dante ? i`d still hit it/her

 

[Speevy]

In...Death by Degrees?

 

[Spiderjericho]

She looks cute in the hand drawn art...but the hair is eh in the model. Can't wait to play the game though.

 

[HK-47]

Danta

 

[Blablurn]

the artworks looks badass!

 

[Relix]

Man the concept art looked hot. The CG not so much

 

[Jamesfrom818]

She reminds me of those Gundam girls.

 

[ZealousD]

She looks cute in the hand drawn art...but the hair is eh in the model.

Her lips are enormous too.

 

[Majmun]

Looks like Rachel with a different hairstyle.

 

[HugBasket]

I like the bangs, they cover up her massive forehead.

 

[Wollan]

I'm pretty sure Tecmo has a generator with like five different parts for head, hairstyles, outfits..etc.

 

[Oneself]

Man the concept art looked hot. The CG not so much

In CG, she looks like every videogame "badass" girl.

 

[cws]

Her lips are enormous too.

where`s the problem ?

 

[urk]

Sharp knees.

 

[Relix]

In CG, she looks like every videogame "badass" girl.

They need to work on the hair, the lips and maybe the chin.

 

[WHOAguitarninja]

Looks like Rachel with a different hairstyle.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was.

 

[ZealousD]

where`s the problem ?

They aren't around my hey-oh!

 

[Dead Prince]

Needs to be tighter so the nipples show.

 

[Skilletor]

Didn't the original NG have some CIA storyline as well?

She looks stupid as hell, btw. Horrible.

 

[CosmicGroinPull]

Man the concept art looked hot. The CG not so much

Yep, yep.

 

[ymmv]

Funny how she has bigger breasts in the final CGI model ...

 

[Y2Kev]

That's definitely Rachel in disguise or something. And not a very good disguise.

 

[badcrumble]

I was worried that there werent going to be tits.

 

[Callibretto]

the cg model didn't even look like the concept art outside the costume, the hair is different, the eye is totally different, and I like how they cover one eye in the concept art, they could at least do the same with the cg model, at least it will make it a little bit more unique than current model.

 

[ZealousD]

I was worried that there werent going to be tits.

In a Team Ninja game?

You were worried?

 

[GCQuinton]

Didn't the original NG have some CIA storyline as well?

She looks stupid as hell, btw. Horrible.

Yeah, Irene and Foster.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Whoa!! And we get to play with those Bazookas and shit?

 

[Majmun]

GIVE ME MY RACHEL BACK

 

[Relix]

GIVE ME MY RACHEL BACK

Bukkake?

 

[Xater]

Looks like Rachel with a different hairstyle.

beaten...

But she has a tattoo and guns...

 

[Skilletor]

Yeah, Irene and Foster.

That's right, I remember now...I'd hate to see Itagaki and co. get their dirty rendering hands on Irene. :lol

 

[Rolf NB]

What happened to Rydia?!

 

[Skiptastic]

I am so goddamn pissed they cancelled the NG2 event in Bloomington this past weekend. I wanted to see more of Sonia. :'(

 

[Spider_Jerusalem]

Did they show NG2 CG cutscenes so far? They seem all realtime to me...

Her head looks like early CG. DO NOT WANT.

 

[McBradders]

Concept = win

Actual Implimentation = fail

 

[El-Suave]

They still can't do great hair?

 

[Skilletor]

Weren't we promised another "badass" ninja? Where is that ninja? I want the other ninja .

 

[Hcoregamer00]

Concept = win

Actual Implimentation = fail

So, its like Soul Calibur 4?

 

[EktorPR]

Damnit fuck. Horrible, Team Ninja. Just...horrible.

Spoiler

I echo the sentiments towards the concept art, though: it looks great

So, its like Soul Calibur 4?

For me it's the other way around: the actual models surpass their concept art. I don't know if you were referring to this, though. :lol

 

[Grimm Fandango]

Concept looks a lot like Sniper Wolf in some ways.

 

[Shogmaster]

Did they show NG2 CG cutscenes so far? They seem all realtime to me...

Holy shit, I guess that was maybe realtime. The city scape looked crazy.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Goddamn that concept art looks great.
Maybe next-gen we'll actually see 3D games that look as good as their concept art. =/

BTW: In the background you can see a number of monsters/villains which one would assume are from NG2 as well.

 

[Funky Papa]

Concept = win

Actual Implimentation = fail

Team Ninja has some serious issues transitioning their characters from drawings to 3D models. I believe that's one of the reasons why they rarely release concept art --the final characters look completely different.

 

[Kandrick]

Damn, they are BIG

 

[BeEatNU]

Artwork looks dope too bad the model didn't live up to the hype.

 

[Skilletor]

Well, I for one think both the concept art and the ingame model are pretty lame. Team Ninja has very boring female characters (outside of Ayane), imo. This one is no different. Hopefully I won't be forced to play as her, or I will have an actual complaint.

 

[guidop]

She looks a lot like Uma Thurman but shes got massive tits
