And this proves that capcom using extras to milk its fans is a failure

RE4 for the GC the only real way to play RE4.

Still gonna pick it up though since it's cheaper.

Isn't it funny how NGB retained the same score as its predecessor and DMC3 SE doesnt, even though its better. Good on ya gamespot!

well i just skimmed the reviews for both and they said DMC ce has only extra features that feel like they were thrown on and the combat was made ez-er. for NGB they said tons of new features that add to the orgional and they didnt make it ez. so it seems that of the two NGB was just better.

It is also 20 bucks.

According to gamespot DMC3: SE didn't really improve on the original (DMC 3). While Ninja Gaiden basically perfected an already amazing game, and added tons of features.

I gotta say, it's kinda lame that they just took Vergil and threw him right into Dante's missions instead of giving him his own story. Still, I might just pick this version up for the survival mode.

Yes, but look at what other reviewers think. http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/devilmaycry3specialedition/review.html?mode=web
With the exception of one stupid site they all reviewed DMC3 SE 9 or over/10.

I already got it but im going to say this. ITS NOT WORTH IT IF YOU ALREADY HAVE THE ORIGINAL.

Oh and I cant believe that Capcom decreased the difficulty, the original DMC3 version was fine on its own!

this is a very strange game indeed

the difficulty kept it from being AAA , and now its too easy , so they flopped it more

i think if this special edition version came out as the dmc3 game it would have been AAA

I totally agree. The DMC3: WAHH! I COULDNT BEAT THE ORIGINAL SO IM GOING WHINE TO CAPCOM Edition is probably one of the most disappointing addition to any game yet.

Grek Kasavin is an intellectually dishonest hack.  There is no two ways about it.

GregK:  DMC3 is too hard.  I can't get past the starter levels.  They should have made it easier!!!  No AAA for you!

GregK:  DMC3SE is too easy.  The challenge is reduced so the game feels worthless!!!  The difficulty of the original version (that I reduced the score for because of it made me cry) made more rewarding(!!!!).  Lower AA!!!

This is actually pretty hilarious.

I had a good feeling it would not outscore the original.  Remakes usually don't score higher than the original - though they can still score well.

That's something that I found a little weird while reading the review.

Greg K on DMC3: "Teh degree of difficulty nearly ruins it!"

Greg K on DMC3 SE: "Teh easier difficulty makes it less rewarding!"

you might be right , but if this game was presented to Greg the first time around he would have loved it and gave it AAA

How often do you see a remake/special edition that scores LOWER SOLELY BY THE FACT THAT IT SPECIFICALLY ADDRESSED THE REVIEWERS BIGGEST COMPLAINT ABOUT THE ORIGINAL??

Then said reviewer goes on to lament that "reward" that the difficulty of the previous installment provided... which, of course, was conveniently left out of his original review... because apparently he sucks at the game so how would he know anyway.

This is truly groundbreaking stuff.

Maybe Greg was just copying IGN, anyway, whose review pretty much reads:

"DMC3: SE does everything better than the original, and to reward these improvements, we're lowering the score .6 points... you can thank us later!"

He did mention it breifly in his review of the original, but for the most part all he talked about was how it kicked his ass in the beginning. Lately his reviews have just been weird, like giving Perfect Dark Zero AAA because of "Teh deatailed weapon modles!"

The Good:Features a compelling and fairly well developed new player character, Vergil; highly responsive, fluid, well-designed combat system makes for great action; much more reasonable difficulty level than the original version; various bonus extras not found in the original version, like a survival mode; budget price. The Bad:The bonus extras aren't fully fleshed out and feel like they were thrown in; since combat isn't as gruelingly difficult, it's also somewhat less rewarding. With all the good stuff, why the hell didnt it get a 9.0 at least?

Devil May Cry 3's score got docked because it was too hard.  Now they're saying that because it's not as hard, it's not as rewarding. Make up your mind, Gamespot.

Agreed. He says that the original was too hard and took off points for that. Now, he says that DMC: SE is too easy. It GIVES you the option to use the infinite yellow orb system. Plus it's only $20 and look at the pros he has listed. You would think that it would get AAA but no, he docks .6 points off.:evil: Greg is a strange man.

What difficulty modes are available from the beginning of the game? If hard mode is unlocked from the start (which is apparently normal mode from the previous release?), his review really is ridiculous.
