    The original isn’t really known for telling a compelling story with its hammy dialogue and way too out there ending, but this one and the one in were pretty good. introduces a new character called Nero. He’s got a pretty large crush on a church singer named Kyrie. Nero tends to get really bored during sermons, but he always pays attention and shows up for Kyrie’s singing. For the most part it’s his typical “I’m here for you, but this church thing is trying m... Read more

    I’ve been a fan of this series since the beginning, and this entry surprised me by giving me new features and options I didn’t even know I wanted. They form a tight, precise combat system that action aficionados will adore, but newcomers can still utilize. Devil May Cry 4 delivers polished, fiendish thrills that eclipse other games in the series, and almost all contemporaries in the genre. Read more

    A truly engaging and addictively action-packed game with amazing production value, Devil May Cry 4 is one of those deeply enjoyable games that deserve a place in your gaming library. While this forth chapter takes the spotlight away from Dante, Nero is a worthy hero to follow and thus making this an interesting sequel with a lot to offer. Read more

    The time has finally come. After all the YouTube videos, and playable demos, and show coverage it’s time to put Capcom’s latest devil hunting game through its paces. I must say that any fan of this series is not going to be disappointed, and to you new comers, you are in for one hell of a game too!! Read more

    So while Devil May Cry 4 is basically a shinier version of DMC3 with a few new gameplay mechanics, it still doesn't disappoint, and makes for a strong first showing on both the PS3 and the 360. It also marks a great jumping on point for newcomers with a more balanced difficulty level and a decent checkpoint/continue system, but offers plenty of harder modes for the die-hard fans. Easily one of the best action games in recent years, and something that I can suggest pic... Read more

    Game starts off slow with the enemies being a bit few, but whow! it panned out to be a great game and die hard fans like me wont rest until the bloody palace mode is conquered and all difficulties beaten- as I have already (:Whats better than slashing hordes of demons with ultra cool moves?

  3. PC/Laptop vs Console

    That is not true anymore, Devil May Cry 4 and another golf game are required to be installed in the hard drive of the PS3. 5GB for Devil May Cry 4, don't know for the golf game. The developers said that it is to take advantage of loading times... but I don't believe that's the reason.
