    Devil May Cry 3 was another one of my favorite PS2 games. (I didn't play that many PS2 games though.)

    That's supposedly how Atlus got Capcom to let them use Dante in Nocturne, which is probably the only good thing DMC2 ever produced.

    God, DMC2 is probably the worst game I've ever purchased. I still won't touch that franchise.

    DMC 3 and 4 were a lot of fun! Never played DMC1, though.

    Nocturne was the first game I'd ever played with Dante, and I thought he was awesome.

    Then I play 3 and he's this young wisecracking jerk.

    Young wisecracking Dante is leagues better than grim far-future coin-flipping no-fun Dante.

    That's what I hear. I can only assume Nocturne made the best of the version everyone hates.


    I've never played DMC2, just 3.

    DMC3 was really good.

    4 was kind of shit then it got good kind of (you play through the same exact levels with the way more interesting/awesome character) then it went back to shit.

    I like how the guys running the franchise now have said DMC2 is set way in some murky future so they can keep making games without ever having to deal with that time period again.

    Like who really sat down at the development meetings for DMC4 and said "I'm thinking we should have a new lead to make the series seem fresh again. And let's have him look and act basically like Dante except less interesting and more annoying. Also let's have Dante show up anyway to have the contrast be made perfectly clear."

    Nero was kinda whiny but I didn't think he was THAT bad. Some of the tricks with the arm were kinda cool, and there was something about the silly motorcycle throttle sword that I really enjoyed.

    I'm of the opinion that in most cases Capcom has no idea what the fuck it's doing and, despite this, they somehow end up with a fairly good product. Or Lost Planet 2.

    it probably caters to a very specific sort of japanese kid playin' these games

    his design is that some sort of mcdonalds convergence model

    clothing is red, so your eyes'll be fixated on him

    and if those many flips he performs throw your eyes off balance he's got bright white hair

    he talks like a douchebag, he wears leather and his sword is preposterously huge

    there's taking yourself too seriously and that fact illiciting chuckles and there's dante, where there's a chuckle and a smirk. you just thinking, man this shit is silly but hey that cutscene let me know what i was in for

    DMC3 is the best in my view though.

    That game had some beautiful scenes.

    You could rev it up a couple times before striking and it gave more power to the blow. If you hit the rev button as you struck, with the right timing, you could chain a bunch of turbo swings.

    when you meet a character who is stabbed through the chest with a sword to survive and respond rather nonchalant it kinda sets a tone

    OH MY GOD
    I AM BUILDING A METAL GEAR

    OUTER HEAVEN ALL UP IN THIS FUCK




    only

    the first metal gear was developed for outer heaven by dr. pettrovich madnar in garzburg south africa

    not by otacon's goddamned dad on a costa rican oil platform

    and certainly not that metal gear raxa garbage from portable ops


    the retconning is getting to the point that it's kind of bugging me

    I'm with you on that one, Knob.

    Like in Snake Eater, I'm supposed to believe that the next-generation of mechanized super weapons was developed by a drunk, Russian dude 50 years before?

    Come on, I bought into nanomachines and magic arms, but that was just too damn much.

    And no, that isn't me being ironic. That was dumb. Grey Fox in every single game dumb.

    They are. Rex was made by Granin, a rival to Sokolov, who sent it to Hal Emmerich as revenge to the Soviets who chose Sokolov's project over his. Hell hath no fury like a Russian booze-hound scientist scorned, I guess.
