Although the Devil May Cry series helped invent the spectacle fighter subgenre and laid the foundation for modern hack-and-slash games, it may be best known for its stylish protagonist Dante. Dante's iconic white hair, red coat, and cocky attitude made an impact on fans from the very beginning. His attitude and flashy weapons mixed so well with Devil May Cry's high-octane and risk/reward gameplay that he's become an important part of gaming history. Despite this, Capcom won't stop trying to reinvent the wheel.
