Its time for Devil to cry again. Earlier games were best games on Ps2, if you don't count Devil May Cry2.

Game series power has always been demon slicing Dante. It was told that in this one Dante would leave the series, but he mainly steps back little.

Well you start with Nero which looks like younger Dante. Game kicks off when during seremony Dante jumps trough roof window and kills high priest. Nero won't stand still while villagers are killed and Dante has to retreat.

Nero looks pretty much like Dante, but he has this demonic hand.He has 1 gun,1 sword (Yamato as Devil sword).You get Red orbs like in other series, where you can customize your skills and waepons.You can buy new combos to sword,Red Queen and other stuff like Air-hike or Speed. Nero has his Demonic hand, which is biggest improvement in series. You can drag andtrowh enemies like you want, but it really gets boring at some point since you can upgrade only its range..
Nero acts like 15 year Child, which is pretty sad.I also get this Tidus from FF X from him, and at those times I really would like to call god and curse satan..

Around halfway the game, Capcom has realized its mistake and game gets as good as or better than in Devil May Cry 3 or 1.Dantes time.

Dante, has become somewhat old.But Dante still has those Waepon master and other styles,Devil mode,Rebellion sword and his 2 pistols.
You get few good waepons, but mostly you use rebellion.
Which is very,very sad.
Devil mode is cool but you just happen to be faster, and more powerful.At dmc 1, you could fly!

Game biggest flaw is its problem solving and jumping parts. And game starts with extremely bad demo where  you would like to cry.I'm pretty big Jprg fan but no, stay out of Devil May Cry!

You will have plenty time spent on boss fights, but after you beat them with Nero, you then beat them with Dante...This is pretty big flaw, since bosses aren't interesting.

Final boss is some **** old man who has Sparda,which aint cool!
Story is still pretty ok for standart game, but it doesnt work on Devil May Cry...

This is not like Devil may cry 2,but still,its not nearly good as Dmc1 or Dmc3.<
I rather play those over and over again
But yes, it satisfies your Dmc spirit for sometime.
