Jason Cisarano reports:
''Capcom's multimillion-selling console hit Devil May Cry 4 is making its way to the PC next month, and the developer is promising a class act. There will be two new play modes, some changes to the level layout, and improvements to the cutscenes to take advantage of the PCs power. Recently, I got my hands on a strictly-for PC demo to take a look at what it had to offer.
First things first: this game looks good on a high-resolution computer monitor. With the antialiasing cranked up at a resolution of 1680x1050, the scenes and characters have an impressive amount of detail. The first segment of the demo takes place in a cathedral-like area, and it shows off some nice environmental details like stained-glass windows and complex brickwork and grillwork. The second segment of the demo is a boss battle against a massive demon named Berial. Every inch of his thirty-foot tall frame is covered with some kind of cool visual effect. His skin and muscles have a wrinkly texture that glows and ebbs with his movements. What appear to be rivulets of lava stream down his shoulders, and he exudes fire from all his pores. When he's gravely wounded, though, he collapses and loses the fiery effect for a moment, and his skin appears smooth and hard, like a cooled lava flow.''
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."
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

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
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
Two Devil May Cry games have been delisted on Steam. As shared on X, formerly Twitter, by Wario64, Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition and Devil May Cry 4 are no longer available to purchase.
Bless the adorably all digital future! When it comes to PC games its not as big of an issue because there should always be another way to access single player games, but still, I hate to see anything get delisted.
Well, DMC4 special edition has a lot of issues to run from Steam.
I have to get a modded executable to even be able to run the game on Windows 10.
Not sure if it is because the game runs in DirectX10 or what, but it sucks they have not even tried to fix it.
Devil May Cry 4 launched 15 years ago today, bringing with it new character Nero. Has it stood the test of time?
Never liked it and I think I got it day 1.
Cheap Capcom design of half a game that you have to walk through twice.
5 isn't much different in that department. Encounter the same boss three times with three different characters? Endless warehouses or alien-like tunnels that all look the same.
