Devil May Cry 4 Critic Reviews
Well we finally have a Devil May Cry game for the Xbox 360, and with the producer of the original DMC and also the classic Resident Evil 4 along for the ride, it’s a positive start for DMC4, but does this bring anything new to the table or is this just...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at WonderwallWeb
Devil May Cry fans know what they expect from the action series: they look for fast paced action sequences that require solid timing instead of button mashing. They expect large scale battles with insane bosses and hordes of monsters that barely give the...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at IGN
is the lighting model, which produces shadows that look absolutely terrible. The music is generally great, but the track that plays during combat sounds like a reject from a Ministry album from the early 90s. The voice actors do as good a job as you coul...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at GameTrailers

Its gorgeous trappings, addictive combat, and well-balanced difficulty make it the most satisfying DMC in years, and Dante's such a killer character that you'll actually want to tackle the game on a tougher difficulty in order to fully explore his...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at 1UP
While you'll find that the repetitive environments and strange puzzle sections are turn-offs, there's still a fine game here in Devil May Cry 4....read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at AtomicGamer
The original Devil May Cry was a revolution. It introduced action gamers to a whole new level of hack and slash insanity way, way back in 2001. Its fast pace, focus on combos and style, and its punishing nature set it apart as something different and...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at Jolt UK

Bigger style combos, a higher mission grade to obtain, a faster speed run through each level... not to mention just trying to survive it all. It's the type of replayability th...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at Official Xbox Magazine UK
It was around three years ago that Devil May Cry 3 arrived on the PS2. Wrapped up in a beautifully gothic aesthetic, it offered one of the most stylistic third-person shoot-‘em-ups imaginable. Not only did it look brilliant, it also made you feel pretty...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at NZGamer
With a little more effort, DMC4 could have been a genuine contender for 2008 game of the year. As it is it's a brilliant, addictive, just plain cool hack and slash action game which goes some way to bringing the series back to its initial lustre....read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at VideoGamer

during boss fights, but even then, once their attack patterns become clear, they don’t present much of a problem. It’s too bad that the hidden difficulty option (called Son of Sparda) isn’t open off the bat, because that's the only time that conserv...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at GameTap
You'll probably remember Devil May Cry 3 for the PlayStation 2 as being an unfairly difficult game, yet one that rewarded your patience with a slew of high-quality action.

get with the dumb humor of the cutscenes. It's a good game -- not a great one, but very, very good all the same. It'll put up stiff resistance in portions, but the challenge is more forgiving than prior titles, and if you want to ramp things up a notch, y...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at Destructoid
When this game was first announced by Capcom back in March, 2007 the internet had a mini-explosion. Capcom defended itself by saying it wanted its game “to reach as wide an audience as possible.” That sounded fair enough to me, but various sections of...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at Strategy Informer
It's almost three years since the last Devil May Cry, with its self-consciously angsty Emo shapes. Despite its awful music and dialogue, we were happy to dish out 8/10 for what was one of the best hackandslash fighting systems around. It...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at Eurogamer
I nearly gave up on Devil May Cry 4. Despite the outstanding visuals that try to convince you that this is a modern game, much of the gameplay wouldn't be out of place in something from one or even two generations ago. Still, the overall package is worth...read the complete Devil May Cry 4 review at kikizo
