Personally, I think Dante is a far cooler design then Ryu Hayabusa but Strider Hiryu beats them both when it comes to uniqueness. As for the games themselves, Ninja Gaiden surpassed DMC but that is a minor feat when you take into account how long DMC was out on the market. It's up in the air as to whether DMC3 will surpass Ninja Gaiden though. Although I think they are on the right track in allowing us to switch weapons while in the midst of a combo to prolong that combo.
