DMC released this artwork recently, depicting the new Dante being doted upon by a chorus of half-naked angel girls in shiny, skintight underwear

My take on this is basically what I said on the glorious Instant Messenging Thingamer:
also, angels, definitely wear silver lamé bootyshorts VERY biblical AND THUS DID THE ANGEL GABRIEL DESCEND. LO, HE WAS A HOT CHICK, AND HE WAS WEARING BOOTY SHORTS. AND THE BOOTY SHORTS DID SPARKLE WITH THE SPANDEX MIGHT OF GOD.
The finger gun is problematic from a violent perspective and a sexual one, to boot. Cause. Well, young scrawny man, where precisely have the artists chosen to put that gunfinger of yours? I get the message from this loud and clear.
In related news, I really hate stealthy boob cover shots (as evidenced by a full half of the ladies in said piece of art). If you want to take the very low road and entice your audience with the allure of breasts (or butts, we've also got 50% butt action here) just go for it. Be honest. Be Dragon Age's desire demons or something. Although even they have pasties. (REALLY NOW. What kind of demon wears pasties? What kind of an angel wears booty shorts? I think I quit.)
hahaha what is going on in the first picture, those angels are missing rollerskates. Not that the series doesn't indulge in tackiness but this just looks stupid.
I still have to wonder why Capcom chose Ninja Theory, out of countless other developers to handle this franchise. Their aesthetic, gameplay mechanics, cinematics, their EVERYTHING is the complete opposite of Devil May Cry.
I think it's obvious this game is marketed to the cheif designer, Tameem Antoniades, considering what the guy looks like. I wouldn't be surprised if he posed for the artwork.
1UP: So you say that you've never had a chance to work on one of your own sequels. Was this a result of you wanting new challenges and deciding not to work on your own sequels, or was it an order issued from managerial types at Capcom for you to work on something else while someone else worked on a sequel

Ugh, I'm not a fan of desire demons either, but I too think that's better than this fucked-up boob coverage in an obviously sexual picture.
I just want to knock some teeth out.
