A button Masher's DREAM!
Date of Review: Aug 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: At least rent this, it's not a very long game and is a blast to play
Okay, so we rented this game, and I was a bit leery. I haven't played any of the previous DMC's so I don't know the back story or how much fun they were... but this game was a trip! I am a button masher, I admit it, if things are coming at me with swords, or guns or whatever, my instinct says "Mash all of the buttons and hope something happens!" the good thing about this game is that it works! I was flying all over the place an destroying the bad guys.
So why not a 5 star game? Well the story was a bit convoluted, and the critters I was demolishing with my sword and demon arm were fairly repetitive... but it was a blast. The graphics were very good. The music was heavy metal-ish which didn't bother me because it felt like it went with the game.
Is this a must buy? Not really, but I would at least rent it for a fun time.
Note to parents - There is some language in here I would cringe if my 6 year old heard... and there are some cut scenes that appear to have a lot of sexual innuendo (one actually looked like a lesbian scene) and boobies do bounce on the overly large breasted women in this game. You have been warned.
