Title: This is why I'm not that excited about DMC4

Why even invent a new main character if he's going to look exactly like the old one?

I heard there is a plot twist regarding his similar look to Dante and Vergil, didn't read the spoilers so no idea.

also, reason for a new character according to Hiroyuki Kobayashi:

This is the first time that Xbox users will play a DMC game: will it be fully enjoyable from the people that never played the previous games?
 
I definitely think so. As you know DMC4 features Nero, a brand new character to the series so both newcomers to the series and those who have played any of the previous titles will have the opportunity to master his unique skills and abilities. At the beginning of the game we have also included a brief tutorial to familiarise players with Nero’s basic actions.

I love how people assume that if you're playing it on the 360 you've never played DMC before.

That will only be the case when you also buy the clearly-superior Games for Windows edition in 2009. Which may or may not have mouse support.

Yeah, Nero is either Dante's brother, his son, or his nephew, I bet.  He looks way too similar not to be related.

Another subset of Big Boss' distinguished mentally-challenged offspring.

lol - agreed.

actually, if you played the series on the PS2 you are probably still in a state of "Wtf is this fucking garbage?!?!" from DMC2.


Yup.

But DMC3 is the only one that was released on PC, right?  So of course everyone played it on PS2 before.  I loved the original, was turned off by the horrible, horrible sequel, and really haven't touched DMC3.  Got the SE too and still never touched it.  I know I'm going to get DMC4 though.

So is it Nero or Vergil?

If I get this I think it'll be on PS3.

Who am I kidding. The PS3 needs to stay on 24/7 for Folding, 360 it is

DMC is so awesome.

And it's some obvious twist...I bet Nero is Vergil's kid or something.
