The game had no reputation, DMC2 and DMC3 were both poor compared to DMC and I only really saw average comments in regards to DMC4.
DMC 4 is great, gameplay is excellent and no different from any other DMC, think those that don't like it was expecting something different. Me personally am glad they diddn't change too much.
DMC is always a game that's set itself out in 3 departments, style, locale and bosses, I felt DMC (1) was superior for the latter and by DMC3 the whole style thing wasn't as cool or innovative as it once was. I couldn't help but think it was the same thing with worse environments.I've always viewed them to both be more or less on par with each other. DMC 3 has the better combat mechanics and enemy AI and DMC 1 had the better setting/atmosphere and better bosses.
I know its your opinion, but I'm just curious to why you think its poor in comparison.
Can't wait for my rental to come through from swap game, hopefully it'll come tuesday, it's at the top of my list.
Swap game is back to it's best now, 3 day turnaround again at last!

Yeah its hard to change styles when you're so used to the devil arm. Dante makes it a lot easier to get higher style though, switching weapons and fighting styles just gives you more variety.
