Devil May Cry

It seems Hollywood can't avoid the craze with adapting video games into feature length films with kick ass effects involved. . .

Okay so we've been given films like Mortal Kombat 1 & 2 and Resident Evil are strong justifications with comic books already firmly establishing close ties with dominating the big screen (i.e. Blade, X-Men, The Crow, Spiderman and Matrix).

The game is more than what any typical game playing die-hard fan could wish for: stunning graphics, killer moves and one beautiful gorgeous looking babe named Trish. But then again it's only a game or is it?

Bring on the movie, that's all I'm concerned with right now. Just hope someone like Mark Dacascos could be considered for the lead role as the character Dante.

For the meantime anyone a fan of Resident Evil will not be dissapointed at all as this is "must-own" video game of the millennium.

"Lets Rock Baby" - Dante 10/10

Devil May Cry is as much as a stylish thriller as it is an intense action game. There are many graphical nuances that enhance the experience as well, such as entering a mirror and having this alternate world appear blurry. Numerous attacks are portrayed with ultra fast and smooth animations, contributing if nothing else to how much fun the game is to play and how much fun these battles are to be involved in. Dante can also hover in the air after a jump and fire his handguns, gaining even more bonus points in the 'damn that's really cool' category.

Unfortunately the game ends a bit quickly. The game can easily be completed in under ten hours, longer only if the player wants to complete the game on all the difficulty settings and earn the highest ranking on each mission. Otherwise, you're looking at a game that will satisfy most with only a rental. However, it's the type of game everyone should have in their collection. It's one of the few elite games that have graced the PS2 so far.

Devil May Cry Rocks. 10/10

Apart from the voice acting so bad it's perfect,the simple but effective combat,the bosses either being unfair or pretty good and the camera but overall dmc 1 is a classic that should be remembered fondly for years. Although a remake would be nice. Without getting into spoilers the story is pretty good it's simple and is barely the focus. The main focus is the gameplay which is the main gimmick. As a revolutionary hack and slash it features a mixture of melee and guns combat. For the time it was simple and great but there is one problem,the camera is sometimes painful. Also the music is perfect. Tldr 8/10 I recommend.

MANY video game movies have failed, as mentioned before. But it is only because they are picking the wrong games. This is a MUST for movie consideration. But another thing about video game movies is they just dont cast the right people, so I'm hoping if they DO make DMC a movie, cast the right actors!

An absolute gem of a game. The gothic and demonic tone and style of this game reminds me of something that would be plucked out of a Clive Barker story. The combat is fluid as all get out and the story is pretty good, too; what keeps you here is the combat and environments, though.
