My Devil May Cry review.

i here alott of peoples opinion on this game and even tshirt has siome valied statments even thow he got off the subject after while godbless his soul...heres my impressions on the game...

ill rate the game from a 1 to 5 5 being best...

graphics 3 and 1/2--- 4 the boss battles really showed off some of the ps2 power...

music 3 and 1/2 --- 4 music was acually good...

level design about 4 there really wasnt any levels,areas were kind of short but once you unlocked them you can go back and forth and collect coins,if the missions were longer id given level design a 5...

ai and battles---5  wow this game is really tough every monster has some kind of routine that you need to master,the bosses are unbeatable untill you learn there moves and styles and i hear it gets even harder on the hard level...

lasting appeal---so far am about 15 hours into the game and am still aveing fun,from what i hear when you beat the game you get harder monsters right from the start so ill be going threw again because i love a good challenge...

to tshirt guy you seem to have a really low value on people and you really seem to be angry and takeing youre frustrations on us gamers which is really wrong,what i think you should do is go for a walk take a look at the world and all the beauty in it and maybe youll see that its accualy you living in youre own reality and there acually is a biger picture out there that youre not seeing...

[Evi]

Devil May Cry sucking is like...*insert cool thing to say here*...it\'s ridiculous.  It\'s an awesome game.  I can understand if you didn\'t like it a little, but you must have spent half of your day typing that BS.

Sheesh, man. :rolleyes:

Side note: Go back and refer to ddaryl\'s post...

WORLDS BIGGEST DMC LOVER !

Many of guys are missing the whole point I am trying to articulate.....

What has really change in the past 5 years?  Think REAL hard:  Nothing!

This year you will play GT3, MGS2, and FFX.......

Next year you will play GT4, MGS3, FFXI.......

The year after that you will play GT5, MGS3, FFXII.....

You guys ridicule Shenmue.....

Little do you realize or respect its ingenuity. Games like these are the ones who revolutionize and foster the new generation. Yet you shun it. You are the same guys who ostacized VF and Wolfenstein 3D on their inception...

Without realizing if there were no VF there would be no Tekken. If there were no Wolfenstein 3D, there would be no Red Faction. If there were no Shenmue......

I am plain pissed off.....


Think about it. We see progression and flowering growth in every prospect of our society, but our videogame industry is at a grinding halt. It is static and advancement is slow and delayed.  

In contrast to others....

Like the car industry for instance.....

If the PS2 is a prime example....we would still be driving a 85\', 2 cyclinder engine with low gas mileage, no air bags and such, but the car would have a nice outside sugar coating with a new model...

What I am trying to say is....

As good as these graphics look, gameplay has not progress much. The PS2\'s self reliance on rehashes is hurting the industry....

By rehashes, I mean, a recycle idea that lacks progression.

Note: A sequel does not neccessarily mean it is a rehash. For example, look at the Zelda series. Each game transcends the series to new innovative heights. Now take a look at the Tomb Raider series....that is a rehash.

Sony, in contrast to other companies, rely heavily on these rehashes. What has really change in the last 6 years? Think real hard: NOTHING!

There is no progress....zilch....nada!

This year you will play the exact same game you played 4 years ago.....and the year after that, the cycle repeats......the only difference might be 20,000 polygons....woo f*ckin wee!

It might be sugar coated with a different story, 1 or 2 more levels, new music...but it is the exact same game....

Those are rehashes and Sony breeds and exerts them.

Devil May Cry repeats the cycle.  It is just another sorry rehash....

Think Sword of Berzerk in a Resident Evil environment....WOW THAT IS SO INNOVATIVE!!!!!!

Imagine a videogame world without StreetFighter 2, Virtua Fighters, Virtua Racing, Super Mario Bros., Mario 64, Wolfenstein 3D.......

Those were revolutionary, risk-taking softwares that transcended our industry to new heights.....

Rehashes will get us nowhere, trust me.....

Your anxieties are focused on a much too narrow conclusion.

First of all, Sony is not responsible for software rehashes.  Sony merely made the hardware for companies to use and while their hardware has been proclamied as innovative and ground breaking, you target them as the deliverer of these rehashes.  Ico, although only one game, was created by Sony and that game in itself is unlike any other, but please note, it is the only game Sony has made in awhile besides Okage, an RPG of sorts that has a fairly original concept.

