DmC Devil May Cry Review | Explosion

"DmC’s narrative is relatively straightforward: after being attacked by a Hunter Demon, the 21st Century Andrew Garfield-like Dante awakes with a hangover in a strange place called Limbo City. " Gary Marston | Explosion.com

i finally got around to playing the demo and LOL. all problems aside(and there are many, with the main one being the game plays really sluggish, very slow paced for a DMC game) i couldnt stop loling at the diolouge. the boss fight, like wtf? "FUCK YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUU"
"Fuck you!"
"NO, FUCK YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!&a mp;qu ot;
LMFAOOOO talk about immature xD i wonder if they honestly thought that was cool & edgy.

zerocrossing4120d ago (Edited 4120d ago )

No offence to those who like the game, but yeah that entire seen was just so laughably ridiculous! It honestly made me question if those who are buying DmC have even played the demo... If that wasn't bad enough the voice acting is just awful, sounds like something you'd get in some cheep teen flick.

8bitHero4120d ago

EXACTLY!! haha that scene was so funny(in a bad way) personally, i think ninja theory is a garbage developer, none of their games are even slightly interesting and i have to say this one is by far the worse, its like a game made for 12 year olds whos just discovered curse words.

also has anyone else noticed that the media has been defending ninja theory a lot? i mean before dmc every gaming media site pretty much called them a mediocre developer but ever since dmc theyve been praising their past games? idk its kinda weird but w/e it doesnt bother me, money talks.

I am amazed at the media bias towards this game. None of the reviews talk about the game objectively. Most of these sites dont know a jack about what aspects to evaluate in a technical/hardcore hack and slash title like DMC. Do these reviewers even know about jump cancelling, just-frame timings, parrying, counters, invincibility frames and many other such terms that DMC veterans are familiar with? These reviewers lack necessary knowledge to review and judge the game. That is why their reviews are invalid and untrustworthy. The current high reviews scores are just a reaction to the hate the game has been getting. Everybody wants to act all open-minded and accepting of change. They want to give Ninja Theory a chance and dont want to criticize the game and look like a "hater/anti".

Dante acts like a teenager that think the word ''Fuck'' is kool on everything.

i can imagine him saying it a lot in this game without reason ..

Sorry to hear that, I order from shopto because they deliver a day early!

Let the sheep feed into developers who have no concept of good game design and insult fans and other developers who haveade better games long before them. Let them feed into it and when the industry dies and they cry they will only have themselves to blame, of course like ninja theory they will blame every other person thing and animal that defies their thinking.

DmC is a horribly designed, horribly written and horribly tested game made by developers who insult people who point out the flaws, insult the original creator and Japanese games in general, and pretend that god handed them the game on a silver platter with angels singing their name. The interviews and demo videos showed it alone, the public demo even proved it more and now the final release with all the bugs from the demo and more ever present. But the defends are pretending these facts don't exist an will only hurt our gaming industry.

DangerousDAN4120d ago

Just shut up already! Whining and whining, give it a rest!

N4GDgAPc4120d ago

Everytime I hear someone how they got insulted buy NT I just think of the song by Justin Timberlake and this chorus goes through my head.

"Cry me a River!"

I seen some of what you guys called insults and I don't see it. And I don't know why you guys get all but hurt over what he says.

Two words

Who cares!

What if this game ended up being so amazing I bet you would forget about the insults. I find that just a silly reason not to buy a game. U buy it because you think its going to be good. If you think its going to suck don't buy it. Don't give me all these different reasons that have nothing to do with the game.

Hingle_Mcringleberry4120d ago

Sheep would be the people hating on the game because its the cool thing to do, even before they even play it.

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."

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

VersusDMC6d 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.

Exvalos6d ago

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

Cacabunga6d 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

Friendlygamer6d 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

monkey6026d ago (Edited 6d 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_Suzumiya6d ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde6d 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

SeTTriP6d 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.
