Product Description

Long ago the Dark Knight Sparda rebelled against the dark emperor and waged a one-man war to save humanity. Thousands of years later, a religious organization worships this renowned savior and has taken it upon themselves to rid the world of all evil. Residing in Fortuna, this organization is known as the "Order of the Sword," and is made up of an elite group of "Holy Knights." One day, a young knight named Nero witnesses Sparda's legendary son Dante slaughter his fellow warriors. Has the renowned devil hunter turned his back on mankind? What does thie encounter mean for these two individuals? In Devil May Cry 4, players control the formidable Nero who comes to grips with his newly found power as his beliefs and allegiance are tested. Continuing the legacy of fast paced action synonymous with the series, Devil May Cry 4 pushes the envelope of excellence even further with the inclusion of a new combat system that incorporates Nero's "Devil Bringer, a new feature that has players delivering overwhelming damage to enemies with non-stop combos, while gaining new power for Nero's right arm. With the PlayStation 3 system's advanced graphical capabilities, high definition visuals and intricate detail come to life as players explore new and exotic locales. Amazing visual effects and dynamic action coupled with a complex storyline, provides the very cool, slick and stylish attitude that only a Devil May Cry game can deliver. New active style change system for Dante allows him to switch styles and weapons on the fly, producing crazy combo possibilities ESRB Rated M for Mature

A solid addition to the DMC series

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 7, 2013

Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Edition: StandardVerified Purchase

Devil May Cry 4 is a nice installment in the series, and it has everything one would expect from the DMC franchise. Flashy, anime-style combat, guns AND swords (like peanut butter and jelly, they just work well together), tons of monstrous demons and last but not least, the classic Dante, with all of his corny jokes, innuendo and lighthearted devil-hunting style.

This game excels in making the enemies huge and detailed, the battles intense and satisfying, and the scenery lush and vibrant, whether in a frozen gothic castle or a demon-infested jungle. They really pulled off the difficult task of creating a sequel with enough new things to make it interesting and unique, while at the same time holding true to the roots of the series.

Dante is present in this game, but for all intents and purposes this game revolves around Nero, a newcomer to the series. Although his revolver and sword don't have the same variety and flexibility as Dante's, he is still a solid character and I would love to see him in more games in the future.

This game has a few bad points, but they are so small it doesn't even make an impact on my rating. I found the game to be a little too short, and I wish there were more missions. Also about halfway through the game, you end up retracing your steps and visiting the same locations over again.

Final verdict: Awesome, great story with hidden and surprising elements, classy combat, near-perfect graphics. Buy this one, it is worth it!

Fun to play, but not the challenge that I expected

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 21, 2016

Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Edition: StandardVerified Purchase

I've been a huge fan of the first Devil May Cry game since it came out when I was 9- it's probably my favorite childhood game. I beat the original game on DMD die mode about a year ago for the first time, and to celebrate I decided to get the HD Collection and DMC4 to see how the sequels measured up. I played them all in order and beat each one, except DMC4 because my PS3 is currently bricked (so know going into this review that I haven't beaten the game yet). I wasn't a fan of DMC2; it was pretty generic and mildly entertaining at best, plus it was extremely easy. DMC3 was much better in terms of enjoyment and difficulty and I liked it nearly as much as the original game.

As for DMC4, I found it a lot of fun... but I wouldn't put it on the same level as Devil May Cry or DMC3. It was just too easy, compared to the other two- not that it was the same experience that you get with DMC2, which I felt I could have played in my sleep... I'd call it about average for an action game in terms of difficulty- maybe slightly harder than average. There were a lot of fancy new mechanics (most of them involving Nero's demon arm), and while they were sort of neat to begin with they started to feel a bit stale after a while and I started to miss the simplicity that the combat had in the original game. If the game had been more difficult and less focused on style alone, the extra mechanics might have been really cool, but as it was they felt sort of useless after the initial novelty wore off. I also did not like Nero as a main character nearly as much as Dante; his serious, moody character really cut down on the campiness that I enjoyed so much from the first game- in my personal opinion, a Devil May Cry game is best when it doesn't take itself too seriously. I don't count off too much for that, though (DMC3 took itself extremely seriously but I didn't really mind)- I don't know of anyone who plays any of the Devil May Cry games for the riveting plot.

