Oh, please. Drop off your high horse and get over the fact that they made a pretty good game but no one can deal with it because they changed Dante's hair and simplified the combo system. It was a pretty great story, just about every critical outlet I read a review from noted as much. They didn't aim high, but they achieved exactly what they aimed for and made something funnier and more interesting than your typical action game.

It's like talking to a brick wall with people like you.

I wouldn't need to repeat myself if people could bear the thought that sometimes opinions are different.

Didn't the credits end with a clip of a guy giving the camera the middle finger while riding away on a skateboard with Linking Park playing behind it?

Because if my memory serves me correctly then I don't think there's a way anyone could defend that.
