First off I have to say sorry to Kurse because he has to wait two to three days before getting this game. So now that that's ut of the way, I have been a fan of DMC for awhile. I ought the first game and loved and then the second one came out. Now a lot of people hated it, I on the other hand thought it was a solid title not worthy of being a sequal but rather an expansion pack to DMC 1. Then some time went buy and DMC 3 popped onto the ps2 with some rather difficult play thus leading to the special edition of the game to help ut those who couldnt beat it. Now we are on the fourth installment of the game and it takes on the role of MGS2 with starring a new character to play as, Nero. Now ou dont always play as nero you do get to fight it up as Dante a ways into the game. Now as far as story I wont spoil anything for anyone but I will say its better than 2 but not as good as 1.
Most of you have played the demo, well at least I hope mst of you did. Anyway, the controls feel like those of DMC 3 with the fast paced movement and depending on your style you can use the sword, gun or devil bringer. Speaking of that, the devil bringer is nero's arm that has some cool powers like beathing the shit out of guys, pulling them towards you or throwing them into the air for some kller aerial combos. But if you have played any DMC game you get the control scheme and its the same just there are a few new things added to the mix. Like the devil bringer as I said before. Nero's sword can be ramped up to dish out a more powerful attack and Dante, well ill just say he gets a kick ass gun persay to use that I like alot.
Its nice to see a series I like come into the next chapter of gaming and look good. Seeing Nero/Dante dish out some major ass whipping in such a beautiful way almost brings a tear to my eye. I SAID ALMOST! hahaha. The same goes for the sound I like the music score that goes with the game and the voice acting is spot on as well as it was in the othe rtitles. If it was corny it was either bad ass r funny nothing cheesy about these guys.
Saying all these good things about the game doesnt mean there arnt any problems with it. The gameplay does have its flaws, enemies is one of them. There are not a lot of different types of enemies and they all look very very similar. So you kind of get bored killing waves of puppet monsters with diifferent blades for body parts. Another big problem is of course the camera. As will all action games the camera seems to like to get stuck when im fighting someone to where I cant see nero/dante and I get fucken killed. This is bullshit, why cant we get a camera system that works well with 3rd person action titles. And fnally you have the boss battles, now im not knocking the battles themselves but look foreward to fighting the same guys two or maybe three times before they leave you alone. they just cant get enough of your ass kicking I guess. Now all this being said DMC 4 is a great game and definetly one you should check out. Just dont think this is the next step of actn gaming and its just oerfect. It has its normal flaws as with the other ones, but its still an ass kicking beast. Sowhen you see it in the store check it out.
