So, if this was Devil May Cry and Dante had boobs, that's it you've played it, but don't just ignore this game, it's actually much more fast-paced than DMC and it's terribly entertaining, there are tons of references to other projects that Hideki Kamiya has worked on before (there is a reference to 3 beautiful women named Claire [RE2] Trish [DMC] and Silvia [Viewtiful Joe]) as well as one of the times you meet the vendor he offers the memorable quote, "What are you buying?" in that raspy voice we all came to love in RE4 and then he follows up the line with, "I heard that in a video game once heheh". The only Reason I didn't give it a 10 is because the story(?) almost didn't make sense, by the end a lot of it falls into place but it still leads me to wonder if this game is really just an excuse for Hideki Kamiya to make fun of himself and his earlier works. The combat is really tight and technical, identical to DMC, and the Dialogue and Taunts are very humorous, also identical to DMC. This game is also very gorgeous, not because you get to stare at the protagonist's butt as she walks around but because the environments are memorable and very detailed. The game as a whole has a lot to offer and is definitely worth picking up, especially DMC fans out there, I've recommended it to everyone I know!
