"6 Reasons Ninja Theory Will Revitalise Devil May Cry" - IGN

Am I the only one noticing a trend here? The people who are for DmC are saying the article was well done, but the people against DmC are saying it was horrible or cringe-worthy.
Guys, isn't it obvious it was made for someone who is actually FOR this game? It's written on the title! Six ways it'll fix Devily May Cry, not 6 Opinions on DmC (which would be a very interesting article, actually). So, yeah, it's a little biased. But that's because it's an opinion, not much of an article where they show the news (aka: facts...the complete opposite of opinion).
Me, I didn't find the post amazing but I didn't find it cringe-worthy. I took it as someone saying what good things are in there.
Now, if they made a post with more opinions on how the game is so far, that would be pretty interesting...

It does seem like that just because someone is saying something positive about it, people are throwing sticks and stones at it.

Ooooor! People for DmC are biased toward it and people against DmC are biased against it. People are just as quick to like something in support of DmC as others are to knock it for the same reason. Just about everyone is biased and doesn't like it when people feel differently about DmC then they do. Sad....'tis very sad.

OOOOOR! Maybe it's IGN? Because let's face it people...it's IGN. I mean come on. It isn't uncommon for them to write BS articles that kiss butts. Perhaps the reason people who don't like DmC dislike the article is because they see the butt-kissing while pro-DmC members only see it as an article supporting DmC and so like it?

Food for thought...

That's exactly what I meant Meg xD
For all you know, it could be this person really likes DmC or Ninja Theory or Capcom's choice and they're writing this (admittedly biased) thread (I wouldn't call it an article)? It doesn't have to be a conspiracy, you know.

It could be either way....

I will admit that.

But I wonder if the so called "supporters" could admit that this article may be the same type of BS articles IGN has been putting out for years...

Hmm...in my time watching IGN, I've only seen maybe a small percent of articles that are BS, many opinionated articles, multiple news articles, and a ton of reviews xD I don't know. I just look into there for some exclusive news they may have.

Not really, As i'm for this game and didnt neccessarily found it great.

i think it would have been better if the author had told us his DMC expierence.

plus this article is a little too premature as we havent played anything yet.

this would have been better timed to come out at gamescon or captivate 2012.

Isn't that exactly what they are getting paid for to write, actually? IGN, Gamepro, OPM, basically anything in Metacritics listing, really, ismainly there to appraise a game from an unbiased point of view. Seeing how IGN is biased towards a multitude of games, as we have surely noticed in the past, this article is taken for complete bullshit as well.
Funny though. What would happen if someone more believable would have written that article?
In my experience, though the DMC-fans don't trust anyone with a positive opinion of this game, in IGN's case this might be understandable, but Eventstatus has put them in such a relentless fury, that not even Metastats matter anymore.
This is just sad.

Woah wait a second IGN were the same people who said dark souls would be better than skyrim
when it comes down to reviews ign are reliable when you
balance the writer review with the user review
but when it comes to articles I go straight to cracked.com

so here are my reasons it's gonna suck
1. No Dante
Dante has been the protagonist of devil may cry since the first and even during 4 Dante was one of the main protagonist and dante has always been about cool and that's what this new Dante is supposed to be according to tameem
in other words this new Dante says smoking (one of the easiest ways to get cancer) is cool
2. Unreal engine
unreal is great for shooters but when it comes down to hack and slash , the outcome will be terrible
and I have to remind you that it ports terribly to ps3 ( luckily I own a 360 and a ps2 to play 3 and 4) majority of the dmc games were for ps2
3. Demon and angel mode
tameem said that certain weapons were exclusive to demon mode sand certain weapons to angel mode
as far as I can tell that means ”you haz t0 g0 into d3v1l tr1gger to us3 c3rtain w3apons n00b l0l0l"

As far as ninja theory is concerned all 3 of these complaints are
about the hair
indeed

Not trying to convince you, that I am right and you're not, but that's my take on your reasons.
But u are right, this game is going 2 FAIL. But dont forget the guy who made DMC is coming out with Metal Gear Rising and it look's 100x better then dmc.

Did they forget about DMC4? That was way more cinematic than the previous games. :/



...



NO ONE CARES



Wow they are missing the point...? It's not that we don't think Dante went through a lot of **** to develop into the character we know and love, but the fact that he looks like a piece of **** loser that's trying way too hard to be a badass. He just looks and acts like a douche bag. And again, if we wanted to see rebellious teen!Dante we would just toss in DMC3 ffs.



pffff if that's the opinion then create a new game, don't destroy something everyone else loves to have YOUR way
alternatively
PLAY A DIFFERENT ******* GAME

*sigh* that was hurtful to read :c
I mean jegus I can't believe anyone would call that article "good" or "well done"
AMEN

Hi, welcome to the fandom, you must be new.
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.
Also, so totally not trying to pick a fight or anything, but since it seems you disapprove of DmC, why don't just ignore and stick to the original canon storyline?

Anyways, regardless of what some site or magazine says, shouldn't players/fans determine what games are worth to them? Since it seems like this article isn't worth giving credit to, it's probably better to, in a sense of it, take this article with a grain of salt.

I've been hearing the "grain of salt" line for the past few hours! :eek: It's ticking me off.

Sorry 'bout that, English isn't my first language so I couldn't think of anything better.

But, if it's known that IGN isn't credible for reviews, why give them credit for this?

It's okay xD It was just a really weird coincidence.

Though I'm excited for DmC, IGN has a nack (or long, long history) of being unreliable. Not going to trust anything they can't support or show. I did kinda enjoy there "Fanboys May Cry" joke though.

ONE WORD --- BIASED review done by someone who never played single dmc game

IGN*under the table*
That would make it an UNbiased review. Since a review done by someone who has no feelings or influence either way, would not be affected. A biased review would be from someone who is influenced by either side. Hence, the UN.

Well three things that can affect you:
1) You dislike DmC
2) You like DmC
3) Your a Ninja theory fan
4) Your a Capcom fan

I would say that article is nr 3. It doesn't help that IGN had the first video of a real gameplay video of DmC.

Although, this interview was the first time I found out Hideaki Itsuno was still on board with the project.
