DMC has a big fanbase. Some of those fans review games.How DMC4 got an 8 here and an 8.4 averag ...
It might have the same gameplay, but people still like it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
the cutscenes/dialogue is always like that in every DMC. But i'll admit, i didnt enjoy DMC4 as much as i thought i would.
I completely agree, A would seem a more reasonable score.

[spoiler] Slamdunk! :P [/spoiler]

I largely agree. The game was fine, it wasnt bad or anything, but combat can still be resolved simply button mashing, and the last half of the game was just the first half backwards. The boss battles were GORGOUS though (the fire demon was amazing to look at).
Sorry to hear you didn't like it but I personally would be disappointed if the took out the cheesy dialog and over the top cutscenes, or tried to mess with the combat too much. but I can see where your coming from.
The cheesiness is part of the appeal. It wouldn't be a DMC game without it.

[/QUOTE] I didn't play any DMC though, i saw my sister play the first one and i loved it, the second title was too much and i turned off the third by the first cutscene so i don't know if the ''corny'' cutscenes were really trying to be ''corny'', to me they were just trying a bit too hard to be ''cool''.
It's not as challenging as Devil May Cry 3. I think it deserved a 7.5. 6.0 is a bit harsh. The backtracking was huge letdown, but the combat was violent and fun as usual.

I think the score was spot on.
It felt like I was playing a PS1 game with upgraded graphics and sound. Everything about the gameplay just felt tired and rehashed. What is it with Capcom and these castles that seem to always have super elaborate traps that can only be overcome by a particular weapon that only the hero can use, which seem to always be in a place where he can find them so that he can conveniently use it?

Stop crying because you fail at it. lmao @ playing human mode and not even finishing the game. Its AAA for me. The game is at 1 million+ on PS3 so apparently alot of ppl love it ;)

DMC4 is my first step into the series and i love it. I've clocked up over 120 hours on it, attempting to beat the bloody palace now without super characters, managed to reach Dante twice and both times died.The story is amusing, it's not very good but the diolog i thought was good, witty/cheesey/funny/lame/ it was well done and most importantly it was delibrate. The backtrakcing is lame and i would hope it's not something seen in all the series but all of that can be forgotten because the combat is what makes the game. I can't explain it to well it's just..the ability to go trickster, teleport across a room, appear above them, do a flying kick into them and then pull out my sword, flip them in the air and keep them floating with my guns that i find incredibly awesome and i just love playing about with the combat,trying new things, pulling off some cool stuff that's what keeps me coming back.
