Buh...buh...buh...better than METAL GEAR??? Dear lord I hope you mean the Gameboy version. I thought DMC was a just okay hack and slash but Metal Gear was just plain revolutionary.

Metal Gear was good a game, the story sucked, but the game play was awesome. I just thought DMC was better, I think Dante is a better character than Snake or Raiden.

dmc is more fast paced, flashy, intense, cooler than mgs2, while mgs2 had the better story line, humour and more realism. So lets just say they both kick ass.
-
Wow! that\'ll be the only time someone will say DMC is better then MGS2. Personnally they are both great games, but DMC over MGS2. Not in my life time. MGS2 is a masterpeice.
-
I agree, they both are great games.

I\'ve always said DMC was better than MGS2. Then again, I think almost anything is better than MGS2, or I should specify; the second half of MGS2. That was the most torture I\'ve been subjected to in quite sometime, espically the ending..
Pass the tyenol.

Well I liked DMC much much better than MGS, but that\'s not so surprising knowing that I didn\'t like MGS at all :)
DMC is definitely one of my favorite games! I love most everything about it; the characters (Dante\'s the coolest non-FF character ever) the graphics, the places, the fighting... The difficulty level\'s good too. Not too easy, not too hard (currently playing normal).
The only thing I resented is the storyline. Full of cliches and illogical twists.
*spoiler alert*
Dante\'s relationship with Trish is the stupidest thing ever. I mean, she deceives him, turns out to be the servant of Mundus, tries to kill him.... And yet still he sees the light of goodness or whatever in her. Yea right. Why do the females always have to be "good inside" and only the main character can see that. It would have been much nicer if she\'d stayed evil. Besides if Mundus created her why should she have any goodness. Doesn\'t make sense.
Even so... My favorite PS2 game so far :)
-
Beat the game just now..
Damn.. I really liked it.
Graphics were superb.. Gamplay has lots and lots of action..
Silly story.. But I dont mind..
Im glad I got it :D
-
i wish i could join in and say what one i thought was better from mgs2 and dmc, but its not even out here yet.
kopking goes off in corner and cries:crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

I know why Dante likes Trish, its cause he wants some a$$ =)

DMC is cool, but I find it very hard to beleive anyone could say it\'s better than MGS2. Hey we all have our likes and dislikes, so I\'ll respect your opinion. Anyway DMC was just way too short for me. I loved it the first time I played it, but it was a renter. I always say I hate a game I can beat in one day. That\'s just me though. And hate is probably the wrong word, cause i don\'t hate DMC. The graphics were sweet, but they are going to be out of date before too long. I mean at the time DMC came out they were AWSOME! But now they are just mediocre compared to the newer games.

How is the PAL version of DMC ?
-
Steven, which is even more frightening, knowing that she looks just like his mom.

hahaha, yeah i know, they should both go on jerry springer.

I cant believe all this positive feedback. Honestly, I thought DMC was a beautiful game but its no where near my list of favorites. Here is why:
It\'s mine own rating system:
*****SPOILERS******
Just take half of how much the product cost-$25
and put it through a lil test of gain and loss--
Awesome graphics--plus ten (35)
Awesome weapons--plus ten (45)
The fact you lose them to suckier ones later--minus five (40)
Boss battles and their camera angles--minus ten (30)
Fighting Nightmare twice--minus five (25)
Nelo (maybe the best baddy ever)--plus ten (35)
Fighting Nightmare AGAIN--minus five (30)
Storyline--minus ten (20)
Mundus battle--even
Final points 20
Now what should happen is that the point total should equal the total cost of the game, cuz god knows now-a-days games cost double the amount of DVD\'s. DMC is half the game it should have been. Logical?
-
"The fact you lose them to suckier ones later--minus five (40) "
Wha, the weapons? You don\'t lose any weapons.

