Well DMC was the first game out but storywise you should definitely start with DMC3 because it's a prequal and tells the story of Dante from the beginning. BTW DMC2 has got nothing to do with the DMC story because it's set in the distant future plus the game is very lacklustre, fun for only 10 min.

I'm personally starting from 1. I still consider prequels sequels, basically.

Yea, I suggest starting with the first one. While DMC3 is technically before DMC1 in terms of the story, DMC3's gameplay is largely changed and refined from DMC1; so you may find yourself dissapointed with DMC1's combat if you started with 3 first.

start with 1 so there'll be an air of 'suspense' and 'mystery' as you play. Then play the 3rd one, followed by the second one. Its just a suggestion but I think this is the best way to play it (I did); although you'll notice the difference in the graphics when you jump from the 3rd to the 2nd when you play in this manner.

The first one. I played DMC1 and DMC3 and I liked the original better. DMC3 gets pretty repetitive after awhile.:D

Do them in order if you are going to wind up playing all three.

DMC3 slightly edges out the first one for me, while the second one has almost been wiped from my mind......................almost. **shudders**

yes, start with 1, it can give you a decent idea of the comat since 3 is really just it but expanded and very nice... and like everyone else has basically said do not play #2 at all, ever. Just do something very violent with it...

Just play any one of them however you like it.

It's not like story is important in Devils May Cry series.
