But we’ve already seen Mistral and Monsoon’s ability in the past trailers. We just didn’t know their names.

It doesn’t show much we already didn’t know. Although only Sundowner was the one we rarely saw in the previous trailers. Still not even that clear what his special ability is….6 movable….tile-arms?

Then you don’t know Snake….

No a VERY bad situation was after DMC2. 4 was Good at best, just not as great as 3. I thought Nero’s grappling and sword revving gameplay was pretty interesting and fun.

In a perfect world, Capcom would’ve manned up and give back all of Kamiya’s IPs. Then we’d get Okami 2, more Viewtiful Joe and better DMC games. but alas…..

BUT WHO WILL IT CHOOSE?

*cue dramatic music*

freaking agree :D

don’t want to be spoiled by it :)

Actually, DMC4 is the highest selling DMC game. About 2 million copies.

The reboot happened because Capcom still wasn’t satisfied and wanted to bring new fans to the series. Nothing forced them to piss off the old fans in the process—that’s all on them.

Wait until you play it, the demo at 60 FPS was gorgous

“Leave it with the original creators”

All the more reason to leave it in the hands of P* and Hideki Kamiya…

I don’t think the franchise really needed a reboot either. I mentioned in another article, but I really view DmC as a spin-off.

I’m hoping Capcom does as well, I think another Devil May Cry game with the original cast would be fun.

Oh really sorry my mistake. Assumed it did badly but In any case i really dont think P* should be left in charge of the series. Either Leave it with the original creators or Ninja Theory to continue the ‘alternate universe’ story.

How was 4 a flop when it sold more than the prior games? The only problems with it were what DarthBrian mentioned. You still won’t find a better combat engine.

Its a business risk in of its self to continue to persue a series which is selling less and less with each addition to the fanchise. Hence the reboot to bring new customers.
