Devil May Cry 1 was one of the best sword-slicing and gun-shooting games. I really love it when you do more combo the words on the screen changes from dull to cool to stylish to devilish... Just makes me want to do more combos everytime. And I just love Dante's attitude, talk trash to the bad guys but yet has a warm heart. Even it is just a 1 play game I had lots of fun with it. Then it came DMC 2, I was expecting it to be even better than the first one, maybe better graphics, more moves, add some extra mini-games to make the game has more replay value... But noooooo, not did the game NOT improve on graphics, I think it looks even worst, or maybe I just have been playing too much FFX. The backgrounds look like something from Resident Evil, all gooey and distorted. I really liked the gothic setting of DMC1. The extra moves, like running on the wall and shooting both ways are not all that useful. Then there is this most annoying camera angles when it comes to boss fights, half the time you can't even see where the boss is. And the auto lock-on thing is stupid. The whole game was just disappointing... Capcom what are you guys doing?

DMC2 was handled by a totally different crew -- guess they tried some experiments and tweaked around....relative to DMC1, it wasn't as stylish, but it still had some great boss designs...

Yeah, I think the first one was better too.

It should have been Lucia May Cry. lol But seriously, the game isn't as good as the first in my humble opinion. The only thing that I like in 2 that the 1 one didn't have is that the storyline comes at you hard and fast. I just didn't care for the crappy way of describing the missions. In the first one, they say do this this and this. The second one tries to be cryptic and ends up being a stupid superhero story. Yuck.

manual? I never even use it.... Unless it was a good game I might want to look into the manual and see what is in it but otherwise, they are kind of useless to me...

there's this massive backstory in the DMC2 manual about this race and that race and so on...that was the only element of story in the game and it was in the manual

well...i also agreed tat DMC 2 is kinda sux...but the coolest thing is more combo and cool stunt dante can do...but i hate lucia...doesnt mean 2 critisize but she's a little less stronger than dante...and if DMC2 is a reality i think dante can beat all of the bosses and monster easily...just like the last boss...he doesnt even seem a little scared...ohh and his qoute ''don't speak...just die'' and ''king?yeahh..here's ur crown'' and my favorite qoute...

DMC2 focused more on gameplay then "makin dante talk more smack"
lol imo dantes smack talk was just funny in the first game. i dont like the fact they took out the whole sword launcher keep them up in the air with hand guns. i wish they had just expanded the game more, i mean they did add a new character, but they both play identically, plus in must die modes you have to play safe anyway, kinda makes it boring.(But then again the first one was too easy) ehh, GO GET THE NEW CASTLEVANIA!! ^^ which is what gave capcom the idea for dmc anyway >.> lol

DMC2 focused on gameplay? DMC2 focused more on style than anything else -- diesel jeans anyone?

lol well its not like the gameplay was too complicated anyway. they expanded it as much as they could with the new triggers and abilities and what not. if they had focused on style dante woulda been back at his old smack talk. lol i did like the detail with lucia's thong though, its so accented like you cant miss it. lol