That said, I still enjoyed playing the game very much. The core gameplay mechanics are as intuitive, fluid and fun as ever, and while I'm not a big fan of the way the series started prioritizing flashy moves over real difficulty, I must admit that the flashiness does have its appeal. The grading system seems to be more difficult this time around; I had a very hard time getting "Stylish" in combat and received lower grades on easier difficulty settings than on any of the previous games. The graphics are good, and the plot isn't awful except that I found Nero pretty hard to care about. If this wasn't a Devil May Cry game, I wouldn't have complained nearly as much, and its biggest failing is really just not measuring up to the previous games in terms of difficulty. Originally I was going to give this game 3 stars, but after writing the review I've realized that most of my issues with the game have little to do with the game itself and a lot to do with the expectations set by previous games. As such, I've modified my rating to 4 stars.

If you're a hardcore fan of the earlier games, you will probably find this installation disappointingly average in terms of difficulty, but other than that there's really nothing wrong with it. I would recommend this game to anyone who found the earlier games too difficult, as well as to long-time fans of the series who don't play it solely to get their faces smashed in every time they aren't perfect.

A fun romp hindered by a few flaws...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 2, 2013

Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Edition: StandardVerified Purchase

I won't go into a massive in-depth review because, honestly, you can find better ones elsewhere. The short and sweet verdict I have for you today is that Devil May Cry 4 is a funsauce game and worth every penny of the $20 I payed to buy it here, if not necessarily the $60 it originally sold for. You'll often find players complaining about the switch to Nero rather than Dante as a main protagonist, the lower number of weapons and bosses compared to Devil May Cry 3's impressive lineup of both, or the repeating environments in the second half.

The only items of those that are *actually* problems are the repeating environments and the bosses. The entire second half of the game suffers for the fact that one is simply made to backtrack through all of the areas from the first half of the game as a different character (in this case, as series protagonist Dante rather than DMC4 protagonist Nero), with very little in the way of new material to make up for the repetition. Rather than the impressive roster of fun and unique boss demons given us in DMC3, were are given a series of four main bosses that repeat over both haves of the game, along with a few (mostly in Nero's section of the game) that only happen once. To be fair, the bosses in this game *are* are pretty awesome, even if most of them don't feel as unique or inventive as those of its immediate predecessor.

I believe this flaws are balanced out by the overall quality of the game; DMC4 is a very fun, if somewhat dated, action game, and it is my humblest opinion that the lineup of non-boss enemies (excluding the hated Blitz) is the best in the series. Whether one is playing through the game's twenty story missions or just ripping it up in Bloody Palace (a timed survival mode where one gains more time to fight with by dispatching enemies quickly and stylishly), whether one is yanking all enemies into combo range as Nero or busting out insane, convoluted multi-weapon/multi-style combos as the iconic Dante, Devil May Cry is seldom so fun to blaze through as it is in this title. That the visuals and soundtrack both stick out as amazing (despite the craptastic shadow effects that stick out like nobody's business in the jungle area) are only the icing on that cake.

I recommend Devil May Cry 4 almost unreservedly. I just wish it hadn't been so lolrushedgottagetitout4newsystem. It could have been something truly amazing if they'd taken the time to make it so.

Saturday morning cartoon carnage

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on October 27, 2012

There is barely any story to this game. Something about angels vs demons and magic or something. The main character goes around slashing and shooting very brightly colored and completely non threatening looking enemies until they fall over. All the bad guys look misshapen and like toys, and the arenas all follow the same dull repedetive process. A sheild suddenly goes off, sealing off the area, kill all the monsters till the sheild goes away, and repeat. In fact half the game has you going back over the levels a second time, fighting all the bosses again, till you get extremely bored of it.
