Devil May Cry: Dante’s Vertical Slice

PlayStation Blog: Last year, Capcom and Ninja Theory revealed their re-imagining of Devil May Cry (now known as “DmC”) at the 2010 Tokyo Game Show. The response to Dante’s makeover and new look to the universe was split between adoration and outright confusion, with fans questioning the new look and fighting style of protagonist Dante. Heading into gamescom, I received word that Creative Director Tameem Antoniades wanted to discuss DmC’s progress and indulge me in Dante’s new found love for aerial combat. After being reunited with Tameem and Dante, I’m left crying for more.

I honestly want to know what the appeal of new Dante's look is?

Is it cool now to look like a meth addict who listens to bad music and doesn't wash?.

Cpt_kitten5298d ago

next up is a god of war reboot and we'll change his look too lol

bakasora5298d ago

Forget about this.
Give me Bayonetta 2

zerocrossing5298d ago

Could you imagine Kratos new look? waist long hair, body piercings and a Hello Kitty tattoo, lol.

I say give this game a chance. If you guys are real Devil May Cry fans like most of you claim to be. Then buying this game shouldn't be so much of a hassle for you guys. However, after playing it and you think its $hit then its a waste of $60 lol. Nevertheless, i think they deserve a chance to prove themselves.

Oh, but after "Nero" where did you guys think Devil May Cry would end up? They F$%ked it up when they introduced him.

VileAndVicious5298d ago

I didnt think Nero was so bad....
But dmc 4 in general to me was just a lazy effort dante was pretty much the exact same as he was in dmc3... And the back tracking!?

Im gonna give this one a shot

Sorry dude I work to earn my money so I've made it a point not to support shoddy work from developers who are want to dump trash on me for 60 bucks

zerocrossing5298d ago (Edited 5298d ago )

They don't really deserve anything, they basically said "Screw you, we're doing what we want" to the fans, so we're saying "knock yourselves out, but don't expect us to buy it".

It's because we are real fans that we're all outraged by this, It's not even DMC anymore its lost all of the appeal the old games had.

Imo, Capcom Invented Nero to replace Dante, but it didn't go as planed. Dante is just too much of an icon, which is why people are so pissed that they changed him the way they have.

F*** this guy and F*** this game!

I Lol'd, Thanks for making my day dude

Lord_Sloth5298d ago

You have to imagine for it to be a "re-imagining"! Tameem just looked in the fucking mirror!

UltimateIdiot9115298d ago

I don't think he went that far. He probably just google a picture of himself. If he looked in the mirror, the bang would be on the other direction.

Lord_Sloth5298d ago

Dude, that response is epic. 7 kinds of epic.

zerocrossing5298d ago

We all wanted to be Dante in DMC... but Tameem's just taking the piss.

earbus5298d ago (Edited 5298d ago )

I like the look needs to be more scummy characters like the show misfits, superhero low lifes rock, misfits makes heroes look like a fairy tale show.

r215298d ago

no offense to fans of the series but the game looks pretty good.

Run_bare5298d ago

I don't think it's the game, but Dante as a character that is the problem. I don't a reboot, or anything, BUT do not change his looks, beside, I don't think Dante can age as normal human does.

Capcom says it wants Mega Man, Devil May Cry, and Ace Attorney to be 'core IPs' like Monster Hunter

Sorry if you were expecting Bionic Commando.

ZeekQuattro74d ago

Actions speak louder than words. Show me a new Mega Man game that isn't a collection of games I played yesteryear. If they can churn out some kind of RE game every other year they can make a new Mega Man entry. It's not like it's known for its deep stories.

Christopher73d ago

I can see DMC, but the others just weren't built for that without some major adjustments on how they're played.

lukasmain73d ago (Edited 73d ago )

If they make the right choices and right kinds of games, the Mega-Man IP could potentially be made into an animated film or streaming series like the success of Mario and Sonic. Surely that thought may have crossed their minds? Or am I being silly? I mean there is a lot more water to go under the bridge for them to even start considering that. But I used to be a big mega-man fan back in the day. I'd love to see it happen.

It’s being done on purpose just to destroy inafune . It’s some pride stuff on the inside .

blacktiger73d ago

all talk and if they launch it will cost $200

shinXseijuro73d ago

Just like the guys said . I’ll believe it when I see it . Even the shareholders are asking questions regarding Megaman . I don’t want to sound ludacris but I have a strong conviction that the heads at Capcom are purposely holding the Megaman IP down because of their grudge and spite towards inafune on some deeper Japanese honour code stuff . It’s deeper than we think . You can tell something isn’t right .

VersusDMC73d ago

Well i hope DMC is being worked on. Either a remake of 1 or 6 will do.

And bring back Megaman X. Either regular, command mission or make it a Metroidvania since silksong is so popular.
