okay... so the review board is going slow as usual.
anyways, here's another two-line review by me.
Devil May Cry.
It's amazing how FEW people know about this game. to give you just the basic facts, the bio hazard creators worked on this game for FOUR YEARs (or they claim they did), and after playing the demo, i can only say that i can believe whatever they say now.
for somebody who personally dislikes the biohazard series like me, devil may cry is one helluva pleasant surprise. the action in it is like the coolest thing i've seen since... hmm... The riot cannon in einhander.
i can't say for sure how good the game actually is, because i've only played the demo, which was like... 20 minutes, but i CAN say this for sure.
if the action in code veronica or dino crisis 2 weren't enough for you.... or if you thought onimusha's counter slash was the coolest in platform action, wait till you play devil may cry.
"action" has finally reached "the next stage".
in the meantime, if you have time and bandwidth, try to connect to the hotline server. i'll try to post some mpegs from the demo.
... shit,... i realize i haven't said much about the actual game.... again.

I haven't seen any moving video of the game. Is it one of those pre-rendered background games, or are the backgrounds fully interactive 3D?

This game looks cool. TheGIA also has some movies. It's looking pretty good. This may reach must-buy status soon.

I downloaded the 2 movies from the Hotline Server (Thank you Bo.. ) and I must say it really looks impressive.

I love the footage I have seen of this game...
any game where you can shoot an opponent in midair (that you just launched skyward for the occasion) or fire lightning bolts from a double-barrelled shotgun (that you wield with 1 hand!) just wins WAY too many style points...
Man I can't wait...
