OnlySP: The Holidays are up as you know, and when you open your gifts there is as much a chance of opening up an “updated” “remastered” or “definitive” version of a game you already played as there is an actual new one.
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
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
Huzaifah from eXputer: "Devil May Cry 5, the latest iteration in the iconic DMC franchise by Capcom, still holds its own as a fantastic hack-and-slash in 2024."
NVIDIA continues to add games to GeForce NOW. This week, Devil May Cry 5, Gears Tactics, and The Crew Motorfest lead the charge.
As long as plenty of new games are releasing, I dont really mind remakes/remasters.
For example, all of my friends played 360 last gen while i played ps3. I kept telling them how good TLOU but they just didnt understand. Now, many of them moved to Ps4 because of the terrible XB1 launch, and they finally got to experience TLOU. And guess what, they loved it.
If it hadnt been remastered, they would have never gotten to play it. And this goes for many of the other remastered games being released as well
I can't let go of older games, I think i'll play the Hitman games (excluding Absolution) Okami and Populous The Beginning to the day I die
Personally, its mostly because I hadn't play the original version before.
Tried Tomb Raider DE on PS4 through GameFly because I missed out on it on 360/ps3. Will get it for ps4 when I return from vacation.
Not saying that I wouldn't buy one if I'd played the original before, but it would have to be a series I REALLY love. The only two I can think of that qualify are Halo and Kingdom Hearts (final mix versions and didn't get to play BBS). The rumored FFXIII series HD remaster doesn't quite qualify because, while I enjoyed them, I didn't love them THAT much for me to consider an HD remaster.
The only game I ever "re-bought" so to speak was MGS3 Subsistence.
But the major draw was the addition of online , and I wanted to play through the single player with the different camera perspetive. I got my money's worth.
The reason is simple: this generation had NO backwards compatibility whatsoever and also there were LOTS of awesome games in the last generation.
