A new game in itself

The creators of this game had the right idea. And they did an alright job at it. Action is everywhere. Non-stop. Sometimes that gets old, while other times it is just what you want. Bosses can be quite tough, that is a downside. SOmetimes too tough, especially at the beginning of the game when you have little developed skills and items to recover. I got frustrated a lot first playing this game. But I must say, once you get over those first few humps and start developing those needed skills, this game is action packed and you really get into. The action then is always fun. 4 stars with the slow and frustrating beginning as the downside.

Awesome gameplay and graphics, but short

The title of my review really says it all. The gameplay is tons of fun and really addictive. The smooth transition between combos and combining of swords and firearms makes for some interesting battles. It really does look like something out of "The Matrix." The only problem is that the game is relatively short. It's of good length, just not really comparable to an RPG. At 20 bucks, though, it's a must have. It's be worth every dollar at that price and you'd be crazy not to buy it.

I first played this game when it was an included demo along with Resident Evil: Code Veronica X for the Playstation 2 way back when. Ever since then, I've been addicted to this game. Instead of the slow pace one would have originally expected from the game (seeing as it was originally intended to be a Resident Evil title) the game is fast, furious, and full of incredibly enjoyable action gameplay. From the first moment of getting a key off a marionette to flying an airplane out of a collapsing mountain, the game never ceases to be one of the most enjoyable gameplay experiences not only on the PS2, but of any game ever released. It is a true classic and is something that should be played by everyone. And for those who enjoy difficulty in their games, once you beat normal, there is hard, and the incredibly hard (I seriously broke my controller playing this mode) DMD (Dante Must Die). Considering this is now availible for quite cheap here on Amazon.com along with everywhere else, there is almost no excuse not to pick up this game if you for some reason haven't yet.

HANDS DOWN THE BEST PS2 GAME EVER....

It's rare that I give a game 5 stars, but this is a very, very rare game. Devil May Cry is, lets put it this way...IT'S NOOOOO RESIDENT EVIL(thank god). This game is amazing, it's sylish, it has nice fast pace action and it's overall a masterpiece and incredibly underrated. Unlike Resident Evil which you must conserve ammo for your weapons THIS GAME WANT'S YOU TO KILL EVERYTHING IN YOUR SITE. It's incredible, and there are tons of stuff like saving up orbs to buy power ups or new moves but the moves you already start with are just fine and good to get use to untill you start spending cash.

The games visuals are amazing, best looking PS2 game I think. I'll make this short and Sweet!

Good
-amazing visuals
-stylish Fighting and gun blazing action
-Dante rules
-awesome level desighn
-awesome boss desighn
-AWESOME EVERYTHING

Bad
-Too short...I beat it in 9 hours
-DO NOT BUY DMC2...
-This game has 3 settings and easy is REALLY EASY

The good.......again
-Devil May Cry 3 will probably suprass this and be the best ps2 game ever..ehehehhe

Overall...GET THIS GAME...THAT'S IT..I'M DONE..

5 OUT OF 5 STARS.

I love the gothic atmosphere it rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had this game for a couple years now and I only beat it 2 times.This game has very smooth controls and the graphics are some of the best I have seen since FFX and Onimusha Trilogy.The game was a bit short with only 23 missions but it is a challenge.Over all this is one of the best games on the PS2 and I cannot wait for the new Devil May Cry 3!!!!!!!!

Everybody knows that Capcom has a knack for creating new and cool franchises like Resident Evil and Mega Man and the like. Well, add Devil May Cry to the list because it will knock your socks off! This is without a doubt, one of the most unique and addictive action games to come along in a while. First, the graphics, while seems a little outdated now, are still pretty amazing. The backgrounds are greatly detailed. Enemies look fantastic, and Dante himself is awesome and is one of the best video-game characters ever made. How can you not like the guy? Music is pretty good, and the voice-acting is thankfully not like Resident Evil, but still nowhere near the level of MGS quality. Controls are near perfect, with the camera the only fault on here. Like any Capcom game, DMC has a good level of replay value. You can unlock a "Easy Automatic" difficulty, so first timers can enjoy it. But if you're a true gamer, you must play it in Normal, which is pretty tricky. Then there's Hard, which is, to say the least, hard( DUH! ), and of course, the ultimate setting, Dante Must Die, which is...well, I'll let you figure that out for yourself. Beat the last 2 difficulties and you unlock another character and unlimited Devil Trigger. What will draw people in is the action and the unlimited ammo, which is the best thing about the game, as is it would have been pretty lame to collect ammo while fighting demons. I only had a few minor problems, though. One is, while the replay value is pretty good, the game is still a little on the short side, but the difficulties should make up for that. Also, the camera can be an annoyance from time to time. The story, while decent, could be a little better. But that's just me. I highly recommend Devil May Cry to any gamer, whether you be an action, RPG, or whatever, I guarentee you will enjoy this. A 5 out of 5. This is Sean David, signing off.

Until next time,
Semper Fi, Carry On.

Dante, Dante, Dante! ^_^

This game is awesome. ^_^ I'm bad at it though, if you consider the many people already on Dante Must Die mode, or even Super Dante mode.

The controls are great and easy to use, except when you're underwater and it switches to first-person view. Or it could be that I just stink at first-person shooters. XD

The graphics are wonderful, if you consider how old this game is. I could compare them with Final Fantasy's easily ((not including Final Fantasy's CG scenes though)).

The plot is okay, not blow-your-mind butt-kicking good though. This game only lasts about eight hours, or less, if you absolutely rock at action games.

You know you're reviewing a perfect game when you have to look up new ways to say great in a thesaurus.

Fluid Gameplay... Weak Ending...

When I purchased this game I was hoping for a great Resident Evil Like game. After all this game was by the creators of Resident Evil. The Introduction cut scene was awesome and so is a few cutscenes. The whole greatness of the game is how fluid the gameplay is. You just feel awesome playing as the Badass Half Demon half human Dante. He has awesome moves, awesome weapons, awesome techniques! What more can you ask in gameplay where you can Jump like gravity barely affects you, fight like as if superman cant even beat you. The graphics are amazing but not incredibly amazing as other Capcom titles. Now what is the downside you say?! First off there is way too many enemies that keep coming back. Secondly the bosses later on are incredibly (well not impossible) and your best chances are to waste your red orbs on holy water, and devil stars. Lastly the gameplay is so short and the ending sucks as hell! I mean common when somebody dies let them die! Plus what kind of name change is Devil Never Cry?! That sounds retarded... Overall I'll give this A- or even a B+. Go buy the game now since it's cheap! I really want to play the second game but after all teh bad reviews about the storyline...well lets say if the storyline here sux then I'm scared!! Oh well enough said! Gameplay rox, Ending scene sux!

Game play: HIgh
Controls: medium
Cutscenes: Medium (Ending scene drops it down)
Bosses: low

DMC ROCKS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
