Prologue:
Accrding to legend, 2000 years ago while snow was falling on a clear, freezing night on Earth, a fierce devil price was born deep in the darkest pit of the netherworld.
He grew rapidly. Within a short time he gained his full powers and took over the Devil Throne. His first act as ruler of all devils was to declare himself emperor of the Devil Kingdom. His next feat was an invasion of the human world. His plan was to conquer it and rule over both the lower and upper realms.
But a powerful devil-knight known as Sparda took pity ok humans for their brief, transient lives. In fierce battles he defeated all the Devil ruler's armies and finally imprisioned the emperor himself in a sealed vault.
Having acheived his victory, Sparda abandoned the Devil Kingdom to live in the human world. He married a human woman and soon fathered a half devil, half human son.
But beware, mankind. After 2000 years, the cursed Devil Emperor will be released and will return to invade the human world once again.
Sparda's son must be our protector! The one who calls himself Dante....
If Dante Succeeds His Mission, The Devil May Cry.

This Game Is Probably The Best Devil May Cry Game out. It Takes Place Right After Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening. You Can Battle An Onslaught of Demonic Marionettes, Unearthy Phantoms, Grim Reapers, Sin Scissors, And Other Souls.
Graphics Are Almost Perfect.
As You Play With Dante Throughout The Game You Can Collect New Weapons And Upgrades To Increase His Vitality. At One Point There Is A Symboled Gauge Under Dante's Vitality Bar Which Is Known As His Devil Trigger Gauge. Once Its Full, You Can Press The L1 Button To Transform In His Devil Form, Which Can Really Help Out In Harder Times. Collecting Red Orbs Throughout The Game Will Allow You to Buy Items From the God Of Time. You Can Also Buy Skills For The Alastor And Ifrit Weapons To Pull Off Amazing Moves. There Are 4 Modes In The Game.
Easy Automatic: Really Easy. Combos Will Be Automatic Depending On The Situation Dante Is in.
Normal: Slightly Hard. You Have To Pull Off Combos Without Automatic Help. You Have To Also Aim To Shoot Your Gun.
Hard: Oh Boy It Get Tough In This mode. The Enemies Are Alot Harder Now As They Will Try To Annoy You The Whole Time.
Dante Must Die: Holy Sh!t. The Enemies Are Like 100x harder And They Took Drugs. THEY'RE ALSO 50x FASTER THAN THEY WERE!!
So Thats the Mode Lowdown. If You Practice Alot Then The Modes Should Be Easy For You And You May Beat Dante Must Die Mode.

Another Feature Is Ranking. There Are 5 Ranks In The Game
D-Rank
C-Rank
B-Rank
A-Rank
S-Rank
Of Course S-Rank Is the Highest, But It Takes Alot of Ass-Whoopin To Get There. Mostly You Should Get An Average Around A B or C Ranking. D Ranking Means That Your Not Trying Hard Enough Or Your just New In The Game.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Learning Curve Is Around 30 Minute Because Of No Tutorial. So You Have To Figure Out The Skills And Combos By Yourself. Other Than That it Pays Off By Playing The Game And Learning What To Do.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This Game Is A Must. You Can Collect All The Series To See How Dante Fufills His Destiny. Watch Out For The Newest Sequel To the Devil May Cry Series: Devil May Cry 4.
