From the producer of the original Devil May Cry and Resident Evil 4 comes the next instalment in the hugely successful stylized action series that has so far achieved global sales of nearly seven million units. Devil May Cry 4 immerses gamers in a gothic supernatural world, where a new protagonist clashes with a familiar hero. As the new leading man, Nero, players will unleash incredible attacks and non-stop combos using a unique new gameplay mechanic, his powerful “Devil Bringer” arm.

Devil May Cry 4.. oh the overhype!
| Author's Rating: |

Pros: Pretty graphics.. sadly that's it.
Cons: Boring, boring, boring
The Bottom Line:
No, don't waste your money.
I've been a devoted fan of the Devil May Cry series ever since it came out, but it seems the Devil games go from Good (Devil May Cry 1) -> Bad (Devil May Cry 2) -> Good (Devil May Cry 3).. and then to bad again with Devil May Cry 4.
The storyline of Devil May Cry 4 is extremely cheesy, with some Order of that is trying to bring demons into the human world.. or something equally boring. It's now up to Nero, with the help of Dante and his gang, to stop the bad guys. And there you go, there's Devil May Cry 4's (badly scrapped) storyline in a nutshell. There's also random plot holes, such as why does Nero have his powers. What happened to the awesome story lines of Devil May Cry 1 and 3, Capcom?
The characters are also mixed. Nero is a Dante clone in design, Lady's outfit is too revealing for a character that appears in the game for 5 minutes max, and Gloria and Trish are fanboy droolfests. Everyone else, unfortunately, is too boring to mention at all.
Devil May Cry overall is a shot at a decent game in the Devil May Cry franchise, but ultimately fails and feels too much like a cheesy rehash of the previous games. Although the graphics are beautiful and Nero's fighting mechanics are fun, those aspects do not save Devil May Cry 4 from ultimate failure.
I'd stick with this game going back to Hell.. and staying there.
