    I don't like it much either. Dante traded in the cocky reassurance of his previous interations for that smartass looking punk-kid look.

    I was going to say they made Dante into Nero, but Nero was actually cool and likable. This new Dante... eh.

    Oh well, I have to see what else the devs have up their sleeves. Now I want Capcom to do Onimusha 5.

    I'm not sure which would be best...
    Devil May Cry 5 - Rise of Emo Dante or simply
    Emo May Cry.

    As spiderman3 showed us, nothing boosts a franchise like turning your hero into a weeping emo. ;)

    It's an entire reboot, so the Nero we know from DMC4 is not coming back. Who knows, there might be an expy named Nero with a magical arm.

    It's NOT a Devil May Cry 5.
    Someone fix the ing headline.

    It's a god damn prequel. Not 5th game on the series.
    Also, new "Dante" is a hipster faggot.

    "The chronological order of the Devil May Cry series does not follow the release order of the games".
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil_May_Cry

    This is the 5th to be released to we can call it 5.

    It's not good what they did with Dante, but if you want the old style, play one of the older games, I just recently played DMC3 again.

    isn't this the the series were u fight for 5 minutes then you reach a checkpoint or load screen?

    After watching a couple of vids of previous DMC's the gameplay somewhat reminds me of Kingdom Hearts.
