What a brilliant game!
Got it yesterday, played through some levels and I can tell you that it is damn fine.
Internet sites like Gamespot and IGN gave it poor reviews and I really dont understand why.
New moves, new characters, new story, new enemies...
I couldnt ask for more.
Easily going to be one of the best games, for the PS2, this year.
Anyone want to know anything specific?

I've heard that what Capcom were trying to do with DMC was recreate the old school style of gaming, where bosses had set attack patterns and you had to time things perfectly to survive and all that. Edge of the seat action if you like... and they did an incredible job. I love those shadow cats that turn into big spikes! It's like jump, batter the fire button, jump, batter the fire button... repeat frantically until you fall out of your chair.
But it can be extremely frustrating, because it also does the old school thing of giving you a couple of chances and then it's back to the start.
As for DMC2... they lost it I think. It's all style and no substance. And it doesn't even look as good. It's still great, but I would only get it if you haven't played the first one. Otherwise you'll be disappointed.

PSw say that DMC2 is good, but not as good as the original. Still worth owning though, I just wish Capcom had chosen had different release date, as it coinsides with the release of Dead to Rights and Silent Hill 3.
Damn, now I have to decide which out of the three I want more, and that's an easy decision to make.

DMC2 is better than 1. But theyre both excellent games.
