The More DMC Changes, The More Devil May Cry Stays the Same [Kotaku]

Kotaku - Dear Devil May Cry fans: know that I am one of you, for the most part. A guy who played DMC1 gleefully, suffered through 2, was comforted by 3 and ignored 4. So let me declare that I think there's nothing to worry about with the upcoming DMC reboot. You jump, shoot and slash with style.

I dont care, because of this game we'll never get a DMC5 and all the characters, enemies, weapons, storylines, etc. have been scrapped in favor of a more western appealing reboot for the sake of greater sales.

AgreeFairy4359d ago

Considering how much DMC4 sucked, I don't mind this DMC at all.

Summons754359d ago

wow sucked must have been redefined seeing it was the most popular out of the whole series not to mention highest selling...Devil May Cry did not need a reboot and this could far gone to a far better developer, preferably one who actually has made good games before unlike Ninja Theory.

@summons

DMC4 released on PC,PS3.and 360 and sold just barely over original. GoW sold 5mill on one console alone.

just because it sold better then others doesn't mean it met expectations

Yea..............im not feeling this.....................I miss Nelo Angelo already....

dark-hollow4359d ago

it looks more awesome everyday. let the haters hate!
their arguments are getting weaker with every new footage shown.

rezzah4359d ago

Your reasoning for why it is so great in comparison to the previous series is outstanding.

Good job.

isnt this a repost of the same preview?

Anybody else think the new Dante looks like Hayden Christensen, even sounds a little like him.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC25d ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Exvalos24d ago

What a weird name, it's essentially devil may cry, devil may cry lol

Cacabunga24d ago

Best to good for me: 3, reboot, 1, 5

2 and 4 are trash, didnt like any of them.
5 has very good gameplay variety but i hated the foes.. it is just insects the whole time. Reboot has the best foes for me

Friendlygamer25d ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey60225d ago (Edited 25d ago )

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya25d ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde25d ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

SeTTriP25d ago

This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.
