In an age of Achievement hunters and Trophy whores, it’s easy to say that video games as an entertainment medium have lost their luster. It’s much harder to back up that claim, but the question remains: have we lost sight of what makes video games fun?
The friendly folks over at Razer recently sent us their full size Kishi Ultra mobile gaming controller, and this thing didn't disappoint.
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."
Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.
Still a good game though.
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
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
Vanillaware's tactical role-playing game Unicorn Overlord is a beautiful mix of old mechanics and new-age graphics, with over 65 unique recruitable characters and a rich storyline.
I don't think so. The internet has ruined the fun factor for me. Everything has to be so serious and if it doesn't have a huge budget then it isn't taken seriously.
Too much hype for mediocre games.
When I was a kid any game was fun because it was new tech. And now that I'm older I like more story driven games. But they are fun still or I wouldn't play them still . To say whether they're more fun is too hard to decide for me.
While I still enjoy gaming, it's nowhere near as fun as it used to be for me. To much is shown before hand these days and with the dominance of online gaming, games have become more competitive than fun.
I used to love online gaming but getting right back into single player games now days because that's where the variety it, not shooting someone with a gun part 6383237.
Developers aren't really on their A-Game anymore. Today it's more about pushing as fast for as much as you can. End of the day bugs are overseen and the consumer "has" to put up with it.
The fun factor is than taken away if I have to be the one testing the game instead of playing it.
For me, the online competitive games have ruined the fun for me. I can only play these games in small doses. The fun really exists in the coop community games. These games remind me when my brother and I would play split screen Twisted Metal 2 all night long.
