Devil May Cry - Reboot

[KaijuSapian]

Maybe we will see some gameplay footage soon then I might change my mind. Right now, I really don't like how this game looks so far.

Is it mainly just Dante's redesign you don't like?

I don't like the western look it so far. The logo for the game has that Hip Hop look to it, and the music used in the trailer is pretty crappy. I was hoping that DMC5 will return to dark, gritty, and gothic style that Devil May Cry 1 & 3 had, and take place after Devil May Cry 2 or 4 left off.

....American Hip-Hop? I quite honestly don't know where your getting that from. The logo? Maybe, I just thought it was trying to go for that blood or inky-look. But a lot of titles do that lately, that doesn't make it exclusively hip-hop.
Dante, and for that matter and the music itself, seem to be going for a European Punk-Rock feel. In fact its quite obvious. If you look at this Dante's coat, the left sleeve, you'll the Great Britain flag is patched on (around when he says "My name is Dante"). The haircut and everything about this seem to support that notion. I don't know where people are getting American. Or Emo... Or Hipster....

I'm not trying to call crap on your opinion or anything, but I've notice that a lot complaints about this new Dante seem somewhat unjustified or just plain biased. If you don't have initial good feelings, that's fine, but give it a chance. It's only the first trailer after all.

Heavenly Sword was not good.

New Dante looks like shit.

No reason to reboot, other than to make it more "Western"

skreeonk off Capcom.

Dante in the new game has a different face then he did in the past few game, and I don't like the music played in the trailer as well. What happen to the metal, and hard rock music that was in the past four games?

My lord, you are picky.

I think it's refreshing to see them do something different with a franchise that has become so formulaic in terms of gameplay IMO.

[miguelnuva]

well if it's a reboot maybe the next game can be old dante vs new dante or a co-op mode like that.

Yes, thank you. I too actually commend Capcom for taking a chance and experimenting with this franchise.

Besides, doesn't anyone remember that the creator of DMC Hideki Kamiya no longer works for Capcom? He's with Platinum games now. Best Capcom not go ahead and use his creation without his guidance. I'd think fans would actually be glad they're rebooting the series in respect for Kamiya.

Agree since why fix something that is not broken?

You're right, I shouldn't of just said not good, its down right shitty.

Is it normal that I was able to get a PC copy of DMC4 for $6?

Some possible Details Leaked?

So I guess the DMC fanbase refers to this Dante as Dino (Dante in name only). Which honestly irks me, it just makes the fanbase come across as being waaaaay too conservative, PMSing crybabies. It's not as if Ninja Theory is doing with Dante what Tristar did with Godzilla. The character has main standards he needs to meet 1)needs to be a cool and stylish combatant with an inhuman prowess 2)is able to use a variety of weapons in an effective and stylish manner 3)wears a red coat of some sort. This Dante has these characteristics, so as far as I'm concerned this representation isn't unfaithful to the character.

Ya new Dante actually looks cooler to me, I think it's the darker hair, but I think he looks like a cool dude. Certainly looks pretty badass when he's in action. I never really liked old Dante that much anyways.

[Gigan X3]

I like the new Dante, but I'm a sucker for white hair, exactly the way how Classic Dante sports it, so it's obvious who I prefer.

[Hellspawn28]

I would not be surprise if you can unlock Dante from 1, 3, and 4 as a unlockable skin at the end of the game.

I will laugh so hard if this is true.

[Hellspawn28]

We still don't know anything about the story so far. As much I hate Dante's look, I still want to see some gameplay and story info first.

[Gigan X3]

There's a new trailer and it looks kinda cool, I like how Dante's hair turns white somehow, that's something.

Here is the new trailer from E3:

Looks okay. I really don't like the choice of music that was pick for the game.
