DMC Devil May Cry: Definitive Edition - PlayStation 4

DmC: Devil May Cry: Definitive Edition is the re-release of the game that came out for PS3 and Xbox 360 a few years back.Simply put: its awesome. They took everything that was great about DmC to begin with and made it better. Smoother graphics, a solid 60 fps, 1080p resolution, and they added in all the DLC including the story expansion, as well as the Bloody Palace mode, skins for Dante, weapon skins and a new "turbo mode" that increases the game speed by 20%. The best part is there is no download required, all of the content is on the disc.So what is DmC? DmC (Devil May Cry) follows the exploits of Dante, a young, brash, rebellious young man with the gift of incredible swordsman skills and an expert marksman. Dante is the son of a demon, Sparda, who betrayed his master, Mundus by falling in love with an angel. This makes Dante a cross breed, or "Nephilim" meaning Dante is bestowed with both Demonic and Angelic powers. Due to his father's betrayal, Mundus murders Dante's mother and sends his father to eternal damnation as punishment. It's up to Dante to avenge his parents and put an end to Mundus' reign. Along the way, Dante crosses paths with some allies with incredible powers as he shifts between the real world and limbo, trying to find the answer to his past and determine his future.This is an action hack and slash game, all about epic set pieces, and an amazing combat engine focusing on vicious, nasty combos and insanely fast speeds. The action is intense.I don't understand the hate this game received from old school Devil May Cry fans. It's a reboot, but a damn good one. Ninja Theory did an incredible job on it.Parents Warning: This game is loaded with blood, gore, and extremely graphic language.

Let me start off by saying I have the original ps3 version of this game and I purchased this one to play on my ps4 because that’s the system I use nowadays . I was surprised and excited to find that this definitive edition version of this game had all the character skins and the item finder included for free with the game when the ps3 version you have to pay actual money for all those extras so that’s a great plus . So much nostalgia and fun with this game ! I’ve played other DMC games but this one always stuck with me as my all time favorite ! I know this game gets a lot of hate but I actually love the storyline contrary to what others say. I think it is a well thought out interesting story . The cut scenes are enjoyable to watch and the soundtrack is amazing, fits perfectly to the game ! If you’ve never played this DMC game before I highly recommend, it’s a good game to add to your collection !

Great product

+ Okay plot, they tried to tell a story and while it's not the best it's acceptable.+ Stylish action.+ Really nice aesthetics. The saturated colors add a lot of personality to the game.+ The platforming is fun.+ Voice acting is generally good.+ A few cringe-y moments are "so bad it's good."+ Combat is satisfying.+ Soundtrack is fine.+ Has replay value.+ Unlocking the art gallery pictures is somewhat addicting.+ Good for newcomers.+ Definitive edition improvements to combat make the experience much better.- The game feels a little short.- The Vergil DLC is okay but feels like little effort was put into it.- Mundus boss battle is terrible.- It's a generally easy game, though some may like that.- Needed to be more polished, a few times while on the main menu (though never while playing the story) the game has crashed.- The other DLC content like the outfits and weapon skins are negligible.- Combat, though it may be satisfying for newcomers, is not as deep and has fewer options than some previous Devil may Cry games.- In other words many devoted fans of the franchise may find this entry to be lacking.All in all, it's a fine game that tries to do many things but isn't exceptional in any of them except maybe the aesthetic design. 7.5/10
