It’s one hell of a surreal experience that helps suck you in to Dante’s demonic world with some good looking locales and location. The settings however are truly epic, from the destroyed city to the depths of the Temen-ni-gru tower and beyond. The character models can look a bit rough around the edges but in some ways it actually aids them in looking less than normal and helps to emphasise that you are alone with no one to help you (I’m going straight to prison). The action is fast paced and hard hitting and it looks it. Whilst not the best the PS2 has to offer, it is a very nice looking game, the amount of enemies on screen combined with the amount of special effects that go on every two seconds and the game doesn’t let up one bit. Catering for both action whores and story lovers, the cut scenes (which appear before and after each mission) feature a healthy mix of story and beyond fantastic action.
To put this much story into a game that’s main function is to kick ass and make it look good is a brave move that is superbly executed. Set before the first title DMC3 takes us back into the past before Dante could transform into a demon, and answers a few questions about Dante and his history. Whilst not a bad game, it wasn’t the sequel fans were hoping for, so does DMC3 live up to the original? Well fear not fans, your prayers have been answered, Dante is back on to true ass-kicking demon slaying form that will have you hooked from the word go. Dante is back for the third time in Capcom’s attempt to recapture that core fan base that although loved the first game, loathed the second.
