    Game: Devil May Cry 4

    For those who loved DMC 1 and 3, and forgot 2 ever existed ...

    The Magic Box on DMC4

    Wikipedia on DMC4

    Looks like its back on but "Dante is going to play a hostile role" ... If I have to fight him, I wouldn't be able to do it ... too many memories ><

    It looks good, but it just isnt DMC without Dante!

    Well they said a hostile role, doesn't mean he will be the main villian, maybe just an uncontrollable character.

    From what I read, Nero (side note: hes named after the program I use to burn dvds ^_^), is one of the Knights who protects a religious gorup. Dante is hunting down these knights.

    I hope he's not the main villian though =D

    Knowing Capcom, Dante will most probably become another unlockable character, like how Sparda was in the previous games.

    I love the Devil May Cry series, but it just sucks Dante isn't in it . So lets hope Nero's bad ass.
    No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you when he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on, I am your teacher."

    Well he does have a glowing fire hand, so he has to be right? RIGHT?

    Sucks that you don't get to play as Dante. I was really liking his new crack addict look too!

    Nero better be worthwhile... if he's the standardized naive and helpful protagonist I will murder someone. He needs attitude and viciousness if he seeks to replace Dante.

    I don't know if it's fair to call them all button-mashers. I mean sure, you can get through by button mashing on the easier difficulties in DMC3... but try that shit in DMD mode and you will get your ass handed to you on a silver platter. You need technique and carefully executed attacks.

    If Dante is an unlockable, hopefully he'll get his own set of levels showing how his side of the story is going. Playing as Vergil in the DMC3 Special Edition was cool with his own slew of moves but...the same levels? It would've been nice to actually fight Dante as well, instead of a Vergil clone with red clothes. Plus, I wanted to see some more conversations between him and Lady's father like the intro. I was disappointed by the Special Edition. =/

    But this game looks like it will be good.
    This fantastic Sousuke sig was made by the one and only Lucifus! Thanks man!

    Yeah, I'm still playing DMC3 on Dante Must Die mode ... and wow ... Yeah try button smashing your way through that then cry when the 2nd mob type (the red ones with the scythes) rape 1/4 - 1/3 of your life bar per swing, and kill you in less than 10 seconds.

    DMD mode is all about patience, abusing every ability your style has to offer, knowing how to maximize the damage you can do in a short amount of times via combos, and ... yeah dying a lot. This is true in dmc 1 and espeically true in dmc3.

    Devil may cry was built around dante ... hes a key ingrediant. It's gonna kinda be like MGS 2 where you played as Raiden instead of Snake. He'll just be around ... saving the day.

    The most fantastic enemy that has come out of the Devil May Cry series is the Shadow. I haven't met someone yet who doesn't agree with me on that. It feels like an enemy with personality and not just a mindless doll/demon (although it has demon in it, of course). I wish it would have returned in Devil May Cry 3, but it did not. And so I shall hope for a return in the sequel.

    Devil May Cry was the best in the field of learning what to do in what situation. It truly required perseverence and practice (And a keen eye for detail </Detective Conan>). It wasn't afraid to slam you around until you got it right, and the telegraphs made attacks less randomized. It made things more your fault. I find this is less true in the prequel. It's present in bosses (most of the time) and with some of the enemies. And if you managed to defeat them with style, more power to you.

    Devil May Cry 4 sounds kinda neat. It'll be nice go against Dante for a change, rather than the Vante we got in the prequel special edition.

    DMD is easy, since you will have infinite devil trigger by the time you unlock DMD, plus just memorize your attack execution times and the enemy's, if you remember them, nothing will ever hit you + AFAIk every enemy makes a sound before it attacks = hear sound = dodge, easy =D

    DMD+ inifinte devil trigger+ trickster = way too easy, and if you are good, royal guard will get you through the game with 0 damage, and if you are really good use gunslinger+guns/shotgun, everything blows up, oh and dont concentrate on one enemy on DMD, damage them all a bit, then go for the kill, since they activate devil trigger too after a few of them die.
    =D

    There is no Infinite devil trigger before dante must die mode. You get Super Dante unlocked AFTER beating Dante Must Die mode. There no other way unless you used that one cheat to unlock everything, and if you did that, ya FAIL! Just ruins all the fun ^_^. Plus, its funner to play DMD mode without infinite devil trigger.

    The one mob i am talking about are those piss weak mobs that snipe and run away from you. They shoot blue streaks of energy spears. Then they shoot red ones that take off 1/2 your life or so per shot.

    Final boss on DMD mode makes grown men cry.

    Edit: Special edition is said to be easier, i'm playing the original undedited edition.
