DmC: Devil May Cry

DmC (Devil May Cry) is easily one of the most divisive games of this generation. Capcom released yet another trailer yesterday at New York Comic Con and as expected, the youtube comments have become another power struggle between those who hate the new direction and those who have embraced it. I of course, have been very vocal about my support of the game but I understand why many of you are upset.

Luckily (for me), it appears that Capcom has stopped catering to fan boys by compromising their original vision; something I have been very worried about since the initial backlash. Instead, they have opted to retaliate with a pretty hefty marketing campaign. Hopefully, throwing enough marketing dollars at the game will be enough to offset the inevitable losses that will be incurred thanks to all the negative nancys that have already jumped ship. 

The new trailer won't do much to win anyone back but for those of us who are excited already, it supplies an adequate amount of hype. The trailer is perfect for someone like me: I love stylistic action, demons, and ear-bleeding metal music! Of course, I know that last part may turn many of you off but you cant please everybody. Atleast many of you can sleep again knowing that the project is starting to feel a little bit more like classic Devil May Cry. Enjoy! (or don't)

    It looks awesome, I hope they deliver on the combat but so far I am really liking how this is turning out!

    While I prefer the original DMC I am a huge fan of ninja theory and all the projects they have done so far and I know I will enjoy this title. A definite buy for me

    I'm not that happy with the changes but if the game is good then I'll be happy, Ninja Theory is a good studio so I'm sure they will surprise me.
