I'm most interested in seeing Spike in action.

@4

And they never will. You can thank Activision for that.

Sony does not know how to make a hype trailer at all.

If the pre-order skin for Dante isn't the classic look, then idk anymore... I no they can't ignore the new Dante since it will help promote the latest title, but they can't ignore the more iconic one either. All-Stars... It's in the title!

I love Dante and how he looks like he plays in this game...but am I the only person who believes he might be just a tad bit overpowered? Those combos were ridiculous! (not that I care lol, I'll still play as him)

So they go with what the fans DON'T WANT rather than what we want. Way to go Sony and Capcom for Dropping the ball on this crappy Dante, I guess is the only way Nariko can get into this game.
At least we still have Marvel vs Capcom 3.

Dante looks sick! Grown accustomed to his new still badass look. Hahaha, is that a Leonidas skin for Kratos?

Damn why did we have to get the crappy Dante? Why not the 2nd game or fourth Dante incarnation.

New Dante is in because they're promoting his new game.

Once Lara was dismissed, I lost interest. I'll wait to see what comes about with this game up until release before I consider.

@29

He may have used for a lot of PSOne commercials, but it's hard to think that Sony ever thought Crash as their mascot, especially since they never owned the rights to the character. It would have been like Nintendo making Mario their mascot, but his rights being owned by Konami.
