Well, at least he'll be pretty to look at. Especially now that they've gone and made Dante into Sam Fisher.

.... WTF. I thought Dante was doing things for a good cause? Or are we playing as "the enemy" now?

Well, it's unknown what the fuck is going on at this point. But look at the first picture I posted, and this picture.

It looks to me as if Nero is pointing his gun at Dante.

It says Nero is in some "religeous organization", I'm going out on a limb here to guess that the goals of that organization are to eradicate demons. Nero probably has the same mind set as Lady did at first.

Nero = Raiden?

Raiden had a man crush on Snake. Nero probably has a man crush on Dante; which would explain the copying his looks and everything.

Here's what I've heard so far. It's not exact, but nothing is at this point.

Nero is trying to do something that will benefit him and be awesome (and demonic), but it's a baaaad idea and could cause some big problems for the world. So Dante, naturally, is like, "DUDE STOP THAT", so they oppose each other in this, as Dante tries to stop him.

And for those that don't know, Nero isn't just "some guy". He has a demonic arm that he uses in the game, similar to a Devil Trigger, except that he's not a demon (as far as we know), so he charges that instead. You can see a hint of it in the images.

Resurrecting this, since I just found actual information. I'll have to remember to dropkick the person that told me the junk I was just rambling about, as it's totally false.

From IGN:
"Nero lives in a remote island city called Fortuna (the setting of most of DMC4). He belongs to an ancient group of religious crusaders known as the Order of the Sword who worship Sparda and fight demons in his name. Prior to the beginning of the game, Nero's life involves doing special jobs for the Order, cleaning up "messy" situations. All of that changes one day when a white-haired man in a long red coat starts slaying the clergyman at the Order. Kobayashi ends that with, "Just because Nero's in the game doesn't mean that Dante disappears from the game completely."

and

"Capcom comments about the Devil Trigger or lack there of for Nero, "Since Nero isn't of Sparda progeny, he probably won't be able to undergo a full tranformation, but that doesn't mean the mechanic will vanish completely from DMC4." Unfortunately this is the aspect of DMC4 that is still under work, and Kobayashi only teases with, "The key word on Devil Trigger is 'Devil' - but that's something - as far as its relationship to Nero - we're not ready to explore just yet..."

Oh, and hey:

*Kobayashi insists that unlike Dante and Vergil's connection, there is no story-based reason why Nero bears resemblance to the sons of Sparda. Nero's look is about finding a design that is different YET familiar. He ends with the quote: "Devil May Cry is about guns and swords, and we want people to be able to see and understand that."
