In New Video Game, The Enemy Is Cable News

A new video game from publisher Capcom (Resident Evil, Street Fighter) has a very unusual enemy: cable news.

In DMC: Devil May Cry, the player has to do battle–literally–with the disembodied floating head of a pompous cable news host, who anchors a show on the “Raptor News Network.” After defeating the head, the player is sucked into the channel’s news coverage itself.
