He seemed like a really cool guy in this article. Shame to see him go.

Just when it looked like he was going to get something accomplished with AA5 as well... here's hoping the next person will help us out with making sure less-popular franchises (read: not Resident Evil or Street Fighter) are treated decently in the West.

I dunno, wishful thinking? Though admittedly a few of their titles have been disappointments (especially Ninja Theory's cringe-worthy attempt at a DMC reboot). They have Monster Hunter IV on the horizon so they'll bounce back.

Capcom is a great developer. But they have lost their edge. Canceling MegaMan Legends 3. Not making a new Darkstalkers. Not releasing some sweet collections of their old beat um' up's is things people want. They are not releasing what fan's want. Remember Me... Ppppffftttt

I seriously don't get why the reboot of DmC is supposedly shite even though it's had rave reviews, especially in the UK and has done pretty well; sales-wise.

Then again, as they say, haters gonna hate, especially ones who are resistant to change in any shape or form!

well i hope his steping down wont mean the end of the new DMC.

though it would have been interesting if the two dante's have somehow met.
