Devil May Cry 4 Review

yup.. its needs to be pulled out..


The Hack and Slack business seems to be on demand this days, demons and monster are popping out like a boy who just reached puberty. Well I guess some one needs to get their hands dirty and who else will clean the crap bags non other than the Devil Boy himself.. but not this sequel. You step in the long boots of Nero. A grey haired, metro sexual orphan raised by the Order. Not much none of his past, or how did he got his demonic right arm.. a cold resemblance of a younger Dante. Sound like a cut-and-paste basis for new character. (Can it get anymore original?) Seriously, where did he came from?

As any hack and slash game base genre, everything is as fast, agile and insanely riveting. Playing Nero is as identical as the Son Of Sparta, except for the demonic arm. You grab, throw and solve puzzles thoughout the levels. Boss levels are impressive as the level themselves. Fluid animation, bright colours and fast paced. Story lines are as long as the cutscenes for both Nero and Dante. ( Metal Gear Solid 4 anyone?)

Playing Dante, on the other hand, doesnt have any demonic arm to begin with, but has a repertoire of weapons. Other than his trusty Rebellion, and his dual guns, Ebony and Ivory, which brings a good mesh of crazy combos when youve master the trigger happy fingers. On the gen games, you dont have to go to a checkpoint to change weapons, with a quick press of a button on the D pad, you change your weapons in real time. Ultimately increasing your combos to a the next level. Awesome...

Devil May Cry 4 maybe a next gen game, but some what has a last gen gameplay, just adding top notch next gen graphic and in high definition. However, for the Die-hard Devil May Cry fans, (like ME!!) its a definite must buy game. Devil May Cry 4 is worth 4 Demons out of 5..
