FINALY IT COMES TO XBOX 360! When i first got a ps2 i was given this game and i thought it was amazing. I dont think i stopped playing it for...days...weeks...months...until i started playing xbox ...and then xbox 360....until the game was lost to me.
Devil May Cry takes you into the anime world. Number 4 is so similar to the previous 3, same layout, same mission settings, same red Orbs to collect however you are not the same character to begin with. No longer where you the incredible Dante with his own built guns Ebony and Ivory. You start as Nero with his own twin shot revolver, Red Queen sword and Devil Bringer (demonic arm) but it just didnt have the same effect as the first games, you still live in the anime world and can pull off some incredible moves linking sword, arm and gun attaks. But you do get to play as Dante later on in the game, so the origional kick-ass semi devil is still around. There is also the origional rating system for combos, D-SSS being 'Smokin' Sick Style' which is still awesome but its just not as impressive as the first games. The moves you can pull off are amazing, unlocking combos and special moves linked to your selected style, "trickster" was always my favorite. You can switch between devil power and normal which adds a furthur dimention to the moves.
The game has excelent in game fighting as they all have, viewing the charecter from a 3rd person view. The missions are long but amazing, so much fighting and sord/gun/arm play about it. It really makes you want to be the charecter because they are just so awesome.
I definatly recomend this game to those who have not played Devil May Cry before. Its a great game to go on if you just want to fight some puppet zombies with some amazing combos and moves. The game for me was not as good as the previous 3, but to finaly be able to play it on Xbox 360 is excelent. It really involves you making you wish you where in the game. Overall i give it a 8 out of 10. Great game to just sit and be absorbed by.
