I was googling around and somehow I found myself drift through various links to DeviantArt, and some user had uploaded this slightly altered picture of the magazine there. I lost the link now... I guess I could dig it up again if I tried.

I have not found any translations... I could do some if I had the Japanese article, but since I haven't found that either (that pic I found is so shiny and small that it's hard to read), I can't do it. Argh, someone just scan the darn article nice and clean for us---!

I can't say for sure since the picture is so small, but there is the possibility. Haha, if it is Tameem, then the picture is almost cute for the lack of better word, seeing how he sits in front of the guy working on with Dante on the screen. (And I'm in a kidding mood here; them who don't like Tameem shouldn't start wild ideas regarding what I just said). xD
Right now, Tameem Antoniades has a sidecut hairstyle now, as seen in the most recent interviews. It looks nothing like Dante's hairstyle anymore (not that I thought it looked like Dante's hairstyle before either, but some people like to read too much into it at times)...

dude the image is pretty small and it looked as if they have the same hairstyle even the circling and arrow's suggest to that.
Well, then they have used an old picture.

I heard Tameem had cut his hair to look a bit like Dante's AFTER the design for Dante had been made. I wonder was the people bullying the poor man enough to make him cut his hair again into this most recent style...

maybe.but they were at their studio last week or 2 week's ago why would they take an old pic rather than just take it right there?
Probably. People on the internet can be overly cruel for no reason.
Now that I look at the picture, it does look like Tameem with his NEW haircut. As you can see on the picture I posted above, he has his hair ultra short in one side, and that's also the side we see in the magazine-picture that Kammo posted. I still don't think it looks like Dante's hairstyle though.
On a completely other note, I would love to get that render with Dante holding the guns. ^^

People on the internet is not being cruel to Tameem Antoniades for no reason. Tameem quotes:
"We've got our plan and we're not changing it"
Comment to above: Yes, you got your plan but shouldn't you at least try to include fans' input? Tameem showing that he's ignorant. The fact that Tameem Antoniade's ideas for the game has been put into the game shows that the center of ideas for DmC is from Tameem's perspective.
"The people who are skeptical secretly want to like it. And it's our job to prove that it's Devil May Cry in essence"
Comment to above: So your so arrogant that you think i want to like something that you made?
“Personally, I don’t. I love the game. I think it’s awesome. It’s taken everything — it’s just gone to a total extreme. But in terms of, ‘Do I think it’s cool?’ No, not at all. I think it’s caricatured and over-the-top and very ‘Japanesey,’ and for that absurd style it does that really well, but that’s not what I want."
Comment to above: Ok, so your saying that Japanese game artists who draw concept art have a absurd style? That japanese art style is not better than western and more realistic style?
“The essence of Devil May Cry is all about ‘cool. It’s about Dante being cool and making you feel cool when you’re playing it, and so the combat and the style system and everything is integral to that. But, you know, what was cool 12 years ago — I think that was when the first game came out — isn’t cool anymore. If Dante, dressed as he was, walked into any bar outside of Tokyo, he’d get laughed out. What Devil May Cry did when it launched was it brought everything that was great about action cinema like the fashion, music — it was like a cultural melting pot — and I feel like now, for Devil May Cry to have that same impact, it needs to draw on new things. New music, new ways of cinematography, new fashion.”
Comment to above: He says that original Dante is not cool. That if he walks into a bar he will get laughed out. It's funny because Dante is one of the coolest gaming characters. I wonder what Tameem has to say about the character his company has made called "Monkey". Will he also get laughed out or will the japanese people in the bar say "Wow look at that cool guy".
DmC's Dante resemblance to Tameem Antoniades
DmC's Dante looks like a copy of Tameem Antoniades if he were cool.
Dante smokes - Tameem Smokes
Dante is has british flag on jacket - guess who is british === Tameem
Dante receives black hair colour - Tameem has black ; why not blond or brown hair? I thought the idea of DmC Dante was to attract Western audience.
Dante hairstyle in first trailer looked just like Tameems.
You guys can go on saying "Tameem is a poor guy" and so on. But i rather be critical. Because he comes off as a disrespectful, egomaniac and arrogant person.
Also did you know that Ninja theory was gonna possibly expand their studio to two game studio? But because Enslaved sold so little they couldn't and Ninja theory was in a danger zone of dieing out. Tameem said that they might make a Enslaved sequel if things went well, and that DMC assignment was a "second chance".
I hope Ninja theory dies out and Capcom looses respect and loads of money with DmC project. DMC series gameplay, story, artstyle and characters are great. The ONLY flaw i see in DMC serie's is the INCONSISTENT storyline. Instead of making the DMC storyline more consistent, they rebooted DMC. And instead of working on DMC hardware they choose their own hardware (unreal engine) because of "the pretty graphics".
Make a new game
If you think original Dante is not cool or Bayonetta artstyle is absurd. Go back up your words and make a new game.
Don't be assholes and take over someone else's work and approach the project with ignoring fans, disrespecting the main character, being arrogant etc.

You have already discussed all that in your own thread. Keep it there. We are chatting about Tameem's hair in the magazine picture above, not why some people dislike him. So please, at least try and stay on topic when you are throwing all your hate around.

And how are you staying on topic when you say:
And i am on topic. That Famitsu picture with Dante in computer and Tameem working on computer looks pretty alike. You must be blind not to see that. The huge post i made is just simply a reply to the quote of you i highlighted.
