This meal is nearly all meat, with a shorter, five to six hour runtime: a brisker pace than the 10 hour plus future franchise romps. Devil May Cry is just a clean game through and through.

There’s only a few weapons (both ranged and melee) to choose from, and quick-swapping isn’t quite a thing yet, but as I noted previously, the pointed focus is welcome. The fighting game-inspired system is a blast, with quick gap-closers (buy Stinger quickly) and plenty of ways to rush down and juggle your foes. Here we get our first look at a cocksure but not extremely over-the-top (he isn’t riding missiles just yet) Dante, and the pointed Gothic focus here (as well as an emphasis on a singular location) rules.Īction-wise, Devil May Cry still wipes the floor with most standard genre fare. Sure it’s not nearly as impressive as Devil May Cry 3, 4, or 5 on a technical level, but those are completely different games with different narratives. But those folks are going to say the same thing about most PS2-era games: how much you can stomach some of Devil May Cry‘s antiquated action mechanics and fixed camera angles is up to your tastes. I believe the original Devil May Cry holds up on its own merits. Originally billed as a Resident Evil project, legendary producer/director Hideki Kamiya and his team morphed it into something new entirely, and it’s taken many forms over the years, a few of which have been polarizing (or in the case of Devil May Cry 2, universally reviled).Īlthough its format is questionable (more on that later), it’s always a treat when a new generation gets to experience the classic that started it all. You could write an entire book about how Devil May Cry was made. It’s $20: the price of the entire original trilogy on other platforms
