Devil May Cry and Devil May Cry 3 are good games, but this game just tarnishes the very DMC name. It shouldn't have even been made. The first one was brilliant fun, but lacked almost any kind of story. It was still a well loved game and had tons of great action and awesome boss fights.

Story: It's some crappy story about a business man named Arius who wants to possess demon like powers and Dante is called to stop him. It's a really cheesy plot that is comepletly forgettable.

Graphics: It almost seems as if the graphic quality dropped. Dante and Lucia look good, but the enemies have a noticible drop in polygons. The environments can be pretty drab in outdoor areas as well. Just not too good...

Sound: DMC does have a decent gothic/heavy metal soundtrack. It may be the best aspect of the game actually, considering this game is horrible.

Gameplay: very similar to DMC one, with a few new fancy " moves thrown in. It's a cool for a few minutes I guess. The enemies are alot more boring than in the previous one, making fighting them not too much fun and the bosses aren't as intriguing either. Dante and Lucia do control well though. O ya, Lucia haha. She isn't too fun to play as, and you end up wishing she didn't exist.

Overall: a pathetic effort, this game should have never been made. I bought it because I liked DMC, but it was a bad idea on my part.
