Devil May Cry 4
Reviewer: CVG29 April 2009What helps is that Devil May Cry's become pretty lenient about how it doles out its perks. Although you still use red orbs to buy new skills - like a double-jump, improved combos or chargeable shots - you can sell them back for the same amount, so it's a simple question of mixing and matching attributes until you find your own style. This comes in even more useful when Dante tags himself in for the game's second half - the older demon slayer's got four different styles,... Read more

So Devil May Cry 4 leaves me wanting more just like the first 3 did. It plays great, looks great and sounds great. It’s also something that the 360 just doesn’t have any of, and that’s character action games. Give it a go, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Read more

Reviewer: Eurogamer02 May 2008- Overall 7
When we finished DMC3, we wondered what Capcom would do with new hardware. The answer is not an awful lot. The visuals are better, the combat's more accessible, the upgrade system's pleasingly flexible, but in practically every other sense Capcom has passed up the opportunity to do something new and exciting. After more than seven years, the Devil May Cry series finds itself in the same kind of safe, reliable trough that Resident Evil was in before Resi 4. DMC4 can still... Read more

When the original Devil May Cry was released on the PlayStation 2 back in 2001 it quickly became an instant hit, obviously in the years to come it was followed by two sequels yet, for me these never left the same impression as the original. Now the series makes its next generation debut, and thankfully the game has made a similar impression as the original. Read more
