HS was and is a great game, have great characters and one of the best use of the Sixaxis wich made me believe that the sixaxis would be a great addition to a lot of games, sadly that wasnt the case, the Hero sequences reminded me of GoW wich i love, the facial expresions of HS were awesome thanks to the Golum (LotR) guy, and at least it doesnt have the recycled bosses and areas from DMC4.

The block system is great and have a lot of deep when dealing with enemies, DMC (This version) can restore my faith in the series as i enjoyed DMC 1, DMC 2 and DMC 3 but 4 was MEH.

@Kratoscar2008 I don't know why you wasted your time writing that lol. I played the game I thought it was awful, and I don't really care for GoW as well. And it's "a lot of depth" not "a lot of deep."

@yugo

"Fans of the series rather watch the series die than have this piece of crap share its name."
hmmm that seems perfectly logical...

However since Im an actually you know "fan" of the series I wouldn't like to see it die. Thats quite possibly the stupidest comment I think Ive ever read (and Ive read a lot of stupid things). Speak for yourself please. Were you this up in arms when DMC2 came out? Have you even played DMC2?

A fan usually means they support something regardless of circumstances, and most fans usually at least wait to play a game demo or otherwise before they judge it. SMH you new age gamers lol.

@VileAndVicious

Fanboys usually support something regardless of circumstances. I'm a fan, and a fan doesn't want the thing they love slowly turn into something terrible. Ever heard of the phrase "quit while your head?" I'd rather have the series end at DMC4 then have a crappy reboot I know I'm not going to care for.

They should have at least finished the original story before even bothering a reboot. That to me just shows how much they really care for the series or their fans.

Same with Ninja Gaiden. I wish Ninja Gaiden had ended at 2 because Ninja Gaiden 3 was so terrible. No fan could support that game.

I believe Capcom insulted "old school fans of the series" back when they never allowed Hideki Kimya to actually do a true sequel to the first DMC game on PS2. The series has changed so much with each new DMC game anyway.Yet "old school fans of the series" continue to buy each new game (myself included).
There is no such thing as unnecessary, we adapt.

I also admit as well that Devil May Cry IV wasn't as the previous versions however I believed that the engine it ran would have been perfect to run a new volume of the series on. What they needed to change was not the look of the game but the quality of story which was a good idea going to NT for advice fro however Capcom did the stupid move of throwing everything what they have done out the window instead of learning from their mistakes which have been evident in all of its high ranking franchises.

I'm open-minded with change mind you in all games but only implement ones that help in improving the grounds the title has already built up on. Metal Gear Solid 4, Killzone II and Red Dead Redemption are games that did over hauls necessary to enhance gameplay exponentially but still feel like their previous iterations at the end of the day without downgrading.

I still will not buy the game to teach Ninja Theory and Capcom a lesson in customer service but if the gameplay manages to take the action genre to the next level, I wouldn't mind eating crow. Putting this against Platinum's best is going to be an interesting battle at E3....
