Regardless, if you find yourself able to keep up with all of the crazy action going on here, then you should probably check to see if you're Sonic the Hedgehog.

We were one of the view people to witness the E3 Video (the one they show behind closed doors) 2 weeks before the E3 event... i'll just tell you - this game is just sick ... and i mean - the game is just great ... (colourful powergame hack and slash)
A SEGA guy told us (okey he told us not to write this, but anyway ...):
The game should not be played after using drugs ... and maybe the game had been developed after the use of drugs ;-)
Did you guys notice that the clothes of the Witch have been made of hair ? And as soon as she uses special attacks her hair is going to be her weapon ? --- yes she's going to be naked ;-)

For some reason the little girl with glasses struck me as completely hilarious. Of course the daughter of glasses-lady would also have glasses.
On another note, this game looks completely ridiculous. I'm pretty bored with over-the-top Japanese fight scenes, and this game looks like it's not comprised of anything else.

"This game doesn't look like it's comprised of anything else" is a better sentence.

"This game looks like it comprises nothing else" is an even better sentence and, as a bonus, is grammatically correct.

Haha. This is why I love joystiq. The commenters are the best.
On a related note: I'm SORRY. I WAS TIRED. Awkward sentences and forgetting the difference between comprised and composed are more common when I'm tired. Which perhaps explains why I did worse on papers I procrastinated on...

Procrastination is just like masturbation, your only f***ing yourself :)

I think this looks fantastic.
Others go on and on about how Japanese developers are irrelevant now. But this shows otherwise. This is a great example of a Japanese developer making a Japanese game instead of trying to copy American games. And it looks like it's good enough in that crazy Japanese way that it should be very successful in Japan and in North America (no idea about Europe, I'm not familiar with their market).
Wow joystiq, your version looks awful. I saw one on a competing site that doesn't have nearly as many compression artifacts.

^Has never tried anything but easy on DMC. Don't tell me you have- if you do, you're a goddamn liar, either because you never did, or because you claim that it took no strategy.
Seriously. You are very, very wrong. DMC was hard as hell. 2 and 4 weren't so much, but 1 and 3 (the highlights of the series) took serious skill.

I'm going to give it one big "Meh".
DMC with boobs? OOH FAST STUFF.
I just... don't care about this game. It's trying so hard to be over the top, insane, sexy, and action packed that it's just.. a clusterfuck.
To me, it looks like someone played No More Heroes and said "I can do better."
Meh.

"Sex sells, but sex doesn't sell good games" is a motto that I follow. It's hilarious how gamers go crazy over games that are built around boobs, but end of getting disappointed. Don't listen to your penis..masturbate or have sex before deciding on making your purchase!

But the action is too much like 98% of Hollywood action movies.

I'd rather play something that doesn't make me feel like I have ADHD.
If this is your thing, awesome. For me? I'd rather my games have substance other than "FAST SHIT BLOWING UP EVERY TEN SECONDS" and "BOOBS AND HAIR AND S&M AND BOOBS".
Looking past boobs and over the top-ness I see a mediocre action game that's going to follow the formula as closely as possible.

If you're not a fan of the action genre, then why even comment? If you are and don't find DMC even remotely interesting then this is not your game. From the creator of DMC 1, 3 and Viewtiful Joe, I expect great things from this title.

Looks two busy to me, but I did notice two things.
1. "Do you like it when she calls you mommy?" Well duh, she's her mother.... Even though they're dressed like it, it's not like it's some bizarre bondage plot line.
2. "The Left Eye will never fall." I know it's wrong, but I found it ironic that they named whatever Left Eye is after the only member of TLC that has actually passed away.

I think you're confusing "having the same name as something" with "naming something after something."

I think you got voted straight to hell because you said the game couldn't get much more Asian. Should have said "much more Japanese".
Evidently there are angry Koreans on Joystiq carrying out a bury campaign.

Oh oh " I never tried", so thats why I dont see the similarities.. and i didnt say somethign about "easy'..but those daetails pops by themselves , dont they?
The only thing difficult on DMC game is to control the camera, is easy to get the wrong enemy/target .. but that happens with msot 3rd person fast paced adventures when you shoot/ slash many on the screen ,

I just wish I was good enough at these games to give a crap. I bought the DMC Trilogy box because of reviews and I hardly even touched it. Is it odd that I have no(almost) problem with Ninja Gaiden? I'm still waiting for Sigma 2.

The character designs turn me off, the dialogue sounds shitty, and the gameplay looks like crap.
