This game had me spending hours away from everyone
I ORGASMED WHENEVER I PLAYED THIS GAME!
I love the Devil May Cry series more than I like the Resident Evil series and about as much as I love the Metal Gear Solid series.
Anyways! through most of the game you'll play as Nero, a pretty much average looking 20 year old from your average bad ass anime, Nero is just plain bad ass. So is Dante.. minus the damn boots in this... I hated those boots... Umm anyways,
Controls are very good, and very responsive, and sometimes makes me feel like I'm actually swinging the sword. The thing I love about this one compared to the other games is that it's more sword based like if you chose blademaster in DMC3 as opposed to other games: 1st one was great at balancing out shooting and sword. 2nd game... I could have beaten the whole damn game with just guns, which took the fun out of it...
Graphics, arn't amazing, but sometimes the scenery was beautiful looking. Nero looks good, Dante looks good, Kiria looks good, Trish and Lady look go- BOOBS :D er.. good looking, any major character looks good. So do enemies.
Sound is good, music is good, fighting music repeats though... luckily evey zone has different music. My favorite music in the whole game is the music for the idol of time and space which is where you will buy your abilities, upgrades for known moves and items.
Combat as i said is very good and fun, timing some of you attacks like the time after you press a button can be stronger attacks and so on. The Devil Bringer, which is Nero's very special unique ability is fun to play around with.
Story, at first is kind of like a panic, like you don't know what's going on everything is confusing, then BAM you get a hold of it not to far in
I'm not going to ruin it for anybody so play it to see, I will say I think it's a better story than the other games.
Replay value, since they added the new ranking system, you can guess from there. The game still has that platform fighting thing from the 3rd game after you beat it where you just fight enemies.
Over all I highly reccommend the game weather you have a PS3 or a 360