****SPOILER****
Your forced to use the Ifrit gloves and Sparda\'s sword later in the game just because they do a lot more damage than Alastor. Secondly the double pistols are waaaay too cool but after you pick up the shotgun and such they become useless. Know what I mean?
-
No I don\'t. :)
I mean I use the pistols all the time, mainly because it\'s fun and useful to "hover" in the air with them.
I never use Sparda cause it doesn\'t have the DT gauge. Alastor is definitely my favorite weapon, so I use that mostly. So you are not forced to give them up :)
-
SmallLady: Do you play the PAL version ? Or do u have it imported from US ?
-
I bought it at the local game store so it\'s PAL.
-
what is the PAL version? what does that mean?
-
i totally agree with small lady over that alastar and ivory ebony rules. Sparda just sucks except in the last battle cuz theirs, no dt, cool electrical effects and u lose air hike. ifrit\'s pretty good but i switch between ifrit/alastar and guns depending on what i\'m fighting and what mood i\'m in
here\'s my weapons of chose against different situations:
marrionets/fetish:doesnt matter cuz they\'r so easy. but i usually prefer alastar with ivory n ebony cuz i could pull of all those cool combos
sins/death sins:ifrit with rolling blaze and spear kick. alastar in devil form
blades:alastar definetly
frosts:ifrit(does mega damage)
kyklps:alastar regular/ifrit with dt.
skull things:alastar with air hike.
electrical monsters:ifrit
bosses
phantom:ifrit
nelo:alastar with nightmare beta
griffon:alastar with ivory and ebony
nightmare:alastar with ivory n ebony most of the time. ifrit to pount away on core

PAL version is the version we European games use...... NTSC is for Japan and US. So, if u order a game from US, u wont be able to play it...... because your machine cant read Ntsc discs, but you can get your machine chipped . Lot of games is slow on the PAL version (Tekken 2 have to be the worst of em).

Thanks a lot. I never knew that.

DMC
— Lame plot, pointless, incoherent, illogical. Nasty. Who cares :p (---)
— Well designed enemies and tons and tons and tons and tons and TONS of kickass action. [color=00FF00](+++)[/color]
— At times, totally awful camera angles. Which are almost as cool as they are irritating .([color=00FF00]+[/color]--)
— Beautiful locations to visit, and sometimes loads of flicker to look at too. Pretty. ([color=00FF00]++[/color]-)
— DANTE! [color=00FF00](+++++++++++++++)[/color]
I\'m never gonna quit using Ebony and Ivory, the most handy handguns in videogame history. Ifrit kicks ass in Devil Trigger mode, the hard punches and kicks take too long at the wind up... just a tad quicker and they\'d been nigh on perfect.

Go play it. Its fun.

y do ppl keep complaining about the camera angles anyways. I mean it makes it look so cinematic and cool. and it never once killed me. i finished the game about 4 times and their\'s only been about 2 occasions where i ran into camera angle problems where i couldn\'t see(hardly ever)
-
I completed this game on all difficulties and I though that it was a kick ass game and better then any other game Capcom have made (well maybe even Street Fighter 2 it depends on what mood I\'m in).
Hawke well said about Ebony And Ivory...
they aren\'t the best weapons in the game but they are so effective especially from long range...
The speed blew me away and when I was playing it through the 2nd time round (on Hard) it seemed faster cause the enemies were harder to dispose of despite the fact I\'d bought some kiss ass weapons like the Nightmare B and so on...
I can\'t wait for the 2nd one and for the people who hated the idea of Trish\'s role in the game I thought it was a good suprise instead of it being predictable...

PAL DMC has a crappy framerate compared to my NTC J demo:mad:
and the game is waaay too hard, Im at the beginning with that cat thing, how do you kill it?
-
At the end when you find Mundus in the basement and they are supposted to be trapped, Trish came in and helped Dante. After you beat Mundus, Trish was like "we\'re trapped, we\'re gonna die" or something like that. Then Dante said something like humans are very resourceful.
My question is since Trish came into the basement (w/ no way out) couldnt she and Dante escape the same way Trish came in?
Luckily the plane fell through the ceiling huh?

oh man..... You haven\'t seen nothing yet..... To kill him, stick to guns and dodge his attacks, then when you see that ball thing appear run to it and hack and slash it with your sword, then repeat.... You take a lot of damage hitting that ball.... Follow my instructions, and you will definently kick his azz...

I\'m in New Zealand and we play PAL games. The first time I play DMC was when its demo came together with Resident Evil. I though the demo was too good, I like the graphic, music and stuff. And I didn\'t intend to get the fully version of the game.
But during the Christmas sale, its price dropped alot and couldn\'t help me not owning the game. Well man, it\'s way greater than the demo and I don\'t have to say more about this, everyone knows how cool this game is.
I haven\'t played the NTSC version, but I think the game play is abit faster than PAL, like TekkenTag. Well, it\'s good and I\'m glad that I haven\'t wasted the money. :)
