thank God NG2 is comming out.
I did not enjoy DMC one bit. very lame.
the AI is ridiculously horrible.
The Demon boss in the demo was very easy and seemed LOST while in action. Rooms are too short. Beat 5 enemies and then move to the next room. No run Button??? still???

hmmmmmmm.... i give the game 6/10

Cusco6690d ago

You know it's a matter of preference, but DMC4 sure as hell does not deserve a 6/10, by any standards. Just by graphics, sound, and design alone it beats out your precious NG2 which looks like a lazy rehash of Sigma's graphical engine and gameplay engine for that matter. Now the ninja gaiden series is fantastic, however it lacks story, it lacks atmosphere (going from awesome ninja village to fighting tanks, gimme a break), and best of all Ryu has no personality what so ever. The only reason you'd want to play Gaiden is for difficulty and sheer enjoyment of the battle mechanics. Now having said that, DMC4s battle mechanics, maybe not as fluid, but definately more refined and fleshed out, it has a great story, its graphics blow away what we've seen from NG2, and it's very atmospheric with a persistent motif. Now you sir, should stop uttering nonsense and give DMC4 another chance.

Atmoshpere? I've played the demo.. the rooms are small in DMC. The rooms were Big and Longer in NG2(look at the gameplay vids)

And the gameplay is pretty weak in DMC4. it has 5 enemies avg in a room.... that's very weak compared to NG2. again.. (play the demo and watch the vids)

Lazy rehash? you better check up on that because last time i saw. Blood & Gore are in NG2 with some very clean fluid action.
you said "Now having said that, DMC4s battle mechanics, maybe not as fluid, but definately more refined and fleshed out".....How many weapons does Ryu have... and how many does that demo have?? the combo system in DMC is REHASH... same mechanics....if you look at NG2... it's pure fatalities.

And in terms of graphics. you need to check your eyes becaus ethe only nice looking thing in DMC4 is the background.

Look. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings in anyway. But DMC4 is a wait game for the real action games like NG2, GOW3, blah blah blah.

DMC4 6/10

Peekay6690d ago

But in NG - you could only use one combat weapon at a time. I've never play DMC before this Demo and i've honestly fallen for it. I love the way you can switch between the guns, DevilArm, his sword, and revving.

The part were you use just one arm to throw Beril and then smack him in the face is just awesome. How many other video games allow you to do this? It's freaking smoking. Also the cut scene just before this fight was just classic!

DemiseofPandas6690d ago

The series may not be your cup of tea, but I feel this demo was aimed to help people believe that this game isn't as impossible as the rumors of DMC3 made the series seem. The battle system is pretty deep especially when most people don't know that with timed button presses that you can have neros sword charged for every attack. The game is obviously set on human mode (aka easiest setting) and just like gaiden these games offer a lot of replay value. I wonder if the demo had you playing as Dante it would have changed your mind, considering the system gets only deeper with on the fly weapons and style changes. You honestly should at least rent the game, and complete it before slamming it in front of NG. You may still end up liking NG more but this game at least deserves the benefit of a doubt.

I'm getting better at the Instant Revving now, the combos are fun to pull off :).

DMC2 ranked 2nd and also DmC ranked 3rd?
What a load of BS!

ABizzel1402d ago

IMO

6. DMC2 6/10
5. DMC4 7.5/10 (Hated Nero, repeat bosses, Dante was the saving grace but only about half the game)
4. DmC 7.5/10 (solid overall, some great ideas, meh story, dialog sucked, and the director almost killed DMC)
3. DMC1 8.5/10 (all around solid)
2. DMC5 9/10 (carried by Dante & Nero gameplay, I didn’t like V’s, Nero’s better but still not a fan)
1. DCM3 10/10 (chef’s kiss)

Vits402d ago

Well, it worked.

This nothingburger of a opinion article got a lot of views and comments.

Pyrofire95401d ago

WHAT!? who in their right mind would put 2 near the top (not at the bottom) unironically?
I think all of them are worth playing in their own right honestly, except 2 unless you REALLY want to experience the whole series.

FinalFantasyFanatic401d ago (Edited 401d ago )

I honestly don't know what the author was smoking, personally I'd rank DMC3 as no.1, maybe DMC5 as second, DMC1 as third, DMC4 as fourth, and DMC as fifth and DMC2 last. such a bizarre list, mybe the author just has strange taste.

lellkay402d ago

DMC2 anywhere but last is crazy. Awful list overall.

BlaqMagiq1402d ago

"Devil May Cry 2 isn’t trash. It’s just misunderstood by a fanbase that doesn’t like change."

This and putting DMC 2 number 2 is all I need to ignore this ranking. DMC2 is absolute trash and it's clear this person doesn't understand exactly why.

Flenter402d ago

For me: 3,1,5,4,2 and then .....Dmc

fsfsxii402d ago (Edited 402d ago )

Why is DmC last? Genuinely curious.

lellkay402d ago (Edited 402d ago )

Dmc is far superior to DMC2 come on

generic-user-name402d ago

"almost 20-year-old series"

It's 24 years old.

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."

VersusDMC764d ago

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

VersusDMC764d 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.

Exvalos763d ago

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

Cacabunga763d 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

Friendlygamer764d 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

monkey602764d ago (Edited 764d 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_Suzumiya763d ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde763d 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

SeTTriP763d 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.

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.

Aaroncls7841d ago

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.

Sephiroushin840d ago (Edited 840d ago )

DMC4 Special Edition is not delisted, it was just the standard version, it has nothing to do with issues of performance or anything alike. Its just that Capcom probably do not want to sell the standard version, neither the standalone DMC3 version.
