Greatest game character:14 Jan 11


Well, you saw this coming. For a best game character today on 14 jan, we have none other than capcom's hack and slash icon, dante from the devil may cry series. Dante is the new word to describe "badass", anyone who played his game will know that.

NO ONE CAN COMPARE TO DANTE IN HIS OWN SERIES. Everyone in the series, he has pwned and made a fool out of them, MOCKING THEM. He 's trashed mundus, single handedly took down the savior, flicked nero away like a fly, and beat the crap out of countless badass bosses like beowolf, greyon and berial, just to name a few. His only equal in the series itself is probably vergil.



Yep, even a big badass 3 headed dog like this is nothing but a mere puppy to Dante.
.
I'll say it, dante is pretty damn cocky. Everytime before he starts to get into a fight with a big boss, he starts off insulting that boss and make smarty-ass comments to further piss off the already angry boss. Still, though he wins all the time, this could get him into trouble, if he runs into someone really strong. BUT STILL, this is part of his personality and one of the aspects that make him an awesome character.
.
His personality itself is very outgoing. He's pretty damn straightfoward in everything, and he's probably a pretty cool guy. He loves babes, he loves to kill demons, he loves to act cool and he's downright powerful to boot, but if the time calls for it, he can even be a typical hero who ends up saving the day.

Dante's so badass, he ROCKS enemies to death with his guitar, Nevan.
.
Dante's arsenal of weapons, up to date with his latest game, should be enourmous. He has gained a crapload of weapons through his carrier, and I haven't even played DMC 2 to know if he even got weapons from that game. His trademark weapons should be rather easy to identify, his sword rebellion, and his twin pistols, ebony and ivory. He has other weapons, but i won't mention them all, there really are too many.
.
Well there are a few notable ones, one of which is agni and rudra. These are twin fire blades that can be mass comboed into mass multi-hitting at huge crowds. Then theres the all so epic nevan, the gutair that's own rifts are able to cause surges of bats and electricity to the enemies. Theres also artemis, a chargable arm cannon thats able to hit multiple enemies. Theres also lucifer, which spurts explosive needles on enemies and cause them to explode all at once. Pandora is a badass weapon as well, disguising itself as a suitcase, it actually is a multi-morphing weapon, which can change from a gattling gun, to a saw blade, to a rocket launcher and a missle base!

You DO NOT fuck with Dante.


Dante is the king of ass kicking, and also the king of doing it in style. Even his personality is kick ass. If you haven't played a DMC game, shame on you, go play it now (expect DMC 2, I heard it sucked). Personally I like DMC 4 dante best, he's towards his mid-thirties, though abit old, it still shows that he hasn't lost it, and that he can still beat the shit out of anyone he wants to. Nero, whose devil arm was able to lift statues 30-40 times his size, and able to deflect hits from the false savior, is no slouch thanks to his arm. BUT, even with an arm like that, when he tried to punch dante with it, he just grabbed that devil arm with his bare hand! Thats how strong he is, its just raw strenght alone!

Dante is freaking awesome, but in the upcoming DmC theres really nothing for me to say....since that dante is not the dante we all know and love.....I hope. Lets just all hope that the new dante turns out to be some crazy DMC deprived freak who played too much DMC and thinks he's dante.

Patiently awaiting the next REAL DMC game, hopefully a DMC 5, not some damn reboot or spinoff. Oh yeah, and I have to mention dante is in shin megami tensei:nocturne too, as a boss and later obtainable as a demon. Now thats a good way to promote an awesome character.
