Hey gang. I got this on Thursday, just sat down with it last nite. So far, it gets a big
I enjoy the fact that it is just a straight forward action game. Don't get me wrong, I like games with exploration, but sometimes the puzzles/exploration in games like Tomb Raider and -dare I say it- Soul Reaver get too long. I don't like it when I feel I have to wander around to find the next area.
That being said, Devil May Cry reminds me of the great action games of the 8 and 16-bit days. Castlevania, Contra, and so on. This is the first 3D action game that I've enjoyed to the point where the 3D view doesn't feel like a gimmick. (Like Castlevania 64 did, or the Contra games on PSX.)
With this, Silent Hill 2, and Ico recently out, and Metal Gear on the horizon PS2 owners are in for some great gaming.
