Game looks great. Has a punk feel to it.

I hate you for putting a Linkin Park song in my head.

I am filled with distress at this trailer. This is the worst thing. Not even the fanboy "THAT ISN'T DANTE" rage, it's just... that's not him. It's so not him. Even in an ultra-prequel, it's just... not him. There's no style to his movements. No real energy or excitement. Even his flying earth punch wasn't really 'him'.

Looks more like a wannabe with delusions of being Dante. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the storyline of the game, too.

I'm with Nik. That guy is too much of a punk and street brawler to be Dante.

Really, I think this is the worst possible property to try to go the "dark and edgy" route with beacause it was already dark and edgy!

Aside from that, they already DID young Dante in DMC3. You know, one of the best ones!

Hahaha this looks so stupid. I mean, I've never been big on Capcom plots, but this seems to run in the wrong-ass direction. I mean, seriously? Subject insert number what is your name blah blah blah is so overdone, moronic, and impossible to take seriously, though they seem to be trying their best. I'll give it a shot, but I never was big on God of War, and from what I hear the gameplay of Heavenly Sword was largely ripped off that, so I fear that this game will be a much different kind of action game than I'm interested in. The character doesn't act or look like Dante. Yes, his behavior has been different throughout the games, but looking at them chronologically you can at least imagine some sort of progression from snarky college boy to a bit older, more mature Dante, and finally to a brooding hero. This just feels out of place, and retconning Dante's hair color to make him look younger is just really silly.

As I pointed out to a friend who showed me a screencap of the trailer, there's a point in the cinematic where Dante is firing his guns with his arms outstretched in opposite directions. But he doesn't have his finger on the trigger.

Also- not made by capcom. like 3 of the guys from the original team on it, but not made by Capcom. This is Heavenly Sword bullshit.

Edit: This is like Other M what the fuck

Naw, the terrible writing in Other M is the fault of Sakamoto, and Other M was his true vision for what Samus should be like. I know the comparison you're trying to make, and Other M totally shit all over Samus' character, but the terrible writing in that one is entirely Nintendo's fault.

What. The fuck?!

I... I don't even know where to start, so I'm just gona sigh and not bother. I guess the curse of the even numbered sequels has been broken?

I blame Bayonetta for throwing everything off.
