Because it's actuallly entertaining for some people.

Myself being one of those people. And everyone else who has atested the same.

It's fun, the storyline of the series has some depth and doesn't really go bland. It's just a matter of personal opinion.

Weapon and fighting styles are very cool and it's over-the-top action which can be awesome sometimes.

*shrug*

I don't know. I never understood the appeal. I got the first one, started it up, watched the intro, was intrigued by the potential for adrenaline-pumping "stylized action", as Capcom put it, started the game, and then... then I was wandering around an old castle on a meandering collect-a-thon while stabbing marionettes.

Allow me to restate that: You, Dante, bad-ass extrordinare, are are fighting PUPPETS.

That just killed it for me. I quit after a couple of levels and never looked back.

DMC 1 was awesome, DMC 2 sucked, way too easy. You should try DMC 3 though. They really did make the series better again. The storyline in all 3 was pretty lame, but the gameplay in 1 and 3 was amazing.

I've played a bit of DMC3, and it's ok. Just nowhere as good as Ninja Gaiden.

Dante's script is just horrible. He's a corny, loud-mouthed d-bag. When he surfed on a rocket, I almost switched the game off because it was that ridiculous. But I looked past it, and the gameplay isn't that bad.

DMC3 faithfully restores the series, if you're going to try it, make sure you get the original and not the Special Edition.

Same here. I loved the first one and it was probably one of my favorite games of all time.

Second one..not so much.

That's a bad reason and you know it.

That sounds like a pretty good reason to stop to me.
The gameplay was boring with most of the time spend hunting for items and the enemies were puppets. Freakin' puppets. Any sense of intensity or atmosphere just went out the window.

I bought DMC hoping for a game brimming with over-the-top action in an intense, atomspheric, and heavily stylized experience. Instead I found myself hunting for items while stabbing puppets.
Needless to say, I was disappointed.

The dialogue in that game is lackluster! "It's gonna be one hell of a party!" WTF!?

I'm still not conviced that you gave it a fair shot.  But hey, that's just me, maybe the game isn't your cup of tea.  Which I can understand.

Why are we bashing DMC? I thought SW only bashed exclusives? Since DMC4 is coming out for every system that matters, let's all say that Dante is awesome and move on.

Devil May Cry are awesome games, the next best thing next go Ninja Gaiden. The lines are a bit corny(DMC3), but after seeing DMC4, it seems they have adressed that issue. Gameplay is top notch, because its more about doing stylish combos rather that just being able to kill the enemy.

People who play DMC1 TODAY will say its a disapointment or over rated, but i can sure say when that game launched back in 2001, that game was the best thing on playstation 2. DMC2 was a dispointment, no doubt. DMC3 ruled, and DMC4 looks quite promising.

I agree, what's wrong with the SE? I thought it was geared more towards newcomers.

What made DMC1 great was it's difficulty, and I heard DMC3: SE lowered the difficulty level from DMC3 due to complaints of the normal mode being 'too hard.' I'm just recommending the original DMC3 just for the challenge it offers right off the bat.

Devil May Cry is one of my favorite franchises! I guess I like it because of it's gameplay and combos you can pull off-- also the cutscenes are amazing. I can't wait until DMC4. I'm pretty interested in playing as Nero-- Dante is of course my favorite and I was a bit dissapointed that he wasn't the main character but Nero is seriously packing.

Pretty much exactly my point.  DMC revolutionized the 3D action adventure slash 'em ups or whatever you wanna call them.  It should get more credit for doing so.
