta. In it, he mentions his love for a certain part of a woman's body. What part is that?

HK: Butt.

Bitmob: Correct, he loves asses! Speaking of asses, you royally kicked ours.

HK: He's probably the best butt-maker in the world.

Bitmob: I guess he's a valuable, uh, asset. Yeah. Ahem, anyway...

Points: 5; Hits: 0



Final Score:
5 Points (Perfect Score)

Ouch! That hurt, Kamiya. Next time at least pretend like you don't know an answer.

I love these articles, one of my favourite parts of EGM. It was goofy and you got to see the non-gaming side of whoever you were interviewing. I am glad to see that you guys are carrying on the tradition.

Weird, I don't recall him saying anything about extra hairy girls. I'm gonna have to bust out my old EGMs.
