Game developer Hideki Kamiya of Platinum Games and recent Bayonetta fame will field just about any question on Twitter, whether he’s well-versed on a topic or not. Something he knows a ton about? Devil May Cry games. Kamiya was the director on the original Devil May Cry back in 2001 and a very good authority on what makes a Devil May Cry game great.

Enough of these tweets. I'll block those. RT @Brad_D80 Ninja Theory is a bunch of egoist hacks that put their childish crap before making a