The people you shoul dbe focusing your blame on are those of the software developers.  Capcom themselves admit to being a company who can make sequels to anything and although I do admit that there is a likeness between sword of the berzerk and Devil May Cry, DMC is the game that improved upon that formula with a game that is really fun to play, albeit short and slighty drawn out.

The problem with all software in general is that of the producers like MS with OS\' or Capcom with sequels or any other company who tries to profit off a popular idea with a rehash of sorts.  Creating a videogame nowadays is a very costly venture totaling well into many millions of dollars and companies require a quick sell to make up for the money spent, even if that means sticking with a brand name and producing a formula that is widely known and easy to understand at the expense of innovation.

Innovation is a rare thing in this industry and games are heading in the way of PC software where the best version available is the same one as brand C, just with less bugs or a more friendly interface.  The developers are to blame for this, but since we all love games and would never turn down a chance to play a newer version no matter the slightest change, these games will be made.

So you can be mad at the consumer and you can be mad at the developer, but don\'t force all of your hatred onto Sony.  All companies are guilty of it in one way or another and that\'s just a sad fact.  Nintendo, a company which you approve of thanks to its Zelda franchise, is guilty of reusing characters in almost all of its large title releases in one way or another.  You can hate the industry for not evolving to bring the influental games forward like they did so long ago, but with the economy and our willingness to buy rehashes, can you really even blame anyone at all?  You\'re just as guilty as the rest of us for buying them anyways.

You still call DMC a rehash?

What game is it a rehash of ole wise one:rolleyes: It\'s not a resident evil rehash.

Your not making any sense in your post anyway, as Ryu already stated.  Come back when you can make an attempt at a review that is worth reading, not just some bash towards one of the BEST ps2 games there is.  Ogodly, looks like we found your long lost twin. DMC is a brand new game,  which is good, capcom needed a new franchise.

Yo Tshirts,

the biggest reason for getting sequels to games like GT3 or MGS2 is that they sold a huge azz number of copies when they were "fresh", so the companies behind these games try to cash in on the sequels. $$$
The only reason they do em, for the most part, is because lots of kids buy em,… even if some sequels suck…

I’m waiting for DMC2 now !

Tshirts,

Name me the X-box games that \'break the mold\' with their incredible innovation and style? Really, I\'m serious.

C\'mon now. I\'m waiting. Hmm,. la la la, waiting. For real now. Name me some. *whistles* ...  Wow, so many.

The answer is a simple one. Here\'s a hint. NONE.

Though I\'m sure you\'ll come up with your own reasons why Munch and Halo are a godsend.

/ dm /

I can\'t wait \'til MGS3...

It\'s real hyposcrital when you say PS2 is full of rehashes while the system your supporting the most only has one innovative game.

The answer is a simple one. Here\'s a hint. NONE.

Project Ego. Where have you been?

Well if we go by that, then The Bouncer would have been classified as an innovative game.  So far, we have not seen anything that shows us that Project Ego will be all that it\'s hyped up to be.  It could turn out to be another "The Bouncer."  Until we see more proof, I won\'t believe it.  I don\'t want to be disappointed like I was with The Bouncer.

Comparing Ego to Bouncer? That\'s pretty sad. If you don\'t want to be disapointed in Ego then what\'s not stopping you from being so ****ing interested in Jak and Dexter? Or any other game for that matter? Sounds like someone has a bias.

Bouncer can\'t be classified as been innovative because it brought absolutely nothing new into the gaming. No need to elaborate here.

It\'s obvious you haven\'t read a preview of this game. Check one out at IGNXBox. Pretty much the only reason why I\'ll most likely buy the Xbox.

Come on Jumpman.  I\'m not bashing Project Ego.  I just don\'t want to be disappointed like I was with The Bouncer.  You remember what The Bouncer was going to be don\'t you?  The preview had guys jumping over tables and using just about any object they could find to battle with.  It was amazing.  But then we got the garbage named The Boucer, which was nothing like it was hyped up to be.  I don\'t want to be waiting a whole year for a game only to be let down in the end.  Sure, it could be an amazing game that causes millions of people to buy an Xbox (including me), but there is also a chance that it might not be.

Finish this saying:  If it sounds too good to be true...

Project Ego. Where have you been?

Right.. but I was referring to launch games.
