If there’s one thing that any gamer hates, it’s seeing a video game that they love given a terrible sequel. Not only does it mean that you have to wait an extra amount of time to get a worthy successor to your favorite game, but in some cases, you might just find that this terrible sequel means that you will never see another sequel ever again.
With the release of the Devil May Cry series on Netflix, we take a moment to look back on this almost 20-year-old series and let you know the best of the best.
IMO
6. DMC2 6/10
5. DMC4 7.5/10 (Hated Nero, repeat bosses, Dante was the saving grace but only about half the game)
4. DmC 7.5/10 (solid overall, some great ideas, meh story, dialog sucked, and the director almost killed DMC)
3. DMC1 8.5/10 (all around solid)
2. DMC5 9/10 (carried by Dante & Nero gameplay, I didn’t like V’s, Nero’s better but still not a fan)
1. DCM3 10/10 (chef’s kiss)
Well, it worked.
This nothingburger of a opinion article got a lot of views and comments.
WHAT!? who in their right mind would put 2 near the top (not at the bottom) unironically?
I think all of them are worth playing in their own right honestly, except 2 unless you REALLY want to experience the whole series.
I honestly don't know what the author was smoking, personally I'd rank DMC3 as no.1, maybe DMC5 as second, DMC1 as third, DMC4 as fourth, and DMC as fifth and DMC2 last. such a bizarre list, mybe the author just has strange taste.
"Devil May Cry 2 isn’t trash. It’s just misunderstood by a fanbase that doesn’t like change."
This and putting DMC 2 number 2 is all I need to ignore this ranking. DMC2 is absolute trash and it's clear this person doesn't understand exactly why.
Kazuyuki Shindo, who worked on games including Legend of Mana, Final Fantasy XIII, and SaGa: Emerald Beyond, has left Square Enix.
We look at every single partner in the Mario franchise ahead of the release of Mario & Luigi: Brothership.
I don't know why I click on these list articles and expect anything in depth. This would have been a lot more interesting if the person who wrote it spent more than five sentences talking about each game. Especially DMC2, FF13, and Other M, because there's a lot to talk about there. I will give them credit for going against current shitty "journalism" trends and keeping the whole list on one page, instead of splitting it up into two or, even worse, putting each game on its own page, though.
I have really enjoyed Metroid other M despite some of its problems
Crackdown 2!
I liked DMC2, don't remember much about it other than cheesing the final boss but it was a solid sequel. FF13 was crap.
Megaman x7 was an unplayable mess when i played it when it came out. 3rd birthday aka parasite eve 3's story was atrocious and technically aya brea only cameos in that game. Every silent hill after 4. Onimusha 3 tried to go Hollywood and put in time travel. Dino Crisis 3 with Dinos in space. My personal list.
