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."
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

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
Activision and Raven Software's 2006 action role-playing game, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, has found its way to the Xbox Store.
Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem
I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.
Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.
Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.
Ben Sledge from TheGamer Writes "I’m already impressed with Supergiant’s commitment to improving body diversity in the Hades 2 technical test."
There's a reason they're called 'gods' and not 'regular people'. It's nice they've diversified even more but gods looking godly wasn't exactly a glaring issue with the first game.
No one had an issue with that besides a very select group of people that try to push their own agenda.
The writer of the this article clearly doesn't know what a real god looks like and has never seen them /s
Thanks for bringing up a bunch of garbage thoughts that never crossed my mind when playing the first game because I was too busy playing the game to worry about the portrayal of the physical bodies of gods.
Foolish me, when I read the title I thought we were talking about game mechanics.
Piss off, honestly, with this asinine bottom of the barrel try-hard-to-be-relevant trash.
"Our audience is leaving us behind," Abernathy said.
(HE MEANS XBOX 360 AUDIENCE, HARDCORE)
"Women are not a small, special market on the fringe of the core," Abernathy said. "Women are the new core."
(HE MEANS FOCUS IS MORE CASUAL GAMING, KINECT 2)
Looks like Microsoft focus more new core, casual, just like last 3 E3s was all about Kinect.
Nintendo tried re-creat Wii, what is not that good.
Sony goes back to basic, this what gamers love.
Goodluck with that direction Microsoft. Also weird ass job title.
Kinect sold more than original Xbox console.
Also, Microsoft got big profit from Kinect, then of cause they are going to casual. They want same what Nintendo got with Wii.
It´s all about money.
He's right that women make up a large percentage of the core market these days but I get the impression he means it in more of a 'business' sense. Like the fact there are millions of women playing games like farmville so that will become their target audience.
However when I said women make up a lot of the core I meant women who are just as likely to play the next COD and Assassins Creed as the stereotypical 10-25 year old boy.
Hopefully MS realises this too, before they turn their next console into a platform for online bingo and dress up games.
Most likely he's just playing up for the 'hot topic' of women in games at the moment. If they were really serious about changing the image of women in gaming they should do a Nintendo (metroid) and uncover master chief as a woman ;P
