Default The Engine Sword

I recently came across a very high quality picture of the Versus guy sitting on his throne with his sword. Here you can clearly see the engine and the mechanics.

It looks like the engine is connected to the blade, but I cant see how it might work. All I can think of its the engine opening the blade like scissors xD but that would be stupid D:

Im trying to write about it on my weapons page so i need some help xD Any ideas?


pic is: http://finalfantasyversusxiii.net/im...rsusxiii10.jpg

Hmmz I can't really see the pic in its original size cuz of my phone, but maybehh the engine warms up the blade to extreme temperatures for more comfortable hacking & slashing...? Plus its just friggen kewl

Judging from what it looks like, the only thing I can say is that it involves the use of magnets.

Reason being is that its the only reason how they can float and are connected. By tampering with the magnet and flickering the sword (think of how you fly a kite somewhat) you can manipulate how the weapons move and rotate.

Still this is very strange since Nero's sword has an engine as well.

Nero also has to tune his sword. And throttle it.

Seeing as they can rotate and float I dont see how they cant mimic a chainsaw or engine. (Saying that for puzzles the weapons may have to make "energy" to move something. Or how like magneto uses his powers to float or walk to different areas).

I say the engine that is powered by crystals makes the sword magic and makes it possible to teleport to it.
Just a guess because in the trailer at the end when he powers up the engine, theres all this magic stuff flying around it.
it could be diiferent but im guessing you can power that sword with crystals making it magic and theres different crystals for different types of effects.

I was assuming the effects were done by the shattered bullets. But the crystal idea? Thats very possible. Good idea

Sry buddy but DMC4's Nero was not made by Tetsuya Nomura but rather Makoto Tsuchibayashi.

Nope, we don't have any new screenshots for you of Devil May Cry 4. At least not today. But what we do have is its cover art created by none other than the renowned character designer Makoto Tsuchibayashi.

If you looked closely on picture identifying versus swords there was another sword which resembled the one he picked in trailer. so that sword may possibly even use a type of crystal fuel itself
