Well I can totaly see why people get upset over a charachter change. They should have introduced a new charachter in stead. I mean if they gave Kratos Hair or took off Master Cheif's helmet. Just sayin i would be pissed

Donell, you sir are quite the character. Also kudos to Steve Johnson. Trollin in the real lifes.

P.S. If I had a time machine, I would go to that trailer parked alone on empty farm land, and I'd go inside the trailer and show young lonely Blair Herter a picture of gorgeous Jessica Chobot as she looks now, a little glimpse that the future looks bright.

I loved "Rumor . . . Or Is It?" That should become a regular segment. This was a very fun panel.
NikoleZ, Please continue doing double-duty, off camera and on camera.
Feedback has been very entertaining since the new lineup with Blair moderating and Nikole producing. Excellent shows lately. Thank you!

I just wanted to say something about why you guys are wrong about the reason most people are mad about DMC. To be honest i think the reason that they are mad (and i'm a fan too) is not so much because of his hair, it has to do with the way they are changing the game. One thing that i hate the most is what they are doing with the story because they said it was a prequel then now they are saying it's a story in a parallel universe, and on another note the main reason why DMC4 failed was because we had to play with Nero who the heck cares about him, the fans of DMC wanted to play Dante the original guy with attitude character with his story, which by the way i hope you guys knew this but Dante was never an Angel he has always been half human half devil. The sad part about all of this is that I wish they would only change story but they are changing the gameplay too, from 60fps to 30fps, to lame combos that i seen that are not impressive is just such a let down, i mean DmC was a reason hack n slash games became what they are now, and now to go down to this level just makes someone that cared a lot about this franchise be seriously be mad, but to me I am more disappointed then mad. Then again this generation Capcom has been a major let down overall, and i still believe to myself that they might do something good but hey at least i can dream

BRAVO BRAVO! What the four of you wonderfully talented people managed to pull off is nothing short of amazing. You took a week of essentially nothing in the way of notable gaming news and turned it into an engaging, informative and most importantly entertaining episode. Well Done ladies and gentlemen.
Donell, don't let them call you the "Black Geoff Kiehley", that's an insult, you are far cooler. I respect Jeff and the Gametrailers crew, but Donell "you the Man."
Nicole, you seem to grow bolder and more comfortable with each episode, Well done. I thought the theory of piracy becoming an easy scapegoat was insightful. You've become an invaluable and welcomed part of the Feedback crew. And best of all you look like you're having fun. What's better than getting paid to talk about games?
With regard to the death threats, I think people need to relax, and not to sound old but Shame, Shame. That type of response is not only childish and inappropriate it's also dangerous. As if there isn't enough hatred and cruelty in the world, people actually send death threats over a game. Talk about 1st world problems. Sadly I think it's just another example of people acting like children on the internet. People somehow lose all basic civility when engaging with one another anonymously. Instead of constructive criticism you get incoherent, sophomoric and often hurtful rambling. I guess it just seems counterproductive to me.
But now I'm the one rambling. Blair you have done the impossible. You've made Feedback your own. Great job. I tip my hat. This episode was fantastic. A game of guessing rumors turns out to be the highlight of show, because the assembled crew has a vast knowledge of the gaming world and clearly enjoys their jobs, it shows.
GREAT WORK

The game that Blair was thinking about was Karate Champ as the game where Clay pots fly at you and Donnel was rembering the side scrolling beat up game Kung Fu. Both I still own.
Their earliest game memories make me feel old...I remember life before video games aka the "dark energy ages". Then at the age of 3 or 4 I took over Pong from my older brothers.

Dante has been a character that been around for years. really never left unchanged. Why is it weird for a community to be upset about an iconic figure to that specific community to be changed into some black haired guy that looks very close to the producer. i think it would be better just to not call the character Dante and just call him something else. and its not just a hairstyle its his whole face, wardrobe everything, its like saying lets change mario to look like wario and still call him mario
