You can't compare the mediocre Devil May Cry franchise to the consistently brilliant God of War series, why would anyone want to play a dreadful game when they can play a masterpiece? God of War >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>x1000000000000000000000>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Devil May Cry.

Without God of War the genre would have been dead years ago. The reason God of War is so beloved by millions, sells so well and constantly receives critical acclaim is because of how amazingly balanced it is and how it excels in all aspects. God of War doesn't do just one thing well, it has the best combat in the genre because it's easy to learn and hard to master and is just a pleasure to play, the story is one of the best in gaming but can be ignored if you just want to have fun doing crazy **** and slashing enemies to bits, the music is breathtakingly beautiful and the graphics are always the best on whatever console it's on. God of War represents the closest the genre is to perfection, people claim that the Japanese franchises have better combat but I believe they're just weeaboos or haven't put in the effort to master God of War's combat, I've played them all and found NG and DMC to be boring and Bayonetta was just button smashing whilst watching cool/interesting things happen on screen which I didn't really feel in control of. God of War has by far the most satisfying combat in the genre which is why so many people love it and why it destroys everything else in the genre in sales, critical acclaim and the sheer amount of fans. And no matter what a few insignificant forum nerds say, one of the things fans love most about God of War, is Kratos himself and his deep, gripping, interesting, epic and memorable story. None of the other hack n' slash games have notable lead character nearly as famous and beloved as Kratos and the story in all the God of War games is constantly brilliant. He's beloved so much to the extent that there's many figures, statues, blade replicas, Kratos masks, posters, T-shirts etc., based on him that sell very well obviously because they bring out new stuff all the time. Not to mention Kratos has cameoed or has been parodied many times in: 1) Heavenly Sword, 2) Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny, 3) Mortal Kombat, 4) LittleBigPlanet 1&2, 5)The Simpsons Game, 6) ModNation Racers, 7) Hot shots Golf, 8) Guitar Hero (theme song) and 9) he was parodied in an episode of the Simpsons. God of War didn't damage the dying genre, it came along and saved it in 2005 from it's rapid decline in relevance, it has since been the unarguable king of the genre of which all other hack n' slash games are measured against. It's not Sony Santa Monica's fault that their masterpieces are admired by other developers and that they're trying to rip them off in an attempt to cash in on God of War's success, so blame those unimaginative, unambitious, lazy developers for abandoning the tiny fan bases they have in order to appeal to God of War fans who aren't interested in frilly nonsense filled Japanese games or straight up half-assed clones.

God of War >>>>>>>>>>>>>>x100000000000>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bayonetta > DMC> NG > Onimusha. Nothing has or ever will come close to God of War, it's the king of the genre by miles. In terms of the best games in the genre, my order would be: God of War III > God of War II > God of War: GOS > God of War> God of War: COO > Castlevania: LOS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dante's Inferno >>>> Bayonetta >>>>>>> all the other rubbish. Funny how God of War 1 & 2 & 3 are the top 3 most critically acclaimed, best-selling and the most beloved games in the genre of all time and its main competitors had so much more time to make great games but failed miserably, Japanese developers and games just suck. I wonder if God of War IV can overtake God of War III as the best-selling and most critically acclaimed game in the genre of all time, cant wait for that game.
