I just hope Stephanie Meyer doesn't decide to reboot her crappy Mary-Sue vampire series.

that would be awesome, I might actually disregard the monstrosity of Mary Sue's love if edward and vampires looked like this.

the thing with reboots...is that they don't usually work, I understand the nature of a reboot if the series is loosing or something, but not with so many fans that like the protagonist, why give them a giant middle finger?
when did a reboot increase the popularity of an already popular series?

I think some reboots are nesissary. Take Star Trek for example. Rick Berman and his team have seriously F**ked up the continuity starting with Generations. And it only got worse from there *Cough* Enterprise *Cough*. However with J.J. Abrams' new Star Trek movie, we have a chance to so our favoret characters in the spotlight again and this time with a whole new sluth of adventures. Reboots have been around for a while now and I'm not sure when they became popular. I think maybe that the mass public wants to see their favoret show/movies/games again and that 50% of those will be successful being rebooted.

Someone posted that on Joystiq in the comments section. "Harder edged" indeed.

If it weren't for that damn tzimisce, you'd still be looking under rocks for us!

I'm not gonna lie i got mixed feelings about this game, he smokes now so thats a plus for me, statistics still show you are 30% cooler when you smoke. But after seeing how much he looks like the producer/director douche bag I'm really not cool with that..

[Kale]

Same... but if it plays well, then whatever, I don't go into it for the main char's looks or the story. The only Dante I thought were cool was 1 and 2 anyway.

Ninja Theory is making it, so chances are it won't play that well (in comparison to the other games, atleast)

[Lumas]

I havent played any of their other games so I cant really make an opinion on it, though I must say thats pretty lame they would redesign the lead character to look like the lead producer. And here I thought I was a narcissist .

Fantastic Four is being rebooted too, everything's getting rebooted nowadays. Makes you wonder how Harry Potter managed to survive this long.

I don't think the act of rebooting is as bad as that, now, they aren't even waiting decades to reboot things. You mentioned Fantastic Four, which is a good example. They are doing it with Spider-Man too(another movie, which will take a more darker, realistic, gritty Nolan-wannabe take on our classic web slinger). They did it with the Hulk. Though, who knows, give a couple years and they might just jump back into the fray and reboot all the Harry Potter movies, the Saw movies, the LotR trilogy, and Superbad.

it appears Capcom KNEW that we longtime DMC fans wouldn't like the knew design and basically didn't give a d*mn 
way to alianate the original DMC fans Capcom and basically give us the middle finger after 10 years of dedication to the series

[Kale]

Well, like I said. If it plays good I'll play. Since I never gave a damn about the story or characters anyway. But if I have to sit through all the excruciating cutscenes... someone's gonna die.

so let me get this straight
you only play DMC because of the gameplay?
lol your a totally different gamer then me dude because i honestly like Story and plot in my games and will not play a game if a hate the characters and story itself

[Kale]

I love story... I play lots of games for story... just not DMC, and maybe some other games. As I hate Dante's guts after the first game... well second game, but I never got into the 2nd game to truly judge.
