buster probably was inspired by gow's throws -- with those seed pod guys nero even does the kratos 'rip dudes in half' thing -- but it's much better balanced, in that you're vulnerable while you're doing it (not to mention that abusing it will kill your style rank). i dunno...grim grip just makes your combos perfectly fluid without any of those little gaps you get with dante, and the buster moves are hilarious. if you use it on the gold knights while dt'd you get zangief's final atomic buster. which is just awesome. and revving is really satisfying as well, particularly once you've got max act. dante obviously has tons of options, and gilgamesh can absolutely wreck bosses, but i find him hard to go back to. nero's just more fun. i'll be bummed if he isn't in dmc5 -- or at least his arm
